Honorable Roy E. Barnes, Governor Members of the General Assembly Members of the State Board of Education 
and Superintendent and Members of the Baldwin County Board of Education 
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S COMBINED REPORT ON GENERAL-PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS 
Ladies and Gentlemen: 
We have audited the accompanying general-purpose financial statements of the Baldwin County Board of Education, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2001, as listed in the table of contents. These general-purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Baldwin County Board of Education's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general-purpose financial statements based on our audit. 
Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 
We did not observe the taking of either the Federal donated commodities inventory or purchased foods inventory at June 30, 2001, nor could we satisfy ourseives as to the accuracy ofthe amounts stated as inventories through alternative procedures. 
 
2001ARL-13 
 
 As described in the notes to the general-purpose financial statements, the Board of Education's financial statements have been prepared using certain accounting practices and policies which, in our opinion, vary in some respects from generally accepted accounting principles. These variances are described as follows: 
'" The general-purpose financial statements of the Board of Education did not contain a General Fixed Assets Account Group to account for property and equipment owned by the Board of Education which should be included to confonn to generally accepted accounting principles. 
'" School activity accounts maintained at the individual schools are not included in the general-purpose financial statements. To confonn to generally accepted accounting principles, these accounts should be included in the general-purpose financial statements. 
The aggregate effects on the general-purpose financial statements of these variances or omissions have not been determined, but are believed to be material. 
In our opinion, except for the effects of such adjustments, if any, on the Special Revenue Fund, as might have been determined to be necessary had we been able to satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy ofthe food service inventories as discussed in the third paragraph, and except for the effects on the general-purpose financial statements of the matters referred to in the preceding paragraph, the general-purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position ofthe Baldwin County Board ofEducation as ofJune 30, 2001, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, in confonnity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated July 12, 2002, on our consideration of the Baldwin County Board of Education's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. That report is an integral part of an audit perfonned in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit. 
Our audit was perfonned for the purpose of fonning an opinion on the general-purpose financial statements of the Baldwin County Board of Education taken as a whole. The accompanying combining statements (Exhibits E through K) and the financial schedules (Schedules 1 through 5), which includes the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards as required by U. S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general-purpose financial statements. Such infonnation has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit ofthe general-purpose financial statements and in our opinion, except for the effect ofadjustments, ifany, on the Special Revenue Fund, as might have been determined to 
2001ARL-13 
 
 be necessary had we been able to satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy ofthe food service inventories as discussed in the third paragraph, and except for the effects ofthe matters referred to in the fourth paragraph, such information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the general-purpose financial statements taken as a whole. 
 
A copy ofthis report has been filed as a permanent record iii the office ofthe State Auditor and made available to the press ofthe State, as provided for by Official Code ofGeorgia Annotated Section 506-24. 
 
