Auditors use professional judgement to rate the audit findings identified in certain audit reports. For

each report, the issue ratings are summarized in the report chapters/subchapters. Auditors

determine the ratings based on the degree of risk or effect of the findings in relation to the audit

objective(s).

In determining the ratings of audit findings, auditors consider factors such as financial impact; potential failure to

meet program/function objectives; noncompliance with state statute(s), rules, regulations, and other

requirements or criteria; and the inadequacy of the design and/or operating effectiveness of internal controls. In

addition, evidence of potential fraud, waste, or abuse; significant control environment issues; and little-to-no

corrective action for issues previously identified could increase the ratings for audit issues. Auditors also identify

and consider other factors when appropriate.

*The SAO rates findings only for performance audits.

3

The audit identified strengths that support the audited entity’s ability to

administer the program(s)/functions(s) audited or the issues identified do not

present significant risks or effects that would negatively affect the audited

entity’s ability to effectively administer the program(s)/function(s) audited.

Issues identified present risks or effects that if not addressed could

moderately affect the audited entity’s ability to effectively administer

program(s)/function(s) audited. Action is needed to address the noted

concern(s) and reduce risks to a more desirable level.

Issues identified present risks or effects that if not addressed could

substantially affect the audited entity’s ability to effectively administer the

program(s)/function(s) audited. Prompt action is essential to address the

noted concern(s) and reduce risks to the audited entity.

Issues identified present risks or effects that if not addressed could critically

affect the audited entity’s ability to effectively administer the

program(s)/function(s) audited. Immediate action is required to address the

noted concern(s) and reduce risks to the audited entity.
