Cost Allowability / Cash Management

Through audit procedures performed, we noted 2 grant reimbursements that were prepared by a single individual without documented review and approval. Questioned Costs: None Context: Two errors were identified in a total of eight grant reimbursements tested. Cause: Unknown Effect: Inadequate review or lack of an audit trail for submitted grant reimbursements could result in improper funding received by the Organization from the granting agency. Repeat Finding: This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization follow the current policies and procedures over grant reimbursement transactions to maintain documentation supporting the request. This should include all supporting documentation and back-up, and preparer and reviewer sign-offs and dates. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. The Society was short of trained billing staff due to employee leave and has provided training to additional back-up staff for future use. Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Kelly Moritz, Vice President of Finance and Contracts. Planned completion date for corrective action plan: December 31, 2024
