Department of Health and Human Services FINDING ? FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS 2022-001 Documentation of Personnel Expenses (Timesheets) Material Weakness Recommendation: Require all employees to complete a contemporaneous timesheet which includes all required Uniform Guidance requirements. Action Taken: On January 1, 2023, an electronic time reporting function was put into effect through ADP (?Automatic Data Processing?), the company?s payroll processing system. This improvement allows employees to enter their time and select a cost center (?department code?) at the time of entry. It then routes the timesheet for approval by the supervisor before reaching the accounting department for payment initiation, resulting in an automated review and approval.

2022 ? 004 Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance with Preparation of Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Condition: The Organization does not have an internal control system designed to provide for the preparation of the Schedule. The Schedule was not reviewed and required adjustments. Cause: The Organization had turnover and limited staffing available. Management?s Response and Corrective Action Plan: The organization was unprepared for the first time performing a single audit. Also, the information that was needed was issued later than optimal by the government for the reporting requirements. However, now that there is an understanding of the process, the schedule will be monitored monthly. The more consistent staffing will provide a better flow of communication with the approval process. The YTD schedules will be presented at quarterly Board Finance Committee meetings. Responsible Individuals: ? Accountability for understanding and management of the entire process ? Marcia Meyer, CEO ? Preparation of regular schedules during year ? Jennie Myers ? Preparation of quarterly schedule updates ? Jennie Myers ? Approval of quarterly schedules and presentation to Finance Committee ? Marcia Meyer (approval) and Jennie Myers ? Preparation of annual schedule in advance of the audit ? Jennie Myers ? Approval of annual schedule before submitting for audit ? Marcia Meyer Anticipated Completion Date: This will be implemented immediately and will be up to date by June 2023.

2022-003 Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance with Activities Allowed or Unallowed and Allowable Costs/ Cost Principles Condition: The Organization did not retain the required documentation to support the review of expenditures. Cause: The Organization had turnover and limited staffing available. Management?s Response and Corrective Action Plan: Changing the personnel involved has solved much of the problem, also the full awareness of what needs to be retained has also been explained to management. If/ when funds from federal sources are used, those expenditures will be reviewed monthly. Specifically, this will mean: ? Maintain EIDL-sourced funds in separate bank/ account. ? Have single authorization for any movement/ usage of funds in EIDL account. ? If/when funds from EIDL are used, have a written statement for purpose and documentation produced for use at the time of request. Responsible Individuals: ? Maintain separate account ? Marcia Meyer, CEO, in conjunction with Board Finance Committee ? Authorization for use of funds ? Marcia Meyer ? Maintenance of records for use ? JC Thompson ? Confirmation with use of funds per allowable uses per national guidelines ? Jennie Myers ? Reporting on monthly finance report ? Jennie Myers Anticipated Completion Date: This process is underway and will be visible at the fiscal year-end audit in June 2023.

Finding 2022-003 ? General Oversite ? Material Weakness Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization create policies and procedures to ensure proper oversight of the financial reporting function. In addition, we would recommend the Organization to consider the costs and benefits of restructuring the finance department. This could include allocating additional resources to hire additional employees, reallocation of responsibilities within the organization and less reliance on the contracted accounting services. View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Executive Director has worked with the Director of Grants and Finance to review and revise the agency?s accounting policies and procures. To ensure proper oversight, all procedures and reports will be reviewed by the Board?s Finance Committee, followed by a final review and approval of the Full Board of Directors of Joseph?s House & Shelter. Beginning in Q1 2022, agency leadership took necessary action to begin restructuring the Finance Department following a change in staffing with the contracted accounting service. In Q2 2022, the agency promoted a long-tenured staff member to the newly-created Director of Grants and Finance position, which separated and removed all finance duties from the Director of Administration. To support the Director of Grants and Finance, a full time Grants and Finance Specialist staff position was created in Q3 of 2022. The organization has scaled back reliance on the contracted accounting service and has ensured that all claims, with the implementation of personnel time tracking systems, are submitted through our Finance Department. We continue to use a contracted accounting service for higher-level accounting duties and for on-going advisement that supplements, instead of replaces, the work of internal staff. We are confident these changes have improved the agency?s ability to provide adequate management oversight in the financial reporting process. This was completed in Q2 of 2023.

Finding Number: 2022-016 ? SEFA Preparation Corrective Action Plan: In 2022, the office had downsized due to turnover in staff. While a process was in place for reconciling, a secondary review was not performed to verify accuracy of the residual value calculations. To strengthen the oversight of financial management in the School, Academica Nevada, the School?s management company, has filled all the open positions and realigned staff responsibilities to reduce individual workloads and provide additional oversight and review. The grant manager will reconcile all grants to ensure proper cutoff, with a secondary review performed by a member of management. Responsible Individuals: Nachum Golodner, Director of Accounting Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023

Finding 2022-002: We agree with the finding. The Authority is relatively small with limited administrative staff. Further, the Board of Commissioners is a volunteer oversight board and not a managing board and does not have the time or expertise to provide the necessary services to correct the internal control deficiencies noted. The Board had reviewed the issue and determined that there are no additional procedures which can be reasonably done to eliminate the deficiencies and accepts them.

MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE AND MATERIAL NONCOMPLIANCE ? U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ? PASSED THROUGH MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, COVID-19 ? EDUCATION STABILIZATION FUND, FEDERAL ALN 84.425 2022-002 Internal Control Over Compliance and Material Noncompliance With Equipment and Real Property Management Requirements Finding Summary 2 CFR ? 200.313 (c)(1) and (d)(1) requires that Aurora Charter School (the School) obtain approval from the federal funding agency or pass-through agency prior to the purchase of equipment with federal funding. During our audit, we noted the School did not have sufficient controls in place within the COVID-19 ? Education Stabilization Fund federal program to assure compliance with federal equipment and real property management requirements, resulting in material noncompliance. Corrective Action Plan Actions Planned ? This condition and the resulting material noncompliance was caused by a misunderstanding of the cost threshold at which federal equipment and real property management compliance requirements must be applied, due to the School?s adopted internal capitalization threshold being lower than the federal threshold. The School intends to revise its internal capitalization threshold to align with the federal threshold, and to review its other control procedures relating to equipment and real property management requirements to ensure compliance for future federal awards expenditures. Official Responsible ? Matthew Cisewski, Executive Director. Planned Completion Date ? June 30, 2023. Disagreement With or Explanation of Finding ? The School agrees with this finding. Plan to Monitor ? The School?s Executive Director, Matthew Cisewski, will oversee the implementation of proposed corrective actions and verify that appropriate controls are in place and understood by individuals responsible for federal program oversite at the School to ensure future compliance with federal equipment and real property management requirements.
