Finding Text

Criteria:2 CFR 200.510(b) requires the auditee to prepare a schedule of federal awards (SEFA) that must contain federal awards expended during the period. Condition: On the original SEFA provided for the audit, the total federal expenditures reflected on the SEFA were inaccurate amounts for some programs and the program 21.027 was omitted on the initial SEFA report. This resulted in a restatement of the SEFA. Cause: Due to staff turnover, staff was unfamiliar with the specifics of the grant. Effect:SEFA was inaccurate Recommendation:We recommend that management put controls in place over the preparation and review of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards to ensure that only (and all) federal expenditures are included. Management's Response: We agree with this finding. See corrective action plan.
