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 E) of the Department of Defense as of and for the year ended June 30, 1995, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. As described in Note 1, these financial statements were prepared on a prescribed basis of accounting that demonstrates compliance with the budgetary statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of the Department of Defense. 
A review consists principally of inquiries of agency personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, 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, 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 the basis of accounting described in Note 1. 
Our review was made for the purpose ofexpressing limited assurance that there were no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with the basis of accounting described in Note 1. The accompanying supplementary information (Schedules 1 through 6) is presented only for supplementary analysis purposes. Such information has been subjected to the inquiries and

 analytical procedures applied in the review of the financial statements and we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made thereto. 
Respectfully submitted,

NOTE I: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
REPORTING ENTITY The Department ofDefense, an organizational unit of the State of Georgia, is part ofthe executive branch of the government of the State of Georgia. The Department was created by an act of the General Assembly (O.C.G.A 38-2-130), and presently consists ofa Military Division and Administrative Services Division. The Adjutant General is the Executive Officer ofthe Department. The tenure of office of the Adjutant General is at the pleasure ofthe Governor, who is designated as Commander-in-Chiefof all militia and other military and naval forces ofthe State of Georgia. 
The Department of Defense does not have authority to determine the amount offunding it will receive from the State of Georgia for any given fiscal year. Such authority is vested in the General Assembly of Georgia. The Department also does not have authority to retain unexpended State appropriations (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, the Department ofDefense is included within the State of Georgia reporting entity for financial reporting purposes because of the significance of its legal, operational and financial relationships with the State of Georgia. These reporting entity relationships are defined in Section 2100 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards. 
FUND ACCOUNTING The Department ofDefense uses a fund and account groups to report on its financial position and the results ofits operations determined in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State of Georgia. A fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds are maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. Account groups are a reporting device used to account for certain assets and liabilities of the governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds. The fund and account groups presented in the accompanying financial statements are as follows: 
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE 
BUDGET FUND - The fund used to account for activities and functions as set forth in the Amended Appropriations Act of 1994-199S. The Budget Fund is similar in nature to a General Fund as identified in generally accepted accounting principles in that the Budget Fund is used to account for all activities except those required to be accounted for in some other fund. 
ACCOUNT GROUPS 
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS - The account group used to account for fixed assets used in governmental fund type operations. Fixed assets purchased are recorded at cost or at estimated historical cost if historical cost is not practically determinable. 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 general fixed assets.

NOTE I: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
FUND ACCOUNTING 
ACCOUNT GROUPS 
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS The cost ofnormal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value ofthe asset or materially extend assets' lives are not included in the General Fixed Assets Account Group. Material improvements adding to the value or useful life of the assets are included in the General Fixed Assets Account Group. 
GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT - The account group used to report the noncurrent portions ofcertain governmental long-term liabilities, such as claims, judgments and compensated absences, which will be paid from future resources. 
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING MEASUREMENT FOCUS 
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. Governmental funds should be accounted for using the flow ofcurrent financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, operating statements present increases and decreases in net current assets and unreserved fund balance is a measure ofavailable spendable resources. In accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia, the Budget Fund remits its unreserved fund balance (surplus) to the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services in the subsequent fiscal year. 
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE BUDGETFUND 
Except as disclosed in the following paragraphs, units of government of the State of Georgia record their Budget Fund revenues and expenditures in accordance with the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis ofaccounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they are "measurable and available"). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. Revenues that are accrued include primarily State appropriations, Federal grants and entitlements, and certain amounts earned under operating agreements with other parties. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for unmatured interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due, and certain compensated absences, claims and judgements which are recognized when the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. 
Contractual obligations for services which have not been performed and for goods which have not been delivered at the end of the 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 unexecuted portion of contracts for goods and services. The recognition ofencumbrances as expenditures and liabilities is in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State ofGeorgia, but is not consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, which

