Finding Text
Department of Treasury, State of Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs, Federal Financial Assistance Listing 21.029, AL192-23-NLC-23-103, AL192-23-NLC-25-104 A, AL192-23-NLC-25-104 B Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund Preparation of Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance Criteria: Proper controls over financial reporting include a system designed to prepare the schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the schedule) and the accompanying notes to the schedule. Condition: The Entity does not have an internal control system designed to provide for a complete and accurate schedule of federal expenditures of federal awards being audited. As auditors, we were requested to assist with the preparation of the schedule and accompanying notes to the schedule. Cause: Auditor assistance with preparation of the schedule is not unusual as the schedule has unique and specialized requirements and preparation is only required when the Entity meets a specified threshold of federal expenditures. Effect: There is a reasonable possibility that the Entity would not be able to draft a complete and accurate schedule. Questioned Costs: None reported. Context/Sampling: Sampling was not used. Repeat Finding from Prior Year: No Recommendation: While we recognize that this condition is not unusual for an organization with limited staffing, it is important that the Entity is aware of this condition for financial reporting requirements relating to the Entity’s schedule of expenditures of federal awards and the internal controls that impact financial reporting. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.
