FINDING 2022-001 ? Material Adjustments Condition Found: During the course of the audit for the College, we proposed a journal entry to adjust deferred revenue and federal grant revenue. In 2021, the College received a federal grant that should not be recognized as revenue until allowable expenses have been made. During 2022, the College did incur the allowable expenses and therefore reduced the amount that had been recorded as deferred, however, the amount was not recorded as federal grant revenue. In addition, there were some expenses that should have been recorded as accounts payable at June 30, 2022 that were not recorded. Corrective Action Plan: The financial personnel of CCBS will continue, to the best of their ability, to ensure that year-end adjustments are entered appropriately and that financials maintain GAAP standards before being submitted for audit Anticipated Completion Date: The corrective action will completed by June 2023.

Major Federal Program: 09.744050 ? Legal Services Corporation ? Basic Field Grant Compliance Requirements: Allowable Activities Response: The LANWT Board of Directors reviews and adopts case and matter priorities as guidance to LANWT staff for the delivery of legal services and advocacy to eligible applicants seeking assistance. LANWT?s current protocol regarding case and matter priorities, adopted in 2022, provides that the Case & Matter Priority Policy (Policy) is given to employees several different times during their onboarding with the firm and then again each year thereafter. Employees first receive a copy of the Policy from LANWT Human Resources (HR) during New Employee Orientation (NEO). The employee signs an acknowledgement confirming they have received the Policy and they will review it. HR retains the signed acknowledgement from each employee in the employee?s personnel file. Employees train on the Policy during the Branch NEO with their manager. The managers use the Branch NEO Checklist (Checklist) during their training to identify important policies and procedures. The branch NEO training consists of reviewing the Policy with the employee, ensuring they know the location of the Policy for future reference, what defines a priority case and matter, what an emergency is and the procedure for handling an emergency. Upon completing the training, employees sign the Branch NEO Checklist acknowledging they have received and reviewed the Policy. HR places the signed Checklist in each employee?s personnel file. During Onboard Training with employees, facilitated by the Directors of Litigation, the Policy is provided, reviewed and any questions answered. Any updated Case & Matter Priority Policy is published to employees for review and use. To ensure ongoing compliance with the regulation, LANWT supervising and managing attorneys attend case staffing and supervise the acceptance of cases pursuant to the Policy. Managers submit written confirmation to LANWT?s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) that their staff have complied with the Policy on a quarterly basis. LANWT will: 1. Review and revise the acknowledgement documentation for its Case & Matter Priority Policy within 30 days; 2. Provide guidance to managers and relevant administrative staff on completion and retention of the documentation during NEO process and during any other relevant times determined by LANWT; and 3. Provide the revised acknowledgement documentation to all intake staff, advocates and those staff having authority to make case selection decisions and have them sign within 60 days.

Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2022 Significant Deficiency Compliance Requirement: Equipment/Real Property Management Criteria: According to 2 CFR section 200.313(d)(1), detailed property records must be maintained for equipment acquired under a federal grant award. Records should include a description of the property, a serial number or identification number, the source of funding (including the federal award identification number), who holds title, the acquisition date, cost of the property, percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired, the location, use and condition of the property, and ultimate disposition data. Condition: During our audit, we noted the District?s fixed asset records were incomplete relating to five assets acquired with federal grant funding that did not appear in the fixed asset records. Cause: Several equipment items purchased with federal funds were not appropriately captured as fixed asset additions and thus, were not included within the District?s fixed asset records. Effect: The District?s fixed asset records are incomplete and thus, fixed assets purchased with federal funds may not be properly safeguarded and the District may not be in compliance with the aforementioned federal regulations. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: We recommend the District update their fixed asset records to include required information for assets purchased with federal awards and that a system of communication and a review process be implemented to ensure completeness and accuracy of fixed asset records. District?s Response: Implementation Plan of Action: The District agrees with these findings. Prior to the commencement of this audit Richard Snyder, the School Business Official recognized this issue and immediately took corrective action by engaging in an RFP to contract with a qualified vendor. This qualified vendor will be responsible to conduct a full appraisal of all fixed assets, including tagging and compiling a list of all the fixed assets. This vendor will also be responsible to ensure that all new fixed assets will be tagged timely, and inventory list will be updated and maintained in accordance with regulations. Implementation Date: By June 30, 2023 Person Responsible for the Implementation: Richard Snyder, the School Business Official is responsible for the implementation of this plan.

