INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S COMBINED REPORT ON GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial statements of the Piedmont Regional Library, as of and for the year ended June 30, 1999, as listed in the table of contents. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Piedmont Regional Library's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Piedmont Regional Library as of June 30, 1999, and the results of its operations and the cash flows of its nonexpendable trust funds for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose financial statements of the Piedmont Regional Library taken as a whole. The accompanying combining statement (Exhibit G) and the financial schedules (Schedules 1 through 3), as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general purpose financial statements. Such
99ARL-40

information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit ofthe general purpose financial statements and in our opinion is fairly presented in all material respects in relation to the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole.
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 submitted,

NOTES TO THE GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30. 1999

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY
The Piedmont Regional Library (Library) operates pursuant to Official Code of Georgia Annotated Sections 20-5-40 through 20-5-59 to provide public library services with costs shared by participating local governmental agencies and grants from the State of Georgia. The financial statements of the Library have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as applied to governmental units and unless otherwise disclosed in these notes, the financial statements present all fund types and account groups of the Library.
The Library Board consists of 11 members; 3 members appointed by the Banks County Library Board, 4 members appointed by the Barrow County Library Board and 4 members appointed by Jackson County Library Board. The Library Board is without authority to determine the amount of its funding, except by submission ofbudget requests to local governmental units from which the Library receives support and to the State of Georgia for State and Federal funding. Membership in the Library and participation in library services is at the discretion of each participating governmental agency. The Library Board has the power to designate management, the power to retain unreserved fund balances of local and other funds for continued operations and is the lowest level of oversight responsibility for the Library's operations. The Piedmont Regional Library is therefore determined to be a joint venture.
FUND ACCOUNTING
The Library uses funds and an account group to report on its financial position and the results of its operations. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating transactions related to certain governmental functions or activities.
A fund is a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. An account group is a financial reporting device designed to provide accountability for certain assets and liabilities that are not recorded in the funds because they do not directly affect expendable available financial resources.
The general purpose financial statements account for all State, Local and Other funds under control of the Library, in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to governmental units, unless otherwise disclosed in these notes. Funds and the account group presented in this report are as follows:
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE - used to account for all or most of the Library's general activities. Governmental Fund Type includes:
GENERAL FUND - the fund used to account for all financial resources of the Library except those required to be accounted for in another fund. These transactions relate to resources obtained and used for services provided by a Library.

JUNE 30, 1999

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPE - the fund used to account for assets held by a government unit in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other government units and/or other funds. This fund includes:
NONEXPENDABLETRUSTFUNDS Lucille Nix Memorial Fund and Ted E. Roberts Book Fund - the funds used to account for endowments ofwhich the corpus is to be invested and preserved intact with the resultant income to be used to purchase books.
ACCOUNT GROUP
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS ACCOUNT GROUP - used to account for all general fixed assets acquired by the Library which includes land, buildings, equipment and inexhaustible collections and books. The land and buildings that house the Library are owned by Barrow County, Georgia.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities are generally included on the balance sheet. Operating statements of these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e" expenditures and other fmancing uses) in net current assets. Their reported fund balance is considered a measure of available spendable resources,
Liabilities which are expected to be financed from available spendable resources are reported as liabilities in the governmental funds.
Nonexpendable trust funds are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, all assets and liabilities associated with the operation ofthese funds are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements present increases (e.g., revenues) and decreases (e.g" expenses) in net total assets.
Governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting under which:
Revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e" when they become both measurable and available), "Measurable" means the amount ofthe transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities ofthe current period. Those revenues considered susceptible to accrual are intergovernmental grants and investment income,
Expenditures are generally recognized when the related fund liability is incurred.

NOTES TO T~E GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 1999

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accrual basis of accounting, as required by generally accepted accounting principles, is utilized by the nonexpendable trust funds. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred.
BUDGET
The Piedmont Regional Library's budget is a complete financial plan for the Library's fiscal year and is based upon estimates of expenditures together with probable funding sources. There is no statutory prohibition regarding overexpenditure of the budget at any level. The budget for all governmental funds is prepared by fund, function and object. The legal level of budget control was established by the Library at the aggregate level. The budget for governmental funds was prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The budget process begins when the Library's administration prepares a tentative aggregated budget for the Board's approval. After approval of this tentative budget by the Board, copies are sent to all local funding agencies. After funding approval is received from all local funding agencies, the Board makes revisions as necessary and adopts the budget. The budget is then submitted to the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia as a part of the Library's annual application for State aid. The Board may increase or decrease the budget at any time during the year. All unexpended budget authority lapses at fiscal year end,
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
COMPOSITION OF DEPOSITS Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits in authorized financial institutions. Georgia Laws authorize the Library to deposit its funds in one or more solvent banks, insured Federal savings and loan associations, or insured State chartered building and loan associations.
INVESTMENTS
COMPOSITION OF INVESTMENTS Investments made by the Library 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 are reported at fair value, The Official Code of Georgia Annotated Section 36-83-4 authorizes the Library to invest its funds, In selecting among options for investment or among institutional bids for deposits, the highest rate ofreturn 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,
(2) Obligations issued by the United States government,

(5) Prime banker's acceptances,
(6) The Local Government Investment Pool administered by the State of Georgia, Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services,
(7) Repurchase agreements, and
(8) Obligations of other political subdivisions of the State of Georgia.
RECEIVABLES
Receivables consist of grant reimbursements due on State or other grants for expenditures made but not reimbursed, allotted funds from participating local governments, and other receivables disclosed from information available. Receivables are recorded when either the asset or revenue recognition criteria has been met. Receivables recorded on the general purpose financial statements do not include any amounts which would necessitate the need for an allowance for uncollectible receivables.
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS
General fixed assets purchased, including capital outlay costs, are recorded as expenditures in the various funds at the time ofpurchase. All purchased general fixed assets are valued at cost where historical records are available and at estimated historical cost where no historical records exist. Donated general fixed assets are recorded at fair market value as of the date donated. Disposals are deleted at recorded cost. No depreciation has been provided on General Fixed Assets. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the assets or materially extend the useful lives of the assets is not capitalized. Infrastructure assets are not capitalized by the Library. The values of inexhaustible collections and books at the Library are not readily determinable, therefore, the Library has not capitalized them.
INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS
The Library has the following type of interfund transactions:
Reimbursements of expenditures/expenses initially made from a fund that are properly applicable to another fund are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed.

Note 4: RISK MANAGEMENT

The Library is exposed to various risks ofloss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors or omissions; job related illness or injuries to employees; natural disaster; and unemployment compensation.

The Library has obtained commercial insurance for risk of loss associated with assets and job related illness or injuries to employees. The Library has neither significantly reduced coverage for these risks nor incurred losses (settlements) which exceeded the Library's insurance coverage in any of the past three years.

The Library has elected to self-insure for all losses related to torts and natural disaster. In addition, the Library has elected to self-insure for errors or omissions, which includes, among other risks, risks for sexual harassment and discrimination. The Library has not experienced any losses related to these risks in the past three years.

The Library is self-insured with regard to unemployment compensation claims. The Library accounts for claims within the General Fund with expenditure and liability being reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred, and the amount ofthat loss can be reasonably estimated. The Library has not experienced any unemployment compensation claims during the last two years.
