Honorable Zell Miller, Governor Members of the General Assembly ofGeorgia 
and Honorable Marcus E. Collins, Sr., Commissioner Department ofRevenue 
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S COMBINED REPORT ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION 
Ladies and Gentlemen: 
We have audited the accompanying :financial statements (Exhibits A through F) ofthe Department of Revenue as of and for the year ended June 30, 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Department's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 financial statements are free ofmaterial 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. 
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. 
As more fully discussed in Section II, Findings and Improper or Questioned Costs, material discrepancies were noted in the equipment inventory records of the Department. Equipment inventory comprises the General Fixed Assets Account Group. We were unable to determine the effects these discrepancies may have on the financial statements. 
In our opinion, except for the effects on the :financial statements ofthe adjustments to the equipment inventory records that may be necessary as described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position (statutory basis) of the Department of 
94ARL-2 
 
 Revenue as ofJune 30, 1994, and the results ofits operations (statutory basis) for the year then ended, on the basis of accounting described in Note 1. 
Our audit was made for the purpose offorming an opinion on the :financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary information (Exhibit G and Schedules 1 through 6) is presented for purposes ofadditional analysis and is not a required part ofthe :financial statements ofthe Department of Revenue. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly presented in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. 
Respectfully submitted, 
c::1~~

NOTE 1: SUM?\.,fARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
REPORTING ENTITY The Department ofRevenue, an organizational unit of the State of Georgia, is part ofthe executive branch ofthe government ofthe State ofGeorgia. It is the chieftax collection agency for the State ofGeorgia. The principal taxes collected are those on sales, motor fuel, income, alcoholic beverages, cigars and cigarettes, property, motor vehicle licenses, and estates. The executive officer of the Department is the Revenue Commissioner, who is appointed by the Governor with the consent of the Senate ofthe General Assembly of Georgia. It is the Revenue Commissioner's duty to administer all Georgia tax laws and he is empowered to make all rules and regulations necessary for the enforcement ofthose laws. 
The Department ofRevenue does not have authority to determine the amount offunding it will receive from the State of Georgia for any given fiscal year. Such authority is vested in the General Assembly ofGeorgia. The Department also does not have authority to retain unexpended State appropriations (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, the Department ofRevenue is included within the State ofGeorgia reporting entity for financial reporting purposes because of the significance ofits legal, operational and financial relationships with the State ofGeorgia. These reporting entity relationships are defined in Section 2100 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification ofGovernmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards. 
FUND ACCOUNTING The Department ofRevenue uses funds and account groups to report on its financial position and the results ofits operations determined in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations ofthe State ofGeorgia. 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 TYPES 
BUDGET FUND - The fund used to account for activities and functions as set forth in the Amended Appropriations Act of 1993-1994. 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. 
STATE REVENUE COLLECTIONS FUND - The fund used to account for the collection of specific revenues ofthe State ofGeorgia as provided by statute or administrative action and the subsequent transfer of such funds to the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services. This presentation differs from generally accepted accounting principles in that such activity should be included in the General Fund of the governmental organization.

FUND ACCOUNTING 
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPE 
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-tenn 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. 
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES 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 appropriations, Federal grants and entitlements, and certain amounts earned under operating agreements with other parties. Further, the modified accrual basis ofaccounting calls for expenditures, other than accrued interest ofgeneral long-tenn 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 ofencumbrances 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 offund balance. Further, revenue recognition for expenditure-driven grants should be based upon expenditures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 
Prior period adjustments and certain other items are reported as additions to and deductions from fund 
balances ofthe 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. 
STATE REVENUE COLLECTIONS FUND The State Revenue Collections Fund is maintained on the Cash Receipts and Disbursements basis of accounting as prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State of Georgia. This basis of accounting is defined as that method of accounting in which certain revenue and the related assets are 
recognized when received.rather than when earned, and certain expenses are recognized when paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. The State Revenue Collections Fund, which should be included in the General 
Fund in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, should be maintained on the modified accrual basis of accounting. 
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPE AGENCY FUNDS 
The 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 Appropriation allotments to the Department of Revenue are on the basis of a budget submitted by the Department and approved by the Legislature and the Governor. The budget is compiled in the same manner as all State departments and expenditures are classified by budget unit object classes as provided in Act No. 608 ofGeorgia Laws 1993 (as approved April 28, 1993) and amended by Act No. 622 of Georgia Laws 1994 (as approved February 8, 1994), which is an appropriated budget and is referred to in these notes as the Amended Appropriations Act of 1993-1994.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and Cash Equivalents include currency on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and cash management pools that have the general characteristics of demand deposit accounts in that the Department may deposit additional cash at any time and also may withdraw cash at any time without prior notice or penalty. 
INVENTORIES Inventories ofsupplies are valued at weighted average cost on the Combined Balance Sheet (Statutory Basis). The consumption method is used to account for the use ofinventories. Under the consumption method, the costs ofinventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. 
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: 
INVENTORIES Reported inventories, under the consumption method, are offset by a portion of State funds to provide working capital for managing a reasonable level of inventories. 
STATE REVENUE COLLECTIONS FUND The balance ofrevenues collected but not transmitted to the Office ofTreasury and Fiscal Services at fiscal year end. These funds are required by the Official Code of Georgia Annotated to be transferred to the Office ofTreasury and Fiscal Services and are not available for use by the Department. 
COMPENSATED ABSENCES Compensated absences represent obligations of the Department relating to employee's rights to receive compensation for future absences based upon services already rendered. This obligation relates only to vesting accumulating annual leave in which payment is probable and can be reasonably estimated. No liability has been recorded in the individual funds for the current portion ofthis obligation as this amount will not be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Funds are provided in the appropriation of funds each year to Department to cover the cost of annual leave paid to terminated employees. 
The liability for compensated absences at year end is reported in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group for governmental funds.