To meet this requirement, school districts must meet (1) the eligibility standard and (2) the compliance standard. Condition: The District did not maintain supporting documentation for the maintenance of effort calculator for compliance for actual amounts for the 2020/2021 fiscal year and thus, the District was unable to substantiate various amounts reported within the calculator. Cause: Due to turnover of multiple positions at the District, the District did not maintain the supporting documentation used to substantiate the amounts reported in the maintenance of effort calculator for compliance. Effect: The District did not maintain the supporting documentation used to substantiate the amounts reported in the maintenance of effort calculator for compliance. Questioned Costs: None.

Finding 2022-001 Condition/Context During the audit of the program in the prior year, known questioned costs of $30,174 were identified related to expenses improperly applied to the funding. In the Period 4 submission, the Organization should have corrected the error by reducing lost revenues reported for the amount of known questioned costs identified in the prior year as instructed by the Health Resources and Service Administration (HRSA). Lost revenues reported in the Period 4 submission were not properly reduced for the known questioned costs identified. In addition, the Period 4 submission and lost revenue calculation did not contain a review and approval prior to submission to detect potential errors of this nature. This is not a statistically valid sample. Corrective Action Plan Corrective Action Planned: The Organization agrees with the finding. The next required filing will be reduced by the $30,174 which should have been done in Period 4. Segregation of duties between the preparation of the reports and the review/approval of them, including reviewing all supporting documents, is in place. Going forward once the information is reviewed it will be clearly stated that everything has been reviewed and to the best of the reviewer?s knowledge everything is correct, dated and signed prior to filing the information. This will be reported to the Finance Committee and Board so that it will be in the minutes.

Finding 2022-001 Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance ? Reporting Criteria: An entity?s internal control structure should include such controls to ensure timely, accurate, and complete reporting. Federal grant recipients are subject to special reporting requirements, including: - Special reports required by the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) which requires subawards in excess of $30,000 to be reported to FSRS no later than the end of the month following the month the subaward was made. - Annual financial reporting includes: o Reports to negotiate the final indirect cost rate proposal based on actual expenditures should be submitted within six months of fiscal year end. o The OMB reporting package containing the data collection form and audit report(s) are required to be submitted to the Federal Clearinghouse the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the auditor?s report(s) or 9 months after the end of the fiscal year. Condition: Reports required by FFATA for sub-awards made in fiscal year 2022 were not completed. Annual financial reports for indirect costs and the OMB reporting package have not yet been submitted. Context: The condition was noted as part of our documentation of internal control processes and substantive testing of compliance with the compliance requirement reporting. Cause: Reports to FSRS were not submitted because the determination of which subawards were subject to FFATA reporting was misinterpreted as the payment of federal award funds to subawardees rather than the execution of the subaward. Report submissions for the annual financial reports for indirect costs and the OMB reporting package were delayed due to the unavailability of a fully adjusted accrual basis trial balance and general ledger. Effect or Potential Effect: MARAMA may not be in compliance with its reporting requirements. Delays in submission of reports could cause delays in the assignment or approval of final and provisional indirect cost rates. Noncompliance with reporting requirements could impact current and future federal awards. Recommendation: MARAMA should develop procedures to ensure subawards are reported to FSRS by the reporting deadline. Accounting records should be finalized more expeditiously in order to allow for timely filing of all annual financial reports. Responsible Official?s Response: Contact Person: Marc A.R. Cone, Executive Director, 443-322-0319 Anticipated Completion Date: MARAMA anticipates that the controls over reporting deficiencies will be remedied before the end of fiscal year 2023 and be in place for all special and annual reports beginning with the September 30, 2023 year end. Planned Corrective Action: To facilitate timely annual financial reporting, MARAMA is transitioning to another financial accounting services provider and will work in developing the necessary steps to provide the auditor with timely information. The new accounting services provider is familiar with the nuances of analyzing the applicability of FSRS reporting. With this expertise there will be a priority to develop a plan to more closely monitor the FSRS reporting requirements.

Finding: 2022-04 ? Expenditure Estimates Charged to Federal Programs Auditor Description of Condition and Effect: Health insurance and workers compensation expenditures charged to the program were based on an estimate of the claims related to COVID-19 incurred, rather than the actual amount of claims that were paid out. As a result of this condition, the County was exposed to an increased risk that costs charged to the grant program were not fully compliant with the applicable grant requirements. Auditor Recommendation: We recommend that the County implement a process to ensure that only actual expenditures incurred are charged to federal programs. Corrective Action: The County will continue to utilize, and not deviate from, existing procedures that rely on the reporting of actual expenditures for all federal awards. The use of estimates was utilized in one program, the American Rescue Plan, based on management's misinterpretation of interim guidance. Responsible Person: Connie Sobie, Controller/Administrator Anticipated Completion Date: September 30, 2023
