<br />Sample Government, FLORIDA <br /> <br />SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND RESPONSES <br /> <br />FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 <br />(Continued) <br /> <br />I. CURRENT YEAR COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS (Continued) <br /> <br />Cause <br /> <br />The Purchasing and Accounting Divisions may not be reducing or eliminating old retained percentages <br />that have been satisfied. <br /> <br />Effect <br /> <br />Retained percentages liability accounts may be overstated. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />We suggest that personnel determine the status of the projects related to these outstanding amounts, and <br />the validity of the amounts recorded. <br /> <br />Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action <br /> <br />As a result of measures adopted by Purchasing in FY2007 and refined in 2008, retained percentages more <br />accurately reflect the correct vendor balances, however inactive projects reflected $973,000 at the end of <br />fiscal year 2009. Accounting and Purchasing have actively worked to resolve these balances, which have <br />been reduced to approximately $400,000, $120,000 of which is in litigation. Purchasing and Accounting <br />will work with the remaining agency to resolve its balances. <br /> <br />11 <br />
