Audit Finding Reference: 2023-002 – Improve Oversight of Reporting of Federal Funds The March 2023 Annual Performance report showed an expense of $239,098 in FY2023 which was not actually expended until FY2024. The Town agrees with the finding. Planned Corrective Action: When the FY2023 report was filed, the expense in the wrong period was discovered. Efforts were made to try and correct this error prior to filing the FY2023 Report, but the system would not allow any corrections. The Town makes every effort to include the source documents that support the reports submitted, which is the way this was discovered prior to submitting the FY2023 report. The Town will continue this procedure to include the source documents (Trial Balances) which support the projects and amounts filed within the report. This will ensure that the General Ledger and the reports filed are in balance. The only corrective measure for this error will occur when the FY2024 Single Audit is prepared which shows the expense expended in FY2024.
