Finding Text
Finding Type - Material weakness relative to timely reporting of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards ("SEFA") and associated data collection form on reporting for single audits. Criteria - Per 2 CFR 200.512 (a) (1), the audit must be completed, and the data collection form described in paragraph (b) of this section and reporting package described in paragraph (c) of this section must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period. Per 2 CFR 200.501 (b), a non-Federal entity that expends $750,000 or more during the non-Federal entity's fiscal year in Federal awards must have a single audit conducted in accordance with section 200.514. Condition - the data collection form was not submitted within the required time as required by 2 CFR 200.512. Context - The Organization had $1,048,996 in expenditures under various federal awards to report on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards ("SEFA") for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Organization did not have the single audit completed within the Uniform Guidance required timeframe. Cause/Effect - The Organization's controls were not adequate to ensure compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and Uniform Guidance requirements. Recommendation - We recommend the Organization strengthen internal controls and evaluate or monitor compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of their awards. View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan - The Organization agrees with the finding and recommendation as outlined above. The Organization has remedied its controls and procedures to ensure the single audit is completed witthin the required timeline.
