Deloitte LLP 400 Applewood Crescent Suite 500 Vaughan ON L4K 0C3 Canada Tel: 416-601-6150 Fax: 416-601-6151 www.deloitte.ca Independent Auditor s Report To the Members of Council, Inhabitants and Ratepayers of the Corporation of the Town of Whitby We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Corporation of the Town of Whitby, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at, and the consolidated statements of operations, change in net financial 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 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. 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 in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation of the Town of Whitby as at and the results of its operations, change in its net financial assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Canadian public sector accounting standards.

1. Significant accounting policies The consolidated financial statements of The Corporation of the Town of Whitby (the Town ) are the representations of management prepared in accordance with accounting standards, as recommended by the Public Sector Accounting Board ( PSAB ) of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada. a) i) Reporting entity These consolidated financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, accumulated surplus, revenues, expenses and annual surplus of the reporting entity. The reporting entity is comprised of all organizations, local boards and committees which are controlled by the Town, including the following: Town of Whitby Public Library Board; and Groveside Cemetery Board All material inter-entity transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation with the exception of transactions/balances with Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation (Note 1(a) (ii)). ii) Investment in Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation and its subsidiaries are accounted for on a modified equity basis, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles as recommended by PSAB for government business enterprises. Under the modified equity basis of accounting, the business enterprise s accounting principles are not adjusted to conform to those of the Town, and inter-organizational transactions and balances are not eliminated. The Town recognizes its equity interest in the annual income or loss of Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation in its statement of operations with a corresponding increase or decrease in its investment asset account. Any dividends that the Town receives from Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation are reflected as reductions in the investment asset account. iii) Accounting for region and school board transactions The taxation, other revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities with respect to the operations of the school boards and the Region of Durham are not reflected in the municipal fund balances of these financial statements. iv) Trust funds Trust funds and their related operations administered by the Town are not consolidated, but are reported separately on the Trust Funds Statement of Financial Activities and Change in Fund Balance and the Trust Funds Statement of Financial Position. b) Basis of accounting i) Revenues and expenses Revenues and expenses are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. The accrual basis of accounting recognizes revenues, as they are earned and measurable; expenses are recognized, as they are incurred and measurable as a result of the receipt of goods or services and the creation of a legal obligation to pay. Tax revenue ii) Tax revenue is recognized on all taxable properties within the Town included in the tax roll provided by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation, using property values included in the tax roll or property values that can be reasonably estimated by the Town as it relates to supplementary or omitted assessments using tax rates authorized by Council for the Town s own purposes in the period for which the tax is levied. Investments Investments are recorded at lower of cost or market value. Page 7
1. Significant accounting policies (continued) b) Basis of accounting (continued) iii) Non-financial assets Non-financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year and are not intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations. Tangible capital assets Tangible capital assets are recorded at cost which includes all amounts that are directly attributable to acquisition, construction, development or betterment of the asset. The cost, less residual value, of the tangible capital assets excluding land are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows: Useful life-years Land improvements 10-20 Building and building improvements 10-50 Vehicles, machinery and equipment 5-20 Stormwater management 15-75 Road infrastructure 25-50 One half of the amortization is charged in the year of acquisition and in the year of disposal. Assets under construction are not amortized until the asset is available for productive use. Contribution of tangible capital assets Tangible capital assets received as contributions are recorded at their fair value as the date of receipt and also are recorded as revenue. Interest capitalization The Town s tangible capital asset policy does not allow for the capitalization of interest costs associated with the acquisition or construction of tangible capital assets. iv) Deferred revenue - obligatory reserve funds Deferred revenue - obligatory reserve funds represents development charge contributions, payments in lieu of parkland, building code net revenues, Invest in Ontario grants, and gas tax, levied or received under the authority of federal and provincial legislation and Town by-laws. These amounts have been collected but the related services have yet to be performed. These amounts will be recognized as revenue in the fiscal year the related services are performed. v) Deferred revenue - general Deferred revenue - general represents user charges and other fees, which have been collected, for which the related services have yet to be performed. These amounts will be recognized as revenue in the fiscal year the related services are performed. vi) Employee future benefits liabilities The present value of the cost of providing employees with future benefits programs is recognized as employees earn these entitlements through service. Page 8
1. Significant accounting policies (continued) b) Basis of accounting (continued) vii) Government transfers Government transfers are recognized as revenues by the Town in the period during which the transfer is authorized and any eligibility criteria are met. Government transfers are deferred if they are restricted through stipulations that require specific actions to be carried out in order to keep the transfer. For such transfers, revenue is recognized when the stipulation has been met. viii) Reserves and reserve funds Certain amounts, as approved by Town Council are set aside in reserves and reserve funds for future operating and capital purposes. Transfers to and/or from reserves and reserve funds are an adjustment to the respective fund when approved. ix) Liability for contaminated sites A liability for the remediation of a contaminated site is recognized as the best estimate of the amount required to remediate the contaminated site when contamination exceeding an environmental standard exists, the Town is either directly responsible or accepts responsibility, it is expected that the future economic benefit will be given up, and a reasonable estimate of the amount is determinable. If the likelihood of the Town s obligation to incur these costs is either not determinable, or if an amount cannot be reasonably estimated, the costs are disclosed as contingent liabilities in the notes to the financial statements. x) Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian public sector accounting standards requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates relate to taxes receivable, accounts receivable, employee future benefits liabilities and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Due to the inherent uncertainty in making estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Operations of school boards and the Region of Durham Further to Note 1 a) iii), requisitions were made by the Region of Durham and School Boards requiring the Town to collect property taxes and payments in lieu of property taxes on their behalf. The amounts collected and remitted are summarized as follows: School Region of boards Durham Total Total Taxation 50,785,272 124,939,802 175,725,074 170,920,598 Payment in lieu of taxes 626,077 1,895,137 2,521,214 2,529,908 Amounts collected and remitted 51,411,349 126,834,939 178,246,288 173,450,506 3. Trust funds Trust funds administered by the Town amounting to $1,136,509 (2015 - $1,077,297) have not been included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position nor have their operations been included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The following is the current status of the deferred revenues: Obligatory reserve funds Development charges 85,674,690 82,713,129 Parkland 4,616,799 3,948,382 Federal gas tax 4,448,545 4,665,647 Deferred revenue - general 4,470,622 3,832,134 99,210,656 95,159,292 Page 10

