Friesen Professional Corporation INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the Board of Northern Gateway Regional Division #1 O We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Northern Gateway Regional Division #1 O, which comprise the statement of financial position as at August 31, 2016 and the statements of revenues and expenditures, changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation 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 Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and 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 entitys 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 erf ectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of 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. 1 (continues) SlrHI, Weatlock, AB T7P 2K4 Telephone: {780} t Edm.

18 NORTHERN GATEWAY REGIONAL DIVISION #10 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ENDING AUGUST 31, AUTHORITY AND PURPOSE The School Jurisdiction delivers education programs under the authority of the School Act, Revised Statutes of Alberta 2000, Chapter S3. The jurisdiction receives funding for instruction and support under Education Grants Regulation (AR 120/2008). The regulation allows for the setting of conditions and use of grant monies. The School Jurisdiction is limited on certain funding allocations and administration expenses. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the CICA Canadian public sector accounting standards (PSAS). The financial statements have, in management s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the accounting policies summarized below: a) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. These shortterm investments have a maturity of three months or less at acquisition and are held for the purpose of meeting shortterm cash commitments rather than for investing. b) Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are shown net of allowance for doubtful accounts. c) Inventories The Regional Division expenses all items under 5,000 as current expenses and therefore, does not track inventories of supplies in the financial statements. d) Tangible capital assets The following criteria apply: Tangible capital assets acquired or constructed are recorded at cost which includes amounts that are directly related to the acquisition, design, construction, development, improvement or betterment of the asset. Cost also includes overhead directly attributable to construction as well as interest costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the asset. Donated tangible capital assets are recorded at their fair market value at the date of donation, except in circumstances where fair value cannot be reasonably determined, when they are then recognized at nominal value. Transfers of tangible capital assets from related parties are recorded at original cost less accumulated amortization. Workinprogress is recorded as a transfer to the applicable asset class at substantial completion. Northern Gateway Regional Div. #10 Audited Financial Statements for the Year Ended Aug. 31,

19 Buildings include site and leasehold improvements as well as assets under capital lease. Sites and buildings are written down to residual value when conditions indicate they no longer contribute to the ability of the School District to provide services or when the value of future economic benefits associated with the sites and buildings are less than their net book value. For supported assets, the writedowns are accounted for as reductions to Expended Deferred Capital Revenue. Buildings that are demolished or destroyed are writtenoff. Tangible capital assets with costs in excess of 5,000 are capitalized. Leases that, from the point of view of the lessee, transfer substantially all the benefits and risks incident to ownership of the property to the Board are considered capital leases. These are accounted for as an asset and an obligation. The Board currently has no capital leases. Tangible capital assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives on a straightline basis, at the following rates: Buildings 2% to 4% Vehicles & Buses 10% to 20% Computer Hardware & Software 20% to 25% Other Equipment & Furnishings 10% to 20% e) Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue includes contributions received for operations which have stipulations that meet the definition of a liability per Public Sector Accounting Standard (PSAS) PS These contributions are recognized by the School District once it has met all eligibility criteria to receive the contributions. When stipulations are met, deferred revenue is recognized as revenue in the fiscal year in a manner consistent with the circumstances and evidence used to support the initial recognition of the contributions received as a liability. Deferred revenue also included contributions for capital expenditures, unexpended and expended: Unexpended Deferred Capital Revenue Unexpended Deferred Capital Revenue represent externally restricted supported capital funds provided for a specific capital purpose received or receivable by the jurisdiction, but the related expenditure has not been made at yearend. Expended Deferred Capital Revenue Expended Deferred Capital Revenue represent externally restricted supported capital funds that have been expended but have yet to be amortized over the useful life of the related capital asset. Amortization over the useful life of the related capital asset is due to certain stipulations related to the contributions that require that the school jurisdiction to use the asset in a prescribed manner over the life of the associated asset.

