Questioned Cost and Noncompliance 2 CFR ? 400.1 gives regulatory effect for the U.S. Department of Agriculture to the Office of Management and Budget guidance, as supplemented by this part. This part adopts in the OMB guidance in subparts A through F of 2 CFR part 200. 2 CFR ? 200.430(a) provides that costs of compensation are allowable to the extent that they satisfy the specific requirements of this part, and that the total compensation for individual employees: 1. Is reasonable for the services rendered and conforms to the established written policy of the non-Federal entity consistently applied to both Federal and non-Federal activities; 2. Follows an appointment made in accordance with a non-Federal entity?s laws and/or rules or written policies and meets the requirements of Federal statute, where applicable; and 3. Is determined and supported as provided in paragraph (i) of this section, Standards for Documentation of Personnel Expenses, when applicable. Furthermore, Ohio Department of Education Grants Management Guidance 2014-002, revised on June 15, 2016 and August 29, 2019, further clarifies these requirements. The type of documentation required is based on the funding source and/or cost objective: ? Semi-annual certifications are allowed when an employee's compensation is funded by only one Federal grant. An employee funded by a federal grant and the General fund would fall under this category. ? Time and effort documentation is used when an employee's compensation is funded by more than one federal grant. ? The substitute system of collecting time and effort is used when an employee?s compensation is funded by more than one grant. Due to a deficiency in internal policies and procedures over compliance, the food service director, who is partially paid by contract from the Child Nutrition Cluster funds, did not obtain semi-annual certifications for payroll and benefit expenditures which resulted in Child Nutrition Cluster actual expenditures of $25,794 not being supported with semi-annual certifications or time sheets and will be considered a questioned cost. Based on the above guidance, the employee should have completed semi-annual certifications as their compensation was funded by a single Federal grant. The District should implement control procedures to verify that all District employees who perform work for federal cost objectives complete semi-annual certifications for single source funded personnel and time and effort documentation for payroll charges for split funded personnel. The documentation should be signed by each individual employee or a supervisor who has firsthand knowledge of the information contained in the documentation
