FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS/PROPERTY MANAGEMENT Failure to Maintain General Fixed Assets Account Group Finding Control Number: FS-8544-98-01
The Pioneer Regional Educational Service Agency does not maintain a General Fixed Assets Account Group within the formal accounting records. This condition results in the general purpose financial statements of the Agency being incomplete and not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriate action should be taken by the Agency to establish accounting controls and procedures to provide for maintenance of a 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.
