Honorable Nathan Deal, Governor Members of the General Assembly Members of the State Board of Education
and Superintendent and Members of the Atlanta Independent School System
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Atlanta Independent School System (School System), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Board's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
2013ARL-11

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to previously present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Atlanta Independent School System, as of June 30, 2013, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As described in Notes A and S to the financial statements, in 2013, the Atlanta Independent School System adopted new accounting guidance, Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position, and GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported As Assets and Liabilities, which resulted in a restatement to beginning net position of $1,381,985. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis and the required supplementary information, as presented on pages 4 through 15 and pages 53 through 55 respectively, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management regarding the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Atlanta Independent School System's basic financial statements. The Introductory Section, the Supplementary Information and Statistical Section are presented for the purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The Supplementary Information on pages 56 through 72 is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
2013ARL-11

The Introductory Section on pages i through xii and the Statistical Section on pages 73 through 97 have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.
A copy of this report has been filed as a permanent record in the office of the State Auditor and made available to the press of the State, as provided for by Official Code of Georgia Annotated section 50-6-24.
Respectfully,

GSG:as 2013ARL-11

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

ATLANTA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL SYSTEM Management's Discussion and Analysis For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013
The discussion and analysis of the Atlanta Independent School System's financial performance provides an overview of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The intent of this discussion and analysis is to examine the School System's financial performance as a whole, identify changes in financial position as well as to provide basic financial statements. The Basic Financial Statements should be reviewed by the readers to enhance their understanding of the School System's financial performance as a whole or as an entire operating entity. The Basic Financial Statements contain the following components:
1) Government-wide financial statements including the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, which provide a broad, long-term overview of the School System's finances.
2) Fund-level financial statements provide a greater level of detail about the School System's major funds and focus on how well the School System has performed in the short-term in the most significant funds.
3) Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.
This report also presents the highlights for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 and contains other supplementary information.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Overall, net position in fiscal year 2013 increased by 2.2% over fiscal year 2012. The 2012 net position was restated due to a change in accounting principle. See Note S for more information on this change. This is evidence of management's ability to maintain a balanced budget and control expenses despite austerity reductions due to economic downturns affecting the District's revenues. The key financial highlights for fiscal year 2013 as represented are the following:
Total net position for the School System increased from approximately $1,388.29 million in fiscal year 2012 to approximately $1,419.33 million in fiscal year 2013, an increase of approximately $31.04 million or 2.2% due to revenues exceeding expenses primarily due to budget cuts. Net position increased by approximately $30.31 million for Governmental Activities and increased by $0.73 million for Business-type Activities.
Total revenues decreased from approximately $775.09 million in fiscal year 2012 to approximately $768.51 million in fiscal year 2013, a decrease of approximately $6.58 million or 0.9%. Revenue for Governmental Activities decreased approximately $5.58 million while revenue for Business-type activities decreased by approximately $1 million.
Total expenses decreased approximately $15.43 million or 2.1% from approximately $752.90 million in fiscal year 2012 to approximately $737.47 million in fiscal year 2013. Expenses decreased in Governmental Activities by approximately $16.41 million and increased by approximately $0.98 million in Business-type Activities.
4

The School System has prepared its annual financial reports according to the Governmental Accounting Standards Board No. 34 financial reporting model, illustrated by the following graphic.
OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Government-wide Financial Statements The Governmentwide financial statements are designed to provide the reader with a broad overview of the School System's finances in a manner similar to those used by private-sector businesses. The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities provide information about the activities of the whole School System, presenting an aggregate and long-term perspective of the finances. These statements include all assets and liabilities using the accrual basis of accounting. This basis of accounting includes all of the current fiscal year's revenues and expenses regardless of when cash is received or paid.
o The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the Schools System's assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position is improving or deteriorating.
o The Statement of Activities presents information showing how net position changed during the fiscal year. All changes in the net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise
5

to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in the statement for some items that will result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (for example, uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).

Included in the Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities for the School System are two distinct kinds of activities:

Governmental Activities Most of the School System's programs and services are reported here including instruction, pupil services, improvement of instruction, educational media, general administrative, school administrative, business administration, maintenance and operation of facilities, student transportation, and central support.

Business-type Activities This service is provided on a charge for goods or services basis to recover all of the expenses of the goods or services provided. The Food Services proprietary fund is reported as a business-type activity.

Total assets increased by roughly $35.90 million or 2.2%.

Current and other assets decreased by roughly $22.70 million or 6.3%.

Capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation for all governmental activities increased by roughly $58.62 million. The increase primarily represents additions to construction in progress, buildings, building improvements, and equipment less the current fiscal year's disposals and depreciation expense.

Long-term debt outstanding decreased by roughly $11.85 million or 7.8%. The decrease was primarily due to scheduled principal payments and the current fiscal year's amortization of the premium related to the Certificates of Participation issued in fiscal year 2011.

Primary Government Sources of Revenues
Total revenues net of special item, decreased $6.58 million or 0.9% from fiscal year 2012 to fiscal year 2013. This change is mainly due to the one-time impairment losses on Sylvan Middle School and E. Rivers Elementary School. Please see Note G for additional information.