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE BUDGETFUND 
provide for the recording of encumbrances as a reservation of fund balance. Further, revenue recognition for expenditure-driven grants should be based upon expenditures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 
Prior period adjustments and certain other items are reported as additions to and deductions from fund balances ofthe Budget Fund in the accompanying financial statements. This presentation is in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia, but differs from generally accepted accounting principles in that immaterial adjustments should be reported as current period revenues and expenditures. 
BUDGET Appropriation allotments to the Department of Defense are on the basis of a budget submitted by the Department and approved by the Legislature and the Governor. The budget is adopted on a basis consistent with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia and is compiled in the same manner as all State departments. Expenditures are classified by budget unit object classes as provided in Act No. 1208 of Georgia Laws 1994 (as approved April 18, 1994) and amended by Act No. 6 of Georgia Laws 1995 (as approved February 22, 1995), which is an appropriated budget and is referred to in these notes as the Amended Appropriations Act of 1994-1995. 
Overexpenditure of a budget unit object class, except for the "common object classes", included in the Department's final amended budget is in violation of Section 80 of the 1994-1995 Amended Appropriations Act. Expenditures ofno more than 102% of the stated amount for each common object class are authorized by Section 80. However, the total expenditure for the group of common object classes may not exceed the sum of the stated amounts for the separate object classes ofthe group. The common object classes include Personal Services, Regular Operating Expenses, Travel, Motor Vehicle Purchases, Equipment, Computer Charges, Real Estate Rentals, Telecommunications and Postage. 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and Cash Equivalents include currency on hand and demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions. 
INVENTORIES No inventories ofsupplies are reported in the current financial statements. Expendable supplies are recorded as expenditures at the time of purchase. 
RESERVED FUND BALANCE Reserves represent those portions of fund equity not appropriable for expenditure or legally segregated for a specific future use. The following is a brief description of the reserves reflected in the accompanying financial statements:

NOTE I: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
RESERVED FUND BALANCE 
FEDERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE The residual portion ofFederal financial assistance revenues not yet expended or encumbered. This amount is restricted for expenditure in future years. This accounting treatment differs from generally accepted accounting principles in that the unearned portion of Federal financial assistance should be reflected as deferred revenue. 
ARMORY FUNDS The residual portion ofnonappropriated revenues not yet expended or encumbered for all State National Guard Armories. Balances in this fund are reserved so that no part thereof will be deposited in the general treasury. 
BILLETING FUNDS The residual portion of nonappropriated revenues not yet expended or encumbered for all State billeting funds. Balances in this fund are reserved each year so that no part thereof will be deposited in the general treasury. 
UNRESERVED FUND BALANCE In accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia, the Budget Fund's unreserved fund balance is remitted to the Office ofTreasury and Fiscal Services in the subsequent fiscal year as surplus. This amount ofunexpended general appropriations is available to the State for reappropriation in subsequent years. 
COMPENSATED ABSENCES Compensated absences represent obligations of the Department relating to employee's rights to receive compensation for future absences based upon services already rendered. This obligation relates only to vesting accumulating annual leave in which payment is probable and can be reasonably estimated. No liability has been recorded in the individual funds for the current portion of this obligation as this amount will not be liquidated with expendable available financial resources.

NOTES: RISKMANAGEMENT 
 
Public Entity Risk Pool 
 
The State Personnel Board, Merit System ofPersonnel Administration internally administers for the State of Georgia a program of health benefits for the employees ofunits ofgovernment ofthe State of Georgia and units of county government and local education agencies located within the State of Georgia. This plan is funded by participants covered in the plan, by employers' contributions paid by the various units of government participating in the plan, and appropriations made by the General Assembly of Georgia. The State Personnel Board, Merit System ofPersonnel Administration has contracted with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Georgia to process claims in accordance with the State Employees' Health Benefit Plan as established by the State Personnel Board. 
 
Other Risk Management 
 
The Department ofAdministrative Services (DOAS) has the responsibility for the State of Georgia of making and carrying out decisions that will minimize the adverse effects of accidental losses that involve State government assets. The State believes it is more economical to manage its risks internally and set aside assets for claim settlement. Accordingly, DOAS services claims for risk of loss to which the State is exposed, including general liability, property and casualty, workers' compensation, unemployment compensation, and law enforcement officers' indemnification. Limited amounts of commercial insurance is purchased applicable to property, employee and automobile liability, fidelity and certain other risks. The Department ofDefense is part of the State of Georgia reporting entity, and as such, is covered by the State of Georgia risk management program administered by DOAS. Premiums for the risk management program are charged to the state agencies by DOAS to provide claims servicing and claims payment. 
 
