Context: The Single Audit Reporting Package and the data collection form for fiscal year 2022 were submitted to the single audit clearing house on August 15, 2023. The fiscal 2023 Single Audit Reporting Package and data collection form will likely be submitted after July 31, 2024. Cause: The cause is the lack of effective controls over financial reporting which resulted in delays in issuing both the Financial Statement Audit and Single Audit. Effect or Potential Effect: This can result in errors reported in the SEFA, SESA, or basic financial statements or the disallowance of expenditures / future awards by the grantor due to lack of proper reporting. In addition, late filings result in noncompliance with the requirements of the Uniform Guidance and makes the City ineligible for consideration as a low risk auditee under Uniform Guidance, expanding the scope and cost of the single audit.

Audit Finding 2023-007 – Federal Audit Clearinghouse Submission Criteria: 2 CFR §200.512 of the Uniform Guidance requires an entity expending more than $750,000 of federal funds in a fiscal year to submit a data collection form by a due date that is the earlier of 30 calendar day after receipt of the auditor’s report(s) or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition: The Authority’s June 30, 2023 audited financial statements were not filed within the Federal Audit Clearinghouse submission within 9 months of the Authority’s year-end. Cause: The Authority had prior difficulties in getting their 2022 audit completed. As a result, the 2023 audit was not able to start on time and was not able to be completed before the reporting deadline. Effect: The Authority is not in compliance with Uniform Guidance requirements. Recommendation: We recommend the Authority become familiar with reporting requirements for each award and implement procedures to begin audit preparation work earlier in the fiscal year to ensure reports are filed within the nine-month reporting deadline set forth by Uniform Guidance. Views of Responsible Official: Management agrees with the finding.
2023-011 OA Statewide SEFA DOA controls and procedures related to the preparation of the statewide Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) were not sufficient; and as a result, a complete and accurate SEFA was not prepared timely for the year ended June 30, 2023. The statewide SEFA reported the state expended approximately $20.9 billion in federal funds in the year ended June 30, 2023. Each state agency and office prepares and submits a SEFA survey to the DOA and the DOA compiles the statewide SEFA. The SEFA reports total expenditures and amounts passed through to subrecipients for each federal program, and is supported by the Notes to the SEFA (Notes). The SEFA is a key component of the annual Single Audit, which is required to be completed no later than 9 months after fiscal year-end (March 31, 2024, for the year ended June 30, 2023). In addition to providing an opinion on the SEFA, the State Auditor's Office uses the SEFA for many critical Single Audit tasks including determining and identifying Type A and large Type B thresholds and programs, determining major federal programs, and ensuring required audit procedures are performed. Untimely SEFA The year ended June 30, 2023, SEFA was not prepared by the DOA until February 28, 2024, 8 months after fiscal year end and 1 month before the Single Audit reporting deadline. Because the DOA prepares the SEFA after the State of Missouri Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) draft has been prepared, and the fiscal year 2023 ACFR draft was prepared over 7 months after fiscal year end, the fiscal year 2023 preparation of the SEFA was delayed. The delayed preparation of the SEFA negatively impacted the completion of various Single Audit tasks, and contributed to the delay in issuance of the fiscal year 2023 Single Audit. The DOA has indicated that staff turnover and increased workload in other areas contributed to the delayed SEFA. Regulation 2 CFR 200.512 requires the state to submit its Single Audit report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse no later than 9 months after the fiscal year-end. SEFA errors The fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, SEFA and Notes included various errors and misstatements including: • The Emergency Solutions Grant Program (Assistance Listing No. 14.231) and the COVID-19 - Emergency Rental Assistance Program (Assistance Listing No. 21.023) were not included in the SEFA. Expenditures for these programs totaled $1,542,983 and $9,514,168, respectively. After we notified the DOA of these errors, the DOA revised the statewide SEFA. • The Unemployment Insurance program (Assistance Listing No. 17.225) expenditures reported in the SEFA were $7,059,661 more than the amount reported in Note 2 - Unemployment Insurance Expenditures. In addition, the Notes did not include the correct program name. After we notified the DOA of these errors, the DOA revised the statewide SEFA and the Notes. • Amounts shown in the "Amount Provided to Subrecipients" column for some programs were overstated because the DOA lacks procedures to ensure amounts transferred from one state agency to another state agency are not reported in this column. For example, the amount reported for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (Assistance Listing No. 93.575) was overstated by $19,486,185, which represents transfers from the Department of Social Services to the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Part 3-M-1 of the Compliance Supplement states, "Transfers of federal awards to another component of the same auditee under 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F, do not constitute a subrecipient or contractor relationship." Since this error did not result in a material misstatement to the SEFA, no correction was made by the DOA. The errors occurred without detection due to (1) staff turnover, (2) inadequate documented procedures for preparing the SEFA, and (3) inadequate review procedures. Conclusions Strong internal control is necessary to ensure the SEFA is prepared timely, accurately, and in compliance with federal requirements. Regulation 2 CFR Section 200.510(b) requires the recipient of federal awards to prepare a SEFA including federal awards expended for each federal program. Regulation 2 CFR Section 200.303(a) requires the non-federal entity to "[e]stablish 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." Recommendation The OA through the DOA strengthen controls and procedures to prepare a timely and accurate statewide SEFA. Such procedures should provide for proper reporting of subrecipient amounts. Auditee's Response We agree with the auditor's finding. Our Corrective Action Plan includes our planned actions to address the finding.
