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 the Georgia Student Finance Commission 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 the Georgia Student Finance Commission.
A review consists principally of inquiries of agency 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 ofany 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 ofexpressing limited assurance that there were 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 1. The accompanying supplementary information (Exhibits H through Kand Schedules 1 through 7) is presented only for supplementary analysis purposes. Such information has been
94ARL-4
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.

The Commission was created for the purpose of administering a Guaranteed Educational Loan Program in the State of Georgia. The Board of Commissioners of the Georgia Student Finance Commission consists of sixteen (16) members. Four (4) members reside on the Board by virtue of their position in State Government. They are the Chancellor of the University System of Georgia, the Commissioner of Technical and Adult Education, the State School Superintendent and the Director of the Office of Planning and Budget. The remaining twelve (12) members are appointed by the Governor and subject to confirmation by the Senate.

The Georgia Student Finance Commission does not have authority to determine the amount of funding it will receive from the State of Georgia for any given fiscal year. Such authority is vested in the General Assembly of Georgia. The Commission also does not have authority to retain unexpended State appropriations (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, the Georgia Student Finance Commission is included within the State of Georgia 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 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards.
FUND ACCOUNTING The Georgia Student Finance Commission uses funds and account groups to report on its financial position and the results of its operations determined in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the 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 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.

FUND ACCOUNTING
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES
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.
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 of certain 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.
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 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 of the current period. Revenues that are accrued include primarily State appropriations, Federal

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES BUDGET FUND
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 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 of Georgia, 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 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 of the 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 Georgia Student Finance Commission are on the basis of budgets submitted by the Commission and approved by the Legislature and the Governor. The budgets are compiled in the same manner as all State departments and expenditures are classified by budget unit object classes as provided in

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and Cash Equivalents include demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions and cash management pools that have the general characteristics of demand deposit accounts in that the Commission may deposit additional cash at any time and also may withdraw cash at any time without prior notice or penalty.
INVENTORIES No inventories of supplies 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:
FEDERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE The residual portion ofFederal financial assistance revenues not yet expended or encumbered. This amount is restricted for expenditure in future years. This accounting treatment differs from generally accepted accounting principles in that the unearned portion of Federal financial assistance should be reflected as deferred revenue.
GEORGIA HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE CORPORATION The residual portion of Georgia Higher Education Assistance Corporation revenues not yet expended or encumbered. This amount is restricted for expenditure in future years.
GEORGIA STUDENT FINANCE AUTHORITY The residual portion of Georgia Student Finance Authority revenues not yet expended or encumbered. This amount is restricted for expenditure in future years.
LOTTERY FOR EDUCATION The residual portion ofLottery Proceeds revenue not yet expended or encumbered. This amount is retained for financial aid claims to students not submitted to the Department as of June 30, 1994.
STATE REVENUE COLLECTIONS FUND The balance ofrevenues collected but not transmitted to the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services at fiscal year end. These funds are required by the Official Code of Georgia Annotated to be transferred to the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services and are not available for use by the Commission.

COMPENSATED ABSENCES Compensated absences represent obligations of the Commission 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 of this obligation as this amount will not be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Funds are provided in the appropriation of funds each year to the Commission 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.
MEMORANDUM ONLY - TOTAL COLUMNS Total columns on the Combined Statements (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, results ofoperations or changes in 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 Commission'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.

NOTE6: RETIREMENTPLANS
EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA The Georgia Student Finance Commission 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 ofthe State of Georgia. The Retirement System is funded through a combination of employee and employer contributions. Employees are required to contribute a graduated percentage of annual compensation. Employer contributions are for a specified percentage of active member payroll determined annually by an actuarial valuation. During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Commission contributed $506,702.29 to the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia. Participation in the Retirement System is not segregated by employee groups of individual governmental units and the Commission has no further liability under the retirement system other than future employer contributions as established for each fiscal year. Information relative to the plan description, funding status and historical trends is presented in the financial report ofthe Employees' Retirement System of Georgia for the year ended June 30, 1994.
GEORGIA DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN The State ofGeorgia also provides retirement coverage for temporary, seasonal, and part-time employees who are not eligible for membership in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia referred to above through a single-employer defined contribution plan. The Georgia Defined Contribution Plan was established by the General Assembly of Georgia and is administered by the Board of Trustees of the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia. Covered employees are required to contribute 7.5% of their gross salary, with no matching contribution by the employer. A member who terminates employment may apply for a refund of contributions and interest. Benefits are based solely on the amount contributed by the employee plus investment earnings. Upon discretion ofthe Board of Trustees, members who leave employment with less than $3,500.00 credited to their account may be required to make a lump-sum withdrawal. Members are eligible to retire at the age of65 with the option ofreceiving a periodic payment based on mortality tables and interest accumulation as adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia.

GEORGIA DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN Information relative to the plan description and funding status is presented in the financial report of the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia for the year ended June 30, 1994.
NOTE 7: LEAVE POLICIES
Employees earn ten hours of sick leave each month with a maximum accumulation of ninety days. Unused accumulated sick leave does not vest with the employee and is forfeited upon retirement or termination of employment.

NOTE 8: CONTINGENCIES
Amounts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies. This could result in refunds to the grantor agency for any expenditures which are disallowed under grant terms. The amount of expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although the Commission expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial to its overall financial position.
Litigation, claims and assessments filed against the Georgia Student Finance Commission, if any, are generally considered to be actions against the State of Georgia. Pursuant to the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, the Department of Administrative Services maintains a program of purchased insurance and self- insurance which provides coverage for such litigation, claims and assessments.