20 f) Operating and Capital Reserves Certain amounts are internally or externally restricted for future operating or capital purposes. Transfers to and from reserves are recorded when approved by the Board of Trustees. Capital reserves are restricted to capital purposes and may only be used for operating purposes with approval by the Minister of Education. Reserves are disclosed in the Schedule of Changes in Accumulated Surplus. g) Revenue Recognition Revenues are recorded on an accrual basis. Instruction and support allocations are recognized in the year to which they relate. Fees for services related to courses and programs are recognized as revenue when such courses and programs are delivered. Volunteers contribute a considerable number of hours per year to schools to ensure that certain programs are delivered, such as kindergarten, lunch services and the raising of school generated funds. Contributed services are not recognized in the financial statements. Eligibility criteria are criteria that the School District has to meet in order to receive certain contributions. Stipulations describe what the School District must perform in order to keep the contributions. Contributions without eligibility criteria or stipulations are recognized as revenue when the contributions are authorized by the transferring government or entity. Contributions with eligibility criteria but without stipulations are recognized as revenue when the contributions are authorized by the transferring government or entity and all eligibility criteria have been met. Contributions with stipulations are recognized as revenue in the period the stipulations are met, except when and to the extent that the contributions give rise to an obligation that meets the definition of a liability in accordance with Section PS Such liabilities are recorded as deferred revenue. The following items fall under this category: Noncapital contributions for specific purposes are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue in the year the stipulated related expenses are incurred; Unexpended Deferred Capital Revenue; or Expended Deferred Capital Revenue. h) Expenses Expenses are reported on an accrual basis. The cost of all goods consumed and services received during the year is expensed. Allocation of Costs Actual salaries of personnel assigned to two or more programs are allocated based on the time spent in each program. Employee benefits and allowances are allocated to the same programs, and in the same proportions, as the individual s salary. Supplies and services are allocated based on actual program identification. Northern Gateway Regional Div. #10 Audited Financial Statements for the Year Ended Aug. 31,

21 i) Pensions Pension costs included in these statements comprise the cost of employer contributions for current service of employees during the year. The current and past service costs of the Alberta Teachers Retirement Fund are met by contributions by active members and the Government of Alberta. Under the terms of the Teachers Pension Plan Act, the Northern Gateway Regional Division #10 does not make pension contributions for certificated staff. The Government portion of the current service contribution to the Alberta Teachers Retirement Fund on behalf of the jurisdiction is included in both revenues and expenses. For the school year ended August 31, 2016, the amount contributed by the Government was 3,224,702 (2015 3,288,801). The school board participates in a multiemployer pension plan, the Local Authorities Pension Plan, and does not report on any unfunded liabilities. The expense for this pension plan is equivalent to the annual contributions of 1,576,361 for the year ended August 31, 2016 (2015 1,588,802). At December 31, 2015, the Local Authorities Pension Plan reported an actuarial deficiency of 923,416,000 (2015 deficiency of 2,454,636). The Division provides a Supplement Integrated Pension Plan (SIPP) for certain executive employees of the Division, based on approved terms and conditions of the Plan. The Division s net expense for the year amounts to 14,328 ( ,728). The Division provides a Supplement Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) for certain executive employees of the Division, based on approved terms and conditions of the Plan. The Division s net expense for the year amounts to 39,966 ( ,143). j) Program Reporting The Division s operations have been segmented as follows: ECSGrade 12 Instruction: The provision of Early Childhood Services education and grades 1 12 instructional services that fall under the basic public education mandate. Plant Operations and Maintenance: The operation and maintenance of all school buildings and maintenance shop facilities. Transportation: The provision of regular and special education bus services (to and from school), whether contracted or board operated, including transportation facilities. Board & System Administration: The provision of board governance and systembased / central office administration. External Services: All projects, activities, and services offered outside the public education mandate for ECS children and students in grades 112. Services offered beyond the mandate for public education are to be selfsupporting, and Alberta Education funding may not be utilized to support these programs. The allocation of revenues and expenses are reported by program, source, and object on the Schedule of Program Operations. Respective instruction expenses include the cost of certificated teachers, noncertificated teaching assistants as well as a proportionate share of supplies & services, school administration & instruction support, and System Instructional Support.

22 k) Trusts Under Administration Trusts under administration have been excluded from the financial reporting of the Division. Trust balances can be found in Note 14. l) Financial Instruments A contract establishing a financial instrument creates, at its inception, rights and obligations to receive or deliver economic benefits. The financial assets and financial liabilities portray these rights and obligations in the financial statements. The School District recognizes a financial instrument when it becomes a party to a financial instrument contract. Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, portfolio investments, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debt and other liabilities. Unless otherwise noted, it is management s opinion that the School District is not exposed to significant credit and liquidity risks, or market risk, which includes currency, interest rate and other price risks. Portfolio investments in equity instruments quoted in an active market and derivatives are recorded at fair value. All other financial assets and liabilities are recorded at cost or amortized cost and the associated transaction costs are added to the carrying value of items in the cost or amortized cost upon initial recognition. The gain or loss arising from derecognition of a financial instrument is recognized in the Statement of Operations. Impairment losses such as writedowns or writeoffs are reported in the Statement of Operations. m) Measurement Uncertainty The precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent on future events. As a result, the preparation of financial statements for a period involves the use of estimates and approximations, which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the potential impairment of assets, rates for amortization and estimated employee future benefits.