NOTE7: RETIREMENTPLANS 
EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA The Department ofRevenue participates in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia, a single-employer, defined benefit pension plan. The Employees' Retirement System of Georgia was established by the General Assembly of Georgia for the purpose of providing retirement allowances for employees of the State of Georgia. The Retirement System is funded through a combination of employee and employer contributions. Employees are required to contnbute a graduated percentage ofannual compensation. Employer contributions are for a specified percentage ofactive member payroll determined annually by an actuarial valuation. During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Department contributed $5,582,664.88 to the Employees' Retirement System ofGeorgia. Participation in the Retirement System is not segregated by employee groups of individual governmental units and the Department has no further liability under the retirement system other than future employer contributions as established for each fiscal year.

Certain employees of the offices of the tax commissioners, tax collectors, and tax receivers ofthe counties ofthe State ofGeorgia have been declared by State law to be adjuncts ofthe Department ofRevenue, and as such, have been afforded the opportunity to become members ofthe Employees' Retirement System of Georgia (ERS). As a result, the Department has been directed by statute to pay the employer's portion for these offices directly to ERS from funds appropriated by the General Assembly for this purpose. During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Department contributed $2,555,255.00 to ERS on behalfofthese offices. The Department has no further liability under the retirement system other than future employer contributions as established for each fiscal year.

 SECTION II FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS 
 
 DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS 
YEAR ENDED WNE 30, 1994 
CURRENT YEAR 
GENERAL FIXED ASSETS/PROPERTY MANAGEMENT Inadequacies in Operation ofProperty Management System Financial Statements Audit Control Number 474-94-01 
For the year under review, our examination included a review of the internal controls utilized by the Department of Revenue in maintaining their State Property System. This review consisted of testing the system for compliance with the State equipment laws and regulations. In addition, procedures were completed to verify the accuracy of the total equipment inventory valuation contained in the inventory records, which comprises the General Fixed Assets Account Group. 
A sample of 129 equipment items was selected to test the accuracy ofthe inventory system's control attributes. The results ofthis sample disclosed the following deficiencies: 
(1) Two items of equipment were combined and recorded as a single addition on the Department's property management system. 
(2) One item of equipment which was purchased in Fiscal Year 1993 was not recorded on the Department's property management system until Fiscal Year 1994. 
(3) Four items of equipment were recorded on the Department's property management system with an incorrect purchase price. 
(4) Four items ofequipment were recorded twice on the Department's property management system. 
As a result of the discrepancies identified above we were unable to determine the validity of the total equipment inventory valuation contained in the inventory records, which comprises the General Fixed Assets Account Group. 
The Department ofRevenue should establish the necessary accounting controls and implement procedures to ensure the equipment inventory records are maintained in accordance with the STATE PROPERTY SYSTEM 
MANUAL. 
REVENUES/RECEIPTS Inadequacies in Documentation ofMotor Vehicle Revenue Collections Financial Statements Audit Control Number 474-94-02 
Our examination ofthe State Revenue Collections Fund for the year under review disclosed certain deficiencies in the system ofcontrols over the performance ofaccounting related functions ofthe Motor Vehicle Division. The Division failed to provide adequate documentation to support revenue collections for the "Motor Vehicle Registration-Tag County Office Sales- Gross Collections" recorded in the Department of Revenue's general

ledger as subsidiary records provided for audit could not be reconciled to the general ledger. This deficiency was a result ofrevenue collections from county tag offices not being identified, categorized and posted to the subsidiary records in a timely manner. 
The Department of Revenue should take steps to eliminate the backlog of "Unprocessed Documents" and establish the necessary accounting controls and procedures to ensure that revenue is recognized when received and is supported by proper documentation.
