Management s Discussion and Analysis This section of the City of Princeton s annual financial report presents our discussion and analysis of the City s financial performance during the fiscal years that ended and 2014. Throughout this report, information regarding Perry Memorial Hospital will be referred to as the hospital or the Component Unit Business-Type Activity. It is not the intention of the report to highlight the financial condition of Perry Memorial Hospital. An independent audit of the hospital is conducted outside the audit for the City of Princeton; however, Perry Memorial Hospital is a City owned hospital and therefore, the City must include financial information regarding such. Financial Highlights The City of Princeton has implemented the GASB 34 reporting model, which among other changes requires amounts for depreciation of capital assets within governmental activities. Shown within the Statement of Net Position, year-end net position balances for fiscal year 2015 are $68,219,617. This is comprised of $31,217,048 for governmental activities plus $37,002,569 for business-type activities. Total costs of the City s governmental activities were $11,577,631. In the City s business-type operating activities, expenses were $14,827,641. Total revenues for the City s governmental and business-type activities were $25,690,480. Overview of the Financial Statements This annual report consists of a series of financial statements. The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities provide information about the activities of the City as a whole and present a long-term view of the City s finances. For governmental activities, these statements tell how these services were financed in the short term as well as what remains for future spending. Fund financial statements also report the City s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements by providing information about the City s most significant funds. The remaining statements provide financial information about activities for which the City acts solely as a trustee or agent for the benefit of those outside of the government. -4-

Management s Discussion and Analysis Continued Overview of the Financial Statements Continued Reporting the City as a Whole The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities One of the most important questions asked about the City s finances is Is the City as a whole better off or worse off as a result of the year s activities? The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities report information about the City as a whole and about its activities in a way that helps answer this question. These statements include all assets and liabilities using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the accounting used by most private-sector companies. All of the current year s revenues and expenses are taken into account regardless of when cash is received or paid. These two statements report the City s net position and changes in them. Over time, increases or decreases in the City s net position is one indicator of whether its financial position is improving or deteriorating. You will need to consider other non-financial factors, however, such as changes in the City s property tax base and the condition of the City s roads, to assess the overall position of the City. Reporting the City s Most Significant Funds Fund Financial Statements Some funds are required to be established by State law and bond covenants. However, the City establishes many funds to control and manage money for particular purposes or to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants and other money. The City s three types of funds (governmental, business-type and fiduciary) use different accounting approaches: Governmental Funds Most of the City s basic services are included in governmental funds, which focus on (1) how cash and other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash flows into and out of these funds and (2) the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. Consequently, the governmental funds statements provide a detailed shortterm view that helps you determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City s programs. We describe the relationship (or differences) between governmental activities and governmental funds at the bottom of the governmental funds statement. Business-Type Activities The City charges fees to customers to help it cover all or most of certain services it provides. The City s water, sewer and electric systems are reported here. -5-

Management s Discussion and Analysis Continued Overview of the Financial Statements Continued Reporting the City s Most Significant Funds Fund Financial Statements Continued Fiduciary Funds The City has fiduciary responsibilities for other assets that can be used only for the trust beneficiaries. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. All of the City s fiduciary activities are reported in a separate Statement of Fiduciary Net Position and a Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position.

These assets represent equipment, buildings and structures and infrastructure. Historically, only capital assets in the business-type funds were capitalized. As part of GASB 34, the City established a threshold for capitalization in the amount of $50,000, based on a per item basis. Infrastructure is valued at the composite cost. Infrastructure that has been capitalized to comply with GASB 34 includes, but is not limited to, City right-of-way property, streets, alleys, sidewalks and storm sewer. Depreciation is calculated based on the straight-line method. This year s major expenditures were electric, sewer and water department upgrades along with police equipment. -7-

Independent Auditors Report The Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Princeton, Illinois We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Princeton, Illinois ( City ), as of and for the year ended, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. 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 opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Julia Rackley Perry Memorial Hospital Fund, which represents 34.73%, 42.37%, and 67.33% respectively, of the assets, net position, and revenues of the business-type activities of the City. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the City of Princeton, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. 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 opinions.

Unmodified Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of April 30, 2015, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management s discussion and analysis, the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund Schedule of Funding Progress, and budgetary comparison information on pages 59 and 60 through 64 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental 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. Other Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Princeton, Illinois s basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated October 27, 2015, on our consideration of the City of Princeton s internal control over financial reporting and on our test of its compliance with certain provision of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City of Princeton s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

The assets and liabilities of the internal service fund are included in government activities in the statement of net position. 361,955 Certain liabilities, including bonds payable, accrued interest and bond premiums are not due and payable in the current period and therefore are not reported in the funds: Bond premium $ (86,274) Accrued interest payable (109,993) Bonds and notes payable (8,882,976) (9,079,243) Net position of governmental activities $ 31,217,018 The accompanying notes are an integral part of this statement. -16-

Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance of Governmental Funds to the Governmental Activities in the Statement of Activities For the Year Ended Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different because: Net change in fund balance total governmental funds $ (1,402,848) Capital outlays are reported as expenditures in this fund financial statement because they use current financial resources, but they are presented as assets in the statement of activities and depreciated over their estimated economic lives; depreciation ($1,578,477) for the year is more than capital outlays ($265,908) reported in the governmental funds. (1,312,569) In the governmental funds, repayment of notes receivable are reported as revenues and disbursements of note receivable proceeds are reported as expenditures as these amounts increase or decrease financial resources. However, these amounts are applied towards the balance of the receivables in the statement of net position. (144,502) Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds. (7,576) Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities to individual funds. The net revenue (expense) of the internal service fund is reported with governmental activities. (113,386) The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuances costs and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statements of activities. The following is the detail of the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt: Proceeds from long-term debt $ (189,109) Repayment of long-term debt 1,087,556 Amortization of bond premium 6,637 905,084 Change in net position of governmental activities $ (2,075,797) The accompanying notes are an integral part of this statement. -19-

Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Reporting Entity For financial reporting purposes, the City of Princeton, Illinois (the primary government), includes all funds, agencies, boards, commissions and authorities that are controlled by or dependent upon the City. This was determined on the basis of taxing authority, authority to appoint members to the governing board of the component unit, budget adoption, outstanding debt secured by revenues or general obligation of the City, obligation of the City to finance any deficits that may occur or receipt of significant subsidies from the City. The component units discussed below are included in the City s reporting entity because of the significance of their operational and functional relationships with the City. Blended Component Units Based on the foregoing criteria, the Library Board, the Police Pension Board and the Firemen s Pension Board are included in the financial statements as blended component units. The Princeton City Council is responsible for the adoption of tax levies for these funds and has delegated the adoption of the annual operating budgets to the respective boards of these funds. Discretely Presented Component Unit The component unit column in the combined financial statements include the financial data of the City-owned hospital. These amounts are reported separately to emphasize that the hospital is legally a separate organization for which the elected officials of the city are financially accountable. The Hospital obtained the majority interest of Partners Health System, effective May, 2002. Partners Health System is a not-for-profit corporation whose mission is to create an integrated healthcare delivery system. Prior to April 30, 2002 the Hospital accounted for its investment in Partners Health System on the equity method and the balance had been written down to zero. The Hospital collectively refers to the Partners Heath System and the Hospital as the Organization in its audit report. For the purpose of this combined financial report, we will refer to the Organization as the Hospital. Government-Wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of changes in net position) report information on all of the activities of the primary government. For the most part, the effect of inter-fund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which are normally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support. -26-

Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Continued: Government-Wide Financial Statements Continued The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment, and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to claims and judgments are recorded only when payment is due. Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the government. -27-

Notes to Financial Statements Continued Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Continued: Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation Continued The funds are grouped into two fund types and five generic funds as described below: Governmental Fund Types These are the funds through which most governmental functions typically are financed. The funds included in this category are as follows: General Fund This fund is established to account for resources devoted to financing the general services that the City performs for its citizens. General tax revenues and other sources of revenue used to finance the fundamental operations of the City are included in this fund. The fund is charged with all costs of operating the government for which a separate fund has not been established. Special Revenue Funds These funds are established to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources other than special assessments, expendable trusts, or major capital projects that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. Debt Service Funds These funds are established for the purpose of accumulating resources for the payment of interest and principal on long-term general obligation debt other than that payable from Enterprise Funds. Capital Projects Fund This fund is established to account for major capital expenditures not financed by Enterprise Funds. Permanent Fund This fund accounts for resources that are legally restricted to the extent that only earnings, and not principal, may be used for purposes that benefit the government or its citizenry. Internal Service Fund This fund is used to account for the City s self-insured health plan. The purpose of the fund is to pay medical claims of the City s employees and certain retirees and their covered dependents, and to minimize the total cost of the annual insurance to the City. Medical claims exceeding $150,000 per covered individual with aggregate limit are covered through a private insurance carrier. Fiduciary Funds These funds are used to account for assets held on behalf of outside parties, including other governments, or on behalf of other funds within the City. When these assets are held under the terms of a formal trust agreement, pension funds are used. -28-

Notes to Financial Statements Continued Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Continued: Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation Continued Proprietary Fund Types These funds account for operations that are organized to be self-supporting through user charges. The funds included in this category are the Enterprise Funds. Enterprise Funds These funds are established to account for operations that are financed and conducted in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent is that the costs of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges. Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following subsequent private-sector guidance for their business-type activities and Enterprise Funds, subject to this same limitation. The City has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance. The effect of inter-fund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services in connection with a proprietary fund s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the Water Fund, Sewer Fund, and Electric Fund are charges to customers for sales and services. The Water Fund also recognizes as operating revenue the portion of tap fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. Operating expenses for Enterprise Funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. -29-
