Views of Responsible Officials Responsible/Contact Official Paul Barenfus, CLO, and Sylvia Sanchez, CFO Management Response The ERP Grant is a very different grant from previous grants received by the Credit Union. Although management followed the instructions provided on the CDFI website, it was not clear that running the loan through the ERP track for eligibility was only one of several steps. After auditors noted that 4 loans were ineligible, management searched the website to find the second track that the loans had to be qualified through, the Majority-Minority Census. The team has not had to qualify loans like this in the past, and the additional third step for qualification was not understood. Management has since replaced the unqualified loans on the 2023 SEFA with eligible loans. Documented procedures for the ERP Grant have been completed and are being followed.

2023-002 REPORTING - SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY Federal Program COVID-19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds - ALN 21.027 Criteria Per the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200.512, management is responsible for the preparation and submission of expenditure reports detailing costs allocated to specific federal grants, for each funding agency. Condition/Cause During the audit, we noted that the client submitted the same expenditure report to two different pass through agencies for federal funding received for a capital project. One of the grants did not include a reporting template and the overall costs of the project exceeded the total of grant funds allocated to the Organization. The Organization did not have proper controls in place to approve and allocate specific costs to each of the agencies through the reporting process. Effect The report submitted to the funding agency had incorrect costs included. Questioned Costs None. Context We examined the monthly reports submitted to two of the local government funders and noted the same expenses were reported to both funding agencies. The Organization submitted revised reports to each funder which were approved prior to the end of the audit. Repeat Finding No. Recommendation The Organization should review and update policies and procedures, as needed, to ensure that appropriate procedures and controls are in place for properly reporting tracked costs to the funding agencies. This should include identifying the individual responsible for review and approval of expenditure reports to ensure that tracked costs are property reported to the funding agencies Management Response The Organization tracks funds received from funding agencies and submits interim and final expenditure reports to the funding agencies. The expenditure reports will be sent to the CEO for review and approval prior to submission to ensure that the appropriate costs are being allocated to the correct funds. Completed as of August 12th, 2024. Please contact Suhyla Gohar, Finance Director, for additional information at phone 610-374-4600 x 136 or email at sgohar@goggleworks.org