Construction in Progress and Buildings SPLOST IV construction programs to renovate or construct academic facilities are in the 12th month of a 60 month program. For more detailed information on the School System's capital assets, see Note G in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements. Long-term Debt and Obligations Long-term Debt and Obligations related to governmental activities for the District was $140.9 million. The following table provides a summary of long term debt activity:
11

Outstanding long-term debt decreased in the current fiscal year due to scheduled principal payments, the current fiscal year's amortization of the premium related to the Certificates of Participation issued in fiscal year 2011, and an overall decrease in Contingent Liabilities. For more detailed information on the School System's long-term debt, see Notes H and I in the Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.

Fund Financial Statements

Fund financial statements provide detailed information regarding the resources segregated for specific activities or objectives, not Government-wide. Funds are used to track specific sources of revenue and expenditures for particular programs.

The School System has three types of funds:

Governmental funds These funds are used to account for most of the School System's basic services and focus on providing cash flow available for spending. These funds include the General Fund, Capital Projects Fund, and other governmental funds of lesser magnitude. Fund accounting statements use the modified accrual method of accounting, which measures cash and other financial assets that can be readily converted to cash. These statements present a short-term view of the School System's operations and services and do not include the long-term focus presented in the Government-wide financial statements. For an explanation of the differences, see the reconciliations included with the Governmental Fund Statements.

Proprietary fund This fund consists of services provided by the School System for a fee and employs the full accrual method of accounting in the same manner as the Government-wide financial statements. The School System has one proprietary fund, Food Services. This fund provides student meals at a cost based on the student's ability to pay, subsidized by Federal funds and the School System.

Fiduciary fund This fund accounts for assets not owned by the School System but for which the School System is responsible for ensuring that the assets in the funds are used for their designated purposes. This fund is not included in the Government-wide financial statements because it cannot be used to finance the School System operations. The School System has one fiduciary fund - Agency Funds (Local School, Club, and Class Funds).

The following presents a summary of the General Fund, Capital Projects Fund, and other non-major governmental funds by type of revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 as compared to June 30, 2012.

Analysis of Major Governmental Funds
The School System has two major governmental funds: the General Fund and Capital Projects Fund. The General Fund is the general operating fund of the School System and is used to account for all financial resources except those funds accounted for in other funds. The Capital Projects Fund is used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities and to account for the bond proceeds restricted to renovation and school construction.

13

General Fund
As of June 30, 2013, total fund balance in the General Fund was approximately $85.22 million. This balance includes approximately $2.40 million nonspendable, $0.39 million restricted, approximately $1.14 million committed, $25.30 million assigned, and $55.99 million unassigned fund balance. As a result of operations in fiscal year 2013, the fund balance increased by $3.20 million. The increase in fund balance is attributable to continued diligence in monitoring costs.

For Budget to Actual comparison purposes, the General Fund reported excess expenditures over final budget for the following functions:

Instruction Salary

$8,864,128

Due to additional teachers required to reduce class size from the original plan

Non-Salary
Pupil Services Non-Salary

$3,579,404 $3,176,514

Due to increase in program support for Residential Facilities, Classroom Instruction, Instructional Support CLL and Commencement Exercises
Due to school-based supply purchases, which are never budgeted in the General Fund, but are the result of consolidation

School Administration Salary

$1,001,215

Due to additional Assistant Principals being deployed in schools

Maintenance and Operations Non-Salary

$789,372

Due to increase in operational cost for utilities and building operations

14

Capital Projects Fund
As of June 30, 2013, total fund balance in the Capital Projects Fund was $131.75 million. This balance includes $2.66 million nonspendable, $113.87 million restricted, and approximately $15.22 million assigned. The fund balance decreased by $1.98 million due primarily to an increase in SPLOST expenditures and a decrease in SPLOST revenues.
Other Governmental Funds
As of June 30, 2013, total fund balance in Nonmajor Governmental Funds was $8.17 million. This balance included approximately $5.81 million restricted and $2.36 million assigned. In fiscal year 2012, the Education Reform Success Fund (ERS) was presented as a major fund with an ending fund balance of $43.66 million. In fiscal year 2013, the ERS fund balance had significantly declined to approximately $0.63 million resulting in classification as a Nonmajor fund. The fund balance for ERS decreased by approximately $43.04 million in the current fiscal year, with overall Nonmajor funds decreasing by approximately $43.88 million.
Current Issues
Currently known facts, decisions, or conditions that are expected to significantly affect the financial position or results of operations are as follows:
Tax revenues as well as State Quality Basic Education funding have suffered reductions. The continued support of our schools by the public, local community organizations, and businesses continues to be an integral part of our ability to educate our students.
Revenue from the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax IV was approved by voters in November of 2011 and the funding, which began in August 2012, has facilitated our ability to replace and improve existing schools and add additional classrooms. Our operating budget will continue to be tight, as we expect decreased funding from the State of Georgia due to current financial conditions. Despite these challenges, we remain committed to using our financial resources efficiently to provide an exceptional educational experience for our students.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The School System's budget is prepared by the Finance Division and is a collaborative effort between the School System and the Atlanta community. The basis for preparation utilizes a zero-based approach because it has systematically provided a more accurate account of anticipated spending levels for the fiscal year.
Details of the General Fund original budget and amended budget are presented in the Financial Section of this report.
Requests for Information
This financial report is designed to provide a general overview of the School System's finances. Questions concerning any of the information provided in this report or requests for additional financial information should be addressed to the School System's Chief Financial Officer at 130 Trinity Avenue SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30303.

