Honorable Roy E. Barnes, Governor Members of the General Assembly of Georgia Members of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia
and Honorable William A. Bloodworth, Jr., President Augusta State University
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S COMBINED REPORT ON REVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have reviewed the accompanying financial statements (Exhibits A through D) ofAugusta State University as of and for the year ended June 30, 2001, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of Augusta State University.
A review consists principally ofinquiries ofUniversity personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an

OpInIOn.
Based on our review, with the exception ofthe matters described in the fourth and fifth paragraphs, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica.
As disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require encumbrances to be recorded as a reservation of fund balance. However, in accordance with Georgia Law and State budgetary policy, management recorded encumbrances as expenditures and liabilities. The effects of this departure from accounting . principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica on the financial statements were not reasonably determinable.
01ARL-67


As disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the University did not report the liability and related expenditure for compensated absences in the current funds as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. If compensated absences were reported, liabilities would be increased and fund balance would be decreased by $1 ,033,551.16 as of June 30, 2001, and the net change in fund balance for the year ended June 30, 2001, would be decreased by $98,953.05.
Our review was made for the purpose of expressing limited assurance that there are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica. The accompanying combining statements (Exhibits E through G) and the financial schedules (Schedules 1 through 5) are presented for supplementary analysis.purposes. Such information has been subjected to the inquiries and analytical procedures applied in the review ofthe financial statements, and except for the effects of the matters discussed in the fourth and fifth paragraphs, we are not aware of any material modifications which should be made thereto.
Respectfully submitted,

AUGUSTA STATE UNNERSITY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2001

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY
Augusta State University is one of thirty-four (34) State supported member institutions of higher education in Georgia which comprise the University System ofGeorgia, an organizational unit ofthe State of Georgia. The accompanying financial statements reflect the operations of Augusta State University as a separate reporting entity.
The Board of Regents has constitutional authority to govern, control and manage the University System ofGeorgia. This authority includes but is not limited to the power to designate management, the ability to significantly influence operations, the authority to control institutions' budgets, the power to determine allotments of State funds to member institutions and the authority to prescribe accounting systems and administrative policies for member institutions. Augusta State University does not have authority to retain unexpended State appropriations (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, Augusta State University is considered an organizational unit ofthe Board ofRegents ofthe University System ofGeorgia reporting entity for financial reporting purposes because ofthe significance ofits legal, operational, and financial relationships with the Board ofRegents as defined in Section 2100 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards.
FUND ACCOUNTING
In order to ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on the use of the resources available to the University, the accounts of the University are maintained in accordance with the principles of fund accounting. This is the procedure by which resources for various purposes are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds that are in accordance with activities or objectives specified. Separate accounts are maintained for each fund; however, in the accompanying financial statements, funds that have similar characteristics have been combined into fund groups. Accordingly, all financial transactions have been recorded and reported by fund group.
Within each fund group, the University's fund balance allocations and designations represent those portions ofthe fund balances that are reserved, restricted and/or designated for specific future use by legal covenants, State policies, or institutional policies.
Fund groups and funds presented in the accompanying financial statements are as follows:
CURRENT FUNDS
UNRESTRICTED - The fund used to account for those economic resources over which the University retains full control to use for purposes of performing the primary functions of the University, e.g., instruction, research, public service, etc.
RESTRICTED - The fund used to record externally restricted funds which may only be utilized in
accordance with the purposes established by their source. Restricted current funds are recorded as revenues and expenditures when expended for current operating purposes.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
FUND ACCOUNTING
LOAN FUNDS
The fund used to account for resources which have been made available for financial loans to students.

ENDOWMENT FUNDS
The fund used to account for gifts that are subject to restrictions by the donors requiring that the principal be invested in perpetuity and income only be utilized.
PLANT FUNDS
UNEXPENDED - The fund used to account for financial resources utilized to acquire or to construct physical properties for institutional purposes.
RENEWALS AND REPLACEMENTS - The fund used to account for resources set aside for the renewal and replacement of institutional properties.
INVESTMENT IN PLANT - The fund which shows the total amounts representing the book value of all physical properties owned by the University. Net Investment in Plant is an equity account showing the total book value ofphysical properties belonging to the University less the amount of any indebtedness to others.
AGENCY FUNDS
The fund used to account for resources held by the University as custodian or fiscal agent for individual students, faculty, staff members, and organizations.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Except as otherwise disclosed in these notes, the financial statements are prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting, which is materially the same as the accrual basis of accounting applicable to colleges and universities prescribed in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' audit guide reporting model. The modified accrual basis ofaccounting is defined as that method ofaccounting in which expenditures, other than accrued interest on general long-term debt, are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred and revenues are recorded when available and measurable to finance expenditures of the fiscal period.
Contractual obligations for goods and services which have not been received at the end ofthe fiscal year are recognized as expenditures and liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. This accounting practice causes expenditure-driven grant revenues to be accrued based, in part, on the

