Finding 525621 (2024-001)

Condition: As a result of our audit procedures and review of the SEFA, we proposed multiple adjustments to the SEFA, which resulted in a material change in total expenditures of federal awards. Criteria: 2 CFR Part 200 Cause: Oversight by management, and there was not an independent review of the SEFA prepared by someone other than the preparer. Effect: Audit adjustments were required for the SEFA to be materially correct in accordance with 2 CFR Part 200.510(b). Recommendation: We recommend that prior to sending the SEFA to the auditors, management performed a detailed review of the SEFA, general ledger, and monthly invoicing spreadsheets for each federal program included on the SEFA, to ensure the reports are consistent and the SEFA is complete and accurate. If possible, this review should be completed by an individual who did not prepare the SEFA and who has the appropriate skills, knowledge and experience of accounting and reporting in the nonprofit industry. View of Responsible Official and Planned Corrective Action: Management agrees with the finding. See corrective action plan.
