NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REPORTING ENTITY Valdosta Technical College is one of twenty-seven (27) State supported member colleges of postsecondary education in Georgia which comprise the Technical College System of Georgia, an organizational unit of the State of Georgia. The accompanying financial statements reflect the operations of Valdosta Technical College as a separate reporting entity.
The Technical College's Local Board of Directors is composed of eleven (11) members serving staggered three-year terms who are appointed by the State Board of the Department of Technical and Adult Education. Appropriation of State funds is made to the Technical College System of Georgia by the General Assembly of Georgia. The System Office of the Technical College System of Georgia determines the amount of State appropriations to be received by Valdosta Technical College. The Technical College does not have authority to retain unexpended State appropriations (surplus) for any given fiscal year. Accordingly, Valdosta Technical College is considered an organizational unit of the Technical College System of Georgia 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 (GASB) Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Re~ortinRStandards.
N ET ASSETS
The Technical College's net assets are classified as follows:
Invested in capital asseb, net of related debt: This amount represents the Technical College's total investment in capital assets, net of outstanding debt obligations related to those capital assets. To the extent debt has been incurred but not yet expended for capital assets, such amounts are not included as a component of invested in capital assets, net of related debt.
Restrctw'netassets- expendable: Restricted expendable net assets include resources in which the Technical College is legally or contractually obligated to spend resources in accordance with restrictions imposed by external third parties, except for unexpended grant funds of $516.69 due to grantor agencies.
Unrestrided net assets: Unrestricted net assets represent available resources derived from student tuition and fees, state appropriations, and sales and services of educational departments. These resources will be used for transactions relating to the educational and general operations of the Technical College, and may be used at the discretion of the governing board to meet subsequent fiscal year expenses for those purposes, except for unexpended state appropriations (surplus). Unexpended state appropriations must be refunded to the Technical College System of Georgia for remittance to the Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services. At June 30, 2009, there was no surplus balance to be refunded.
When an expense is incurred that can be paid using either restricted or unrestricted resources, the Technical College's policy is to first apply the expense towards unrestricted resources, and then towards restricted resources.

NOTE 2: DEPOSITS
DEPOSITS The custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the Technical College's deposits may not be recovered. Funds belonging to the State of Georgia (and thus the Technical College) cannot be placed in a depository paying interest longer than ten days without the depository providing a surety bond to the State. In lieu of a surety bond, the depository may pledge as collateral any one or more of the following securities as enumerated in the Official Code of Georgia Annotated Section 50-17-59:
1. Bonds, bills, certificates of indebtedness, notes, or other direct obligations of the United States or of the State of Georgia.
2. Bonds, bills, certificates of indebtedness, notes, or other obligations of the counties or municipalities of the State of Georgia.
3. Bonds of any public authority created by the laws of the State of Georgia, providing that the statute that created the authority authorized the use of the bonds for this purpose.
4. Industrial revenue bonds and bonds of development authorities created by the laws of the State of Georgia.
5. Bonds, bills, certificates of indebtedness, notes, or other obligations of a subsidiary corporation of the United States government, which are fully guaranteed by the United States government both as to principal and interest, or debt obligations issued by the Federal Land Bank, the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank, the Central Bank for Cooperatives, the Farm Credit Banks, the Federal Home Loan MortgageAssociation, and the Federal National MortgageAssociation.
6. Guarantee or insurance of accounts provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
As authorized in the Official Code of Georgia Annotated Section 50-17-53, the State Depository Board has adopted policies, which allows agencies of the State of Georgia (and thus Valdosta Technical College),the option of exempting demand deposits from the collateral requirements.
At June 30, 2010, the carrying value of deposits was $2,672,878.50 and the bank balance was $2,958,636.97. Of the Technical College's deposits, $2,563,534.45 were uninsured. Of these uninsured deposits, $2,563,534.45 were collateralized with securities held by the financial institution's trust department or agency, but not in the Technical College's name.

