Finding Number: 2022-005 Condition: An internal control was not in place to document that the current rates of pay were approved. During our testing of payroll for ALN 17.258, 17.259 and 17.278 - WIOA Cluster and ALN 17.207 Employment Services Cluster, we determined that actual pay was charged to the federal grants tested. However, there was no documentation (within personnel files or other means) to support that the rates of pay were approved. Planned Corrective Action: DESC was unable to locate evidence due to turnover with the HR department. We have hired a new Director of Human Resources (Director), who has implemented an employee filing system that incorporates up to date employee information and salary information. This information is noted in offer letters, promotion letters and salary increase letter. All payroll updates are required in writing to evidence approval of the Director of Human Resources and another executive team members authorization (President or CFO). This confidential information is stored in the Director?s locked office. Contact person responsible for corrective action: Calethia Binion, HR Director Anticipated Completion Date: 06/30/2023

SECTION III - FEDERAL AWARDS FINDINGS 2022-004 - Expenditure Controls - Material Weakness The business office was recently restructured and changes will take effect starting January 1, 2022. With the changes taking effect, the business office has spread out the duties and responsibilities for managing transactions controls. Specifically, purchases will be required to go through the requisition process and be approved prior to purchases being made. This process has already been initiated but will be further emphasized in the coming year. Kathy Groh - federal grant financial manager, Chauncy Johnson - Outgoing business manager, and Jessica Benefiel - incoming business manager will oversee these changes and ensure compliance in purchasing procedures.

FINDING 2022-002 Information on the federal program: Subject: Child Nutrition Cluster - Internal Controls Federal Agency: Department of Agriculture Federal Program: School Breakfast Program, National School Lunch Program Assistance Listing Number: 10.553, 10.555 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Audit Finding: Material Weakness Condition: An effective internal control system was not in place at the School Corporation to ensure compliance with requirements related to the grant agreement and the Allowable Costs/Cost Principles compliance requirements. Context: During testing of 12 vendor disbursements for allowable costs/cost principles, we noted there was one month where there was no documented review by the School Corporation?s Business Manager of expenditures paid to the Food Service Management Company by the School Corporation?s Business Manager. The only review was performed by the Food Services Director, who is a Food Service Management company employee. We tested six other monthly submissions of Food Service Management company disbursements and noted they were all appropriately reviewed by the School Corporation with supporting documentation attached. Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The missing signature appears to be an uncommon oversight within our current system of internal controls. The Superintendent and FSMC Food Service Director will make it a point to review signature pages for both signatures at each monthly financial review. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: Superintendent and FSMC Food Service Director discussed this finding on 3/15/2023 and will put corrective action in place immediately.

FINDING 2022-001 Information on the federal program: Subject: Special Education Cluster (IDEA) - Earmarking Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Program: Special Education Grants to States Assistance Listing Number: 84.027 Federal Award Number: 20611-001-PN01 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Matching, Level of Effort, Earmarking Audit Findings: Significant Deficiency Condition: The School Corporation is a member of the Adams Wells Special Services Cooperative (Cooperative). During fiscal year 2021-2022, the Cooperative operated the special education programs and spent the federal money on behalf of all its member schools. As the grant agreements were between the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) and each member school, the school corporation was responsible for ensuring and providing oversight of the Cooperative. There was inadequate oversight performed by the School Corporation in order to ensure compliance with the Matching, Level of Effort, Earmarking compliance requirement. The School Corporation did not have internal controls in place to ensure that the Cooperative complied with the earmarking requirements. The Cooperative did not have adequate procedures in place to ensure that the required level of expenditures for non-public school students with disabilities was met for each member school. The Cooperative did not have effective internal controls to ensure non-public school expenditures were appropriately identified and reported. Context: The Non-Public Proportionate Share expenditures for the 20611-001-PN01 grant award could not be verified for the individual member schools. Total non-public expenditures were posted as expended. The member school proportionate share expenditures were then determined by applying a budgeted percentage to the total non-public expenditures. These were the amounts reported to IDOE. As such, we were unable to identify if the minimum amount per member school was expended and properly reported to IDOE as required. The School Corporation?s Non-Public Proportionate Share for the 20611-001-PN01 grant application was $10,523. Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: Co-ops cannot combine proportionate share funds. Funds must be spent within each LEA?s geographic boundary. We will not receive a repeat finding for FY21. We will correct for FY22 and forward. Time & Effort Logs are being completed to show how many hours personnel are servicing Non-Pub school students with a service plan. If materials and Equipment are purchased for a specific student?s need, per the service plan, then those expenditures are 100% school specific. Per the DOE, Materials used by our Speech Language Pathologist for Speech Therapy for all six school corporations, those expenditures are split evenly across all school corporations with a non-pub proportionate share allocation. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: Adams-Wells Special Services Cooperative is the responsible party for the timeline completion. No later than January 2023, the Cooperative will have corrected proportionate share monitoring workbooks for FY22 and the ARP grants.