Respectfully submitted,

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
REPORTING ENTITY 
The Baldwin County Board of Education (School District) was established under the laws of the State of Georgia and operates under the guidance of a school board elected by the voters and a Superintendent appointed by the Board. The School District is organized as a separate legal entity and has the power to levy taxes and issue bonds. Its budget is not subject to approval by any other entity. Accordingly, the School District is a primary government and consists of all the organizations that compose its legal entity. 
FUND ACCOUNTING 
The School District uses funds and an account group to report on its financial position and the results ofits operations. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating transactions related to certain governmental functions or activities. A fund is a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. An account group is a financial reporting device designed to provide accountability for certain assets and liabilities that are not recorded in the funds because they do not directly affect expendable available financial resources. 
General Fixed Assets are recorded as expenditures in the various funds at the time ofpurchase. A General Fixed Assets Account Group is not presently maintained by the School District. To conform to generally accepted accounting principles, a General Fixed Assets Account Group should be maintained for reporting the cost of assets acquired by governmental fund types. 
Although "school activity accounts" are maintained at the individual schools, neither the assets, liabilities and fund equity, nor the revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances of these accounts are reflected in these financial statements. To conform to generally accepted accounting principles, these accounts should be recorded in the general-purpose financial statements. 
The general-purpose fmancial statements account for all State, Federal, Taxes and Other funds under control of the School District, in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to governmental units, unless otherwise disclosed in these notes. Funds and the account group presented in this report are as follows: 
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES - are used to account for all or most of a School District's educational activities. Governmental Fund Types include: 
GENERAL FUND - the fund used to account for all financial resources of the School District except those required to be accounted for in another fund. These transactions relate to resources obtained and used for services provided by a board of education.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUND - the fund used to account" for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than for major capital projects) that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. These funds are received primarily from the Georgia Department of Education and from the Federal government to accomplish specific educational objectives. 
CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND - the fund used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities. 
DEBT SERVICE FUND - the fund used to account for the accumulation ofresources for, and the payment of, general long-term principal, interest and paying agent fees. 
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPE - the fund used to account for assets held by a government unit in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other government units and/or other funds. This fund includes: 
AGENCY FUNDS - the funds used to account for assets held in a fiduciary capacity for other funds, governments, or individuals. 
ACCOUNT GROUP 
GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT ACCOUNT GROUP - A financial reporting device used to account for general obligation debt outstanding. 
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING 
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements ofthese funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. Their reported fund balance is considered a measure of available spendable resources. 
Liabilities which are expected to be financed from available spendable resources are reported as liabilities in the governmental funds. Other liabilities, which are not expected to be financed from available spendable resources, are reported in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group. 
Agency funds are purely custodial in nature and do not involve measurement ofresults ofoperations. 
Governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis ofaccounting under which: 
Revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become both 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 be used to pay liabilities of

the current period. The School District considers receivables collected within sixty days after yearend to be available and therefore susceptible to accrual. Nonexchange transactions, in which the School District gives (or receives) value without directly receiving (or giving) equal value in exchange, include property taxes, local option sales taxes, intergovernmental grants and donations. Revenue for property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. Revenue from sales taxes is recognized in the fiscal year the resources are received or susceptible to accrual. Revenue from grants and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. 
Expenditures are generally recognized when the related fund liability is incurred. 
A substantial number of personnel of the School District were employed for a one hundred and ninety day period beginning in August 2000 and ending in early June 2001. Employment contracts for these employment periods typically specify that compensation be paid in twelve equal monthly. payments beginning in September 2000 and ending in August 2001. State grants to fund the State's share of these contracts are disbursed to the School District in the same twelve month period. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, salary and fringe benefit expenditures and the related revenue from the State to fund these contracts are recorded in the fiscal period covered by these fmancial statements. 
Agency funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis ofaccounting in recognizing assets and liabilities. 
BUDGET 
The Baldwin County Board of Education's budget is a complete financial plan for the School District's fiscal year and is based upon estimates of expenditures together with probable funding sources. There is no statutory prohibition regarding overexpenditure ofthe budget at any level. The budget for all governmental funds is prepared by fund, function and object. The legal level of budget control was established by the Board at the aggregate level. The budget for governmental funds was prepared on a basis other than generally accepted accounting principles. 
The budget process begins when the School District's administration prepares a tentative budget for the Board's approval. After approval ofthis tentative budget by the Board, such budget is advertised at least once in a newspaper ofgeneral circulation in the locality. At the next regular meeting ofthe Board after advertisement, the Board receives comments on the tentative budget, makes revisions as necessary and adopts a final school budget. This fmal budget is then submitted, in accordance with provisions of the Quality Basic Education Act, OCGA Section 20-2-167(c), to the Georgia Department of Education. The Board may increase or decrease the budget at any time during the year. All unexpended budget authority lapses at fiscal year-end.

