INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S COMBINED REPORT ON REVIEW OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have reviewed the accompanying financial statements (Ex!nbits A through F) of Macon Technical Institute as ofand for the year ended June 30, 1995, 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 ofMacon 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 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 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 1. The accompanying supplementary information (Exhibits G through J and Schedules 1 through 4) is presented only for supplementary analysis purposes. Such information has been

95ARL-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,

MACON TECHNICAL INSTITUTE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEl\IBNTS
JUNE 30 1995

EXHIBIT "F"

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY Macon Technical Institute is one of twenty-nine (29) State supported member institutes of postsecondary education in Georgia which comprise the Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education, an organizational unit ofthe State of Georgia. The accompanying financial statements reflect the operations of Macon Technical Institute as a separate reporting entity.
The Institute's Local Board ofDirectors is composed of eleven (11) 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 of Technical 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 Macon Technical Institute. The Institute does not have authority to retain unexpended State funds (surplus) for any
given fiscal year. Accordingly, Macon Technical Institute is considered an organizational unit ofthe Georgia
Department ofTechnical 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 ofGovernmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards.
FUND ACCOUNTING Macon Technical Institute 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 ofthe State of Georgia. A fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds are maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. Account groups are a reporting device used to account for certain assets and liabilities of the governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds.
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 1994-1995. 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 TYPE
AGENCY FUNDS - The funds used to account for assets held for use by other funds, governments, or individuals.

MACON TECHNICAL INSTITUTE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30 1995

EXIIlBIT "F"

NOTE I: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
FUND ACCOUNTING
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 cost or at estimated historical cost ifhistorical cost is not practically determinable. 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.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value ofthe asset or materially extend assets' lives are not included in the General Fixed Assets Account Group. Material improvements adding to the value or useful life ofthe assets are included in the General Fixed Assets Account Group.
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 flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Wrth this measurement focus, operating statements present increases and decreases in net current assets and unreserved fund balance is a measure of available spendable resources. In accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by statutes and regulations of the State ofGeorgia, the Budget Fund returns its unreserved fund balance (surplus) to the Administrative Central Office ofthe Department ofTechnical and Adult Education for remittance to the Office ofTreasury and Fiscal Services in the subsequent fiscal year.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE BUDGETFUND
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 ofaccounting. Under the modified accrual basis ofaccounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they are "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 pay liabilities ofthe current period. Revenues that are accrued include primarily State funds, Federal grants and entitlements, and certain amounts earned under operating agreements with other parties. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for unmatured interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due, and certain compensated absences, claims and judgments which are recognized when the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources.

MACON TECHNICAL INSTITUTE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

EXHIBIT "F"

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPE BUDGETFUND
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 and certain other items 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 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.

TEACHERS RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Plan Description Macon Technical Institute participates in the Teachers Retirement System ofGeorgia (TRS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer public employee retirement system (PERS) established by the General Assembly ofGeorgia for the purpose of providing retirement allowances and other benefits for teachers of the State of Georgia. The Institute's payroll for the year ended June 30, 1995, for employees covered by TRS was $2,885,270.28. The Institute's total payroll for all employees was $5,142,273.22.
Benefits TRS provides service retirement, disability retirement, and survivor's benefits for its members. A member is eligible for service retirement after the member (1) has attained the age of60 years and has at least ten years ofcreditable service, (2) has at least 30 years ofcreditable service, regardless of age, or (3) has attained the age of55 years and has at least 25 years ofcreditable service. For those members with 30 years of service or those age 60 with at least ten years of service, retirement benefits are equal to 2% of the average of the member's two consecutive highest paid years ofservice multiplied by the number ofyears of creditable service up to 40 years. Any member who has between 25 and 30 years ofcreditable service and is at least 55 years ofage shall receive a benefit which is reduced by the lessor of 1/12 of 7% for each month the member is below age 60, or by 7% for each year or fraction thereofby which the member has less than 30 years of service. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life. Options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension at a reduced rate to a designated beneficiary on the member's death.
Retirement benefits also include death and disability benefits whereby the disabled member or surviving spouse is entitled to receive annually an amount equal to the member's service retirement benefit or disability retirement, whichever is greater. The benefit is based on member's creditable service (minimum of 10 years ofservice) and compensation up to the date ofdeath or up to the time of disability.
Members become fully vested after ten years of service. If a member terminates with less than ten years of service, no vesting ofemployer contributions occurs, but the member's contributions are refunded with interest.

Contributions Required and Contributions Made Employees of the Institute who are covered by TRS are required to pay 5% oftheir gross earnings to TRS. The Institute makes monthly employer contributions to TRS at rates adopted by the TRS Board of Trustees as advised by their independent actwuy. For fiscal year 1995, the employer contribution rate was 11.81% for covered employees. The interest rate assumption (rate of return on investments) was 7.50%.

Total contnbutions to the plan made during fiscal year 1995 amounted to $484,861.24, of which $336,539.92 was made by the Institute, $4,057.44 was made by the Georgia Department of Education on behalf of the Institute and $144,263.88 was made by employees. These contributions represented 11.81% (Institute) and 5% (employees) of covered payroll.

Funding Status and Progress Pension Benefit Obligation
The amount of the total pension benefit obligation is based on a standardized measurement established by Statement No. 5 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) that is required to be used for reporting purposes. The standardized measurement is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits. This pension valuation method reflects the present value of estimated pension benefits that will be paid in future years as a result of employee services performed to-date and is adjusted for the effects of projected salary increases and any step-rate benefits. A standardized measure of the pension benefit obligation was adopted by the GASB to enable readers ofthe PERS financial statements to assess that PERS funding status on a going-concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and
make comparisons among similar PERS.

