AUDIT
5.1 As a necessary part of this Agreement, the BUSINESS shall adhere to the following audit
requirements, as applicable:
5.1.1 If the BUSINESS expends $750,000 or more in federal funds during its fiscal year, it shall
have a Single or a Program -Specific Audit conducted for that year. Such Audit must be
conducted in accordance with General Accepted Government Auditing Standards
(GAGAS.)
a) Single Audit. A single audit must be conducted in accordance with 2 CFR 200.514
"Scope of Audit", except when the BUSINESS elects to have a Program -Specific
Audit conducted in accordance with paragraph b) of this section.
b) Program -Specific Audit. When a BUSINESS expends federal awards under only one
federal program and the federal program's statutes, regulations, or the terms and
conditions of the federal award do not require a financial statement audit of the
BUSINESS, the BUSINESS may elect to have a Program -Specific Audit conducted in
accordance with 2 CFR 200.507 "Program -Specific Audits".
The auditor must:
(i) Perform an audit of the financial statement(s) for the Federal program in
accordance to GAGAS;
(ii) Obtain an understanding of internal controls and perform tests of internal
controls over the Federal program consistent with the requirements of 2 CFR
200.514(c) to ensure compliance with procedures;
(iii) Perform procedures to determine whether the BUSINESS has complied with
Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of Federal awards
that could have a direct and material effect on the Federal program consistent
with the requirements of 2 CFR 200.514(d).
(iv) Follow up on prior audit findings, perform procedures to assess the
reasonableness of the summary schedule of prior audit findings prepared by
the BUSINESS in accordance with the requirements of 2 CFR 200.511 "Audit
findings follow-up", and report, as a current year audit finding, when the
auditor concludes that the summary schedule of prior audit findings materially
misrepresents the status of any prior audit fording; and
(v) Report any audit findings consistent with the requirements of 2 CFR 200.516
"Audit findings".
The auditor's report(s) must state that the audit was conducted in accordance with this
8
2 CFR 200.507 "Program -Specific Audits" and include the following:
(i) An opinion (or disclaimer of opinion) as to whether the financial statement(s)
of the Federal program is presented fairly in all material respects in accordance
with the stated accounting policies;
(ii) A report on internal control related to the Federal program, which must
describe the scope of testing of internal control and the results of the tests;
(iii) A report on compliance which includes an opinion (or disclaimer of opinion)
as to whether the BUSINESS complied with laws, regulations, and the terms
and conditions of Federal awards which could have a direct and material effect
on the Federal program; and
(iv) A schedule of findings and questioned costs for the Federal program that
includes a summary of the auditor's results relative to the Federal program in
a format consistent with 2 CFR 200.515 "Audit reporting", paragraph (d)(1)
and findings and questioned costs consistent with the requirements of 2 CFR
200.515 "Audit reporting", paragraph (d)(3).
5.1.2 If the BUSINESS expends less than $750,000 in federal funds during its fiscal year, it is
exempted from federal audit requirements for that year and consequently the audit cost is
not a reimbursable expense. The CITY, however, may request the BUSINESS to have a
limited scope audit for monitoring purposes. These limited scope audits will be paid for
and arranged by the CITY and address only one or more of the following types of
compliance requirements: activities allowed or not allowed; allowable costs/cost
principles; eligibility; matching, level of effort, earmarking; and, reporting.
All reports presented to the CITY shall, where applicable, include sufficient information
to provide a proper perspective for judging the prevalence and consequences of the
findings, such as whether an audit finding represents an isolated instance or a systemic
problem. Where appropriate, instances identified shall be related to the universe and the
number of cases examined and quantified in terms of dollar value.
