Wipfli, LLP noted various accounts were not reconciled in a timely manner, leading to delays in providing the financial information necessary to complete the audit in a timely manner. Based on the lack of timely reconciliation and adjustments made to accounts, a material weakness exists in Turning Point of Central California, Inc.’s internal controls over financial reporting. Criteria – 2 CFR section 200.512(a) requires the reporting package and data collection form be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse the earlier of 30 calendar days after the reports are received from the auditors or nine months after the end of the audit period. Accounts should be reconciled monthly with the adjustments posted timely so that management is relying on accurate financial information to make decisions. Cause – Due to turnover in Turning Point of Central California, Inc.’s finance department, timely analysis, reconciliation of all accounts and preparation of financial statements did not occur. During audit fieldwork, Wipfli, LLP proposed and Turning Point of Central California, Inc. recorded adjustments to various accounts. These accounts and the adjustments made to them are significant to the overall financial statement presentation. Effect – As a result of not reconciling and adjusting certain account balances in a timely manner, a material weakness exists in internal controls. Recommendation – We recommend management and those charged with governance evaluate the operation of the business office and implement adequate and timely closing procedures to ensure that financial statement amounts are being reconciled and adjusted appropriately. View of Responsible Officials – Management agrees with the assessment and has committed to a corrective action plan.