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position are different because:
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and therefore are not reported in the funds. Nondepreciable Depreciable, net of accumulated depreciation
Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and therefore are deferred in the funds.
Accumulated pension contributions in excess of annual required contributions are reported as assets for governmental activities

ATLANTA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL SYSTEM Reconciliation of Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in
Fund Balances to the Government-wide Statement of Activities For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

NET CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES - TOTAL GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS

$ (42,658,520)

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Activities are different because:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the Statement of Activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlay exceeded depreciation expense in the current period. Depreciation expense Capital outlay
In the statement of activities, the loss on the disposal of capital assets is included with instruction expenses. However, in the governmental funds, the proceeds from the sale increase financial resources. Thus, the change in net position differs from the change in fund balance by the net book value of the capital assets sold or disposed. Proceeds from the sale of capital assets Net book value of capital assets disposed Impairment loss on capital assets (see Note G)
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are reported as deferred revenues in the funds. Property taxes Special purpose local option sales taxes State revenues Other revenues
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. This amount is the net effect of the differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items. Principal retirement - capital leases Principal retirement - certificates of participation Principal retirement - intergovernmental agreement Amortization of bond premium
The current fiscal year's decrease to the net pension asset increases net expenses on the government-wide statement of activities
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Compensated absences Workers compensation claims payable Contingent legal liabilities Change in accrued interest

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Atlanta Independent School System
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
June 30, 2013
A. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements of the School System have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as applicable to governmental units. The more significant of the School System's accounting policies are summarized below.
1. Reporting Entity
The Atlanta Independent School System (School System or the District) was established by the Georgia State Legislature and is composed of nine publicly elected members serving four-year terms. The School System has the authority to approve its own budget and to provide for the levy of taxes to cover the cost of operations and maintenance and to cover debt service payments. Additionally, the School System has decision-making authority, the power to approve selection of management personnel, the ability to significantly influence operations, and primary accountability for fiscal matters. Accordingly, the School System is a primary government and consists of all the organizations that compose its legal entity.
As required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, these financial statements present the School System and its component units, entities for which the School System is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities have a governing body which is substantively the same as the System's governing body and management of the System has operational responsibility for the component unit and; therefore, data from these units are combined with data of the School System. Substantively the same means sufficient representation of the primary government's entire governing body on the component unit's governing body to allow complete control of the component unit's activities.
Blended Component Unit Education Reform Success, Inc., (ERS) (a non-profit corporation) was established by the School System for the purpose of providing financing for some of the School System's buildings and equipment. The School System has a voting majority on the Board. ERS has issued certificates of participation (COPS) for the acquisition and construction of facilities and equipment. The COPS are repayable solely from payments made by the School System to ERS under a lease agreement for the related facilities and equipment. Accordingly, the COPS and the related capital assets are reported in the government-wide financial statements. Separate financial statements for ERS are not prepared.
2. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities) report information on all of the non-fiduciary activities of the School System and its component units (if any). As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. However, any interfund services provided and used are not eliminated as this process would distort the direct costs and program
26

revenues reported in the various functions. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from Business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.
The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segments are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) fees and charges to applicants who use, or directly benefit from goods, services or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the governmental fund financial statements.
3. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements. The agency fund does not have a measurement focus. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the fiscal year for which they are levied. Grants, private donations, and similar items are recognized as revenue in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the School System considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 30 days of the end of the fiscal period.
The State of Georgia reimburses the School System for teachers' salaries and operating costs through the Quality Basic Education (QBE) Formula Earnings program. State of Georgia law defines the formula driven grant that determines the cost of an academic school year and the State of Georgia's share in this cost. Generally teachers are contracted for the school year (July 1 June 30) and paid over a twelve month contract period, generally September 1 through August 31. In accordance with the requirements of the enabling legislation of the QBE program, the State of Georgia reimburses the School System over the same twelve month period in which teachers are paid, funding the academic school year expenditures. At June 30, the amount of teachers' salaries incurred but not paid until July and August of the subsequent fiscal year are accrued as the State of Georgia has only postponed the final payment of their share of the cost until the subsequent appropriations for cash management purposes. By June 30 of each fiscal year, the State of Georgia has a signed appropriation that includes this final amount, which represents the State of Georgia's intent to fund this final payment. Based on guidance in Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 33, paragraph 74, the State of
27

Georgia recognizes its QBE liability for the July and August salaries at June 30, and the School System recognizes the same QBE as a receivable and revenue, consistent with symmetrical recognition.
Property taxes, sales taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the School System.
Expenditures are generally recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Fund Financial Statements
The School System uses funds to segregate transactions related to certain School System functions or activities in order to maintain its financial records during the fiscal year. Fund financial statements are provided for governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds Governmental funds are those through which most governmental functions are typically financed. Governmental funds employ the financial position measurement focus and are accounted for on the modified accrual basis of accounting at the fund level. Major individual governmental funds are reported in separate columns. All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds.
The School System reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund - The General Fund is the School System's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial transactions of the School System, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Capital Projects Fund - This fund accounts for resources which are used exclusively for acquiring school sites, constructing and equipping new school facilities, and renovating existing facilities. The major revenue sources are from debt proceeds, bond sales, the State of Georgia, and special purpose local option sales tax (SPLOST). SPLOST receipts are tax proceeds required to be used for capital outlay for educational purposes as authorized by local referendum.
Proprietary Funds- Proprietary funds employ the economic resources measurement focus and are accounted for on the accrual basis. Proprietary funds are used to account for activities that are financed and operated like private business enterprises. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's ongoing operations. Operating expenses and depreciation for the enterprise fund include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
28

