Jan. 22 Webinar to Offer Guidance on New Policies for Implementing the Single Audit Act
Washington, DC (PRWEB) January 12, 2015 -- New Single Audit Act implementing policies are now part of a much bigger package and have a brand-new name — “Subpart F.” That’s Subpart F of 2 CFR 200, the Office of Management and Budget’s Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements. The Jan. 22 Federal Fund Management Advisor webinar, “Making the Single Audit Transition — Moving from Circular A-133 to 'Subpart F'” will help organizations understand the new policies and how to smoothly transition to them.
In 60 minutes of presentation followed by 30 minutes devoted to individual questions, Federal Fund Management Advisor Principal Bob Lloyd will provide answers to these, and many other, questions:
• Which portions of the uniform guidance will kick in first and how?
• What does OMB mean when it mandates that an organization’s single audit history be used in making future grant award decisions?
• What will the fallout be from the increased threshold, and when will the change take effect?
• How long will certain A-133 provisions continue to affect the audit process and the resolution of audit findings? In what ways?
• What changes have been made in instructions to auditors about risk assessment?
• How will auditors’ determinations of major federal programs change?
• What is the future for the OMB Compliance Supplement?
• What impact have changes in government and industry audit standards had on the new policies?
• How has OMB tightened the requirements for submission of audit reporting packages, and the criteria for being treated as a “low risk auditee”?
