Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal award activity of American Society for Engineering Education (the Society) under programs of the federal government for the year ended September 30, 2023. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations 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 Society, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the Society.
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 Society has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rates as allowed under the Uniform Guidance, but rather the rates established directly with the respective federal agencies.

Finding Details

During our audit we noted that there were instances where billing for expenses associated with federal grants was not carried out in a timely manner. This delay was evidenced by the time laps between the completion of services and the request for reimbursement to agencies.
During the audit, it was identified that the Society did not retain sufficient documentation to verify participant eligibility for the program. In some cases, participant profile documents were missing or incomplete, limiting the ability to confirm compliance with eligibility requirements.
