Stelly, CPA INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT 2005 1 The Honorable Mayor, and Members of the Board of Aldermen and Alderwomen Grand Coteau, Louisiana Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Town of Grand Coteau, Louisiana, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Town'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 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 misstatements 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 principles 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. P. O.

The Honorable Mayor. and Members of the Board of Aldermen and Alderwomen Page 2 Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Town of Grand Coteau, Louisiana, as of June 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted the management's discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements are not affected by this missing information. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the budgetary comparison information on pages 33 through 35 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Government 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 Town of Grand Coteau, Louisiana's basic financial statements. The other supplementary information on pages 36 through 47 and pages 53 through 58 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The other supplementary information on pages 36 through 47 and pages 53 through 56 and page 58 is 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 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 other supplementary information, except for the schedule of insurance in force, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The schedule of insurance in force on page 57 has 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.

The Honorable Mayor, and Members of the Board of Aldermen and Aiderwomen Page 3 Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditina Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 9, 2014, on our consideration of the Town of Grand Coteau's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions 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 Town of Grand Coteau's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

16 TOWN OF GRAND CQTEAU. LOUISIANA NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying financial statements of the Town of Grand Coteau, Louisiana have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applied to governmental units, hereinafter referred to as GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles). The accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles is GASB (the Governmental Accounting Standards Board), The following is a summary of certain significant accounting policies and practices of the Town of Grand Coteau: A. FINANCIAL REPORTING ENTITY Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 14 established criteria for determining which component units should be considered part of the Town of Grand Coteau for financial reporting purposes. The basic criterion for including a potential component unit within the reporting entity is financial accountability. The GASB has set forth criteria to be considered in determining financial accountability. This criteria includes: 1. Appointing a voting majority of an organization's governing body, and a. The ability of the Town to impose its will on that organization and/or b. The potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to or impose specific financial burdens on the Town. 2. Organizations for which the Town does not appoint a voting majority but are fiscally dependent on the Town. 3. Organizations for which the reporting entity financial statements would be misleading if data of the organization is not included because of the nature or significance of the relationship. The Town of Grand Coteau is a primary government and has no component units. The accompanying financial statements present information only on the funds maintained by the Town and do not present information on any other governmental unit. B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS fgwfs) The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities display information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the Town of Grand Coteau, the primary government, as a whole. They include all funds of the reporting entity. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are 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. Fiduciary funds are not included in the GWFS. Fiduciary funds are reported only in the Statement of Fiduciary Net Position at the fund financial statement level. The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Program revenues include (a) fees, fines, and charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs, and (b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes are presented as general revenues.

17 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION - Continued FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accounts of the Town are organized and operated on the basis of funds. A fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a separate set of self-balancing accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with financerelated legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds is maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. The various funds of the Town are classified into two categories: governmental and proprietary. The emphasis on fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. A fund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the Town or meets the following criteria: a. Total assets, liabilities, revenues or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total for all funds of the category or type; and b. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental or enterprise funds are at least 5 percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined. The Town reports the following major governmental funds: Govemmental Fund General Fund. The General Fund is the general operating fund of the Town. It is used to account for all financial resources except those that are required to be accounted for in another fund. The Town reports the following nonmajor governmental funds: Non-Major Governmental Funds Special Revenue Funds Sales Tax Fund. The Sales Tax Fund is used to account for the proceeds of a one percent sales and use tax that is legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. 2010 Sales Tax Fund The 2010 Sales Tax Fund is used to account for the proceeds of a one percent sales and use tax that is legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. The Town reports the following major proprietary funds: Enterprise Funds Gas Fund. The Gas Fund accounts for gas services to residents of the Town of Grand Coteau. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund including, but not limited to, operations, construction, administration, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection. Water Fund. The Water Fund accounts for water services to residents of the Town of Grand Coteau. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund including, but not limited to, operations, construction, administration, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION - Continued FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued Sewer Fund. The Sewer Fund accounts for sewer services to the Town of Grand Coteau. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund including, but not limited to, operations, construction, administration, maintenance, financing and related debt service, and billing and collection. 0. MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" transactions are recorded regardless of the measurement focus applied. MEASUREMENT FOCUS On the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, both governmental and business-type activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus as defined in item b. below. In the fund financial statements, the "current financial resources" measurement focus or the "economic resources" measurement focus is used as appropriate: a. All governmental funds utilize a "current financial resources" measurement focus. Only current financial assets and liabilities are generally included in their balance sheets. Their operating statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendable financial resources at the end of the period. b. The proprietary fund utilizes an "economic resources" measurement focus. The accounting objective of this measurement focus is the determination of operating income, changes in net position (or cost recovery), financial position, and cash flows. All assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) associated with their activities are reported. Proprietary fund equity is classified as net position. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING In the government-wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, both governmental and businesstype activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used. Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchangelike transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures (including capital outlay) generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures are recorded only when payment is due. Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred except that accumulated unpaid vacation and sick pay are not accrued and principal and interest on general long-term debt are recognized when due. Purchases of various operating supplies are regarded as expenditures at the time purchased.

