Finding Text

Condition: The Town met the requirements for a Single Audit and is required to submit its annual audited financial statements and single audit reporting requirements within 9 months of the Town's fiscal year end. The Town did not complete and submit its single audit by September 30, 2022. Criteria: The requirement in 2 CFR 200.512(a)(1) states that single audits are due to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the auditor’s report or 9 months from the Town's fiscal year end. This reporting package, is required to be submitted electronically and includes the financial statements and a supplementary schedule of expenditures of federal awards, auditor’s reports, a summary schedule of prior audit findings and a corrective action plan, if necessary. Cause: The delay in the timely submission of the audited financial statements and single audit reporting requirements was primarily due to a combination of factors impacting the ability to complete the necessary procedures within the required timeframe.
