Finding Text
Criteria - The District's internal control over financial reporting should ensure accurate claim reporting of the National School Breakfast/Lunch Program (NSBLP) meals on a monthly basis. Condition - The District's inadvertently requested meal reimbursements for May 2022 under both the Seamless Summer Option (SSO) and NSBLP thus duplicating the request. Cause - The District had staff turnover within the NSBLP and business office that affected the reporting process. Effect - Reimbursement revenue of $34,076 was received and recorded as revenue in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2022, thus overstating revenue in the NSBLP. An audit adjustment of this amount was proposed to reflect a payable back to TEA. TEA deducted the duplicate claim from the District?s September 2022 reimbursement claim. Recommendation - Once fully staffed, we recommend that the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) review all claim reimbursements and verify actual meal counts prior to claim submission by the cafeteria staff.
