View of Responsible Official Currently, the Organization’s CEO and the bookkeeper will review each grant’s funding details prior to the grant’s fiscal year to determine how each employee’s salary percentages should be allocated according to the grant contract. Throughout the fiscal year, the CEO and bookkeeper will meet regularly to review and incorporate any new hires to determine how their salary is expected to be allocated. Additionally, the outsourced accountant will review the allocations periodically throughout the year to ensure that it is being done properly. Over the next year, as considered efficient, the Organization will implement a daily timesheet record, which requires each program service employee to classify their daily time between federal grant programs. At the end of each week, staff members will submit their timesheet to their supervisor. The supervisor will review each week’s daily timesheet to confirm the staff are recognizing their activities properly. At the end of each month, the Organization’s outsourced accountant, will review these timesheets and determine the proper allocation needed to record each employee’s payroll activities in the accounting software by appropriate federal program. This process will allow for the allocation of actuals to each federal program by the end of the month.

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Federal Assistance Listing Number 93.498 Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan (ARP) Rural Distribution Responsible Party: Brian Lutz, Vice President of Accounting Estimated Completion Date: December 2024 Issue Counseling Associates, Inc. (CAI) reported $375,083.37 in ‘Total Reportable Other PRF Expenses’ on its Phase 4 Provider Relief Fund (PRF) Report covering the period July 1, 2021-December 31, 2021. CAI’s intent was for the entire $992,263.30 in total reportable PRF payments to be applied to lost revenues. The $375,083.37 amount reported in the Other PRF Expenses section of the report represented allowable expenditures for funding received through the Arkansas Workforce Stabilization Incentive Program funded through Section 9817 of the America Rescue Plan Act. The reporting error was due to the misinterpretation of the form by both the preparer and approver that Total Reportable Other PRF Expenses was an accounting for the use of funds reported in the ‘Other Assistance Received’ section immediately preceding this section. Corrective Action This report was prepared by the Vice President of Accounting and reviewed and approved prior to submission by the Chief Financial Officer. The approval process is deemed to be adequate by management but failed in this case due to the preparer and approver committing the same misinterpretation and overlooking the accounting provided in the ‘Other PRF Summary’ section of the report. The preparer and approver will both apply a corrected understanding and perform a more thorough review of future PRF reports.

Finding 2023-001: Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Management’s Response Mid Michigan CAA has a long-standing history of exemplary stewardship of federal, state, and local funds. The significant delay in preparation and subsequent completion of the FY2023 audit is directly related to staffing issues within the agency’s finance department. To prevent recurrence of this issue, Mid Michigan CAA is implementing the following corrective actions: 1. Revised Internal Timeline: We have established an internal audit preparation calendar with clearly defined deadlines to ensure timely completion and submission of future audits. 2. Enhanced Oversight: The Finance Committee of the Board will now receive monthly updates on audit progress during the audit cycle to ensure accountability and timely resolution of any issues. 3. Staff Engagement: Key finance staff are provided with more context and information on the audit process so that they can be more engaged and able to assist in the data gathering process.

Action to be taken – Internal controls have been adjusted to reflect double approval of all transactions by the direct supervisor and the executive director or treasurer. This will include coding of bills, approval of all transactions and the processing of transactions. All approved transactions will be handled by an offsite financial management service in the future. By eliminating the use of the credit card, this will significantly reduce the chance of not having proper supporting documentation in the future.

Management’s Response/Corrective Action Plan: Discrepancies noted above are due to the timing of transactions posting in the accounting system where period transactions are not posted until after the data is gathered for the report or even after the reporting period, but still has an effective date within the period, so it is not picked up when reports are filed. They are corrected in the following quarterly report. For TRUCK/LFVNT, the amounts were correct but just not in the period reported, and were corrected in subsequent reports. We can try to have another person duplicate the calculation of amounts for the reporting, which will depend on staffing level and time of year. The reporting site is also difficult and in order to be able to file on time, we really need to start mid-month to make sure it’s working and allow time for contacting the helpdesk to resolve any technical issues.
