Finding Text
Internal control failtures including two employee timesheets being unreviewed by agreed-upon personnel. Federal Programs Impacted: 17.258 (WIOA Cluster) Questioned Costs: None. Condition: Per the auditee's internal control procedures, employee timesheets are to be signed off on by one of the individual listed above. However, we noted two exceptions throughout all procedures applied. Criteria: 2 CFR Section 200.329 states that it is the auditee's responsibility to monitor their activities for which federal awards are used. A component of this is to develop effective internal controls to ensure compliance with relevant compliance requirements. Cause: Internal control procedures failed, and management missed two timesheets for which review was needed. Effect: Disallowed costs related to payroll could have been charged to federal awards. Recommendation: We recommend management ensure all internal control procedures are being followed as outlined. Management Response: Management agrees with this finding and will ensure internal controls are followed as outlined.
