Criteria: In accordance with CFR 200.318(i), the non-federal entity must maintain records sufficient to detail the history of procurement. These records will include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following: Rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. In addition, in accordance with CFR 200.318(a) the nonfederal entity must have and use documented procurement procedures consistent with federal procurement standards. Condition: Expenditures tested that met the small purchase threshold (purchases with a cost between $10,000 and $250,000) did not have documentation detailing the history of procurement. Cause: The School does not have procurement policies that follow federal guidelines, specifically 2 CFR 200.320 Methods of procurement to be followed. Effect: Property and equipment additions made using federal funds during the year did not have appropriate a support showing procurement policies were followed. Questioned costs: $83,864 Context: Two out of two purchases tested for procurement did not follow federal procurement methods. Recommendation: We recommend that the School institute procurement policies whereby acquisitions follow appropriate procurement steps as required by 2 CRF 200.350 and documentation of procurement decisions is maintained. Action Plan: The School will develop a Procurement Policy that follows the formal bid process and ensures that the school is able to acquire goods based on the most advantageous balance of price, quality, and performance. The School will maintain procurement decision records in vendor files. Person Responsible: Yvonne Bullock, CEO/Head of School Policies are approved by the Board of Directors

Criteria: According to 2 CFR Subpart F Section 200.510b, the auditee must prepare a Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) for the period that includes all amounts spent on federal programs during the reporting period. Condition: The SEFA under-reported the expenditures for Charter Schools Program (CSP) by $24,206. Cause: The School prepared the SEFA based on the federal revenue recorded, rather than the actual federal expenditures incurred. Effect: An audit adjustment of $24,206 was made to increase the federal expenditures reported on the SEFA for the CSP program. Recommendation: We recommend that the School implement procedures whereby the SEFA is prepared based on federal expenditures incurred on a GAAP basis. Action Plan: The School has hired an accountant who will follow the accounting rules and standards for financial reporting using GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles).Persons Responsible: Tammy Chaney, Accountant

A big part of our systems conversion was the creating of a uniform chart of accounts throughout our portfolio. This was necessary to optimize our new system, to simplify financial analysis and reporting, and to streamline account reconciliations. However, changing the organization’s chart of accounts involved the consolidating, splitting-up, adding and removing of some general ledger line items. This created a number of issues when it comes to validating the beginning balances data in Yardi with the audited ending balances in QuickBooks. Furthermore, in the first few months after the system conversion, most of the finance team staff members were getting used to a new system and a new chart of accounts. This resulted in several data entry errors and inconsistencies. As a result of these some balance sheet account balances needed adjustment. HIP Housing’s team has provided the most of the adjusting entries necessary to rectify the account balances. We have also provided our team with ample training of the new system and have implemented several process improvements to streamline data entry. We are confident that a combination of these measures we have taken have already come to fruition and future audits will have far less account balances that need adjustments. Ghion Dessie – VP of Finance

HIP Housing had a system conversion from QuickBooks to Yardi in July 2021. Our go live date was July 1, 2021 which makes fiscal year 21-22 our first year of audit in our new system for HHAV, HIP Housing, and HHDC. Due to difficulties and complications related to our conversion, mapping of conversion data, validating beginning balances, and closing out the year took us much longer that we expected. That significantly delayed our year end closing process. Such a delay is common when organizations are going through system conversions. Now that we will have audited beginning balances in Yardi, such delays should be reduced. We have already started taking measures to ensure that financials are completed and reconciled in a reasonable period for future audits. Some of these measures include monthly A/R and A/P tie outs of the A/R and A/P sub-ledgers to the general ledger and also a monthly reconciliation of intercompany reconciliations. We have also started using import files to record most of the intercompany transactions which will simplify/improve our intercompany reconciliation. Ghion Dessie – VP of Finance
