SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYOTHER MATTERS

During our review of the unaudited submission, we noted the submission was not completed until April 18, 2023. Questioned costs: none noted Context: During our review of the unaudited REAC submission, we noted the report was not submitted on time. No extensions were granted by HUD. Cause: The Organization relied on their outside accountant to submit the unaudited submission to HUD and did not follow-up to confirm it had been submitted by the due date. Effect: The unaudited submission was filed late to HUD. The CDA will lose rating points from HUD due to the late filing. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that Management create an internal control monitoring system to ensure future reports are filed prior to their due date. Views of responsible officials: We agree with the finding of 2022-001 ? Unaudited REAC Reporting.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYQUESTIONED COSTSOTHER MATTERS

During our testing, we noted the CDA charged more costs to the program than what the timesheets supported. Questioned costs: $2,734 Context: During our testing, we noted the CDA used an estimate to allocate payroll costs between programs based on budget/expectations. We noted timesheets did not agree to the amount on the three payrolls that we tested. Cause: The City of Wausau processes the payroll for the CDA and is provided an estimate of the program allocation at the beginning of the year. The CDA only adjusts if the allocation changes significantly and noted no significant changes to the estimate. Effect: Costs could be charged to the wrong program. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend the CDA designs controls to ensure that employees' time is charged to the correct program in the financial statements. Any allocations that are used at the beginning of the year should be evaluated regularly and updated if there are changes in how employee's time is spent. Views of responsible officials: We agree with the findings of 2021-002 ? Payroll Time and Effort Reporting

Federal Program Title: Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Cluster Assistance Listing Number: 14.871 Recommendation: CLA recommends the CDA designs controls to ensure that employees? time is charged to the correct program in the financial statements.

Action taken in response to finding: Management created a spreadsheet tool to track an employee?s actual hours worked as reflected on approved timesheets. Although this spreadsheet was created in July, 2022, reflecting actual timesheet data through the first six months of 2022, it will be updated monthly by the Community Services Analyst, and reviewed on a quarterly basis by the Assistant Director, to ensure that an employee?s actual time worked is being allocated to the correct program.