NOTE 9: RETIREMENT PLANS
EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA
Plan Descr@tion Valdosta Technical College participates in the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia (ERS), a single-employer 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 ERS Board of Trustees created the Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan (SRBP) effective January 1,1998. The SRBP was established as a qualified governmental excess benefit plan in accordance with Section 415 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) as a portion of ERS. The purpose of SRBP is to provide retirement benefits to employees covered by ERS whose benefits are otherwise limited by IRC 415.
The benefit structure of ERS is established by the Board of Trustees under statutory guidelines. Unless the employee elects otherwise, an employee who currently maintains membership with ERS based upon State employment that started prior to July 1,1982, is an "old plan" member subject to the plan provisions in effect prior to July 1,1982. Members hired on or after July 1,1982 but prior to January 1, 2009 are "new plan" members subject to the modified plan provisions. Effective January 1,2009, newly hired State employees, as well as rehired State employees who did not maintain eligibility for the "old" or "new" plan, are members of the Georgia State Employees' Pension and Savings Plan (GSEPS). ERS members hired prior to January 1,2009 also have the option to change their membership to the GSEPS plan.
Under the old plan, new plan, and GSEPS, a member may retire and receive normal retirement benefits after completion of 1 0 years of creditable service and attainment of age 60 or 3 0 years of creditable service regardless of age. Additionally, there are some provisions allowing for early retirement after 25 years of creditable service for members under age 60.
Retirement benefits paid to members are based upon a formula adopted by the Board of Trustees for such purpose. The formula considers the monthly average of the member's highest 2 4 consecutive calendar months of salary, the number of years of creditable service, and the member's age at retirement. Post-retirement cost-of-living adjustments may be made to members' benefits provided the members were hired prior to July 1,2010. 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.
Funding Policy As established by State statute, all full-time employees of the State of Georgia and its political subdivisions, who are not members of other state retirement systems, are eligible to participate in the ERS. Both employer and employee contributions are established by State statute. The Technical College's payroll for the year ended June30, 2010, for employees covered by ERS was $786,333.07. The Technical College'stotal payroll for all employees was $9,002,268.25.
Member contribution rates are set by law. Member contributions under the old plan are 4% of annual compensation up to $4,200 plus 6%of annual compensation in excess of $4,200. Under the old plan, the Technical College pays member contributions in excess of 1.25% of annual compensation. Under the old plan, these Technical College contributions are included in the

EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM OF GEORGIA

Funding Policy members' accounts for refund purposes and are used in the computation of the members' earnable compensation for the purpose of computing retirement benefits. Member contributions under the new plan and GSEPS are 1.25% of annual compensation. The Technical College is required to contribute at a specified percentage of active member payroll established by the Board of Trustees determined annually in accordance with actuarial valuation and minimum funding standards as provided by law. These Technical College contributions are not at any time refundable to the member or his/her beneficiary.

Employer contributions for the current fiscal year and the preceding two fiscal years are as follows:

Actuarial and TrendInformation Actuarial and historical trend information is presented in the ERS June 30, 2010, financial report, which may be obtained through ERS.
GEORGIA DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN
Plan Description Valdosta Technical College participates in the Georgia Defined Contribution Plan (GDCP) which is a single-employer defined contribution plan established by the General Assembly of Georgia for the purpose of providing retirement coverage for State employees who are temporary, seasonal, and part-time and are not members of a public retirement or pension system. GDCP is administered by the Board of Trustees of the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia.
Benefits A member may retire and elect to receive periodic payments after attainment of age 65. The payment will be based upon mortality tables and interest assumptions to be adopted by the Board of Trustees. If a member has less than $3,500.00 credited to his/her account, the Board of Trustees has the option of requiring a lump sum distribution to the member in lieu of making periodic payments. Upon the death of a member, a lump sum distribution equaling the amount credited to his/her account will be paid to the member's designated beneficiary. Benefit provisions are established by State statute.
The Employees' Retirement System of Georgia issues a financial report each fiscal year which may be obtained through ERS.

