Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Compliance Information on the Federal Program: Assistance Listing Number 14.157 – Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Criteria: The regulations in 2 CFR 200.510 requires the auditee to prepare a schedule of expenditures of Federal awards which includes the Federal awards expended for each individual Federal program and in total. Condition: For the year June 30, 2025, the unadjusted schedule of expenditures of Federal awards did not report the correct Federal awards expended for this Federal program. Cause: Management does not have internal control over preparation of the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards or reconciliation of the reported expenditures to source documentation. Effect or Potential Effect: Material misstatements of the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards could be undetected and determination of major program(s) could be based on inaccurate information. Questioned Costs: None Context: This finding relates to the schedule of expenditures of federal awards. It is a repeat finding, #2024-002 from the June 30, 2024 audit, which was not corrected by management. Recommendation: We recommend that management develop and implement internal controls over the preparation of the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards. At a minimum, they should require identification of Federal award source documentation and documentation of how the expenditure amount reported for each was calculated. Views of Responsible Official: The new policy was discussed during the fiscal year for identifying federal awards. The written memo detailing the new policy was updated on September 30, 2025. This is the policy in place to be followed when preparing the schedule of expenditures of federal awards.
