SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYREPEAT OF 2021-001

Significant Deficiency: Finding 2022-001 - Lack of Segregation of Duties CONDITION: Lack of segregation of duties due to the small number of employees involved in the accounting function of the District. CRITERIA: Segregation of duties should be in place to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statement is fairly stated and free of material misstatement. CAUSE: Small number of employees in the accounting function makes proper segregation of duties impossible. POTENTIAL EFFECT OF CONDITION: Errors or irregularities could occur that would not be prevented or detected in a timely manner that would cause a misstatement of the financial statement that is more than inconsequential. RECOMMENDATION: To mitigate this deficiency we recommend that the Superintendent and Board of Education consider this condition while performing their monitoring and review of the financial statement activity and reports. CLIENT RESPONSE: The District is in agreement with this finding. The District's response is in the attached Corrective Action Plan.

Corrective Action Plan

Finding 2022-001 - Lack of Segregation of Duties The District understands that this is a significant deficiency but feels it is not cost-effective at this time to hire additional employees to properly segregate duties. We feel that the oversight performed by the Superintendent and Board of Education over the financial statement activity and reports of the District is adequate to help mitigate the lack of segregation of duties. We believe it would be inefficient and cost prohibitive to hire the additional employees needed to properly segregate duties so at this time we do no plan on making any changes. However, we will continue to monitor this situation and periodically determine if it is cost-effective for us to properly segregate duties.
