Cause: The start of the Organization’s audit was delayed due to delays in closing the books and transmitting payments. Effect: Failure to complete the audit and submit the data collection form and reporting package timely could result in a failure to meet the requirements imposed by Federal grantor agencies and by the Uniform Guidance. Recommendation: Marshall Jones recommends that the Organization establish a process to close their year-end books in a timely manner and begin the audit well in advance of the filing deadline for the data collection form and reporting package.

Corrective Action Plan

Views of Responsible auditee officials: The only staff member to not submit a timesheet was the CEO. All other staff members prepared bi-weekly timesheets. There are a few resources whose nature and daily work product supports several grants. As a result, it was determined that the best methodology to most accurately assign time to specific grants and programs for those resources was to establish estimates of time spent based on historical activity. This historically based allocation was not only used in preparing grant budgets, but also allocating actual time. The Organization will implement quarterly reviews of the established time allocations to true up, if necessary, and recalibrate for the next quarter?s time allocation.

Views of Responsible auditee officials: The fourth quarter report and annual report in question was submitted timely, however, due to the change in CEO?s, the email approval notifications were not received by the new CEO as they were directed to the former CEO?s email. As soon as the nonapproval was brought to our attention, the new CEO was immediately added as the primary approver in the grantor?s system for future notifications which allowed him to approve the previously submitted report. The Organization?s CEO is now receiving approval notifications and will be approving future quarterly reports on a timely basis.

Context: During our testing of allowable costs, out of a sample of 40 expenditures, the Organization could not provide support for 5 expenditures that totaled $9,607. Questioned Costs: $9,607 Effect: The Organization could not provide support for expenditures, therefore controls and compliance could not be tested.
