Form 990 Part XII Line 2cDue to small size of the Board, the AREF Board of Directors (Board) serves as the Audit Committee. The Board is responsible for overseeing management's financial, accounting and reporting processes, the system of internal accounting and financial controls and compliance with related legal, regulatory and ethical requirements. In recent years, the Board delegated the interview and recommended selection to a small committee headed by the Treasurer. This committee reviewed several applications, ranked them and provided a recommendation to the full Board for discussion and vote. During discussion, the Board reviewed the qualifications, independence and performance of the independent registered public accounting firm (Auditor). AREF utilizes Auditor for the purpose of testing, reviewing and certifying that the financial processes are in accordance with the appropriate rules and regulations that AREF works under. Auditor prepares and issues an audit report or related work to the full AREF Board at the end of each audit cycle. The Board has full access to all books, records, facilities and personnel of AREF, as well as Auditor.
