Honorable Roy E. Barnes, Governor Members ofthe General Assembly of Georgia Members of the Board of Trustees of Georgia Military College
and Major General Peter J. Boylan, President
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S COMBINED REPORT ON REVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have reviewed the accompanying financial statements (Exhibits A through D) of Georgia Military College as of and for the year ended June 30, 2001, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute ofCertified Public Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of Georgia Military College.
A review consists principally ofinquiries ofCollege personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an op1mon.
Based on our review, with the exception ofthe matter described in the fourth paragraph, we are not aware ofany material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The College could not provide adequate subsidiary fixed asset records or other evidence supporting the Plant Fund Investment in Plant of $9,274,764.19 as shown on the Combined Balance Sheet. Accordingly, we were unable to satisfy ourselves as to the accuracy ofthis amount as reflected on the financial statements as of June 30, 2001.

01ARL-67X

Our review was made for the purpose of expressing limited assurance that there are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica. The accompanying financial schedule (Schedule 1) is presented for supplementary analysis purposes. Such information has been subjected to the inquiries and analytical procedures applied in the review of the financial statements and we are not aware of any material modifications which should be made thereto.
Respectfully submitted,

EXHIBIT "D"

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY Georgia Military College was created as a public authority and is an instrumentality of the State of Georgia and a public corporation. The Board of Trustees is composed of the mayor of the City of Milledgeville and six additional members, one of which shall be elected from each of the six municipal voting districts ofthe City ofMilledgeville. The government, control and management of Georgia Military College shall be vested in the Board of Trustees. Georgia Military College shall receive any designated funds appropriated by the General Assembly through the State Board of Regents. In order to incur debt, the Board ofTrustees must first receive permission from the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission, as required for all state authorities. Accordingly, Georgia Military College is considered a component unit ofthe State ofGeorgia reporting entity for financial reporting purposes because of the significance of its legal, operational, and financial relationships with the State of Georgia. These reporting entity relationships are defined in Section 2100 ofthe Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification ofGovernmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards.
FUND ACCOUNTING In order to ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on the use of the resources available to the College the accounts ofthe College are maintained in accordance with the principles offund accounting. This is the procedure by which resources for various purposes are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds that are in accordance with activities or objectives specified. Separate accounts are maintained for each fund; however, in the accompanying financial statements, funds that have similar characteristics have been combined into fund groups. Accordingly, all financial transactions have been recorded and reported by fund group.
Within each fund group, the College's fund balance allocations and designations represent those portions ofthe fund balances that are reserved, restricted and/or designated for specific future use by legal covenants or college policies.
Fund groups and funds presented in the accompanying financial statements are as follows:
CURRENT FUNDS
UNRESTRICTED - The fund used to account for those economic resources over which the College retains full control to use for purposes of performing the primary functions of the College, e.g., instruction, auxiliary enterprises, student activities, etc.
RESTRICTED - The fund used to record externally restricted funds which may only be utilized in accordance with the purposes established by their source. Restricted current funds are recorded as revenues and expenditures when expended for current operating purposes.

ENDOWMENT FUNDS
The fund used to account for gifts that are subject to the restrictions ofgift instruments requiring that the principal be invested in perpetuity and income only be utilized.
PLANT FUNDS

Net Investment in Plant is an equity account showing the total book value of physical properties belonging to the College less the amount of any indebtedness to others.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The financial statements of Georgia Military College have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

The Statement of Current Funds Revenues, Expenditures and Other Changes is a statement of financial activities of current funds related to the current reporting period. It does not purport to present the results of operations or the net income or loss for the period as would a statement of income or a statement of revenues and expenses.
Prior period adjustments and certain other items are reported as additions to and deductions from fund balances of current funds in the accompanying financial statements. This presentation is in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State ofGeorgia, but differs from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica in that immaterial adjustments should be reported as current period revenues and expenditures. The effect ofthis departure is deemed to be immaterial to the fair presentation ofthe financial statements.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and Cash Equivalents consist of petty cash, demand deposits, certificates of deposit and temporary investments in authorized financial institutions.
INVESTMENTS Investments are reported at fair value. Funds received by the College as endowments or for restricted purposes are invested according to conditions stipulated by the donor, grantor, or in

Accordingly, DOAS processes claims for risk of loss to which the State is exposed, including general liability, property and casualty, workers' compensation, unemployment compensation, and law enforcement officers' indemnification.. Limited amounts of commercial insurance are purchased applicable to property, employee and automobile liability, fidelity and certain other risks. The College, as part of the State of Georgia reporting entity, is covered by the State of Georgia risk management program administered by DOAS. Premiums for the risk management program are charged to the various state organizations by DOAS to provide claims servicing and claims payment.

CORRECTIVE ACTION/RESPONSES

GENERAL LEDGER Inadequate Endowment Agreements/No Separate Accountability Finding Control Number: FS-590-98-08

A resolution was presented to the Georgia Military College Board of Trustees at the April 9, 2001, meeting to impose restrictions on the investments of principal, use of income, or termination of the endowments where no formal agreements exist. The resolution would initiate a Georgia Military College Trustees Scholarship Fund using funds from the Edgar B. Jackson Scholarship Fund and the Charles Whitfield Scholarship Fund.

The Board ofTrustees tabled the resolution until a determination is made that there are no descendants of either the Jackson family or the Whitfield family.

In November 2001, a representative ofthe Edgar Bell Jackson family signed a statement releasing the Georgia Military College Trustees from any liability concerning the original scholarship agreement. As ofJune 30, 2001, the Trustee's endowment account for the scholarship contained $5,748.11. A resolution to add these funds to the General Scholarship Endowment will be presented at the January 2002 Georgia Military College Board of Trustees meeting.

The Development Office of Georgia Military College will continue their research to locate any descendants of the John Bulow Campbell family.

There was no documentation of an endowment agreement for the Al and Charlotte Gandy Scholarship. However there was documentation expressing the donor intent of the distribution of the earned income. An endowment agreement will be completed in this fiscal year.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS/PROPERTY MANAGEMENT Inadequacies in Operation of Property Management System Finding Control Number: FS-590-01-01
The College was unable to provide complete subsidiary fixed assets records or other historical cost evidence supporting the balance for general fixed assets recorded on the financial statements. Proper internal controls necessitate the maintenance of subsidiary records for general fixed assets.
This condition resulted from management's failure to adequately monitor and implement procedures to ensure that all general fixed assets are properly recorded and accounted for.
The College should take appropriate action to provide for an adequate property management system for general fixed assets, which would include subsidiary records that reflect an inventory of land, buildings, and equipment owned by the College. Detailed records should be maintained for all deletions and additions to the Plant Fund. The College should also implement procedures to periodically reconcile physical inventory counts offixed assets to the subsidiary records and ensure that those records agree with the General Ledger.
