AI Summary

  • Core Issue: The inventory valuation method used by Second Harvest does not align with the actual values reported by Missouri and Kansas.
  • Impacted Requirements: The lack of reconciliation between the subledger, Primarius, and reported values raises concerns about completeness and accuracy.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Implement a detailed reconciliation process to ensure inventory records match reported values from the states.

Finding Text

Second Harvest values inventory based on historical Feeding America rates applied to the weight of the food received from TEFAP. This estimation of value is recorded to be the actual value of donated product as report by the states of Missouri and Kansas using an entry to record differences to inventory adjustment accounts. The subledger, Primarius, is not reconciled to the actual values of donated product as reported to Second Harvest by the states of Missouri and Kansas in sufficient detail to ensure the ongoing completeness and accuracy of the subledger.
