SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYREPEAT OF 2023-001

The available office staff precludes a proper segregation of duties in the following control areas: payroll, cash receipts, and cash disbursements. Effect: Because of the lack of segregation of duties, errors or irregularities could occur and not be detected on a timely basis. Cause: Due to the small size of the District there is only one person in the bookkeeping department, who records all transactions and performs reconciliations. Criteria: Checks and balances should be in place to allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct any misstatements on a timely basis. Recommendation: Procedures should be implemented segregating duties among different employees. Management should continue to maintain a working knowledge of matters relating to the District’s operations. Response: We agree with this finding but due to the size of our District and financial constraints do not believe it is cost effective to increase the office staff in an attempt to bring about a more effective segregation of duties. The Board of Education and Administration personnel review monthly treasurer reports, and approve disbursements monthly. Any concerns or questions are addressed throughout the year. Management will review various accounting functions periodically.
