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 G) of North Georgia Technical Institute as of and for the year ended June 30, 1994, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. As described in Note 1, these financial statements were prepared on a prescribed basis of accounting that 
demonstrates compliance with the budgetary statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia, which is a 
comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of North Georgia Technical Institute. 
A review consists principally of inquiries of Institute personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. 
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with the basis of accounting described in Note 1. 
Our review was made for the purpose 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 the basis of accounting described in Note I. The accompanying supplementary information (Exhibits H through Kand Schedules 1 through 3) is presented only for supplementary analysis purposes. Such information has been 
94ARL-4T 
 
 subjected to the inquiries and analytical procedures applied in the review of the financial statements, and we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made thereto. 
Respectfully submitted, 
~~~ 
Claude L. Vickers State Auditor

NOTE 1: SUM11ARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
REPORTING ENTITY North Georgia Technical Institute is one of twenty-eight (28) State supported member institutes of postsecondary education in Georgia which comprise the Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education, an organizational unit of the State of Georgia. The accompanying financial statements reflect the operations ofNorth Georgia Technical Institute as a separate reporting entity. 
The Institute's Local Board ofDirectors is composed of nine (9) members serving staggered three-year terms who are appointed by the State Board of Technical and Adult Education. Appropriation of State funds is made to the Georgia Department ofTechnical and Adult Education by the General Assembly of Georgia. The Department's Administrative Central Office determines the amount of State funds to be received by North Georgia Technical Institute. The Institute does not have authority to retain unexpended State funds (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, North Georgia Technical Institute is considered an organizational unit ofthe Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education for financial reporting purposes because of the significance of its legal, operational, and financial relationships as defined in Section 2100 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards. 
FUND ACCOUNTING North Georgia Technical Institute uses funds and account groups to report on its financial position and the results of its operations determined in conformity with the accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State of Georgia. 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, on the other hand, 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 net expendable available financial resources. 
Funds and account groups presented in the accompanying financial statements are as follows: 
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE 
BUDGET FUND - The fund used to account for activities and functions as set forth in the Amended Appropriations Act of 1993-1994. This fund also includes operations from various institutional services provided to students, faculty, and/or staff which are funded by fees charged to participants that are directly related to, but not necessarily equal to, the cost of service. The Budget Fund is similar in nature to a General Fund as identified in generally accepted accounting principles in that the Budget Fund is used to account for all activities except those required to be accounted for in some other fund. 
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPES 
NONEXPENDABLE TRUST FUND - The fund used to account for assets, revenues, and expenses utilized in accordance with the provisions ofthe trust established by individual agreement, statute, or administrative action. Nonexpendable trust funds are used when only the revenues earned on the principal (corpus) of the

FUND ACCOUNTING 
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPES 
NONEXPENDABLETRUSTFUND trust may be expended for the purposes designated in the trust agreement and the principal of the trust agreement must remain intact. 
AGENCY FUNDS - The funds used to account for assets held for use by other funds, governments, or individuals. 
ACCOUNT GROUPS 
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS - The account group used to account for fixed assets used in governmental fund type operations. Fixed assets purchased are recorded at historical cost. Donated fixed assets are recorded at fair market value on the date donated. Disposals are deleted at recorded values. No depreciation has been provided on general fixed assets. 
GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT - The account group used to report the noncurrent portions ofcertain governmental long-term liabilities, such as claims, judgments, and compensated absences, which will be paid from future resources. 
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING MEASUREMENT FOCUS 
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. Governmental funds should be accounted for using the current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements ofthese funds present increases (i.e., revenues) and decreases (i.e.,expenditures) in net current assets. Nonexpendable trust funds, on the other hand, should be accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus, in which all assets and all liabilities are included on the balance sheet. However, in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the State of Georgia, the nonexpendable trust funds utilize the current financial resources measurement focus. 
