Recommendation We recommend that management enhance its internal control structure, including financial close and reporting, to ensure timely filing of future Single Audit reporting packages Management Response Corrective Action:FNCH recognizes the critical importance of establishing robust internal controls to guarantee the timely preparation and accurate submission of reports and records for audit purposes, particularly in alignment with the requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200.512. To effectively implement these internal controls, management will enforce procedures for the timely preparation of all necessary reports and records, including the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). This will not only facilitate smoother audit processes but also ensure adherence to the 2 CFR 200.512. Management will train staff and establish timelines and responsibilities for report preparation and documentation to enhance compliance and streamline overall operations. Expected Outcome: -On-time Single Audit filings in compliance with federal rules. -Clear visibility and accountability for deadlines. -Reduced risk of penalties and funding delays. -Greater confidence from agencies and stakeholders. Due Date of Completion: 3 days following issuance of the audit report Responsible Party(ies): CEO, CFO

Finding: 2023-004: Significant Deficiency - Payroll Allocations Description of Finding: Payroll costs were allocated to grant programs using manual spreadsheets rather than an entity-wide time-tracking system, making it difficult to clearly demonstrate the proportional benefit required. This manual approach increased the risk of allocation inconsistencies and made documentation less robust than needed. Cause: The use of manual spreadsheet-based timekeeping did not provide an auditable system for allocating payroll costs to grants. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: SacAsian agrees with the finding. Corrective Action: SacAsian acknowledges the significance of this finding and the potential for misstating staff expense and has taken steps to strengthen its time-tracking and payroll allocation processes. Beginning January 1, 2025, SacAsian implemented a new accounting system that includes electronic timesheets for staff to track their time daily to specific grant activity. Timesheet training has been performed and timesheet completion is required for all employees each day, providing support for hours worked/billed, as well as documentation of the certification and approvals that all staff time entered is accurate and in compliance with contract requirements, and providing proper support for all grant direct labor and indirect costs. Monthly reviews by the Project Directors/Managers, with secondary review by the accounting team are performed, ensuring ongoing compliance with federal requirements.

Finding: 2023-003: Material Weakness and Questioned Cost - Grant Claim Support Description of Finding: SacAsian’s accounting system design did not align grant billings with the general ledger’s underlying expenses, as only direct costs were coded to the grant and other allowable costs flowed to unrestricted. As a result, the ledger detail did not clearly demonstrate the grant claim support without additional reconciliation. Cause: A comprehensive system for allocating and documenting grant-related costs had not yet been implemented. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: SacAsian agrees with the finding. Corrective Action: SacAsian understands and acknowledges the significance of this finding and the potential that it creates for documentation gaps. The Controller and Director of Finance have implemented an ERP system which allows for better cost reporting and reviews of the grant-related expenses for accuracy, reliability, and reconciliation. While the general ledger details do not align, SacAsian did provide full documentation to substantiate the expenses claimed in each billing. Moving forward, all expenditures that have been billed will be reconciled to the general ledger monthly by the Director of Finance, Controller, and external CFO firm to ensure that billings match to expenditure detail and have been correctly allocated.

Finding: 2023-002: Revised Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) Description of Finding: Expenditures reported on the SEFA required revision during the Single Audit due to some inaccuracies, including one omitted program, which occurred because review and reconciliation procedures were not fully sufficient. Cause: The underlying cause was insufficient internal controls over grant documentation review and the accounting of federal award activity. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: SacAsian agrees with the finding. Corrective Action: SacAsian acknowledges the significance of this finding and the potential for noncompliance with Uniform Guidance with the grantors and Federal entities, as well as potential increased risk of omitted federal programs and incorrect major program determination. To remediate these issues, SacAsian will strengthen its internal controls over SEFA preparation by implementing a multi-layer review and reconciliation process. SEFA schedules will be prepared by the Director of Finance and reviewed by the newly engaged external CFO firm. Final review will be performed by the President & CEO. SacAsian will implement a more rigorous review of all grant agreements, including pass-through awards, to verify federal components and Assistance Listing Number (ALN) details to ensure all federally funded activity is fully identified and properly reported on the SEFA. The SEFA will be reconciled to the general ledger, federal award agreements, billings submitted, and other supporting documentation. In addition, directors overseeing federal programs will be required to confirm that all federal awards under their purview are completely and accurately reflected. These enhanced controls will be implemented for the 2024 audit and maintained for subsequent audit periods.

Finding: 2023-001: Material Weakness - Untimely Audit Submission in Accordance with 0MB Uniform Guidance Description of Finding: The Sacramento Asian-Pacific Chamber of Commerce (SacAsian) did not submit its December 31, 2023 Single Audit reporting package—including the audited financial statements, Data Collection Form, prior-year status, and Corrective Action Plan—to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the required deadline. Cause: The submission was delayed because the Single Audit could not be completed on time due to change in audit firm and staffing shortages. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: SacAsian agrees with the finding. Corrective Action: SacAsian understands the seriousness of this deficiency and the need for strict adherence to timely audit submissions per the OMB Uniform Guidance. Additional staff have been hired to assist in accounting processes, including a Controller to review all accounting processes and procedures with the Director of Finance and implement best practice recommendations and stronger month-end closing procedures and schedule. The delay in performing the 2023 audit was caused by a change in auditors. Our previous auditor did not have the capacity to continue our audit engagement due to staff shortages related to COVID. A new audit firm identified and engaged. However, there were delays in beginning the audit, and staffing challenges internally with completing the audit such that deadlines were not met. Additionally, an external finance and accounting firm was hired in September 2025 to provide additional capacity and high-level support to bring our audits current by March 2026. The additional staffing, external expertise, and improved procedures will prevent untimely submissions in future years.
