The finding is numbered consistently with the number assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS?FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Passed through Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education Education Stabilization Fund Education Stabilization Fund Federal Assistance Listing No. 84.425, 84.425C, 84.425D and 84.425U 2022-003: Controls for Monitoring Payroll Charged to the Grant Compliance Requirement: Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Type of Finding: Compliance and Internal Control Over Compliance ? Other Matter Criteria or Specific Requirement: Grantees must provide reasonable assurance that Federal Awards are expended only for allowable activities and that the costs of goods and services charged to Federal awards are allowable and in accordance with applicable cost principles. Condition: Payroll expenditures charged to the Education Stabilization Fund grant are required to be supported with documentation (i.e., semi-annual certifications and personnel activity reports) substantiating that the employees are eligible to be charged to the grant and that the payroll charged relates to time spent accomplishing grant objectives. The City utilizes semi-annual time and effort certification forms to document the eligibility of the employees paid out of the grant. These forms, however, were not consistently completed for each employee charged out of the grant. Furthermore, the forms that were completed did not include all data required by federal and state guidelines. Context: The City did not maintain sufficient documentation to demonstrate compliance with federal and state time and effort reporting requirements in accordance with the provisions of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 225 Cost Principals for State, Local, and Indian Tribal Governments. Effect: The City has not complied with the federal and state time and effort reporting requirements. Cause: Management has not established written guidelines and procedures outlining the time and effort reporting and documentation requirements that department heads must adhere with to ensure compliance with federal and state time and effort reporting requirements. Such guidelines and procedures should indicate under what circumstances semi-annual certifications and personnel activity reports (PARS) are required. Management also has not adopted and implemented standardized forms that include all data as required by federal and state guidelines to demonstrate compliance with these requirements. Questioned Costs: Total payroll costs charged to the grant in 2022 totaled $2,997,132, which was paid on a bi-weekly basis throughout the year. Three of the pay periods were selected for testing, which totaled $241,339 for 73 employees paid out of the grant during those pay periods. From the pay periods selected for testing, the following known questioned costs were identified: "SEE CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN FOR TABLE" Repeat Finding: This matter was reported as a finding in the previous year as finding 2021-004. Recommendation: The City should establish written policies and procedures outlining the time and effort reporting and documentation requirements that must be adhered with to ensure compliance with federal and state time and effort reporting requirements. Management should adopt and implement standardized forms that include all data required by federal and state guidelines and provide training to ensure that program personnel understand the time and effort reporting requirements. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The School District immediately began redesigning the form used for time and effort reporting, and the School District will immediately begin reissuing and recollecting the forms for the education stabilization grant for 2022, as well as into future periods. If the Oversight Agency has questions regarding this plan, please call Samuel Rippin, School Business Manager, at 978-536-6520. Sincerely yours, Samuel Rippin School Business Manager City of Peabody

Management agrees with the finding and will perform a detailed review of the reporting requirements in accordance with the final guidelines set by HRSA.

Management has completed an analysis and determined that while the net patient service revenue by financial class was improperly allocated, the calculated lost revenue that the District reported still exceeds the Provider Relief Funding received. Further, the information submitted for Period 2 was the exact same information submitted and audited for Period 1, which did not have any findings during the September 30, 2021 single audit.

Finding Number: 2022-001 Condition: The Organization does not have a review process in place related to the required reporting submissions to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for the PRF program. The Organization selected Option iii for reporting lost revenues, however the Organization had mathematical footing errors in the calculation/determination of lost revenue for the second quarter of 2021 and second quarter of 2022. Planned Corrective Action: Mary Rutan will implement a process to ensure an independent review of the reporting submission is completed in future periods. Mary Rutan has updated the lost revenue calculations to correct the mathematical footing errors that were identified. Given the lost revenue reported in the period 4 portal submission was under reported to HHS, no further correction action is deemed necessary as the portal submission can no longer be modified. If any further funding is received that requires further reporting of lost revenues to HHS, Mary Rutan will ensure the lost revenue reported for quarter two of 2021 and quarter two of 2022 are properly reported based on the corrected calculations.