NOTE 9: RETIREMENT PLANS
GEORGIA DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN
Contributionsand Vesting Member contributions are seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of gross salary. There are no employer contributions. Contribution rates are established by State statute. Earnings are credited to each member's account in a manner established by the Board of Trustees. Upon termination of employment, the amount of the member's account is refundable upon request by the member. The Technical College's payroll for the year ended June 30, 2010, for employees covered by GDCP was $1,289,542.93. The Technical College's total payroll for all employees was $9,002,268.25.
Total contributions made by employees during fiscal year 2010 amounted to $96,639.57 which represents 7.5% of covered payroll. These contributions met the requirements of the plan.
NOTE 10: POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
The Technical College participates in the following State of Georgia post-employment benefit plans: the Georgia State Employees Post-employment Health Benefit Fund (administered by the Department of Community Health) and the State Employees' Assurance Department - OPEB (administered by the ERS System). Separate financial reports that include the applicable financial statements and required supplementary information for these plans are publicly available and may be obtained from the respective system offices.
Retiree health benefits were previously funded through the Georgia Retiree Health Benefit Fund (GRHBF). In 2009, the General Assembly revisited the GRHBF and enacted legislation that, effective August 31, 2009, separated the GRHBF into two new funds: the Georgia School Personnel Postemployment Health Benefit Fund and the Georgia State Employees Post-employment Health Benefit Fund. The purpose of this change was to assure employers responsible for planning and funding future retiree health costs that their contributions will be dedicated to their respective retiree populations. Funds in the GRHBF were transferred to the Georgia State Employees Post-employment Health Benefit Fund or the Georgia School Personnel Post-employment Health Benefit Fund as described in the plan financial statements. The statute that created the GRHBF is repealed effective September 1,2010.
GEORGIA STATE EMPLOYEES POST-EMPLOYMENT HEALTH BENEFIT FUND The Georgia State Employees Post-employment Health Benefit Fund (State OPEB Fund) is a costsharing multiple-employer defined benefit post-employment healthcare plan that covers eligible former employees of State organizations and other entities authorized by law to contract with the Department of Community Health for inclusion in the plan. The State OPEB Fund provides health insurance benefits to eligible former employees and their qualified beneficiaries through the health insurance plan for State employees. The Official Code of Georgia Annotated (OCGA) assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions of the group health plans, including benefits for retirees, to the Board of Community Health (Board).
The contribution requirements of plan members and participating employers are established by the Board in accordance with the current Appropriations Act and may be amended by the Board. Contributions of plan members or beneficiaries receiving benefits vary based on plan election, dependent coverage, and Medicare eligibility and election. On average, plan members pay approximately 25 percent of the cost of the health insurance coverage.

NOTE 10: POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

GEORGIA STATE EMPLOYEES POST-EMPLOYMENT HEALTH BENEFIT FUND Participating employers are statutorily required to contribute in accordance with the employer contribution rates established by the Board. The contribution rates are established to fund all benefits due under the health insurance plans for both active and retired employees based on projected "pay-as-you-go" financing requirements. Contributions are not based on the actuarially calculated annual required contribution (ARC) which represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years.
The combined active and retiree contribution rates established by the Board for employers participating in the State OPEB Fund were as follows for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010:

July 2 0 0 9 August 2 0 0 9 - October 2 0 0 9 November 2 0 0 9 -June 2 0 1 0

22.165% of covered payroll for August coverage 16.581% of covered payroll for September - November coverage 22.165% of covered payroll for December- July coverage

No additional contribution was required by the Board for fiscal year 2010 nor contributed to the State OPEB Fund to prefund retiree benefits. Such additional contribution amounts are determined annually by the Board in accordance with the State plan for other post-employment benefits and are subject to appropriation.
The following table summarizes the Technical College combined active and retiree contributions to the health insurance plans for the years ending June 30,2010, June 30,2009 and June 30,2008:

STATE EMPLOYEES' ASSURANCE DEPARTMENT - OPEB State Employees' Assurance Department - OPEB (SEAD-OPEB) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit post-employment plan that was created in fiscal year 2007 by the Georgia General Assembly to provide term life insurance to retired and vested inactive members of Employees', Judicial (JRS), and Legislative (LRS) Retirement Systems, amended t o exclude members of JRS and LRS hired on or after July 1,2009. Pursuant to Title 47 of the OCGA, the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions of the plan is assigned to the Boards of Trustees of the Employees' and Judicial Retirement Systems.
Contributions by plan members are established by the Boards of Trustees, up to the maximum allowed by statute (not to exceed 0.5% of earnable compensation). The Boards of Trustees of the Employees' and Judicial Retirement Systems establish employer contribution rates, such rates which, when added to members' contributions, shall not exceed 1% of earnable compensation. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, contributions of ERS "old plan" members were 0.45% of earnable compensation, 0.22% of which was paid by the employer. Contributions of ERS "new plan" members and of members of the Judicial and Legislative Retirement Systems were 0.23% of earnable compensation. There were no employer annual required contributions (ARC) for the fiscal years ended June 30,2010, June 30,2009 and June 30,2008.
