2 CFR § 3474.1 gives regulatory effect to the Department of Education for 2 CFR § 200.313(d) which requires that: Procedures for managing equipment (including replacement equipment), whether acquired in whole or in part under a Federal award, until disposition takes place will, as a minimum, meet the following requirements: 1. Property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (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 any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sales price of the property. 2. A physical inventory of the property must be taken and the results reconciled with the property records at least once every 2 years. 3. A control system must be developed to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent loss, damage, or theft of the property. Any loss, damage, or theft must be investigated. 4. Adequate maintenance procedures must be developed to keep the property in good condition. 5. If the non-Federal entity is authorized or required to sell the property, proper sales procedures must be established to ensure the highest possible return. The School purchased a forklift simulator desk and controls in the amount of $29,995 using Education Stabilization Fund grant funds and due to deficiencies in inventory controls, failed to add the assets to the School inventory system. The lack of maintaining the required property records not only violates federal grant requirements but also increases the risk of noncompliance with grant requirements going undetected in a timely manner. The School should ensure all federally procured equipment be included on property records and property records should include the information documented under item 1. above.

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION PASSED THROUGH ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION COVID-19 ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOL EMERGENCY RELIEF FUND - AL NUMBER 84.425D PASS-THROUGH NUMBER 3505 AUDIT PERIOD - YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 2024-001. Equipment and Real Property Management Criteria or specific requirement: Property records must be maintained for equipment acquired with federal awards as specified in OMB 2 CFR section 200.313. Condition: A test of the COVID-19 Education Stabilization Fund disbursements and walkthrough procedures revealed that 165 equipment items purchased with a cost greater than $1,000 each were not recorded in the District's equipment subsidiary ledger. The total cost of the equipment was $303,150. The subsidiary ledger was subsequently corrected by the District during audit fieldwork. A similar finding was reported in the previous audit. Cause: Lack of internal controls over the equipment subsidiary ledger. Effect or potential effect: The District's equipment subsidiary records were not accurate. Context: All equipment purchases from the federal program were reviewed, which consisted of 1 invoice totaling $303,150 that contained 165 equipment items. Identification as a repeat finding: Yes Recommendation: The District should contact the Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education for guidance regarding this matter and implement proper controls over program expenditures. Views of responsible officials: The District concurs with this finding. The total population consisted of one invoice that contained 165 equipment items. The District's newly implemented equipment control process was followed; items were correctly coded, issued asset identification numbers, added to internal inventory listing, then tagged. This process ensured the items would be tracked over time, however the District recognizes deficiencies exist in this process, which resulted in inaccurate records.
FINDING 2024-006 Subject: COVID-19 - Education Stabilization Fund - Equipment and Real Property Management Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Program: COVID-19 - Education Stabilization Fund Assistance Listings Numbers: 84.425D, 84.425U Federal Award Numbers and Years (or Other Identifying Numbers): S425D210013, S425U200013 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Equipment and Real Property Management Audit Findings: Material Weakness, Other Matters Condition and Context The School Corporation had not properly designed or implemented a system of internal controls, which would include appropriate segregation of duties, that would likely be effective in preventing, or detecting and correcting, noncompliance. A property record or capital asset listing, which would include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the federal award identification number (FAIN)), 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, and use and condition of the property, is to be maintained for assets purchased that exceed the School Corporation's capitalization threshold. In addition, a physical inventory of all assets should be completed at least every two years. There were two assets purchased with grant funds selected for testing, totaling $100,847. The assets were included on the capital asset records but did not have a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), or percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired. The lack of internal controls and noncompliance were systemic issues throughout the audit period. Criteria 2 CFR 200.303 states in part: "The non-Federal entity must: (a) Establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in 'Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government' issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the 'Internal Control Integrated Framework', issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). . . ." 2 CFR 200.313(d) states in part: ". . . (1) Property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), who holds title, the acquisition date, and 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 any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sale price of the property. INDIANA STATE BOARD OF ACCOUNTS 26 LIBERTY-PERRY COMMUNITY SCHOOL CORPORATION SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (Continued) (2) A physical inventory of the property must be taken and the results reconciled with the property records at least once every two years. (3) A control system must be developed to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent loss, damage, or theft of the property. Any loss, damage, or theft must be investigated. . . ." Cause A proper system of internal controls was not designed by management of the School Corporation, which would include segregation of key functions. Embedded within a properly designed and implemented internal control system should be internal controls consisting of policies and procedures. The School Corporation has policies to establish internal controls and procedures but did not establish proper internal controls. Effect Without the proper design or implementation of the components of a system of internal controls, including policies and procedures that provide segregation of duties and additional oversight as needed, the internal control system cannot be capable of effectively preventing, or detecting and correcting, material noncompliance. As a result, asset records did not include all of the required information. Noncompliance with the provisions of federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award could result in the loss of future federal funding to the School Corporation. Questioned Costs There were no questioned costs identified. Recommendation We recommended that management of the School Corporation establish a proper system of internal controls and develop policies and procedures to ensure asset records include all the required information. Views of Responsible Officials For the views of responsible officials, refer to the Corrective Action Plan that is part of this report.

In addition, a physical inventory of all assets should be completed at least every two years. There were two assets purchased with grant funds selected for testing, totaling $100,847. The assets were included on the capital asset records but did not have a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), or percentage of federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired. The lack of internal controls and noncompliance were systemic issues throughout the audit period. Criteria 2 CFR 200.303 states in part: "The non-Federal entity must: (a) Establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in 'Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government' issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the 'Internal Control Integrated Framework', issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). . . ." 2 CFR 200.313(d) states in part: ". . . (1) Property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), who holds title, the acquisition date, and 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 any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sale price of the property. INDIANA STATE BOARD OF ACCOUNTS 26 LIBERTY-PERRY COMMUNITY SCHOOL CORPORATION SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (Continued) (2) A physical inventory of the property must be taken and the results reconciled with the property records at least once every two years. (3) A control system must be developed to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent loss, damage, or theft of the property. Any loss, damage, or theft must be investigated. . . ." Cause A proper system of internal controls was not designed by management of the School Corporation, which would include segregation of key functions. Embedded within a properly designed and implemented internal control system should be internal controls consisting of policies and procedures. The School Corporation has policies to establish internal controls and procedures but did not establish proper internal controls. Effect Without the proper design or implementation of the components of a system of internal controls, including policies and procedures that provide segregation of duties and additional oversight as needed, the internal control system cannot be capable of effectively preventing, or detecting and correcting, material noncompliance. As a result, asset records did not include all of the required information. Noncompliance with the provisions of federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award could result in the loss of future federal funding to the School Corporation. Questioned Costs There were no questioned costs identified. Recommendation We recommended that management of the School Corporation establish a proper system of internal controls and develop policies and procedures to ensure asset records include all the required information. Views of Responsible Officials For the views of responsible officials, refer to the Corrective Action Plan that is part of this report.