In accounting and reporting for its proprietary operations, the School System applies all Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, the School System implemented GASB Statement No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA Pronouncements. This statement incorporated into the GASB's authoritative literature certain accounting and financial reporting guidance issued on or before November 30, 1989.
The School System reports the following major proprietary fund:
Food Services Fund - The primary purpose of the Food Services Fund is to account for activities of the School System's school breakfast and lunch programs, which are funded primarily by the United States Department of Agriculture, passed through the Georgia Department of Education.
Fiduciary Funds Fiduciary funds account for assets held by the School System in a trustee capacity or as an agent on behalf of others.
The School System reports the following fiduciary fund:
Agency Fund - This fund is used to account for local school student club and class accounts. It is custodial in nature, and does not involve measurement of the results of operations.
The fiduciary fund is excluded from the government-wide financial statements.
4. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity
a. Cash Equivalents
The School System considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased from authorized financial institutions to be cash equivalents. Georgia Law, OCGA 45-8-14, authorizes the School System to deposit its funds in one or more solvent banks or insured Federal savings and loan associations.
b. Investments Investments made by the School System in nonparticipating interest-earning contracts (such as certificates of deposit), and repurchase agreements are reported at cost. Participating interest-earning contracts and money market investments with a maturity at purchase of one year or less are reported at amortized cost. Both participating interest-earning contracts and money market investments with a maturity at purchase greater than one year and equity investments are reported at fair value. The Official Code of Georgia Annotated Section 3683-4 authorizes the School System to invest its funds. In selecting among options for investment or among institutional bids for deposits, the highest rate of return shall be the objective, given equivalent conditions of safety and liquidity. Funds may be invested in the following:
1) Obligations issued by the State of Georgia or by other states;
29

2) Obligations issued by the United States government;
3) Obligations fully insured or guaranteed by the United States government or a United States government agency;
4) Obligations of any corporation of the United States government;
5) Prime banker's acceptances;
6) The Local Government Investment Pool (i.e., Georgia Fund 1) administered by the State of Georgia, Office of State Treasurer;
7) Repurchase agreements;
8) Obligations of other political subdivisions of the State of Georgia.
c. Receivables Receivables consist of amounts due from property and sales taxes, grant reimbursements due on Federal, State, private donations or other grants for expenditures made but not reimbursed and other receivables disclosed from information available. Receivables are recorded when either the asset or revenue recognition criteria has been met.
d. Inventories and Prepaid Items Inventories are valued at cost using the first-in, first-out method of accounting. Donated food commodities are recorded at fair value. The costs of Food Services Fund inventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed (consumption method). Prepaid items are payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond June 30, 2013 and are recorded as an asset using the consumption method for the prepaid amount and reflecting the expenditure in the fiscal year in which the services are consumed. Prepaid items are recorded in the government-wide and the governmental fund financial statements.
e. Capital Assets Capital assets purchased, including capital outlay costs, are recorded as expenditures in the fund financial statements at the time of purchase (including ancillary charges). On the Government-wide financial statements, all purchased capital assets are valued at cost where historical records are available and at estimated historical cost based on appraisals or deflated current replacement cost where no historical records exist. Donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated fair market value at the date of donation. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend asset lives are not included in the cost of capital assets. The School System does not capitalize book collections or works of art.
30

Capitalization thresholds and estimated useful lives of capital assets reported in the government-wide statements and proprietary funds are as follows:

Capital assets donated to proprietary fund type operations are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of donation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets.

f. Compensated Absences
The Atlanta Board of Education authorizes annual leave for personnel employed on a twelvemonth basis as follows: Less than then years of service 3.750 hours per pay period; ten to twenty years of service 4.875 hours per pay period; and twenty or more years of service 5.625 hours per pay period. Employees on 220 day assignment prior to May 13, 1986 who continue in said assignment are authorized annual leave as follows: less than ten years of service 1.0227 hours per pay period; ten to twenty years of service 2.0454 hours per pay period; and twenty or more years of service 3.0681 hours per pay period. An employee may accrue annual leave days up to a maximum of 225 hours (30 working days). Vacation benefits are accrued as a liability as the benefits are earned if the employees' rights to receive salary related compensation are attributable to services already rendered and it is probable that the School System will compensate the employees for the benefits through paid time off or some other means. Amounts of vested or accumulated vacation leave that are not expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources are reported as long-term obligations in the government-wide financial statements and are not liabilities of the governmental funds.

g. Long-term Obligations
In the governmental-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt, and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities or business-type activities statement of net position. Long-term debt and other long-term liabilities that will be paid from governmental funds are not recognized as a liability in the fund financial statements until due but are reported in the government-wide statements as long-term debt.