Pension Benefit Obligation The total unfunded pension benefit obligation ofTRS as ofJune 30, 1994, which was the latest information available, was as follows:

Total pension benefit obligation

$15,313,743,000.00

Net assets available for benefits, at cost

14 254 785 000.00

Unfunded pension benefit obligation

$ I 058 958 000 00

The measurement ofthe total pension benefit obligation is based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 1994. Net assets available for benefits were valued as of the same date. TRS does not make separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligation for individual employers.

Retirement System Contributions Total contributions from all employers to TRS for the year ended June 30, 1995, were $565,117,811.00. The Institute's contribution for the year ended June 30, 1995, of $340,597.36 was actuarially determined and represented 0.0603% oftotal contributions made by all participating employers.

EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Plan Description Macon Technical Institute participates in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia (ERS), a singleemployer defined benefit pension plan established by the General Assembly of Georgia for the purpose of providing retirement allowances .for employees of the State of Georgia. The Institute's payroll for the year ended June 30, 1995, for employees covered by ERS was $1,291,808.10. The Institute's total payroll for all employees was $5,142,273.22.
Benefits The benefit structure ofERS was significantly modified on July 1, 1982. Unless elected otherwise, an employee who currently maintains membership with ERS based upon State employment that started prior to July l, 1982, is an "old plan" member subject to the plan provisions in effect prior to July 1, 1982. All other members are "new plan" members subject to the modified plan provisions.
Members become vested after 10 years of creditable service. A member may retire and receive normal retirement benefits after completion of 10 years of creditable service and attainment of age 65. Retirement benefits paid to members are based upon a formula which considers the monthly average of the member's highest eight consecutive calendar quarters of salary, the number of years of creditable service, and the member's age at retirement. Postretirement cost-of-living adjustments are also made to member's benefits. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life; however, options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension at reduced rates to a designated beneficiary upon the member's death. Death and disability benefits are also available through ERS. If 10 years of service is completed and age 60 is reached, the member may retire with a reduced benefit. Additionally, there are certain provisions allowing for retirement after 30 years of service regardless ofage.
Contributions Required and Contributions Made Under the old plan, member contributions consist of employee contributions paid by the employee of 1.25% ofannual compensation and 4. 75% ofannual compensation paid by the Institute on behalf of the employee. Under the new plan, member contributions consist solely of 1.25% of annual compensation paid by employee. The Institute also is required to contribute at a specified percentage of active member payroll determined annually by actuarial valuation. Contributions are also made on amounts paid for accumulated leave of retiring employees.

These contributions represented 14.89"/o (Institute) and 1.25% (employees) of covered payroll.

Funding Status and Progress Pension Benefit Obligation
The amount shown as the "pension benefit obligation" is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value ofpension benefits, adjusted for the effects ofprojected salary increases and step-rate benefits, estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The measure is intended to help users assess the funding status ofERS on the going-concern basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and make comparisons among employers. The measure is the actuarial present value ofcredited projected benefits, and is independent of the funding method used to determine contributions to the plan.

The pension benefit obligation was computed as part of an actuarial valuation performed as of June 30, 1994. Significant actuarial assumptions used in the valuation include the following:

(1) The present value offuture pension benefits paid was computed using a discounted rate of7.5%. This rate is also the same rate assumed to be earned on investments in the plan in future years.

(2) Future pension payments reflect the following assumed salary increases as a result of inflation and merit increases:

~
20 25 30 35 40 to 65

Percentage
9.5% 8.5% 6.5% 6.0% 5.7%

(3) ERS has the authority to grant cost-of-living adjustments by State statute. As ofJune 30, 1994, cost-of-living adjustments have been included in the pension benefit obligation.

The total unfunded pension benefit obligation ofERS as of June 30, 1994, which was the latest information available, was as follows:

The measurement ofthe total pension benefit obligation is based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 1994. Net assets available for benefits were valued as of the same date. ERS does not make separate measurements of assets and pension benefit obligation for individual employers.

Funding Policy The ERS funding policy provides for periodic employer contributions at actuarially determined rates that, expressed as percentages ofannual payroll, are sufficient to accumulate sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. Level percentage of payroll employer contribution rates are determined using the entry age funding method. ERS also uses the level percentage of payroll method to amortize the unfunded liability within approximately 20 years following the valuation date.

Total contributions from all employers to ERS for the year ended June 30, 1995, were $256,624,679.00. The Institute's contribution for the year ended June 30, 1995, of $192,341.16 was actuarially determined and represented 0.075% of total contributions made by all participating employers.

Significant actuarial assumptions used to compute contributions are the same as those used to compute the standardized measure of pension obligation.

SECTION II FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS

MACON TECHNICAL INSTITUTE
SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30 1995

STATUS OF PRIOR YEAR FINDINGS AND IMPROPER OR QUESTIONED COSTS

The status ofthe finding disclosed in the review report for the year ended June 30, 1994, is indicated below:

Audit Control Number

Status ofFinding

835-94-01

Corrective Action Implemented

CURRENT YEAR

ELIGIBILITY Failure to Sign Statement ofEducational Purpose Federal Financial Assistance Pell Grant Program (CFDA 84.063) Audit Control Number 835-95-01

Federal regulations (34 CFR 668.32) require that students sign a Statement ofEducational Purpose to be eligible for Title IV program funds. For the year under review, an examination of twenty-five student files disclosed that two files did not contain a signed Statement of Educational Purpose. This noncompliance occurred because of management's failure to adequately monitor the student files.

Procedures should be implemented by the Institute to ensure that student files contain a signed Statement of Educational Purpose as required by Federal regulations.
