Recommendation:
To ensure the proper procedures are in place to allow the audit to be completed and
received by the State of New Jersey Department of Agriculture in the required
timeframe.
Action Taken:
Firstly, Administrator met with his staff and required that all books and records
relating to the food program should be current and up to date in order to
facilitate sending the information to the Audit firm in a timely manner.
Secondly, there was a meeting between the Administrator and the CPA firm
retained to prepare the audit. An understanding was reached that within 60 days
prior to the audit due date, the CPA firm and the school’s administrative staff will
meet to begin the work on the audit.
These steps will help ensure that the audit will be completed soon after the close
of the fiscal year and in a timely manner.
