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). Compliance – Per 2 CFR 200.320: Non-Federal entities may establish a threshold higher than the micro-purchase threshold identified in the FAR in accordance with the requirements of this section. The non-Federal entity may self-certify a threshold up to $50,000 on an annual basis and must maintain documentation to be made available to the Federal awarding agency and auditors in accordance with § 200.334. The self-certification must include a justification, clear identification of the threshold, and supporting documentation of any of the following: (A) A qualification as a low-risk auditee, in accordance with the criteria in § 200.520 for the most recent audit; (B) An annual internal institutional risk assessment to identify, mitigate, and manage financial risks; or, (C) For public institutions, a higher threshold consistent with State law. Micro-purchase thresholds higher than $50,000 must be approved by the cognizant agency for indirect costs. The non-federal entity must submit a request with the requirements included in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of this section. The increased threshold is valid until there is a change in status in which the justification was approved. Condition: MSU established a micro-purchase threshold of $75,000 for contracted services and was not able to provide documentation to support this threshold. Questioned Costs: None. Context: For 3 out of the 7 contracts tested, the dollar amount of the contract was above the Federally established Micro-Threshold of $10,000, and price or rate quotations were not obtained providing for full and open competition. Cause: Mississippi State University’s Procurement and Contracts Manual was updated in August 2022; however, the section addressing federal requirements was not properly addressed. Effect: The institution procured services with a policy not meeting Federal requirements. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the institution review and revise their current procurement policy and review requirements to ensure that their policy is meeting Federal requirements. Views of Responsible Officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Criteria: 2 CFR § 200.512(a) provides, in part: "The audit must be completed and the data collection form ... must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period." 2 CFR § 200.520 provides, in part: "That to qualify as a low-risk auditee and be eligible for reduced audit coverage the following condition must be met: Single audits were performed on an annual basis in accordance with the provisions of this Subpart, including submitting the data collection form and the reporting package to the FAC within the timeframe specified in § 200.512." Cause: The District was the victim of a ransomware attack in August 2022 which led to a delay in the audit process as records were being retrieved and reposted. Effect: Not making all audit documentation available in a timely manner resulted in the audit and data collection form submissions to be late and, therefore, not available to the public within the required timeframe.

Statement of Condition: The data collection form for the year ended June 30, 2023 remains outstanding and therefore has not been submitted timely. Statement of Cause: Due to the Charter School undergoing dissolution and desk audit reviews of federal programs from New York State, the issuance of the audited financial statements was delayed. The results of the financial audits are required as part of the submission with the data collection form to the FAC, therefore, the data collection form could not be completed and submitted until the completion of the financial audits. Statement of Effect: The Charter School was not in compliance with federal guidelines. Questioned Cost: None. Recommendation: The Charter School should follow the federal guidelines by submitting the data collection form to the FAC in a timely manner, if possible. Management’s response: See Corrective Action Plan.

GARLAND COUNTY, ARKANSAS SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS December 31, 2022 -
Compliance with Reporting Under the Uniform Guidance Information on Federal Program: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistance Listing No. 14.871. Criteria: According to the code of federal regulations section § 200.520 (a), single audits must be performed on an annual basis, including submitting the data collection form and the reporting package to the FAC within the timeframe specified in §200.512 which is the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the end of the audit period. Statement of Condition: The data collection forms for the years 2019 through 2021 have not been submitted timely. Statement of Cause: Due to significant turnover in key positions within the Town’s fiscal office, the financial audits are currently behind. The results of the financial audits are required as part of the submission with the data collection form to the FAC, therefore, the data collection forms cannot be completed and submitted until the completion of the financial audits. Statement of Effect: The Town was not in compliance with federal guidelines. Questioned Cost: None. Repeat Finding: Yes. Perspective Information: As part of testing the compliance with the Uniform Guidance, the dates of the submissions to the FAC are reviewed. Recommendation: The Town should follow federal guidelines by submitting the data collection form to the FAC in a timely manner. Views of responsible officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Town of Guilderland Comptroller’s Office suffered significant turnover in key positions during the fiscal years of 2019 and 2021 including the retirement of the Town Comptroller and Fiscal Officer. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic had significant impact to the Town, particularly during 2020 when remote work was encouraged. This combination and sequence of events made it impossible to meet the required external audit reporting deadlines. Since these events, the Town has filled the vacant positions and has scheduled all remaining audits. The auditors are working as expeditiously as possible to complete the remaining audits. The required reporting noted in the guidelines above cannot be completed until each prior year audit is finished, therefore causing a delay in each fiscal year’s reporting.
2022-004 – FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE SINGLE AUDIT TIMELY AND TO SUBMIT THE REQUIRED REPORTING PACKAGE TO THE FEDERAL AUDIT CLEARINGHOUSE Federal Program: Not applicable. Type of Finding: Significant deficiency in internal control over compliance; noncompliance. Repeat finding – reported in the prior year as findings 2021-001 and 2021-002. Criteria: 2 CFR 200.501(a) requires a non-Federal entity that expends $750,000 or more in Federal awards during its fiscal year to have a single or program-specific audit conducted for that year. 2 CFR 200.512(a) requires the audit to be completed and the reporting package and data collection form (Form SF-SAC) to be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's reports or nine months after the end of the audit period, and 2 CFR 200.512(b) requires the auditee to electronically submit the data collection form and reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. The Institute's grant agreements also require that an annual audit be performed. Condition: The audits of the Institute for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2023, and 2024 were not completed, and the reporting packages and data collection forms were not submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the periods required by 2 CFR 200.512. Cause: The Institute has not established or implemented written policies, procedures, and related internal controls sufficient to ensure that the annual Single Audit is completed and that the reporting package and data collection form are submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the required due date. Responsibility for monitoring these deadlines has not been assigned to specific personnel. Effect: The Institute did not comply with the audit and reporting requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Late submission of the reporting package may cause Federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities to impose additional award conditions or other remedies for noncompliance under 2 CFR 200.208 and 2 CFR 200.339, and precludes the Institute from qualifying as a low-risk auditee under 2 CFR 200.520. Questioned Costs: None Recommendation: The Institute should adopt written policies and procedures that assign responsibility for engaging the auditor, completing the annual Single Audit, and submitting the reporting package and data collection form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within nine months after each fiscal year end, and should maintain a compliance calendar to monitor those deadlines. Management's Views and Response: The Institute has engaged an auditor to complete the December 31, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 Single Audits concurrently, and will submit each reporting package and data collection form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse as each audit is completed. Thereafter, the Institute will complete the audit and submit the reporting package within nine months after year end.
