Notes to SEFA

Title: Note 2 - Non-monetary Federal Program Accounting Policies: Basis of Presentation - The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards includes the federal grant activity of the Prattsburgh Central School District and is presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting. The information in the 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). Therefore, some amounts presented in the schedule may differ from amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of the basic financial statements. Basis of Accounting - The basis of accounting varies by Federal program consistent with underlying regulations pertaining to each program. The amounts reported as Federal expenditures generally were obtained from the appropriate Federal financial reports for the applicable program and periods. The amounts reported in these Federal financial reports are prepared from records maintained for each program, which are periodically reconciled with the District's financial reporting system. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: Indirect Cost Rate - The District has elected not to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance in the current year. The accompanying Prattsburgh Central School District is the recipient of a non-monetary federal award program. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the District reported in the Schedule of Federal Awards $19,674 of donated commodities at fair market value received and disbursed.

Finding Details

Adjusting Journal Entries and Required Disclosures to the Financial Statements Year ended June 30, 2022 Condition and Criteria: During the current year, adjusting journal entries, along with footnote disclosures were proposed by the auditors and accepted by the District to properly reflect the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Some of the adjustment and footnotes were related to recording retirement accruals, capitals project funds and converting to the full accruals method for government-wide financial statement purposes. In addition, a draft of the financial statements was prepared by the auditors. Cause and Effect: AU-C Section 265 entitled Communicating Internal Control Related Matters Identified in an Audit, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) considers the need for significant adjusting journal entries and assistance when preparing the financial statements to be indicative of an internal control deficiency. Without this assistance, the potential risk exists of the District?s financial statements not conforming to generally accepted accounting principles. Auditor?s Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and in the future, under the new pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements. School District?s Response: The District has received, reviewed and approved all journal entries, footnote disclosures and draft financial statements proposed for the current year audit and will continue to review similar information in future years. Further, the District believes it has a thorough understanding of these financial statements and the ability to make informed judgments based on these financial statements.

Auditor?s Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and in the future, under the new pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements. School District?s Response: The District has received, reviewed and approved all journal entries, footnote disclosures and draft financial statements proposed for the current year audit and will continue to review similar information in future years. Further, the District believes it has a thorough understanding of these financial statements and the ability to make informed judgments based on these financial statements.
Adjusting Journal Entries and Required Disclosures to the Financial Statements Year ended June 30, 2022 Condition and Criteria: During the current year, adjusting journal entries, along with footnote disclosures were proposed by the auditors and accepted by the District to properly reflect the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Some of the adjustment and footnotes were related to recording retirement accruals, capitals project funds and converting to the full accruals method for government-wide financial statement purposes. In addition, a draft of the financial statements was prepared by the auditors. Cause and Effect: AU-C Section 265 entitled Communicating Internal Control Related Matters Identified in an Audit, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) considers the need for significant adjusting journal entries and assistance when preparing the financial statements to be indicative of an internal control deficiency. Without this assistance, the potential risk exists of the District?s financial statements not conforming to generally accepted accounting principles. Auditor?s Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and in the future, under the new pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements.