19 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 0. MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued The proprietary fund utilizes the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used. Bad debts are written off when accounts became worthless. Transfers between funds that are not expected to be repaid are accounted for as other financing sources (uses). These transactions are recorded when the transfers occur. Program Revenues Program revenues included in the Statement of Activities are derived directly from the program itself or from parties outside the Town's taxpayers or citizenry, as a whole; program revenues reduce the cost of the function to be financed from the Town's general revenues. Allocation of Indirect Expenses The Town reports all direct expenses by function in the Statement of Activities. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a function. Indirect expenses of other functions are not allocated to those functions, but are reported separately in the Statement of Activities. Depreciation expense is specifically identified by function. CASH AND INVESTMENTS Louisiana statutes authorize the Town to invest in United States bonds, treasury notes or certificates, time certificates of deposit in state and national banks, or any other federally insured investment. At year-end, the carrying amount of the Town's cash and investments was $649,115. The bank balance of cash was $585,704 and of investments was $75,680. Investments are stated at cost or amortized cost, which approximates market. Investments consist of time certificates of deposits. Cash and certificates of deposits are fully secured through the pledge of bank-owned securities or federal deposit insurance. Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, the Town's deposits may not be recovered or will not be able to recover the collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. These deposits are stated at cost, which approximates market. Under state law, these deposits, (or the resulting balances) must be secured by federal deposit insurance or similar federal security or the pledge of securities owned by the fiscal agent bank. The market value of the pledged securities plus the federal deposit insurance must at all times equal the amount on deposit with the fiscal agent bank. These securities are held in the name of the Town or the pledging fiscal agent bank by a holding or custodial bank that is mutually acceptable to both parties. The Town does not have a policy for custodial credit risk. As of June 30, 2014, the Town's total bank balances were secured as follows. Bank Balances $ 661,384 Federal deposit insurance $ 325,680 Pledged securities 335,704 Total FDIC insurance and collateral 661,384

20 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 0. MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued INTERFUND RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds that may result in amounts owed between funds. Those related to goods and services type transactions are classified as "due to and from other funds." Short-term interfund loans are reported as "interfund receivables and payables." Interfund receivables and payables between funds within governmental activities are eliminated in the Statement of Net Position. CAPITAL ASSETS The accounting treatment of property plant and equipment (capital assets) depends on whether they are used in governmental fund operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in the governmentwide or fund financial statements. Prior to GASB No. 34, governments were not required to report general infrastructure assets. The Town of Grand Coteau did not capitalize infrastructure expenditures. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2004, the Town began to capitalize infrastructure. In the government-wide financial statements, capital assets are capitalized at historical cost, or estimated historical cost if actual is unavailable, except for donated assets, which are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of donation. The Town of Grand Coteau maintains a threshold level of $500 or more for capitalizing capital assets. Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expense in the Statement of Activities, with accumulated depreciation reflected in the Statement of Net Position. Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation. The range of estimated useful lives by type of assets is as follows: Building and improvements Furniture and equipment Vehicles Water system Sewerage system Meters 20-40 years 5-10 years 5-15 years 20-50 years 20-50 years 10-20 years The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend asset lives are not capitalized. It is the policy of the Town to capitalize material amounts of interest resulting from borrowings in the course of the construction of fixed assets. In the fund financial statements, capital assets used in governmental fund operations are accounted for as facilities acquisition and construction expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition. BAD DEBTS Uncollectible amounts due for ad valorem taxes, miscellaneous liens, and sundry claims are recorded as bad debts through the establishment of an allowance account at the time information available indicated the uncollectibility of the particular receivables.