which follows Standard and Poor's criteria for AAAm rated money market funds. The pool is not 
registered with the SEC as an investment company but does operate Georgia Fund 1 in a manner consistent with Rule 2a-7 ofthe Investment Company Act of 1940 and is considered to be a Rule 2a7 like pool. The pool's primary objectives are safety of capital, investment income, liquidity and diversification while maintaining principal ($1.00 per share value). Net asset value is calculated weekly to ensure stability. The pool distributes earnings (net of management fees) on a monthly basis and values participant's shares sold and redeemed based on $1.00 per share. Pooled cash and cash equivalents and investments are reported at cost which approximates fair value. The pool does not issue any legally binding guarantees to support the value ofthe shares. Participation in the pool is voluntary and deposits consist of funds from local governments; operating and trust funds of Georgia's state agencies, colleges and universities; and current operating funds of the State of Georgia's General Fund.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS 
Ladies and Gentlemen: 
We have audited the fmancial statements of Baldwin County Board of Education as of and for the year ended June 30, 2001, and have issued our report thereon dated July 12, 2002. This report was qualified for a scope limitation and for various departures from generally accepted accounting principles, as identified in the auditor's report on the general-purpose financial statements. Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. 
We did not observe the taking ofeither the Federal donated commodities inventory or the purchased foods inventory at June 30, 2001, nor could we satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy ofthe amounts stated as inventories through alternative procedures. 
Compliance 
.As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Baldwin County Board of Education's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions oflaws, regulations, contracts and grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination offinancial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective ofour audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results ofour tests disclosed no instances ofnoncompliance that are required to be reported under Government ~uditing Standards. 
2001YB-41 
 
 Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 
 
In planning and perfonning our audit, we considered Baldwin County Board ofEducation's internal control over financial reporting in order to detennine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting. However, we noted a certain matter involving the internal control over financial reporting and its operation that we consider to be a reportable condition. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operation ofthe internal control over financial reporting that, in ourjudgment, could adversely affect Baldwin County Board ofEducation's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data consistent with assertions of management in the financial statements. The reportable .condition is described in the accompanying Schedule ofFindings and Questioned Costs as item FS-6051-01-01. 
 
A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more ofthe internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the nonnal course of perfonning their assigned functions. Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control that might be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses. However, we consider item FS-6051-01-0l to be a material weakness. 
 
This report is intended solely for the infonnation and use of the management, members of the Baldwin County Board ofEducation, Federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

and Superintendent and Members ofthe Baldwin County Board ofEducation 
REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR PRQGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133 
Ladies and Gentlemen: 
Compliance 
We have audited the compliance of Baldwin County Board of Education with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office ofManagement and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to each ofits major Federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2001. Baldwin County Board ofEducation's major Federal programs are identified in the Summary of Auditor's Results Section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to each of its major Federal programs is the responsibility ofBaldwin County Board of Education's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Baldwin County Board of Education's compliance based on our audit. 
We conducted our audit ofcompliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General ofthe United States; and OMB Circular A133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types ofcompliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major Federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Baldwin County Board of Education's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination on Baldwin County Board ofEducation's compliance with those requirements. 
2001SA-IO 
 
 In our opinion, the Baldwin County Board ofEducatIon complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to each of its major Federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2001. 
 
Internal Control Over Compliance 
 
The management of Baldwin County Board of Education is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to Federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered Baldwin County Board ofEducation's internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major Federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133. 
 
Our consideration ofthe internal control over compliance would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation ofone or more ofthe internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level of risk that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants that would be material in relation to a major Federal program being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course ofperforming their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control over compliance and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses. 
 
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the management, members of the Baldwin County Board ofEducation, Federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

I SUMMARY OF AUDITOR'S RESULTS 9. Low Risk Auditee 
The Baldwin County Board of Education did not qualify as a low risk auditee as defined by Section .530 ofOMB Circular A-133. II FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS GENERAL FIXED ASSETS Failure to Maintain General Fixed Assets Account Group Reportable Condition - Material Weakness Repeated from Prior Year Finding Control Number: FS-6051-01-01 The Baldwin County Board of Education did not maintain a system-wide General Fixed Assets Account Group within the fonnal accounting records as required by generally accepted accounting principles. This condition results in the general-purpose financial statements ofthe School District being incomplete and not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriate action should be taken by the School District to establish accounting controls and procedures to provide for maintenance ofa General Fixed Assets Account Group. These subsidiary records should include an inventory of land, buildings and equipment owned by the School District, and should include, but may not be limited to, date acquired, acquisition cost, estimated replacement cost, location and description. Detailed records should be maintained ofall additions and deletions to the General Fixed Assets Account Group. ill FEDERAL AWARD FINDINGS AND OUESTIONED COSTS No matters were reported.
