FHA/Contract Number 000-HD031-CMI Questioned Costs $0 Context The finding represents an instance of management oversight. An unknown error occurred which prevented the automatic transfer for June to be made to the accounts. Recommendations We recommend that management fund the reserve immediately to make it current and create a better system of internal controls allowing for automatic debits to be made monthly from the operating account to fund the replacement reserve and ensure no future underfunding. Auditors’ Summary of the Auditee’s Comments on the Findings and Recommendations Management agrees with the finding. The missed replacement reserve deposit was made in July 2025, prior to issuance of the financial statements. Management determined that the exception resulted from a missed bank transfer. Management has since reviewed recurring transfer settings, confirmed reserve funding requirements, and implemented an additional monthly review control to verify that all required reserve deposits are made timely. Response Indicator Agree Completion Date July 2025 Response Management agrees with the finding and has made a deposit to the replacement reserve account to fund the shortfall prior to the issuance of the financial statements and have established a system in order to ensure no future occurrences.
