2007-2008 Audit Summary Worksheet

The following information is provided for independent school auditors. The manual and respective program will enable the auditors to prepare the Audit Summary Worksheet, which is required by the New Jersey Department of Education. Some of these files are large and may require significant time and computer resources.

Again this year, the independent school auditor must submit the audsum diskette, along with the transmittal letter, to the school district. The school district will be responsible for transmission of the audit summary data via the web enabled DOENET.  

As a reminder, the data submitted on the audit summary worksheet diskette will be automatically downloaded into the 2009-2010 school district budget programs for the 2007-2008 actual columns.  Therefore, the board secretaries/business administrators must receive copies of all reports generated from the diskette so they can attest to the accuracy of the data and sign off on the transmittal letter.  If discrepancies in the 2007-2008 information are identified when the district receives the 2009-2010 budget program, corrections to these actual numbers can only be made through the submission of a new audit summary worksheet diskette by your office.  This restriction has been our practice for the past ten years.  In addition, we are asking that the special revenue funds be reported in the Audit Summary Worksheet on a budgetary basis of accounting as presented in the Combining Schedule of Revenues and Expenditures.

A transmittal letter will automatically print when transferring the data to the DOE diskette.  The transmittal letter and diskette should be sent to the school district. Both the auditor and the board secretary/business administrator should sign the transmittal letter.  The completed diskette should be used in the transmission of the audsum data via Web Enabled DOENET by the school district. The transmittal letter should be sent by November 5, 2008 to:
