With the exception ofthe departures from generally accepted accounting principles disclosed in these notes, the financial statement~f the Board have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as applied to government units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting standards. The more significant ofthe Board's accounting policies are described below. REPORTING ENTITY In evaluating how to define the government unit for financial reporting purposes, management has considered the criteria set forth in GASB Codification ofGovernmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards, Section 2100, "Defining the Financial Reporting Entity". The primary government consists of all the organizations that compose the legal entity ofthe Bryan County Board ofEducation. Based upon the application ofthe above criteria, the Bryan County Board ofEducation is determined to be the lowest level of government exercising oversight responsibility and control over all activities related to public education in Bryan County, Georgia. The Board is not included in any other governmental "reporting entity" as defined by GASB Codification ofGovernmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards. Board members were elected by the public and have decision making authority, the power to designate management, except for the Superintendent who was also elected, the ability to significantly influence operations, and primary accountability for fiscal matters. The Board determines the millage rate at which school taxes are levied and may incur bonded indebtedness with voter approval. FUND ACCOUNTING The Board 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 of purchase. A General Fixed Assets Account Group is not presently maintained by the Board. 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. - 6- BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXHIBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note I: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 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 financial statements account for all State, Federal, Local and Other Funds under control ofthe Board, 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 Board's general activities. Governmental Fund Types include: GENERAL FUND - the fund used to account for all financial resources of the Board 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 primarily received from the Georgia Department of Education and from the Federal government to accomplish specific objectives and are required to be accounted for separately. Also included are proceeds received from State, Federal, Local and Other sources for operations of the school food services fund. This fund could be accounted for as an enterprise fund; however, the Board chooses not to provide for depreciation, but to maintain the fund on a modified accrual basis and to report the fund as a special revenue fund under governmental fund types, which is acceptable under generally accepted accounting principles for governmental entities. 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. ACCOUNT GROUP GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT ACCOUNT GROUP - used to account for general obligation bonds outstanding. - 7- BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXHIBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 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 of these 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. Governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting under which: Revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become both measurable and available). "Measurable" means the amount ofthe transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities ofthe current period. Those revenues considered susceptible to accrual are property taxes, intergovernmental grants and investment income. Property taxes are considered available ifthey are collected and remitted by the collecting agent to the Board within 6Q days after fiscal year-end. Expenditures are generally recognized when the related fund liability is incurred. A departure from the above definitions is the accounting treatment afforded the final two payments on General Fund teachers' and bus drivers' contracts, and the resources available from the Georgia Department of Education for the State's share ofthese contracts. During fiscal year 1995, a substantial number of personnel of the Board were employed for a one hundred and ninety day period beginning in late August 1994 and ending in early June 1995. Personnel contracts for this employment period specify that compensation be paid in twelve equal monthly payments beginning in September 1994 and ending in August 1995. State grants to fund the State's share of these contracts were disbursed from the Georgia Department ofEducation to the Board in the same twelve months. As ofJune 30, 1995, compensation under these employment contracts had been earned, but two of the twelve monthly payments, due for July and August 1995, had not been made. Payments for these two months were made and recorded as expenditures by the Board subsequent to June 30, 1995. Also, the State's portion ofthe compensation paid in July and August 1995 was received and recorded as revenue in the fiscal year subsequent to June 30, 1995. Conversely, the similar expenditures and related revenues for contractual services completed prior to June 30, 1994, were recorded in the year ended June 30, 1995. Generally accepted accounting principles require that revenues be recorded when available and measurable and that expenditures be recorded when incurred, rather than when funds are received or disbursed. - 8- BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXHIBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BUDGET The Bryan County Board ofEducation's budget is a complete financial plan for the Board's fiscal year and is based upon estimates of expenditures together with probable funding sources. There is no statutory prohibition regarding overexpenditure of the 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 Board's administration prepares a tentative budget for the Board's approval. After approval of this 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 of the Board after advertisement, the Board receives comments on the tentative budget, makes revisions as necessary and adopts a final school budget. This final budget is then submitted, in accordance with provisions ofthe Quality Basic Education Act, OCGA Section 20-2-167, to the Georgia Department ofEducation. The Board may increase or decrease the budget at any time during the year. All unexpended budget authority lapses at fiscal year-end. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS COMPOSITION OF DEPOSITS Cash and cash equivalents consist ofdeposits (including N.0.W. accounts) in authorized financial institutions. Georgia Laws authorize the Board to deposit its funds in one or more solvent banks, insured Federal savings and loan associations, or insured State chartered building and loan associations. The placement of proceeds from bond issues in certificates of deposit is limited to financial institutions located within this State. RECEIVABLES Receivables consist ofgrant reimbursements due from Federal, State or other grantors for expenditures made but not reimbursed and other receivables disclosed from infonnation available. Receivables are recorded when either the asset or revenue recognition criteria has been met. Receivables recorded on the general purpose financial statements do not include any amounts which would necessitate the need for an allowance for uncollectible receivables. PROPERTY TAXES The Bryan County Board of Commissioners fixed the property tax levy for the 1994 tax year (calendar year) on November 30, 1994 (levy date). Taxes were due on January 31, 1995. The lien date for property taxes was January 1, 1994. Taxes collected within the current fiscal year or within 60 days after year-end are reported as revenue in fiscal year 1995 since their collection meets the criteria of GASB codification section P70.103. The Bryan County Tax Commissioner bills and collects the property _taxes for the Board of Education, withholds 2.5% of taxes collected as a fee for tax collection, and remits the balance of taxes collected to the Board. - 9- BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXIIlBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Tax millage rates levied for the 1994 tax year (calendar year) for the Bryan County Board ofEducation were as follows (a mill equals $1 per thousand dollars of assessed value): School Operations School Bonds 15.54 mills .27 mills li.8.1 mills INVENTORIES FOOD INVENTORIES Inventories of donated food commodities used in the preparation of meals are reported on the Combined Balance Sheet at their Federally assigned value. Purchased foods inventories are reported on the Combined Balance Sheet at cost. Donated food commodities are recorded as revenues and expenditures at the time commodity items are received. Purchased foods inventories are recorded as expenditures at the time of purchase. The inventories reported on the balance sheet for donated food commodities and for purchased foods are equally offset by reservations offund balance which indicates that these amounts do not constitute "available spendable resources" even though they are a component of net current assets. GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS The Board issues general obligation bonds to provide funds for the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities. General obligation bonds are direct obligations and pledge the full faith and credit of the government. The outstanding amount of these bonds is recorded in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group. INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS The Board has the following types ofinterfund transactions: Reimbunements ofexpenditures initially made from a fund that are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as expenditures in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of expenditures in the fund that is reimbursed. Operating transfen are recorded for all interfund transactions other than reimbursements. - 10 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXIIlBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES MEMORANDUM ONLY - TOTAL COLUMNS Total columns on the general purpose financial statements are captioned "Memorandum Only" to indicate that they are presented only to facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not present financial position or results of operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Neither are such data comparable to a consolidation. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation ofthis data. Note 2: DEPOSITS COLLATERALIZATION OF DEPOSITS Official Code ofGeorgia Annotated (OCGA) Section 45-8-12 provides that there shall not be on deposit at any time in any depository for a time longer than ten days a sum of money which has not been secured by surety bond, by guarantee ofinsurance, or by collateral. The aggregate ofthe face value of such surety bond and the market value ofsecurities shall be equal to not less than 110 percent ofthe public funds being secured aft~ the deduction of the amount of deposit insurance. OCGA Section 45-8-11 provides an officer holding public funds may, in his discretion, waive the requirement for security in the case ofoperating funds placed in demand deposit checking accounts. Acceptable security for deposits consists ofany one of or any combination ofthe following: (1) Surety bond signed by a surety company duly qualified and authorized to transact business within the State of Georgia, (2) Insurance on accounts provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, (3) Bonds, bills, notes, certificates ofindebtedness or other direct obligations of the United States or of the State of Georgia, (4) Bonds, bills, notes, certificates ofindebtedness or other obligations ofthe counties or municipalities ofthe State of Georgia, (5) Bonds ofany public authority created by the laws of the State of Georgia, providing that the statute that created the authority authorized the use ofthe bonds for this purpose, (6) Industrial revenue bonds and bonds of development authorities created by the laws of the State of Georgia, and - 11 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXHIBIT "D11 NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 2: DEPOSITS (7) Bonds, bills, notes, certificates of indebtedness, or other obligations of a subsidiary corporation of the United States government, which are fully guaranteed by the United States government both as to principal and interest and debt obligations issued by the Federal Land Bank, the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank, the Central Bank for Cooperatives, the Farm Credit Banks, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Association, and the Federal National Mortgage Association. CATEGORIZATION OF DEPOSITS At June 30, 1995, the bank balances were $2,502,501.18. The amounts of the total bank balances are classified into three categories of credit risk: Category 1 - Cash that is insured (e.g., Federal depository insurance) or collateralized with securities held by the Board or by the Board's agent in the Board's name. Category 2 - Cash collateralized with securities held by the pledging financial institution's trust department or agent in the Board's name. Category 3 - Uncollateralized deposits. (This includes any bank balance that is collateralized with securities held by the pledging financial institution, or by its trust department or agent but not in the Board's name.) The Board's deposits are classified by risk category at June 30, 1995, as follows: Risk Category 1 2 3 Total Note 3: NON-MONETARY TRANSACTIONS Bank Balance $ 162,944.72 0.00 2,339,556.46 $2,502,501.18 The Board receives food commodities from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for school breakfast and lunch programs. These commodities are recorded at their Federally assigned value. See Note 1 - Inventories Note 4: RISK MANAGEMENT The Board is exposed to various risks ofloss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors or omissions; job related illnesses or injuries to employees; natural disaster; and unemployment compensation. The Board has obtained commercial insurance for risk of loss associated with torts, assets and job related illnesses or injuries to employees. The Board has neither significantly reduced coverage for these risks nor incurred losses (settlements) which exceeded the Board's insurance coverage in any ofthe past three years. - 12 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXIIlBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 4: RISK MANAGEMENT The Board has obtained commercial insurance for errors and omissions, however the policy excludes coverage for sexual harassment and discrimination claims. The Board has not experienced any losses related to errors or omissions in the past three years. The Board has elected to self-insure for all losses related to natural disaster. The Board has not experienced any losses related to natural disaster in the past three years. The Board is self-insured with regard to unemployment compensation claims. The Board accounts for claims within the General Fund with expenditures and liability being reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred, and the amount ofthat loss can be reasonably estimated. Changes in the unemployment compensation claims liability during the last two fiscal years are as follows: Beginning ofYear Liabilicy Claims and Changes in Estimates Claims Paid End of Year Liabilicy 1994 1995 $ 0.00 $ 3,457.00 $ 3,457.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 5,034.00 $ 5,034.00 $ 0.00 Note 5: GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT The changes in General Long-Term Debt during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, were as follows: Balance July 1, 1994 Deductions Balance June 30, 1995 General Obligation Bonds $ 380,000.00 70,000.00 $ 310 000 00 At June 30, 1995, payments due, by fiscal year which includes principal and interest for these items are as follows: - 13 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXHIBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 5: GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT Fiscal Year Ended June 30 1996 1997 1998 1999 Total Principal and Interest Note 6: SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENTS General Obligation Bonds $ 89,375.00 90,000.00 90,312.50 90J12.50 $ 360000,00 The following is an analysis of significant outstanding construction or renovation contracts executed by the Board as ofJune 30, 1995. Project Unearned Executed Contracts 93/94-615-008 $ 75,619.72 The amount described in this note is not reflected in the general purpose financial statements. Note 7: CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Amounts received or receivable principally from the Federal government are subject to audit and review by grantor agencies. This could result in requests for reimbursement to the grantor agency for any expenditures which are disallowed under grant terms. The Board believes that such disallowances, if any, will be immaterial to its overall financial position. The Board is a defendant in various legal proceedings pertaining to matters incidental to the performance of routine Board operations. The ultimate disposition ofthese proceedings is not presently determinable, but are not believed to be material to the general purpose financial statements. Note 8: RETIREMENT PLANS TEACHERS RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA (TRS) TRS PLAN DESCRIPTION Substantially all teachers, administrative and clerical personnel employed by local school systems are covered by the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia {TRS), which is a cost-sharing multiple employer public employee retirement system (PERS). - 14 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXHIBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 8: RETIREMENT PLANS TRS provides service retirement, disability retirement and survivors benefits for its members in accordance with State statute. A member is eligible for service retirement after 30 years of creditable service, regardless ofage, or after 10 years of service and attainment of age 60. A member is eligible for early retirement after 25 years of creditable service and attainment of age 55, at a reduced benefit. Retirement benefits paid to members are equal to 2% of the average of the member's two consecutive highest paid years of service multiplied by the number of years of creditable service up to 40 years. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life. Options are available for distribution ofthe member's monthly pension at a reduced rate to a designated beneficiary on the member's death. Retirement benefits also include death and disability benefits. A disabled member or surviving spouse is entitled to receive annually an amount equal to the member's service retirement benefit or disability retirement, whichever is greater. The death benefit is the amount that would be payable to the member's beneficiary had the member retired on the date of death on either a service retirement allowance or a disability retirement allowance, whichever is larger. The benefit is based on the member's creditable service (minimum of 10 years of service) and compensation up to the time of disability or death. Members become fully vested after ten years of service. If a member terminates with less than ten years of service, no vesting ofemployer contributions occurs, but the member's contributions are refunded with interest. The Board's payroll for employees covered by TRS for the year ended June 30, 1995, was $10,520,993.59; total payroll was $12,489,182.49. TRS CONTRIBUTIONS REQUIRED AND MADE Employees ofthe Board who are covered by TRS are required by State statute to contribute 5% oftheir gross earnings to TRS. The Board makes monthly employer contributions to TRS at rates adopted by the TRS Board ofTrustees in accordance with State statute and as advised by their independent actuary. For fiscal year 1995 that rate for employer contributions was 11.81%. The interest rate assumption (rate of return on investments) was 7.50%. Total contributions made during fiscal year 1995 amounted to $1,768,582.93, ofwhich $1,242,527.65 was made by the Board and $526,055.28 was made by employees. These contributions represented 11.81% (Board) and 5% (employees) of covered payroll. TRS FUNDING STATUS AND PROGRESS The amount of the total pension benefit obligation is based on a standardized measurement established by Statement No. 5 ofthe Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) that, with some exceptions, must be used by a PERS. The standardized measurement is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits. This valuation method reflects the present value of estimated pension benefits that will be paid in future years as a result of employee services performed to date, and is adjusted for the effects of projected - 15 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXEilBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 8: RETIREMENT PLANS salary increases. A standardized measure ofthe pension benefit obligation was adopted by the GASB to enable readers of PERS financial statements to assess that PERS funding status on a going-concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and make comparisons among other PERS and among other employers. Total unfunded pension benefit obligation ofTRS as ofJune 30, 1994, was as follows: Total pension benefit obligation $15,313,743,000.00 Net assets available for benefits, at cost 14,254,785,000.00 Unfunded pension benefit obligation $ 1,058,958 000.00 The measurement ofthe total pension benefit obligation is based on an actuarial valuation as ofJune 30, 1994. Net assets available to pay pension benefits were valued as of the same date. TRS does not make separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligation for individual employers. Total contributions from all employers to TRS for fiscal year ended June 30, 1995 were $565,117,811.00. The Board's contribution for the year ended June 30, 1995 of$1,242,527.65 was actuarially determined and represented .2199% of total contributions made by all participating employers. Ten year historical trend information is presented in the 1995 TRS Component Unit Financial Report. This information is useful in assessing TRS's accumulation of sufficient assets to pay pension benefits as they become due. PUBLIC SCHOOL EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA (PSERS) PSERS PLAN DESCRIPTION Substantially all bus drivers, maintenance, custodial, and lunchroom personnel employed by local school systems are covered by the Public School Employees Retirement System of Georgia (PSERS). All employer's contributions are made by the State of Georgia in accordance with State statute. PSERS provides in accordance with State statute service retirement, disability retirement and survivors benefits for its members. A member is eligible for normal service retirement after 10 years of service and attainment ofage 65. A member applying for service retirement with 10 years of service and retires between the ages of 60 and 65 receives a reduced benefit. Monthly retirement benefits paid to members are equal to $8.00 per month multiplied by the number ofyears of creditable service. Options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension at a reduced rate to a designated beneficiary on the member's death. - 16 - BRYAN COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION EXIIlBIT "D" NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1995 Note 8: RETIREMENT PLANS Retirement provisions include death and disability benefits. Disability benefits are the same as ifthe employee had retired at age 65 as long as the employee has 15 or more years ofcreditable service. Death benefits are dependent upon the number ofyears of service. Ifthere are less than ten years of service, a lump sum refund ofthe employee's contributions and interest are made to the beneficiary. Ifthere are more than ten years of service, the beneficiary shall receive for life half ofwhat the employee would have received upon retirement. Members become fully vested after ten years of service. If a member terminates with less than ten years of service, no vesting ofemployer contributions occurs, but the member's contnbutions are refunded with interest. There were 139 employees covered under PSERS for the year ended June 30, 1995. PSERS CONTRIBUTIONS REQUIRED AND MADE Covered employees are required by State statute to contribute $4.00 a month for the nine month.school year. Unlike TRS, the Board makes no contnbution to PSERS. The State of Georgia is required by statute to make employer contributions actuarially determined and approved and certified by the PSERS' Board of Trustees. Total contributions from employees ofthe Board made during fiscal year 1995 amounted to $4,612.00. Total contribution for all school systems made by the State of Georgia to PSERS for fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, was $9,162,000.00. Note 9: SURETY BONDS . The School Superintendent, Mr. Perry K.

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 generally accepted auditing standards and 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 general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. We did not observe the taking of either the Federal donated commodities inventory or the purchased foods inventory at June 30, 1995, nor could we satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy of the amounts stated as inventories through alternative procedures. Compliance with laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to Bryan County Board ofEducation is the responsibility of the Board's management. As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of the Board's compliance with certain provisions oflaws, regulations, contracts, and grants. However, the objective of our audit of the financial statements was not to provide an opinion on overall compliance with such provisions. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results ofour tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported herein under Government Auditing Standards. 95CRL-10 This report is intended for the information of management, the Federal cognizant audit agency and other Federal grantor agencies.

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. We have applied procedures to test the Bryan County Board of Education's compliance with the following requirements applicable to each ofits Federal financial assistance programs, which are listed in the Schedule ofFederal Financial Assistance, for the year ended June 30, 1995: (1) Political Activity (5) Allowable Costs/Cost Principles (2) Civil Rights (6) Drug-Free Workplace Act (3) Cash Management (7) Audit Follow-Up/Resolution (4) Federal Financial Reports (8) Administrative Requirements Our procedures were limited to the applicable procedures described in the Office ofManagement and Budget's "Compliance Supplement for Single Audits of State and Local Governments" and other additional procedures as deemed necessary. Our procedures were substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on the Board's compliance with the requirements listed in the preceding paragraph. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. 95CRL-50 With respect to the items tested, the results of those procedures disclosed no material instances of noncompliance with the requirements listed in the second paragraph ofthis report. With respect to items not tested, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that the Bryan County Board ofEducation had not compHed, in all material respects, with those requirements. However, the results of our procedures disclosed immaterial instances ofnoncompliance with those requirements, which are described in the Schedule ofFindings and Improper or Questioned Costs.

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. We have also audited the Bryan County Board ofEducation's compliance with the requirements governing: (1) Types of Services Allowed or Unallowed (5) Applicable Special Tests and Provisions (2) Eligibility (3) Matching, Level ofEffort, and/or Earmarking (6) Other Requirement Claims for Advances and Reimbursements (4) Reporting These requirements are applicable to the major Federal financial assistance programs, which are identified in the Schedule ofFederal Financial Assistance, for the year ended June 30, 1995. The management of the Bryan County Board of Education is responsible for the Board's compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance with those requirements based on our audit. 95CRL-80 Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit ofcompliance in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards; Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and Office ofManagement and Budget (0MB) Circular A-128, "Audits of State and Local Governments". Those standards and 0MB Circular A-128 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the requirements referred to above occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Bryan County Board ofEducation's compliance with those requirements. 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 the purchased foods inventory at June 30, 1995, nor could we satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy of the amounts stated as inventories through alternative procedures. However, this matter has no affect on the Board's compliance with the requirements listed in the second paragraph of this report. In our opinion, the Bryan County Board ofEducation complied,in all material respects, with the requirements as disclosed in the second paragraph that are applicable to its major Federal financial assistance programs for the year ended June 30, 1995. This report is intended for the information of management, the Federal cognizant audit agency and other Federal grantor agencies.

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. In connection with our audit ofthe fiscal year 1995 general purpose financial statements of the Bryan County Board of Education and with our consideration of the Board's control structure used to administer Federal financial assistance programs, as required by Office of Management and Budget (0MB) Circular A-128, "Audits of State and Local Governments", we selected certain transactions applicable to certain nonmajor Federal :financial assistance programs for the year ended June 30, 1995. As required by 0MB Circular A-128, we have performed auditing procedures on the selected transactions to test compliance with the requirements governing: (1) Types of Services Allowed or Unallowed (2) Eligibility Our procedures were substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on the Bryan County Board ofEducation's compliance with these requirements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. With respect to the items tested, the results of those procedures disclosed no material instances of noncompliance with the requirements listed in the second paragraph. With respect to items not tested, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that the Bryan County Board ofEducation had not complied, in all material respects, with those requirements. 95CRL-120 This report is intended for the information of management, the Federal cognizant audit agency and other Federal grantor agencies.

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 generally accepted auditing standards, and 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 general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. We did not observe the taking of either the Federal donated commodities inventory or purchased foods inventory at June 30, 1995, nor could we satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy of the amounts stated as inventories through alternative procedures. The management ofthe Bryan County Board ofEducation is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of internal control structure policies and procedures. The objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation ofgeneral purpose financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because ofinherent limitations in any internal control structure, errors or irregularities may nevertheless occur and not 95ICL-3 be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to risk that procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness ofthe design and operation of policies and procedures may deteriorate. In planning and performing our audit of the general purpose financial statements of the Bryan County Board ofEducation for the year ended June 30, 1995, we obtained an understanding of the internal control structure. With respect to the internal control structure, we obtained an understanding of the design of relevant policies and procedures and whether. they have been placed in operation, and we assessed control risk in order to detennine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the general purpose financial statements and not to provide an opinion on the internal control structure. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. We noted certain matters involving the internal control structure and its operation that we consider to be reportable conditions under standards established by the American Institute ofCertified Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal control structure that, in our judgment, could adversely affect the entity's ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the general purpose financial statements. As described in the Schedule ofFindings and Improper or Questioned Costs, reportable conditions were noted in the following control categories: (1) Accounting Controls (Overall) (2) General Fixed Assets A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control structure elements does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be material in relation to the general purpose financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses as defined above. However, we believe that the reportable conditions disclosed above are also considered to be material weaknesses. These conditions were considered in determining the nature,. timing, and extent of the procedures to be performed in our audit ofthe Bryan County Board ofEducation's financial statements and this report does not affect our report thereon dated August 27, 1996. 95ICL-3 This report is intended for the information of management, the Federal cognizant audit agency and other Federal grantor agencies.

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. We have also audited the Bryan County Board ofEducation's compliance with requirements applicable to major Federal financial assistance programs and have issued our opinion thereon dated August 27, 1996. Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards; Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General ofthe United States; and the provisions ofOffice ofManagement and Budget (0MB) Circular A-128, "Audits of State and Local Governments". Those standards and 0MB Circular A-128 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement and about whether the Bryan County Board ofEducation complied with laws and regulations, noncompliance with which would be material to a major Federal financial assistance program. We did not observe the taking of either the Federal donated commodities inventory or purchased foods inventory at June 30, 1995, nor could we satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy of the amounts stated as inventories through alternative procedures. In planning and performing our audit for the year ended June 30, 1995, we considered the Board's internal control structure in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the Board's general purpose financial statements and on its compliance with requirements applicable to major Federal financial assistance programs and to report on the internal control structure in accordance with O:~ffi Circular A-128. This report addresses our consideration of internal control structure policies and 95ICL-7 procedures relevant to compliance with requirements applicable to Federal financial assistance programs. We have addressed internal control structure policies and procedures relevant to our audit of the general purpose financial statements in a separate report dated August 27, 1996. The management ofthe Bryan County Board ofEducation is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of internal control structure policies and procedures. The objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that, assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of general purpose financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that Federal financial assistance programs are managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure, errors, irregularities, or instances of noncompliance may nevertheless occur and not be detected. Also, projection ofany evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and operation of policies and procedures may deteriorate. For the purpose of this report, we have classified the significant internal control structure policies and procedures used in administering Federal financial assistance programs in the following control categories: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS (1) Political Activity (2) Civil Rights (3) Cash Management (4) Federal Financial Reports (I) Types of Services . Allowed or Unallowed (2) Eligibility (3) Matching, Level ofEffort, and/or Earmarking (5) Allowable Costs/Cost Principles (4) Reporting (6) Drug-Free Workplace Act (7) Audit Follow~Up/Resolution (8) Administrative Requirements (5) Applicable Special Tests and Provisions (6) Other Requirement Claims for Advances and Reimbursements For all of the internal control structure categories listed above, we obtained an understanding ofthe design of relevant policies and procedures and determined whether they have been placed in operation, and we assessed control risk. During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Bryan County Board ofEducation expended 58% ofits total Federal financial assistance under major Federal financial assistance programs. 95ICL-7 We performed tests of controls, as required by 0MB Circular A-128, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of internal control structure policies and procedures that we considered relevant to preventing or detecting material noncompliance with general requirements and specific requirements as described above that are applicable to each ofthe Board's major Federal :financial assistance programs, which are identified in the Schedule ofFederal Financial Assistance. Our procedures were less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on these internal control structure policies and procedures. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. We noted certain matters involving the internal control structure and its operation that we consider to be reportable conditions under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operation ofthe internal control structure that, in our judgment, could adversely affect the Board's ability to administer Federal financial assistance programs in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. As described in the Schedule ofFindings and Improper or Questioned Costs, reportable conditions were noted in the following control categories: ( 1) Administrative Requirements (2) Federal Financial Reports A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control structure elements does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that noncompliance with laws and regulations that would be material to a Federal financial assistance program may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Our consideration of the internal control structure policies and procedures used in administering Federal financial assistance would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses as defined above. However, we believe that the reportable conditions described above are also considered to be material weaknesses. These conditions were considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of the procedures to be performed in our audit of the Bryan County Board ofEducation's compliance with requirements applicable to its major Federal financial assistance programs for the year ended June 30, 1995, and this report does not affect our report thereon dated August 27, 1996. 95ICL-7 This report is intended for the information of management, the Federal cognizant audit agency and other Federal grantor agencies and should not be used for any other purpose.

IO due to an error in the employees' salary calculation. For the year under review, reimbursement was not received by the Board. Reference to this finding will be deleted from the audit reports in subsequent years. However, the Board is not relieved oftheir responsibility to secure reimbursement for this overpayment. AUDIT FOLLOW-UP/RESOLUTION Failure to Meet Expenditure Requirements Financial Statements Amount: $223 .25 Audit Control Number 6151-93-04 The audit report for the year ended June 30, 1993, disclosed that the Staff Development - Professional Development Program had an underexpenditure of Quality Basic Education (QBE) funds of $223 .25 for the required minimum allotment. For the year under review, no adjustment was made to the Board's local fair share by the Georgia Department of Education to refund this underexpenditure as required. The underexpenditure of$223.25 should be returned to the Georgia Department ofEducation through an increase in the Board's local fair share for the QBE programs in a subsequent fiscal year. AUDIT FOLLOW-UP/RESOLUTION Failure to Meet Expenditure Requirements Financial Statements Amount: $109.76 Audit Control Number 6151-94-01 The audit report for the year ended June 30, 1994, disclosed that the Board had an underexpenditure of Quality Basic Education (QBE) funds of $109.76 for the operations portion of the Remedial Education Program. For the year under review, no adjustment was made to the Board's local fair share by the Georgia Department of Education to refund this underexpenditure as required. The underexpenditure of $109.76 should be returned to the Georgia Department ofEducation through an increase in the Board's local fair share for the QBE programs in a subsequent fiscal period. - 1- BRYANCOUNTYBOARDOFEDUCATION SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 PRIOR YEAR/CURRENT YEAR GENERAL FIXED ASSETS Failure to Maintain General Fixed Assets Account Group Financial Statements Reportable Condition - Material Weakness Audit Control Number 6151-93-02 The audit report for the year ended June 30, 1994, noted that the management of the Bryan County Board of Education had chosen not to maintain a system-wide General Fixed Assets Account Group within the formal accounting records as required by generally accepted accounting principles. In the year under review, the Board did not establish a General Fixed Assets Account Group within the formal accounting records. This condition results in the general purpose financial statements of the Board being incomplete and not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriate action should be taken by the Board to establish accounting controls and procedures to provide for maintenance ofa General Fixed Assets Account Group. These subsidiary records should include an inventory ofland, buildings and equipment owned by the Board and should include, but may not be limited to, date acquired, acquisition cost, estimated replacement cost, location and description. Detailed records should be maintained of all additions and deletions to the General Fixed Assets Account Group. ACCOUNTING CONTROLS (OVERALL) - Financial Statements ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS - Federal Financial Assistance Inadequate Separation ofDuties Reportable Condition - Material Weakness Audit Control Number 6151-93-03 The audit report for the year ended June 30, 1994, stated that the Board did not provide for adequate separation of employee duties in the performance of accounting functions and related procedures for the School Food Services Fund (CFDA 10.550, 10.553 and 10.555). For the year under review, the Board made some improvements regarding adequate separation ofemployee duties, but still did not achieve an adequate degree of internal control. This deficiency was a result of management's decision to limit the number of administrative staff made responsible for accounting functions. Management should periodically review this decision to detennine ifemployee duties can be reassigned to achieve a higher degree ofinternal control with the existing staff. -2- . BRYANCOUNTYBOARDOFEDUCATION SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 CURRENT YEAR FEDERAL FINANCIAL REPORTS Delinquent Completion Reports Federal Financial Assistance Nonmaterial Noncompliance Audit Control Number 6151-95-01 A review ofproject completion reports filed by the Board with the Georgia Department ofEducation for the year under review showed that completion reports were not filed by the required dates as listed below: Project Due Date Date Submitted Elementary and Secondary Education Act Chapter 1 Education ofDeprived Children (CFDA 84.010) 1995 Summer September 30, 1995 January 18, 1996 Elementary and Secondary Education Act Title II Eisenhower Mathematics and Science Education (CFDA 84.164) 1995 Regular December 31, 1995 January 11, 1996 Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Title VI, B Flow Through (CFDA 84.027) 1994 Cany-Over and 1995 Regular Preschool Program (CFDA 84.173) 1994 Cany-Over and 1995 Regular September 30, 1995 September 30, 1995 January 11, 1996 January 18, 1996 This condition occurred because management failed to ensure timely submission of reports. The Board should establish procedures to ensure that reports are submitted to the Georgia Department ofEducation as required. -3- BRYANCOUNTYBOARDOFEDUCATION SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 CURRENT YEAR FEDERAL FINANCIAL REPORTS Inadequate Accounting Records Federal Financial Assistance Reportable Condition - Material Weakness Nonmaterial Noncompliance Audit Control Number 6151-95-02 Accounting records ofthe Elementary and Secondary Education Act - Title Il - Eisenhower Mathematics and Science Education Program (CFDA 84.164) were not adequately segregated to ensure identification of revenues and expenditures by project. Accounting records should be adequately segregated to ensure identification of revenues and expenditures by specific project as required. This condition occurred because of management's failure to maintain the programs on an individual project basis. For reporting purposes, extensive audit work was necessary to separate revenues and expenditures for this program as reflected on the Schedule ofFederal Financial Assistance, Schedule "l" ofthis report. Procedures should be implemented to ensure that the accounting records adequately segregate revenues and expenditures by specific project as required by the Georgia Department ofEducation. AUDIT FOLLOW-UP/RESOLUTION Audit Distribution Requirements Federal Financial Assistance Nonmaterial Noncompliance Audit Control Number 6151-95-03 The Board failed to submit a copy ofthe 1994 audit report to the Bryan County Board of Commissioners from whom the Board received Food and Nutrition Program - Summer School Food Program for Children (CFDA 10.559) funds. In addition, the Board was required to send two copies to the U. S. Department ofEducation from whom the Board received P. L. 81-874 Program (CFDA 84.041) funds, however, only one copy was submitted. Paragraph 13f ofOMB Circular A-128 requires that recipients of Federal financial assistance submit copies of single audit reports to those agencies providing Federal financial assistance. Even though formally notified in writing of the audit report distribution responsibilities by the Department of Audits, management failed to properly perform the distribution requirement. Procedures should be implemented to ensure that reports are submitted to grantor agencies in accordance with audit distribution requirements. Note: The Bryan County Board ofEducation was provided an opportunity to include pertinent comments from the Board's management concerning these audit findings, conclusions and recommendations. The Board has elected not to provide comments for inclusion in this report. -4-
