Notes to SEFA

The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the Schedule) includes the federal award activity of International Fund for Animal Welfare, Inc. (the Organization) under the programs of the Federal government for the year ended June 30, 2024. 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 assets, or cash flows of the Organization.
Expenditures reported on the schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement.
The Organization has not elected to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
Subsequent to the issuance of the Organization’s original schedule of expenditures of federal awards for the year ended June 30, 2024, the Organization identified an error in the presentation of that schedule. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards improperly excluded the amounts passed through to sub-recipients from the total federal expenditures reported and was restated to correct the expenditures previously reported for Federal Assistance Listing Numbers 98.001 and 19.705. The effects of the restatement on federal expenditures reported in the accompanying schedule are summarized as follows: Federal Grantor/Pass-through Grantor/Program or Cluster Title Federal Assistance Listing Number Total Federal Expenditures as previously issued Adjustment Total Federal Expenditures as restated Total U.S. Agency for International Development 98.001 $ 1,059,268 $ 143,937 $ 1,203,205 Total U.S. Department of State 19.705 $ 855,834 $ 166,877 $1,022,711 Total expenditures of federal awards $2,215,185 $310,814 $2,525,999

Finding Details

Finding 2024-001: Preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Material weakness/other matter noncompliance Identification of federal programs: • ALN 98.001: USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas awarded by the U.S Agency for International Development, specifically contract 72061522CA00003 for fiscal year 2024. • ALN 19.705: Trans-National Crime awarded by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs, specifically contract SINLEC21GR3379, and the indirect award passed though the Humane Society of the United States for fiscal year 2024. Criteria: The Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.510b) requires that the auditee (typically a non-federal entity receiving federal funds) must prepare a Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards for the period covered by its financial statements which must include the total Federal Awards expended as determined in accordance with 2 CFR 200.502. Condition: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards for the year ended June 30, 2024 improperly excluded the awards provided to sub-recipients from the total expenditures reported for the federal awards for ALN 98.001 USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas and ALN 19.705 Trans-National Crime. Cause: There was an error in the formula that linked the supporting schedule to the schedule of expenditures of federal awards. Effect: Not in compliance with the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.510b). There could be impacts on future funding. Questioned costs: None. Context: Total federal awards for ALN 98.001 USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas improperly excluded subrecipient awards from the total in the amount of $143,937. Total federal awards for ALN 19.705 Trans-National Crime improperly excluded subrecipient awards from the total in the amount of $166,877. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review the schedule of expenditures of federal awards prior to issuance. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Management agrees with the finding. See corrective action plan.
