Corrective Action Plan

We concur with the recommendation, and procedures were implemented effective December 9, 2024. QuickBooks was only used for payroll since 2022 but now the accounting software used for all accounting and record transactions. The entries will be reconciled and financial statements prepared by the Chief Finance Officer (CFO) and reviewed by AMPAA’s Treasurer and third-party non-auditor CPA on a monthly basis. The Treasurer will review financial statements only and then present the analysis to the Board Members on a quarterly basis during board meetings.
