How we computed this
Counts cover single audit filings by non-profit organizations in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse, for the audit years shown. A finding is one reference number on one report; the findings table has one row per finding and award, so every count is of distinct findings. A finding that cites several requirements is counted under each. A filing is counted as having such a finding when at least one of its findings cites the requirement. Requirements cited by fewer than 100 findings in the audit year have no page of their own; their counts are on the hub.
