The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the Schedule) summarizes the expenditures of the federal award activity of Fresno Metro Ministry (the Organization) under programs of the federal government for the year ended December 31, 2023. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U. S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Organization, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position or cash flows for the Organization. For purposes of the Schedule, federal awards include all grants and contracts entered into directly or indirectly between the Organization, agencies, and departments of the federal and state government. The awards are classified into major program categories in accordance with the provisions of the Uniform Grant Guidance.
Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in Title 2 U. S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. Negative amounts shown on the Schedule represent adjustments or credits made in the course of business to amounts reported as expenditures in prior years.
The Organization’s has elected to use the ten percent federal de minimis cost rate allowed under Title 2 U. S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance.
Consistent with management’s policy, federal awards and other grants are recorded in respective revenue categories. As result, the amount of total federal awards expended on the Schedule does not agree to total grant revenue on the Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Assets as presented in the Organization’s report on the audited financial statements.

Finding Details

Finding 2023 - 001 Reporting (L) Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls over Compliance Identification of the Federal Program: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; ALN 93.268 Criteria or Specific Requirement: Recipients of federal awards must establish internal controls over reports that are prepared and submitted. Finding/Condition: Pursuant to the reporting requirement set forth by the Department of Health and Human Services, the Organization is required to file the quarterly Federal Financial Report (FFR) within 30 days of the end of the quarter and submit the single audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the sooner of 30 days of the issuance of the audit report or nine months after the end of the Organization’s fiscal year. During our reporting period, we were unable to determine the submission of the quarterly reports and noted also that the audit was not completed and filed timely. Cause: First year with federal grant reporting requirements. Effect: The delay in submitting the required reports may lead to the granting agency imposing temporary restrictions on the drawdown of grant funds process. Questioned Cost: None Recommendation: The Organization should establish reporting deadlines so that reports are filed accurately and on a timely basis.
