Management decision deadline — for entities that funded this organization
The FAC accepted this audit on February 11, 2021. Under 2 CFR 200.521(d), a pass-through entity that provided federal funds to this organization for this audit period must issue a management decision on these findings by August 11, 2021 (1839 days ago).
What is a management decision? →The unemployment insurance contribution rate as set by the Commonwealth of Kentucky decreased during 2020. Gateway Community Action Agency, Inc. continued to charge its programs outdated contribution rates after this change, which resulted in overcharging the programs for unemployment insurance expense during the year ended June 30, 2020. The significant overcharges were corrected during the audit, so there is no compliance finding or questioned costs reported. Criteria: The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for HHS Awards, 42 CFR section 75.403(a) states that costs must be necessary and reasonable for the performance of the Federal award and be allocable thereto under these principles in order for the costs to be allowable under Federal awards. Cause: Prior to the audit, Gateway Community Action Agency, Inc. did not adjust unemployment insurance charges to actual as of June 30, 2020. Effect: Since the discrepancy was not corrected prior to the audit, an internal control deficiency over the allowability of unemployment insurance expense is reported. Recommendation: We recommend Gateway Community Action Agency, Inc. implement controls to ensure the proper charging of unemployment insurance expense to programs.
