Finding Text
Criteria The audit, the data collection form, and the reporting package must be submitted within 30 calendar days after the auditee receives the auditor's report(s) or nine months after the end of the audit period (whichever is earlier). 2 CFR 200.512 Condition The Village did not have an audit completed within nine months after year end. Cause The Village has not previously prepared financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Therefore, the Village required additional time to prepare its accounting records and have the independent audit performed. Effect The Village’s financial statements were not completed, nor were the financial statement audit or compliance audit completed before the nine month due date. Auditors’ Recommendation We recommend that the Village have its audit completed timely and file the data collection by the required deadline. Management’s Response The Village will seek additional accounting assistance in order to complete its accounting records and related financial statements in a more timely manner.