31

h. Fund Equity
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report limitations on the purpose for which all or a portion of the resources of the fund balance can be used. The limitations can vary depending upon their source. Financial statements for governmental funds report up to five components of fund balance:
Nonspendable Fund balance amounts that cannot be spent either because they are in a nonspendable form or because they are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted Fund balance amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes because of state or federal laws, or externally imposed conditions by grantors or creditors.
Committed Fund balance amounts that can be used only for specific purposes determined by formal action by the Board of Education. The Board of Education is the School District's highest level of decision-making authority, and the formal action that is required to be taken to establish, modify, or rescind a fund balance commitment is a resolution approved by the Board.
Assigned Fund balances are reported as assigned when amounts are constrained by the School System's intent to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. The Board has expressly delegated the Superintendent or designee (Chief Financial Officer) the authority to assign fund balances for a particular purpose.
Unassigned Residual fund balance that has not been restricted, committed or assigned to specific purposes or other funds. The School System reports positive unassigned fund balance only in the General Fund. Negative unassigned fund balances may be reported in all funds.
When multiple categories of fund balance are available for expenditure, the School System will use restricted amounts first, and then unrestricted amounts as they are needed. For unrestricted amounts of fund balance, the School System will use fund balance in the following order: committed, assigned, and then unassigned.
i. Net Position
The School System implemented GASB Statements No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Inflows of Resources, Deferred Outflows of Resources, and Net Position and No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, as of July 1, 2012. These new standards establish accounting and financial reporting for deferred inflows / outflows of resources, and the concept of net position as the residual of all other elements presented in a statement of net position.
Net position represents the difference between assets and liabilities in reporting which utilizes the economic resources measurement focus. Net investment in capital assets consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowings used for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. Net position is reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on their use either through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors or laws or regulations of other governments. All other net position is reported as unrestricted.
32

The School System applies restricted resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net positions are available.
j. Deferred Inflows of Resources
In addition to liabilities, the governmental funds balance sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of fund balance that applies to future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The School System has only one type of deferred inflow of resources, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the deferred inflow of resources, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenue from property taxes and other sources as these amounts are deferred and will be recognized as an inflow of resources in the period in which the amounts become available.
k. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, revenue, and expenses including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.
Workers Compensation:
The School System recognizes in the government-wide statements the liabilities for estimated losses to be incurred from pending worker compensation claims and for worker compensation claims incurred but not reported (IBNR). IBNR claims are estimates of claims that are incurred through the end of the fiscal year but have not yet been reported. These liabilities are based on actuarial valuations.
B. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
Atlanta Independent School System employs zero-based budgeting for budget preparation. The zerobased budgeting process provides for the identification and prioritization of school system activities and resources starting from zero, and accumulating to the targeted funding level. Each activity is linked to the goal, objectives, and mission of the System and ranked as to its importance. As the proposed budget moves through each level of the organization, program activities and goals are aggregated further and ranked again. The final budget produced, and presented is one, which includes all program activities ranked in order of importance in reaching the System's mission. Our basis of budget presentation is in accordance with GAAP.
The School System follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements:
1. Budget requests are normally completed in January.
33

2. Proposed budgets are consolidated and reviewed by the Budget Department, then submitted to the Senior Cabinet of Atlanta Public Schools and Budget Commission for additional review prior to the approval by the Atlanta Board of Education.
3. Public hearings on the proposed budget are normally held in May and June.
4. The annual budget is legally adopted by the Board in June for the General Fund and Special Revenue Funds.
5. The administrative level of budgetary control upon adoption is at the program level. The Atlanta Board of Education must approve transfers between division and programs that are greater than 5% or $1,000,000 (whichever is less). Transfer of budgeted amounts between object categories within programs requires the approval of the budget center manager.
6. Revenues and expenditures of the Capital Projects Fund are budgeted on an annual basis.
7. Education Reform Success (ERS) Fund does not have a legally adopted budget.
8. The Atlanta Board of Education approves the budget for the Special Revenue Funds as a whole, which is the legal level of budgetary control (the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations). The combined Special Revenue Funds budget to actual schedule does not include the Proprietary Fund, which is included when provided to the board for approval.

D. Deposits and Investments Risks
Deposits (Governmental Funds)
The School System's cash and investment policy limits deposits to demand and money market accounts and time deposits at local banks. The School System's deposit shall be secured by Federal Depositary Insurance Corporation (FDIC) coverage and / or bank pledges. State statutes require banks holding public funds to secure the funds by FDIC insurance, securities pledged at par value, and surety bonds at face value in combined aggregate totaling not less than 110 percent of the public funds held. State statutes define acceptable security for collateralization.
Georgia Fund 1, created by OCGA 36-83-8, is a stable net asset value investment pool which follows Standard and Poor's criteria for AAAf rated money market funds. However, Georgia Fund 1 operates in a manner consistent with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and is considered to be a 2a-7 like pool. The pool is not registered with the SEC as an investment company. 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 determines participant's shares sold and redeemed based on a $1.00 per share value. The fair value of the School System's position in the pool is the same as the value of pool shares ($1 per share value). The regulatory oversight agency for Georgia Fund 1 is the Office of the State Treasurer of the State of Georgia.
Funds included in this Pool are not required to be collateralized. The fair value of the School System's position in the pool approximates the value of the School System's pool shares. Credit risk, value, and interest risk at June 30, 2013 are as follows:

Credit Risk AAAf rated AAAf rated

Value $ 30,256,101*
134,296**

Interest Risk 43 day WAM 43 day WAM

The School System classifies its investment in Georgia Fund 1 as cash and cash equivalents. *Represents funds reported in the School System's General Fund **Represents funds held in the School System's blended component unit, ERS fund, which are held by the U.S. Bank as custodian for the issuances of the Certificates of Participation debt.
Categorization of Deposits
As of June 30, 2013, all of the School System's deposits were covered either by FDIC or collateralized by the financial institution or a combination of both.

Categorization of Investments
The School System's investments as of June 30, 2013 are presented in this table. All investments are presented by investment type and debt securities are presented by maturity.

Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that a fixed income investment's value will decrease due to a change in the absolute level of interest rates. The School System's investment management policy limits investment maturities to 3 years as a means of managing its exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates.

Custodial Credit Risk Custodial credit risks for investments, is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the School System will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. Because of the collateralization requirements, the School System has no custodial credit risk for its investments.

36

Credit Quality Risk Credit quality risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. The School System's policy for managing credit quality risk related to community bank certificates of deposits and repurchase agreements states such investments will only be purchased through banks having at least an AA rating.

The investment policy states Repurchase Agreements may only be purchased from a financial institution that has short-term ratings of AA or higher by Standard & Poor's (S&P) or Aa2 by Moody's. The U.S. Agencies investments are not required to be rated.

Concentration of Credit Risk Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss that may be attributed to the magnitude of a government's investment in a single issuer. The School System has a policy concerning the composition of its investment portfolio and is in compliance with its investment policy.

The investment policy establishes that eligible investments individually are not to exceed the following composition in the portfolios of the General Fund, Capital Projects Fund, and the Education Reform Success Fund:

U.S. Treasury Bills Federal Agencies (No more than 40% per issuer) Repurchase Agreements State of Georgia - Georgia Fund 1 Bank Special Purpose Money Market Funds Municipal Securities (No more than 5%) Certificates of Deposit

100% 65% 30% 25% 25% 25% 10%

Foreign Currency Risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that changes in exchange rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment or deposit. Foreign Investments are prohibited by law in Georgia.

E. Due from Other Governments

Due from other governments consists of grant reimbursements due primarily from the Georgia Department of Education for expenditures incurred, but not yet reimbursed and amounts due from City of Atlanta for bonds issued and unspent tax collections, collected and held by the City of Atlanta on behalf of the School System.

F. Property Taxes and Other Receivables

Property taxes are normally levied and billed by July 1, based on property values assessed as of January 1, on all real and personal property located within the City of Atlanta. Property taxes are due by October 15 at which time they become delinquent and penalties and interest may be assessed, and liens may be attached to property. An allowance has been established for estimated amounts that will not be collected. The School System considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 30 days of the end of the current fiscal year.

Intergovernmental Agreement

Over the years, the City of Atlanta has issued various annual general obligation bonds and general obligation refunding bonds on behalf of the School System. The debt service for the bonds has been funded through the School System's bonded debt portion of the annual tax levy. The maturity date for the bond is December 21, 2027. The bonded debt portion of property taxes collected by the City on behalf of the School System is retained by the City and used to pay the annual debt service on the outstanding bonds. The debt service payments are calculated using assumptions and estimates based on information available. As of June 30, 2013, $395,553 is available and held by the City.

General Obligation Bonds currently outstanding at the City of Atlanta on behalf of the School System are as follows:

Purpose Governmental Activities

Interest Rate 3-5%

Amount $16,311,250

In prior fiscal years, the City of Atlanta and the School System defeased certain bonds by placing funds in an irrevocable trust to provide for all future debt service payments on the old bonds. Accordingly, the trust account assets and the liability for the defeased bonds are not included in the School System's basic financial statements. At June 30, 2013, $48,890,000 of bonds is outstanding, and is considered defeased.

Education Reform Success, Inc. (COPS)

In June 2011, ERS issued COPS on behalf of the School System in the amount of $104,415,000, (Series 2011A, $72,460,000), and (Series 2011B, $31,955,000). The proceeds from the certificates will be used to finance the construction and or renovation of North Atlanta High School. Payments are due on March 1 and September 1 of each year until maturity (maturity dates for series 2011A is March 1, 2027 and March 1, 2017 for Series 2011B).

During the course of its operations, the School System makes transfers between funds to finance operations, provide services, and acquire assets. To the extent that certain transfers among funds had not been received as of fiscal year-end, balances of inter-fund amounts receivable or payable have been recorded. It is management's intent to repay inter-fund balances within the next fiscal year.

L. Risk Management

The School System is exposed to various risks of losses related to torts, theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets, errors and omissions, injuries to employees, and natural disasters. The School System is self-insured for workers' compensation claims and unemployment compensation. The School System purchases commercial insurance in amounts deemed prudent by management for all other risks of loss. Settled claims have not yet exceeded purchased commercial insurance coverage in any of the past three fiscal years.

Unemployment Compensation

The School System is self-insured for unemployment compensation. The State bills the School

System quarterly for the outstanding claims and the School System pays the claims at that time.

Changes in the unemployment compensation claims liability during the last two fiscal years are as

Workers' Compensation

The School System is fully self-insured for workers' compensation claims of its employees. The School System accounts for claims within the General Fund with expenditures and liabilities being reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. An accrued liability for the estimated costs of claims and related settlement costs incurred but not paid and/or reported as of fiscal year-end is reported on the governmental activities financial statements. The calculation of the present value of future workers' compensation liabilities is based on a discount rate of 3.5%. There have not been any significant changes in insurance coverage from the prior fiscal year.