AUGUSTA STATE UNNERSITY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2001

EXHIBIT "D"

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING unexecuted portion of contracts for goods and services. The recognition of encumbrances as expenditures and liabilities is in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia, but is not consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica, which provide for the recording ofencumbrances as a reservation of fund balance. Further, revenue recognition for expenditure-driven grants should be based upon expenditures determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Compensated absences represent obligations ofthe University relating to employees' rights to receive compensation for future absences based upon services already rendered. This obligation relates only to vesting accumulated annual leave in which payment is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The compensated absences liability of$1,033,55l.16 and a related net current year expenditure of $98,953.05 have not been reported in the current funds as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Prior period adjustments and certain other items are reported as additions to and deductions from fund balances of current funds in the accompanying financial statements. This presentation is in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State ofGeorgia, but differs from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica in that immaterial adjustments should be reported as current period revenues and expenditures. The effect ofthis departure is deemed to be immaterial to the fair presentation ofthe financial statements.
To the extent that Current Funds and Plant Funds are used to finance plant assets, the amounts so provided are accounted for as expenditures. The balances shown on the Combined Balance Sheet as Net Investment in Plant reflect the accumulated expenditures made for plant facilities through Current Funds and Plant Funds and also include expenditures made for plant facilities expended by the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission on behalfofthe University. Donated fixed assets are recorded at fair market value on the date donated. Disposals are deleted at recorded values. No depreciation has been provided on physical plant and equipment.
The Statement of Current FWlds Revenues, Expenditures, and Other Changes is a statement of financial activities of current funds related to the current reporting period. It does not purport to present the results of operations or the net income or loss for the period as would a statement of income or a statement of revenues and expenses.
BUDGET The Board ofRegents ofthe University System ofGeorgia - Administrative Central Office receives State appropriation allotments for units of the University System of Georgia. The appropriated budget is adopted at the Board level and represents appropriations provided by the Amended Appropriations Act of2000-200l. The appropriated budget covers current funds and plant funds, except for Auxiliary Enterprises and Student Activities which are not subject to appropriation. The

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUDGET
allocation ofthe appropriated budget is made to the University by the Administrative Central Office. In addition, the University receives Federal funds and other funds directly and includes these funds in the budget filed with the Administrative Central Office.

A comparison of anticipated funds available and budgeted expenditures by budget unit object class indicates that the following object classes were overspent by the amounts identified below:

Resident Instruction Personal Services: Education, General and Departmental Services Sponsored Operations Capital Outlay

$ 47,6B6.66
$ 9,88B.Rf
$ 60d~9~.42

These overexpenditures of budget constitute a violation of Board of Regents policy, but do not constitute statutory violations of budget authority. Statutory violations of budget authority are reported at the Board object class level.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and Cash Equivalents consist ofpetty cash, demand deposits and cash management pools that have the general characteristics of demand deposit accounts.

INVESTMENTS
Investments are reported at fair value. Funds received by the University as endowments or for restricted purposes are invested according to conditions stipulated by the donor, grantor, or in accordance with the Board of Regents authorizing resolutions. Gains and losses on investment transactions are accounted for in the funds where such assets are recorded.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

INVENTORIES
Inventories ofconsumable supplies are recorded on the consumption method and are valued at cost on the Combined Balance Sheet using the weighted average met,hod.

AUGUSTA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2001
FEDERAL AWARD FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS MATCHING, LEVEL OF EFFORT AND/OR EARMARKING Failure to Provide Institution Capital Contribution Student Financial Aid Cluster Program Federal Perkins Loan Program (CFDA 84.038) Finding Control Number: FA-527-01-01 For the year under review, the Univ.ersity failed to provide the required matching funds for the Institution Capital Contribution for the Federal Perkins Loan Program as required by Federal Regulations (34 CFR 674.19). The University under-matched the program by $798.00. This condition occurred because management failed to adequately monitor controls to ensure that matching requirements were met. Management should establish appropriate procedures to strengthen internal controls and to ensure that matching requirements are met.