NOTE 6: DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 
 
The State ofGeorgia offers its employees a deferred compensation plan in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The plan, available to employees of the State of Georgia and county health departments, permits such employees to defer a portion oftheir salary until future years. Participation in the plan is optional. Participants choose the option or options in which they wish to participate. The deferred compensation is not

available to employees until termination, retirement, death, or unforeseeable emergency. All amounts of compensation deferred under the plan, all property and rights purchased with those amounts, and all income attributable to those amounts, property, or rights are (until paid or made available to the employee or other beneficiary) solely the property or rights of the State of Georgia subject only to the claims of the State's general creditors. Participant's rights under the plan are equal to those of a general creditor of the State of Georgia in an amount equal to the fair market value of the deferred account of each participant. Financial information relative to the plan is presented in the financial report ofthe State Personnel Board - Merit System ofPersonnel Administration for the year ended June 30, 1995. 
NOTE7: RETIREMENTPLANS 
EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA 
Plan Description The Department ofDefense participates in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia ("ERS"), a singleemployer, defined benefit plan established by the General Assembly of Georgia for the purpose of providing retirement allowances for employees of the State of Georgia. The Department's payroll for the year ended June 30, 1995, for employees covered by ERS was $5,924,144.14. The Department's total payroll for all employees was $10,318,941.50. 
Benefits The benefit structure ofERS was significantly modified on July 1, 1982. Unless elected otherwise, an employee who currently maintains membership with ERS based upon State employment that started prior to July 1, 1982, is an "old plan" member subject to the plan provisions in effect prior to July 1, 1982. All other members are "new plan" members subject to the modified plan provisions. 
Members become vested after IO years of creditable service. A member may retire and receive normal retirement benefits after completion of 10 years of creditable service and attainment of age 65. Retirement benefits paid to members are based upon a formula which considers the monthly average of the member's highest eight consecutive calendar quarters of salary, the number of years of creditable service, and the member's age at retirement. Postretirement cost-of-living adjustments are also made to member's benefits. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life; however, options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension at reduced rates to a designated beneficiary upon the member's death. Death and disability benefits are also available through ERS. If IO years of service is completed and age 60 is reached, the member may retire with a reduced benefit. Additionally, there are certain provisions allowing for retirement after 30 years of service regardless of age. 
Contributions Required and Contributions Made Under the old plan, member contributions consist of employee contributions paid by the employee of 1.25% ofannual compensation and 4.75% ofannual compensation paid by the Department on behalf of the employee. Under the new plan, member contributions consist solely of 1.25% of annual compensation paid by employee.

Contributions Required and Contributions Made The Department also is required to contnbute at a specified percentage of active member payroll determined annually by actuarial valuation. For the year ended June 30, 1995, the ERS employer contribution rate for the Department amounted to 14.85% of covered payroll and included the 4.75% contributed on behalf of the employee referred to above. Contributions are also made on amounts paid for accumulated leave of retiring employees. 
 
Total contributions to the plan made during fiscal year 1995 amounted to $960,378.25, ofwhich $886,324.86 was made by the Department and $74,053.39 was made by employees. These contributions met the requirements of the plan. 
 
Funding Status and Progress Pension Benefit Obligation 
The amount shown as the "pension benefit obligation" is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value ofpension benefits, adjusted for the effects ofprojected salary increases and step-rate benefits, estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The measure is intended to help users assess the funding status ofERS on the going-concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due and make comparisons among employers. The measure is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits, and is independent of the funding method used to determine contributions to the plan. 
 
The pension benefit obligation was computed as part of an actuarial valuation performed as of June 30, 1994. Significant actuarial assumptions used in the valuation include the following: 
 
1) The present value offuture pension benefits paid was computed using a discounted rate of 7.5 percent. This rate is also the same rate assumed to be earned on investments in the plan in future years. 
 
2) Future pension payments reflect the following assumed salary increases as a result ofinflation and merit increases: 
 
~ 20 25 30 35 40 to 65 
 
Percentage 9.5% 8.5% 6.5% 6.0% 5.7%

3) ERS has the authority to grant cost-of-living adjustments by state statute. As ofJune 30, 1994, cost-ofliving adjustments have been included in the pension benefit obligation. 
 
The total unfunded pension benefit obligation ofERS as of June 30, 1994, was $310,149,000, as follows: 
 
Pension Benefit Obligation:

Net Assets Available for Benefits 
 
4 858 015 000

$ 310149000 
 
The measurement ofthe total pension benefit obligation is based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 1994. Net assets available for benefits were valued as of the same date. ERS does not make separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligation for individual employers. 
 
