Finding Details

Federal Expenditure Tracking (Emergency Food Assistance Program - Food Commodities) Criteria: Management is responsible for maintaining accurate records and implementing controls to properly calculate and report federal awards and expenditures in accordance with program requirements and the Uniform Guidance. Condition: The Company did not correctly calculate federal awards and expenditures for the Emergency Food Assistance Program (Food Commodities) based on the weights of food received and distributed for the program. Cause: The miscalculation resulted from errors in applying the appropriate commodity weights when determining the federal award amounts and related expenditures. Effect: Federal expenditures reported on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) were originally calculated incorrectly. Recommendation: Management should strengthen internal controls over the calculation and tracking of federal expenditures by ensuring commodity weights are accurately applied. This may include implementing a standardized calculation process, reconciling record of food received to supporting documentation, and performing supervisory review before amounts are reported on the SEFA.