21 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 0, MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued BAD DEBTS - Continued Allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable at June 30, 2014 in the General Fund and Enterprise Funds was $8,624 and $20,361, respectively. BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING The Town follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in these financial statennents: 1. A public meeting is scheduled by the Town Council after allowing for at least 10 days notice to the public at the time the budget is initially submitted to the Town Council. 2. The budget must be finally adopted by the Council no later than the last day of the preceding fiscal year. 3. The Mayor and Town Council may authorize transfers of budgetary amounts within departments and revisions requiring alteration of levels of expenditures or transfers between departments. 4. Operating appropriations, to the extent not expended or encumbered, lapse at year-end. Capital appropriations continue in force until the project is completed or deemed abandoned. 5. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund and Special Revenue Funds. Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The budgeted accounts shown in these financial statements include the original and final budget amounts for the year ending June 30, 2014. The budget was amended during a public meeting prior to the fiscal year-end. ENCUMBRANCES Encumbrances accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is not employed by the Town as an extension of formal budgetary integration in the funds. INVENTORY The Town practices the policy of recording materials and supplies as expenditures or expenses when acquired. The Town does not record any of these items as inventory because the amount of the items in stock is insignificant. COMPENSATED ABSENCES The Town's policy is that employees earn and must use their vacation as of the end of each calendar year. Unused sick leave can be carried forward to the next calendar year. Upon termination, unused sick leave up to 90 days is paid to the employee at the employee's current rate of pay. The entire compensated absence liability is reported on the government-wide financial statements. For governmental fund financial statements, the current portion of unpaid compensated absences is the amount that is normally expected to be paid using expendable available financial resources. These amounts are recorded in the account "compensated absences payable" in the fund from which the employees who have accumulated leave are paid. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Town considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

22 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 0. MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Town considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. RESTRICTRED ASSETS Restricted assets include cash and interest-bearing deposits of the proprietary fund that are legally restricted as to their use. The restricted assets are related to the utility meter deposits. LONG-TERM DEBT The accounting treatment of long-term debt depends on whether the assets are used in governmental fund operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in the government-wide or fund financial statements. All long-term debt to be repaid from governmental and business-type resources are reported as liabilities in the government-wide statements. Long-term debt for governmental funds is not reported as liabilities in the fund financial statements. The accounting for proprietary fund long-term debt is the same in the fund statements as it is in the government-wide statements. REVENUES. EXPENDITURES. AND EXPENSES Operating Revenues and Expenses Operating revenues and expenses for proprietary funds are those that result from providing services and producing and delivering goods and/or services. It also includes all revenue and expenses not related to capital and related financing, noncapital financing or investing activities. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. Expenditures/Expenses In the government-wide financial statements, expenses are classified by function for both governmental and business-type activities. In the fund financial statements, expenditures are classified as follows: Governmental Funds - By Character Proprietary Fund - By Operating and Nonoperating In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report expenditures of financial resources. Proprietary funds report expenses relating to use of economic resources. Interfund Transfers Permanent reallocations of resources between funds of the reporting entity are classified as interfund transfers. For the purposes of the Statement of Activities, all interfund transfers between individual governmental funds have been eliminated.

23 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 N0TE1- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED 0. MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued EQUITY CLASSIFICATIONS In the government-wide statements, equity is classified as net position and displayed in three components; 1. Net investment in capital assets - Consists of capital assets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes, or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. 2. Restricted net position - Consist of net position with constraints placed on the use either by (1) external groups, such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2) law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. 3. Unrestricted net position - Ail other net position that do not meet the definition of "restricted" or "net investment in capital assets." In the fund financial statements, governmental fund equity is classified as fund balance. Fund balance reports aggregate amounts for five classifications of fund balances based on the constraints imposed on the use of these resources. Proprietary fund equity is classified the same as in the government-wide statements. The nonspendable fund balance classification includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form - prepaid items or inventories; or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The spendable portion of the fund balance comprises the remaining four classifications: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. 1. Restricted fund balance - This classification reflects the constraints imposed on resources either (a) externally by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (b) imposed by law through constitutional provisions for enabling legislation. 2. Committed fund balance - These amounts can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal resolutions or ordinances of the Board of Aldermen - the government's highest level of decision making authority. Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the Board of Aldermen removes the specified use by taking the same type of action imposing the commitment. This classification also includes contractual obligations to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements. 3. Assigned fund balance - This classification reflects the amounts constrained by the Town's "intent" to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. The Board of Aldermen, Mayor and Town Clerk have the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. Assigned fund balances include all remaining amounts (except negative balances) that are reported in governmental funds, other than the General Fund, that are not classified as nonspendable and are neither restricted nor committed. 4. Unassigned fund balance - This fund balance is the residual classification for the General Fund. It is also used to report negative fund balances in other governmental funds.

24 NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30. 2014 N0TE1- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED C. MEASUREMENT FOCUS/BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - Continued EQUITY CLASSIFICATIONS - Continued When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the Town's policy to use externally restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources - committed, assigned and unassigned - in order as needed. ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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, expenditures, and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