FINDINGS?FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS U.S. Small Business Administration 2022-001 Shuttered Venue Operations Grant ? Assistance Listing No. 59.075 Recommendation: We recommend management implement a process to ensure expenditures applied to the grant are net of all applicable credits (discounts). Carolina Ballet management?s opinion is there were no deficiencies in internal control over compliance around oversight of allowable expenditures allocated to the SVOG grant funding. The finding is not a result of intentional inclusion of non-allowable expenditures, or a lack of internal control or oversight of expenditures. Carolina Ballet acknowledges the line-item transaction included in the supporting detail provided to the auditors resulted in the finding stating supporting detail submitted by Carolina Ballet staff did not reflect a discount which was applied at the time of payment for the allowable expenditure. This occurred due to Carolina Ballet?s internal process of recording an anticipated early payment discount/credit for this specific vendor in QuickBooks as a separate transaction, which subsequently did not reflect the net amount of the payment in the system report exported and used for data extraction. Due to the early payment discount credit not being applied in the SVOG line-item calculations, Carolina Ballet?s supporting detail did not include an additional allowable expenditure of the same type to cover the discount credit inadvertently omitted. Carolina Ballet submitted documentation to the auditors supporting the fact additional allocable expenditures (reflecting net amount) were available for inclusion in the detail over the amount of the discount on the transaction. Regarding the Cause in the finding noted above: ?There was an internal control process in place executed by the previous accounting management during the period covered by the grant to monitor expenses and make purchases in accordance with the planned use for the grant funding and to ensure they were allowable. There is internal evidence of this including the fact that the Director of Accounting during the grant period provided oversight for outgoing payments and applicable credits at Carolina Ballet. This same general process continues to exist currently. ?The CEO of Carolina Ballet approved and signed off on all payments for the listed expenditures, including review of credits applied during the grant period. ?There was a calculation error of a line-item amount referred to in the finding due to exclusion of an early payment discount credit for this single expenditure in the detail, such that Carolina Ballet didn?t include an additional eligible and allowable expenditure under the grant funding. This was an error in the detail listing, not a lack of internal control processes over the grant funded expenditures and credits. There were other credits applied to this payment, that were appropriate for consideration as payment that should not have and were not applied to the expenditure amount. Action taken in response to finding: Carolina Ballet, Inc. going forward and retroactively for the current fiscal year will designate expenditures covered by external funding using the QB transaction Class field to ensure inclusion with any future data extraction and as an indication of review and approval for the source of funding. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Aji Touray, Director of HR and Accounting Vanessa Nelson, Controller Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Carolina Ballet, Inc. is currently updating the QuickBooks class for externally funded expenditures for the current fiscal year, and including this process in its internal control documentation. Completion date estimated to be April 10, 2023.

2022-002 - MATERIAL WEAKNESS AND MATERIAL NONCOMPLIANCE - FRINGE BENEFITS Contract Person - Patricia Fournier, CFO Completion Date - 10/01/2022 Finding - We noted fringe benefits were charged based on a flat budgeted percentage rather than actual expenses. We recommend that fringe benefits be charged to grants based on the actual expenses to ensure costs are allowable and do not result in a potential takeback of funds. Response and Resolution: RESOLUTION: Honor revised the process for allocating and recording fringe benefits in our accounting system. Incoming vendor invoices for fringe benefits are posted to a pre-paid account until the time for the cost to be recognized as an expense. Actual fringe benefit costs are recognized as an expense with each payroll. The fringe benefit cost is allocated by employee to the appropriate location and funding source at the time of payroll. These actual expenses are then reported on all funder financial summary reports.

2022-004 Grant Expenditures Recommendation: The coding of expenditures in the general ledger accounting system should reflect the amounts requested under each grant. Additionally, reconciliations should be performed regularly to ensure expenditures are not duplicated or eligible expenditures are not omitted from grant reimbursement requests. Corrective Action: We concur. Processes have been put into place to make sure that variances do not occur. Any questions with allowable costs have been referenced in 2 CFR 200 subpart E used for a common procedure for all expenses. The executive director and office manager will review expenditures prior to the distribution of office expenses from among the funds, which will ensure accuracy before the request is made. This will also eliminate the number of correcting entries which need to be adjusted in the expenses.

The nonprofit organization was created in part to serve as the administrative arm of the Local Board and to provide a location for a resource center where WIOA services would be provided. The County did not distinguish fiscal responsibilities between parties and therefore assumed that certain expenditures of the Local Board and nonprofit would be allowable and could be paid directly by the County. The County considered the expenditures of the nonprofit to be program related, even though they were not directly incurred by the County. The County will improve its accounts payable policies and procedures for processing invoices using established process within the Finance Department, including ensuring all invoices are addressed to the County prior to payment. In addition, the County will establish clear contractual agreements that establish fiscal responsibilities that follow the program?s requirements. Finally, the County will coordinate with the pass-through grantor for the repayment of the unallowable costs identified in the finding.
