2023-002 Compliance and Internal Control Systems Over Allowable Costs/Cost Principles and Cash Management - U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Refugee and Entrant Assistance State/Replacement Designee Administered Programs, Assistance Listing Number 93.566 Criteria: As defined in 45 CFR 75, the auditee is required to maintain a system of internal control over compliance designed to provide reasonable assurance that federal award transactions executed are in compliance with the terms and conditions of the federal award, including all allowable indirect and fringe cost rates. Condition: The Center requested indirect costs in excess of expenses incurred. Cause: The Center utilized a historical process to calculate and request indirect costs for reimbursement that was not updated to account for the increase in federal grant awards during the fiscal year. Effect: Reimbursement requests related to indirect costs not incurred resulted in the Center receiving federal award funding in excess of what was allowable. Known Questioned Costs: Requests for reimbursement of indirect costs exceeded indirect costs incurred by $51,980 for this federal award program. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that management design and implement a system whereby only incurred and allowable indirect expenses are submitted for reimbursement. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Center experienced significant growth in its federal awards during the fiscal year that were not commensurate with the growth in its overhead and indirect costs. As a result, the processes used in prior years to capture and request indirect costs for reimbursement were no longer effective. The Center will reconcile the accounting class utilized in its general ledger system at least quarterly to ensure indirect costs incurred are equal to or exceed the indirect costs requested for reimbursement under federal grant awards.

Significant Deficiency 2023-001. Payroll (Allowable Costs/Cost Principles) United States Department of Education, Passed Through New York State Department of Education: Title I Grants to Local Education Agencies ALN 84.010A English Language Acquisition State Grants ALN 84.365 Education Stabilization Funds (ESF) COVID-19: American Rescue Plan – Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) ALN. 84.425U Condition: Subpart I, 2 CFR §200.430 of the Uniform Guidance requires that charges to “Federal awards for salaries and wages must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed.” The documentation should support the distribution of the employee’s compensation among specific activities if the employee works on more than one Federal award, or a Federal award and non-Federal award. The preparation of personnel activity reports (PARs) or periodic certifications or the equivalent is the most effective way to comply with this requirement. During the current year, it was noted that in some instances, the District PAR forms were either not available, or did not accurately reflect the allocation or the grant that the employee was charged to in order to comply with Subpart I, 2 CFR §200.430. Planned Corrective Action: The District will properly review and maintain the federal personnel activity reports (PARS) to ensure the employee’s salary, or other form of compensation is correctly coded to the grant and the form accurately reflects the federal program in which the employee’s earnings were allocated to support the compliance with Subpart I, 2 CFR §200.430.

The payroll registers and postings do match but the agency has historically corrected wages to each grant monthly, resulting in difficulty to test each payroll to grants. Finance and HR attempted to identify a process with the payroll company. Instead, the Agency created a new payroll journal to post payrolls per pay period that match grant budgets. In addition, the Agency updated the Fiscal Procedures manual with this clarification, “Grants are amended throughout the year for revenues. The agency may need to move staff and benefits prior to a grant year end close due to realignment with amendments. The agency should always strive to not have carry forward in smaller state grants and to post expenses such that carry forward is accounted for the in State 8001 contract. This is not to shift costs to grants but to reconcile budget amendments that occur frequently during the year to actual expenditures.” This clarification acknowledges that perpetual changes to grant amounts by the State and Federal government will necessitate changes during the fiscal year.
Travel reimbursement was immediately corrected, and the agency has implemented the added step that the Finance Director will review and approve all mileage reimbursements for consistency in calculation.

RE: 2022-23 Audit Finding #2023-002 Dear Mr. Ash; This letter is to serve as the District response to Audit Finding 2023-002 “Education Stabilization Funds – Indirect Costs (5000).” Within this finding, it is stated that indirect costs were overcharged to federal funds as noted within the audit report. Some prior calculations of the indirect costs were over the allowed amounts, but due solely to items within particular object codes that do not allow indirect cost charges. However, rates have been adjusted and indirect cost rate sheets have been within allowable ranges with our most recent interim budget reporting. Overages will be adjusted with journal entries. Thank you, Heather Leslie Chief Business Official
