Condition During testing, it was discovered that food and beverage expenditures were reimbursed under the program. Cause There was some confusion as to the allowability of the expenditures, and a clear approval from the awarding agency, or other documentation in support of the expenditure, was not obtained. Effect Unallowable expenditures were charged to and reimbursed by the program. Context Three sample items tested were for the purchase of food and beverages, and the known questioned costs are $88. Total estimated questioned costs are $176. Recommendation We recommend that the County review its procedures and implement controls to ensure that expenditure allowability is properly determined.
