FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS 
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS/PROPERTY MANAGEMENT Failure to Maintain General Fixed Assets Account Group Finding Control Number: FS-8724-01-01 
The Chattahoochee-Flint Regional Educational Service Agency did not maintain a General Fixed Assets Account Group within the formal accounting records. This condition results in the financial statements ofthe Agency being incomplete and not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriate action should be taken by the Agericy to establish accounting controls and procedures to provide for maintenance ofa General Fixed Assets Account Group. These subsidiary records should include an inventory of equipment owned by the Agency and should include, but may not be limited to, date acquired, acquisition cost, estimated replacement cost, location and description. Detailed records should be maintained of all additions and deletions to the General Fixed Assets Account Group.
