Legal Services Corporation Grants – Assistance Listing No. 09.706060 Aging Cluster – Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part B – Assistance Listing No. 93.044 Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization consider updating its cost allocation methodology and process to reduce the frequency of manual adjustments based on review of individual time records and expense data and maximize the use of automated allocations that are calculated in a consistent manner that ensure costs are applied uniformly to respective benefited activities, and that are reflective on employees’ time and effort records. We also recommend that the Organization maintain contemporaneous documentation supporting all cost allocations. Lastly, the Organization could consider removing LSC from the general fund into its own fund, and using fringe benefit rate and indirect cost rate allocation methods to simplify its cost allocation process. Explanation of Disagreement With Audit Finding: Management partially agrees with this finding. First, 45 CFR Part 1635 codifies the timekeeping requirement. CLS keeps track of every case and time dedicated by staff in strict compliance with this requirement. Manual adjustments primarily result from planned internal reconciliations and reviews designed to ensure the accuracy of CLS allocations. These reconciliations are conducted on a monthly basis and form an integral part of the Organization’s internal control framework. Action Taken in Response to Finding: Additionally, with respect to the Native American grant transactions, CLS implemented the necessary correction to the referenced percentage effective beginning in 2026.