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE BUDGET FUND 
Except as disclosed in the following paragraphs, units of government of the State of Georgia record their Budget Fund revenues and expenditures in accordance with the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis ofaccounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e.,when they become both measurable and available). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Revenues that are accrued include primarily State funds, Federal grants and entitlements, and certain amounts earned under operating agreements with other parties. Further, the modified

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE BUDGET FUND 
accrual basis of accounting calls for expenditures, other than accrued interest of general long-term debt, to be recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. 
Contractual obligations for services which have not been performed and for goods which have not been delivered at the end of the fiscal year are recognized as expenditures and liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. This accounting practice causes expenditure-driven grant revenues to be accrued based in part on the unexecuted portion of contracts for goods and services. The recognition of encumbrances as expenditures and liabilities is in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State ofGeorgia, but is not consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, which provide for the recording of encumbrances as a reservation of fund balance. Further, revenue recognition for expenditure-driven grants should be based upon expenditures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 
Prior period adjustments are reported as additions to and deductions from fund balance of the Budget Fund in the accompanying financial statements. This presentation is in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State of Georgia, but differs from generally accepted accounting principles in that immaterial adjustments should be reported as current period revenues and expenditures. 
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPES NONEXPENDABLETRUSTFUND 
The Nonexpendable Trust Fund is maintained in accordance with the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become both measurable and available). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities ofthe current period. Revenues that are accrued include primarily interest income and certain amounts earned under terms ofthe trust agreements. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. 
A Statement ofCash Flows is not presented for the Nonexpendable Trust Fund in the accompanying financial statements as required by generally accepted accounting principles. 
AGENCY FUNDS Agency Funds are custodial in nature in that assets are equally offset by liabilities to other funds, governmental units, or individuals. The modified accrual basis of accounting is utilized for recognizing assets and liabilities. 
BUDGET The Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education - Administrative Central Office receives State appropriated funds and certain Federal funds for the various technical institutes throughout the State. The

BUDGET appropriated budget is adopted at the departmental level and represents appropriations provided by the Amended Appropriations Act of 1993-1994. The budget allocation and disbursement of these funds is made to the various technical institutes by the Administrative Central Office. In addition, the technical institutes receive certain Federal funds and other funds directly and include these funds in the budget filed with the Administrative Central Office. 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and Cash Equivalents include currency on hand and demand deposits with banks and other authorized financial institutions. 
INVESTMENTS Investments are defined as those financial instruments with terms of three months or more from the date of purchase and certain other securities held for the production of revenue. Investments are stated at cost. 
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable consist ofreimbursements due from Federal, State, local and private grants and contracts, and other receivables disclosed from information available. 
INVENTORIES No inventories ofsupplies are reported in the current financial statements. Expendable supplies are recorded as expenditures at the time of purchase. 
RESERVED FUND BALANCE Reserves represent those portions of fund equity not appropriable for expenditure or legally segregated for a specific future use. The following is a brief description of the reserves reflected in the accompanying financial statements: 
LIVE WORK PROJECTS The accumulated balance of unexpended funds derived from student live work projects. This amount is restricted to expenditures for live work projects in subsequent fiscal years. 
ENDOWMENT CORPUS The principal (corpus) of the Lenora M. Sarling Scholarship Fund. This amount must remain intact per provisions of the trust agreement. 
COMPENSATED ABSENCES Compensated absences represent obligations of the Institute relating to employees' rights to receive compensation for future absences based upon services already rendered. This obligation relates only to vesting accumulated leave in which payment is probable and can be reasonably estimated. No liability has been recorded in the Budget Fund for the current portion ofthis obligation as this amount will not be liquidated with

The liability for compensated absences at year-end is reported in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group for governmental funds. 
MEMORANDUM ONLY - TOTAL COLUMNS Total columns on the Combined Balance Sheet (Statutory Basis) are captioned "Memorandum Only" to indicate that they are presented only to facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not present financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Neither are such data comparable to a consolidation. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data. 
COMPARATIVE DATA Comparative total data for the prior year have been presented in the accompanying financial statements in order to provide an understanding of changes in the Institute's financial position and operations. However, comparative data have not been presented in all statements because their inclusion would make certain statements unduly complex and difficult to understand. 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the comparative data in order to provide comparability with the current year classifications.
