Management s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

6 Board of Directors Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of as of December 31, 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Disclaimer on Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that information on future major repairs and replacements on page 14 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

10 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2017 NOTE A - GENERAL (Association) is a nonstock Virginia corporation formed pursuant to the Virginia Nonstock Corporation Act. The Association is responsible for the management and operation of a time-share estate program located in Williamsburg, Virginia, consisting of 196 units (10,192 unit-weeks of which 392 unit-weeks are reserved for maintenance) and for the maintenance, repair, and furnishing of the units. NOTE B SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Accounting The accounting records of the Association are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The accrual basis of accounting recognizes revenue when earned and expenses when incurred. Funds The Association utilizes fund accounting, which requires revenues and expenditures for the operating and reserve funds to be classified separately for accounting and reporting purposes. The Operating Fund reflects the operating assessments paid by owners to meet the normal recurring costs of operations. Expenditures of this fund are limited to those connected with the day-to-day operations. The Reserve Fund is composed of all capital assessments paid by owners to fund future replacements, major repairs and purchases of additional commonly owned assets. Interest earned on the Reserve Fund is retained in the fund. The Reserve Fund disbursements may be made only for their designated purposes. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Member Assessments The Association assesses an annual maintenance fee based on the annual budget as determined by the Board of Directors. Each Association member is a unit-week owner and a proportionate amount of the maintenance fees is assessed for each unit-week. -7-

11 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2017 NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED Member Assessments continued For 2017, the annual assessments were as follows: Replacemen Operating t Fund Fund Total Maintenance fee - Saturday weeks $ 613 $ 256 $ 869 Maintenance fee - Sunday weeks $ 650 $ 271 $ 921 The Association retains all excess operating funds, if any, at the end of the operating year, for use in future operating years. Property and Equipment Real property and common areas acquired from the Developer and related improvements to such property, are not recorded in the Association s financial statements because these properties are owned by the individual unit week owners in common and not by the Association. That is, each unit week owner is considered to own, in fee simple, an undivided interest in the common elements of the Association s real and personal property. These assets are deemed to not be severable. Additions to these assets are accounted for as major repairs and replacements by the Reserve Fund. In accordance with the prevailing industry standards and practices, personal property acquired by the Association has not been capitalized. Title to all common real property is held by the Developer, which markets the program throughout the United States along with similar programs it manages elsewhere in the United States and maintains control of the Association until certain requirements are met. Income Taxes The Association may elect on an annual basis to be taxed as a non-profit "homeowner s association. The effect of the election is to tax the Association only on its "non-exempt function" income, reduced by a specific $100 deduction at a flat 32% rate. If such election is not made, the Association's net income is subject to tax at statutory corporate rates. The Association has elected to be taxed as a non-profit homeowner s association resulting in $2,576 federal and $514 state income taxes as of December 31, The Association's tax filings are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. The Association's income tax returns for 2014 through 2017 remain open to examination by the governing agencies. The Association believes that its estimates used for income tax reporting are appropriate based on current facts and circumstances. -8-

Compensated Absences The Association provides vacation benefits to regular full-time employees based on years of service. Unused vacation as of December 31, 2017, is forfeited. Date of Management s Review Subsequent events have been evaluated through May 1, 2018, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. NOTE C CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Cash The Association maintains its cash balances at several insured financial institutions which at times, may exceed federally- insured limits. The Association has not experienced any losses on such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk on cash. Accounts with the financial services company consisted of interest-bearing cash management accounts, insured savings accounts, money funds and certificates of deposit. Certificates of deposit and insured savings accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000 at each issuing bank. The accounts with the financial services company are protected by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ( SIPC ) up to $500,000. Cash is insured up to $250,000 under SIPC. -9-