The federally assigned value of these commodities is reflected as revenue and expensed as used in the Food Services Fund financial statements.
N. On-behalf Payments for Fringe Benefits
The School System has recognized revenues and expenditures in the amount of $200,726 for health insurance and pension costs paid by the Georgia Department of Education to the Georgia Department of Community Health for non-certified personnel on the School System's behalf. Additionally, $31,854,792 was paid by the Georgia Department of Education to the Department of Community Health for group health insurance on the School System's behalf.
O. Retirement Plans
Teachers Retirement System of Georgia (TRS)
Plan Description
Substantially all teachers, administrative, and clerical personnel employed by local school systems of the State of Georgia are covered by the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia (TRS), which is a cost sharing multiple employer public employee retirement system sponsored by the State of Georgia. Most School Systems' employees participate in TRS.
TRS provides service retirement, disability retirement, and survivor's benefits for its members. A member is eligible for service retirement after 30 years of creditable service, regardless of age, or after 10 years of service, and attainment of age 60. A member is eligible for early retirement after 25
45

years of creditable service. Early retirement benefits are reduced by the lesser of 1/12 of 7% of each month the member is below age 60, or by 7% of each year or fraction thereof by which the member has less than 30 years of service.

Normal 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 of the 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 whereby the 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 benefit is based on member's creditable service (minimum of 10 years) and compensation up to the date of death.

The TRS Board of Trustees has the authority to establish and amend benefit provisions of the pension plan under Title 47, chapter 3. TRS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the Plan. That report may be obtained by calling 404-352-6500 or by accessing their website at www.trsga.com. Funding Policy

Employees of the School System who are covered by TRS are required to pay 6.00% of their gross earnings to TRS. The School System makes monthly employer contributions to TRS at rates adopted by the TRS Board of Trustees as advised by their independent actuary. The employer contribution rate is 11.41% at June 30, 2013.

Total actual and required contributions were as follows (the School System contributed 100% of the annual required contribution):

City of Atlanta General Employee's Pension Plan
Plan Description
All permanent employees of the School System who are not covered under the TRS are eligible to participate in the City of Atlanta General Employees' Pension Plan (the "Plan"). In addition, certain School System employees employed prior to July 1, 1979, also participates in the Plan.
The Plan provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The Plan is an agent multiple-employer pension plan administered by a Board of Trustees, which includes the Mayor of the City of Atlanta or designee, the City's Chief Financial Officer, one member of City Council, one member of the School System, one member elected by eligible employees of the City, one member elected by eligible employees of
46

the School System, one member elected by retired employees of the School System, and one member elected by retired employees of the City. The Board of Trustees has the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions of the Plan.
On December 12, 2005, the School System adopted the following changes to the Plan: 1. 10 year vesting; 2. 2.5% benefit multiplier (capped at 80%); and 3. Unreduced retirement at 30 years of service regardless of age.
The Plan issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the Plan. The report may be obtained by writing or by calling the Plan at:
GEM Group 225 Peachtree Street Northeast Suite 1460 Atlanta, Georgia 30303 404-525-4191
The Plan provides retirement benefits that, initially, are 2% of the employee's highest average monthly base compensation over any 36-month period. A participant may retire at age 65 or, after 15 years of service, at age 60. Cost-of-living increases are awarded annually, up to a 3% maximum increase. Partial vesting percentages based on years of creditable service and provisions for early retirement are included in the Plan. Benefits also may be payable at termination, death, or disability.

The School System's membership in the Plan as of July 1, 2012 is as follows:

Active employees Inactive members Retirees and beneficiaries
Total membership

763 26 2,253
3,042

Method Used to Value Investments
Investments are stated at fair value. Fair value of Plan assets at July 1, 2012 was $110,283,000.
Funding Policy and Annual Pension Cost
The School System's funding policy is to contribute a percentage of covered employee payroll as developed in the actuarial valuation for the Plan. Obligations to contribute to the Plan are established by the Board, subject to minimum financing standards established by the State of Georgia.

Active participants are required to contribute 7% of pay (8% if participant has a covered beneficiary or is married). The School System's contribution percentage is the actuarial determined amount necessary to fund Plan benefits after consideration of employee contributions.

47

The actuarial determined contribution amount is the sum of the annual normal cost (determined under the entry age normal actuarial cost method), and the amortization of the unfunded actuarial accrued liability as a level percentage of future payrolls. The remaining amortization period is closed 16 years remaining as of July 1, 2012.
The Plan's annual pension cost for the current fiscal year, based on actuarial valuations performed as of July 1, 2012 and related information for the Plan is as follows:

The schedule of funding progress, presented as RSI following the notes to the financial statements,

presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or

decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.

Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of events far into the future, and actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual revision as results are compared to past expectations and new estimates are made about the future.

Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. Calculations are based on the substantive plan in effect as of July 1, 2012.

P. Post-Employment Benefits
Georgia Retiree Health Benefit Fund
Plan Description. The Georgia School Personnel Post-employment Health Benefit Fund (School OPEB Fund) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit postemployment healthcare plan that covers eligible former employees of public school systems, libraries, and regional educational service agencies. The School OPEB Fund provides health insurance benefits to eligible former employees and their qualified beneficiaries through the State Employees Health Insurance Plan administered by the Georgia Department of Community Health. The Official Code of Georgia Annotated (OCGA) assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions of the group

49

health plans, including benefits for retirees, to the Board of Community Health (Board). The Georgia Department of Community Health issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the School OPEB Fund. That report may be obtained from the Georgia Department of Community Health at 2 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Georgia 30303.
Funding Policy- The contribution requirements of Plan members and participating employers are established by the Board in accordance with the current Appropriations Act and may be amended by the Board. Contributions of Plan members or beneficiaries receiving benefits vary based on Plan election, dependent coverage, and Medicare eligibility and election. On average, Plan members pay approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the cost of health insurance coverage.
Participating employers are statutorily required to contribute in accordance with the employer contribution rate established by the Board. This contribution rate is established to fund all benefits due under the health insurance plans for both the active and retired employees based on projected pay-as-you-go financing requirements. Contributions are not based on the actuarially calculated annual required contribution (ARC) which represents a level of funding that, if paid on an on-going basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years.
The employer contribution rates for the combined active and retiree plans for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, were as follows:

Certificated Employees July 2012- March 2013 April 2013- June 2013

$912.34 per month $937.34 per month

Non-Certificated Employees July 2012- June 2013

$446.20 per month

The School System's contribution to the health insurance plans for the fiscal year June 30, 2013, June 30, 2012, and June 30, 2011 were $43,426,063, $41,358,812 and $43,496,218, respectively. These contributions equaled the required contribution/annual OPEB cost.
Q. Commitments and Contingencies
Construction Commitments
The School System has active construction projects as of June 30, 2013. The projects relate to construction, renovation of school buildings, and other projects. At fiscal year-end, the School System's commitments with contractors were $44,680,768.
Litigation and Other Contingencies
The School System is a defendant in various lawsuits, which arose, in the ordinary course of its activities. The School System believes its liability in these matters is $ 515,000.

50

Amounts received or receivable 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 costs which are disallowed under grant terms. The School System believes that such disallowances, if any, will be immaterial to its overall financial position.
R. Pollution Remediation Obligations
GASB Statement No. 49, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pollution Remediation Obligations, establishes accounting and financial reporting criteria for liabilities that address current or potential detrimental effects of existing pollution by participating in pollution remediation activities. When one of five obligating events identified by the GASB occurs, the components of the expected pollution remediation outlays must be estimated, and a determination made whether the outlays should be accrued as a liability or capitalized when goods and services are acquired, as appropriate. Pollution remediation liabilities must be measured based on the pollution remediation outlays expected to be incurred to settle these liabilities. It must be based on "reasonable and supportable" assumptions of future events that may affect the eventual settlement of the liability, and should be measured and reported at current value. The current value of the liability should be based on applicable federal, state or local laws or regulations that have been approved, regardless of their effective date, and the technology expected to be used for the cleanup.
Outlays for pollution remediation obligations should be recognized as liabilities if goods and services used for pollution remediation activities are liquidated with expendable available financial resources (modified accrual accounting). However, pollution remediation outlays should be capitalized in the government-wide or proprietary fund statements when goods and services are acquired for certain specific purposes; these amounts are recorded as expenditures at the fund level. In government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, the liability should be recorded at the current value of the costs the government expects to incur to perform the work. This amount should be estimated using the expected cash flow technique, which measures the liability as the sum of probability-weighted amounts in a range of possible estimated amounts the estimated mean or average.
As of June 30, 2013, the School System was the responsible party in the remediation of mold removal, asbestos abatement, expired chemical disposal, paint disposal, light bulb disposal, tire disposal, and air quality testing. A site assessment and preliminary evaluation of required remediation indicated that the amount of liability is immaterial as of June 30, 2013 and therefore, not recorded in the governmental activities statement of net position. The potential liability is deemed immaterial at this time to record to the School System's financial statements. APS paid $301,670 for current financial fiscal year remediation activities.
S. Changes in Accounting Principle
In conjunction with the implementation of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, the School System is required to change its accounting treatment of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires that debt issuance costs be recognized as an expense in the period incurred rather than deferred and recognized as an expense (amortized) in a systematic and rational manner over the duration of the related debt as was the required treatment in prior reporting periods.
51

Therefore, in conjunction with the implementation of Statement No. 65, the following restatement was required to the beginning net position of the Governmental Activities to properly recognize debt issuance costs as an expense in the periods in which they were incurred:

Net position, Governmental Activities, previously reported Recognition of issuance costs incurred in prior periods Beginning net position , Governmental Activities, restated

$ 1,384,783,086 (1,381,985)
$ 1,383,401,101

T. Subsequent Event
On July 1, 2013, the School System entered into a Purchase and Sale agreement with East Lake Foundation, Inc. for an existing school facility known as Charles R. Drew Charter School. The School System acquired the facility for a cash consideration of $10,000,000 which was allocated to the School System by the State of Georgia for the sole purpose of acquiring the facility. The $10,000,000 allocation was fully funded through the issuance of bonds by the State of Georgia. The bonds are not an obligation of the School System and do not constitute a pledge of the faith and credit of the School System.
The School System will lease the facility back to East Lake Foundation for a lease term of ninetynine years, at the cost of $1 per year. East Lake Foundation will have an option to acquire the facility from the School System, on or after July 1, 2033, at a purchase price equal to the estimated costs anticipated to be incurred by the School System to hold title to the facility. East Lake Foundation is responsible for all of the costs of operating and maintaining the facility.
The State of Georgia commissioned an appraisal of the facility and estimated a value of $19,000,000. In fiscal year 2014, the School System will capitalize the building at the State appraised value, recognizing a gain of $9,000,000 on the purchase of the facility.

Notes:

Extraordinary item in 2007 closing of two charter schools. Changes in Instruction support 2007 to 2008 due to proper allocation of salary and benefits in 2008. In fiscal year 2008 change in pension expenditure. Large fluctuations in expenditures due to reclasses within functions in FY2009-2011 . Decrease in Sales tax income between FY10 and FY11 was due in part to the adjustment for overpayement of SPLOST proceeds.