Funding Policy The ERS funding policy provides for periodic employer contributions at actuarially determined rates that, expressed as percentages ofannual payroll, are sufficient to accumulate sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. Level percentage of payroll employer contribution rates are determined using the entry age funding method. ERS also uses the level percentage of payroll method to amortize the unfunded liability within approximately 20 years following the valuation date.

Total contributions from all employers to ERS for the year ended June 30, 1995, were $256,624,679.00. The Department's contnbution was actuarially determined and represented 0.35% oftotal contributions made by all participating employers. 
Significant actuarial assumptions used to compute contributions are the same as those used to compute the standardized measure of pension obligation. 
Trend Information Historical trend information is presented in the financial report ofERS for the year ended June 30, 1995. This information gives an indication of the progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. 
GEORGIA DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN 
Plan Description The Department ofDefense participates in the Georgia Defined Contribution Plan ("GDCP") which is a singleemployer defined contribution plan established by the Georgia General Assembly in July 1993 for the purpose ofproviding retirement coverage for State employees who are temporary, seasonal, and part-time and are not members of a public retirement or pension system. GDCP is administered by the Employees' Retirement System Board ofTrustees. The Department's payroll for the year ended June 30, 1995, for employees covered by GDCP was $67,251.70. The Department's total payroll for all employees was $10,318,941.50. 
Benefits A member may retire and elect to receive periodic payments after attainment of age 65. The payment will be based upon mortality tables and interest assumptions to be adopted by the Board. If a member has less than $ 3,500 credit to his/her account, the Board has the option ofrequiring a lump sum distribution to the member in lieu of making periodic payments. Upon the death of a member, a lump sum distribution equaling the amount credited to his/her account will be paid to the member's designated beneficiary. 
Contributions and Vesting Member contributions are seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of gross salary. There are no employer contributions. Earnings are credited to each member's account in a manner established by the Board. Upon termination of employment, the amount of the member's account is refundable upon request by the member. 
Total contributions made by employees during fiscal year 1995 amounted to $5,043.97 which represents 7.50% of covered payroll. These contributions met the requirements of the plan.

The review report for the year ended June 30, 1994, noted that internal accounting control procedures ofthe Department of Defense did not provide for an adequate separation of duties in the performance of certain accounting functions and related procedures. For the year under review, a limited review of these procedures revealed that the Department had made no significant changes that would provide for an adequate separation of duties in the following control categories: 
 
(1) Cash and Cash Equivalents 
 
(2) Revenues/Receivables/Receipts 
 
(3) General Ledger 
 
(4) General Fixed Assets/Property Management 
 
The Department should review the accounting procedures in place, design procedures which would enhance segregation ofduties relative to the above control categories, and implement those procedures to strengthen the internal controls over the accounting function.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Inadequate Bank Reconciliation Procedures Financial Statements Audit Control Number 411-95-02 
For the year ended June 30, 1995, the Department ofDefense's accounting procedures were insufficient to provide for adequate control over the bank reconciliation process for armory bank accounts. The following deficiencies were noted: 
1. Certain bank accounts were not properly reconciled to the armory's subsidiary ledger or the Department's general ledger. 
2. Certain bank statements were not available for examination. 
3. One armory's bank account was closed during the year under review, but a cash balance remained on the Department's general ledger as ofJune 30, 1995. 
The Department ofDefense should establish the necessary procedures to ensure that armory bank accounts are properly reconciled on a monthly basis and agree with subsidiary ledgers and the Department's general ledger. 
GENERAL LEDGER Deficiencies in Accounting Procedures Financial Statements Audit Control Number 411-95-03 
For the year ended June 30, 1995, certain armory subsidiary ledgers did not balance to the Department's general ledger. The Accounting Procedures and Instructions manual, as published by the State Auditor, states that at the end of each accounting period all subsidiary ledger amounts should be reconciled with the general ledger control account. The above situation occurred because the Department's accounting procedures were insufficient to provide for adequate controls over the balancing of armory subsidiary ledgers to the Department's general ledger. 
The Department ofDefense should establish the necessary procedures to ensure that armory subsidiary ledgers are accurately and timely balanced to the Department's general ledger.
