Finding2Rec.2

Recommendation text

Direct UAF to strengthen its administrative and management processes and training procedures for ensuring that it appropriately applies indirect costs to costs charged to Federal awards. Updated processes could include: a. Requiring an annual review of sponsored award accounts that UAF established to track participant support costs to ensure that the accounts do not apply indirect costs. b. Requiring that personnel manually review purchase card transactions that exceed $5,000 to evaluate whether UAF should account for the purchase(s) as equipment.
