AI Summary

  • Core Issue: One employee has too much control over critical financial areas, increasing the risk of errors or fraud.
  • Impacted Requirements: Segregation of duties is not being properly implemented for federal program management.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Review and redistribute responsibilities to ensure no single employee manages incompatible duties.

Finding Text

One important aspect of internal accounting control is the segregation of duties among employees to prevent an individual employee from handling duties which are incompatible. We noted one individual has control over one or more of the following areas for the District relating to federal programs; cash, investments, receipts, disbursements, capital assets, financial reporting, school lunch program and journal entries.
