Corrective Action Plan February 16, 2023 Cognizant or Oversight Agency for Audit Independence Community College respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2022. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Jarred, Gilmore & Phillips, PA, P.O. Box 779, 1815 S Santa Fe, Chanute, Kansas 66720. Audit period: Year ended June 30, 2022. The findings from the February 16, 2023 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. Finding: 2022-001 ? Improper Classification of Transactions Condition: Reconciliations of most balance sheet accounts found transactions that were improperly classified and/or not recorded at all. These balance sheet account reconciliations resulted in material amounts of general ledger adjustments posted after year end and through the date of the audit report. Recommendation: Additional training for staff is needed in the area of financial statement preparation and use of the general ledger software. Views of responsible officials: We are in agreement and the proper training will be added. Policies will also be updated to include additional detail & steps to assure that misclassifications can be traced and reclassified in a timely manner, along with assuring reconciliation of all balance sheet accounts can properly occur monthly. Finding: 2022-002 ? Reporting Condition: During our testing of financial reports to the grantor, it was determined a breakdown in internal controls occurred, because staff did not keep support for amounts reported to grantors from the accounting system. Staff tried to re-create the reports withthe accounting system and amounts were materially different than originally reported to the grantor. Recommendation: Additional training for staff is needed in the area of internal control over reporting. All reports filed should be thoroughly reviewed and approved before issuance. This review would include tying amounts reported to attached support from the accounting system. Views of responsible officials: We are in agreement and policies will be updated to include the proper internal controls are in place. It will also be required that all supporting GL documentation be included for all reporting aspects for Grants from the draws to annual reports. If the Oversight Agency for Audit has questions regarding this plan, please call Jonathan Sadhoo, Vice President for Administration & Finance, at (620) 332-5412.
