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
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 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.
