MATERIAL WEAKNESSREPEAT OF 2020-001

Management does not possess the expertise in financial accounting and reporting in order to prepare financial statements or schedule of federal awards in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of this, there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the Village?s financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. There were over 20 journal entries proposed to management to issue an unmodified opinion. While management made significant improvements in the current year, there still doesn?t appear to be procedures in place to allow management to timely review accounts. Some account balances still had not been reconciled to supporting documentation. Many accounts do not appear to be reconciled timely.

Corrective Action Plan

2020-1 Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Recommendation: Management should evaluate the need to hire additional staff with the financial expertise in financial accounting and reporting. Additional staff may also allow staff to reconcile accounts more timely and decrease the number of journal entries needed to issue an unqualified opinion. Action Taken: Management will evaluate the costs and benefits to hiring additional staff with the financial expertise in financial accounting and reporting.