Liability for contaminated site The Town has recorded an unfunded liability of $3,566,000 (2015 - $ 3,566,000) i for the estimated remediation costs associated with a Town owned site with identified contaminates in the soil. The liability estimate for the site identified was based on an environmental assessment conducted by a third party engineering firm. At this time, the Town does not anticipate obtaining any recoveries in respect of the estimated liability. 8. Employee future benefits liabilities The Town makes available to qualifying employees who retire before the age of 65, the opportunity to continue their coverage for such benefits as extended health and drugs, dental care and life insurance. Coverage ceases at the age of 65. The accrued benefit liability and the expense for the year ended are based on the results and assumptions of an actuarial valuation as at. The significant actuarial assumptions used in estimating the Town s related accrued benefit obligation are as follows: Discount rate 4.00% Inflation rate 1.75% per year Dental benefit cost escalation 3.75% per year Medical benefit cash escalation 4.75% per year reducing to 3.75% per year over 3 years Information about the Town s post retirement benefit plan is as follows: Accrued benefit liability Accrued benefit obligation 11,357,098 10,779,937 Unamortized actuarial loss (1,111,375) (751,017) Employee future benefit liability 10,245,723 10,028,920 Page 11

Tangible capital assets i) Contributed tangible capital assets The Town records all tangible capital assets contributed by an external party at fair value on the earlier of the date received or of the transfer of risk and responsibility. Typical examples are land, roadways, and storm sewer lines installed by a developer as part of a subdivision agreement. Transfer of tangible capital assets in 2016 amounted to $12,299,136 (2015 - $8,856,926). ii) Tangible capital assets recognized at nominal value Certain assets have been assigned a nominal value of one Canadian dollar, because of the difficulty of determining a tenable valuation and/or the assets were older than their estimated expected useful lives, and therefore were fully amortized. iii) Works of art and historical treasures The Town applies efforts to protect and preserve a number of owned historical buildings, collections of equipment, artifacts, documents and exhibits and works of art. These assets are not held for financial gain or to provide service but rather for public exhibition, education or research in furtherance of public service. These historical treasures and works of art are not recognized as tangible capital assets in the financial statements. The acquisition or betterment of such assets is recognized in the financial statements as an operating expense. Page 12

The financing arrangements and ultimate repayment are approved by Council through the current budget process. The following is a summary of the individual loans.

The Plan is a defined benefit plan that specifies the amount of the retirement benefit to be received by the employees based on the length of service and rates of pay.

13. Budget figures The 2016 operating budget adopted by Council was not prepared on a basis consistent with that used to report actual results. The budget was prepared on a modified accrual basis while Public Sector Accounting Standards require a full accrual basis. The budget figures did not include amortization expense on tangible capital assets, capital expenses or post-employment benefits. As a result, the budget figures presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Change in Net Financial Assets represent the budget adopted by Council with adjustments as follows: 2016 2016 operating budget Adjust for budget adopted by consolidated PSAS presented in council entities adjustments statements Taxation 78,559,793 - - 78,559,793 User fees and charges 17,618,678 1,290,140-18,908,818 Developer and other contributions - - 15,210,124 15,210,124 Gas tax revenue - - 4,110,297 4,110,297 Revenue recognized on contributed tangible capital assets - - 12,299,136 12,299,136 Other 9,424,743 675,482 3,560,000 13,660,225 105,603,214 1,965,622 35,179,557 142,748,393 Expenses General government 18,460,448 (4,854,335) 2,168,685 15,774,798 Protection 21,294,978-1,250,309 22,545,287 Transportation 18,213,727-20,807,105 39,020,832 Environmental 3,542,499-2,839,476 6,381,975 Social and family 1,083,468 245,658 5,084 1,334,210 Recreation and culture 19,313,296 5,977,979 8,469,498 33,760,773 Planning and development 4,086,898-1,318,872 5,405,770 Interfund transfers 19,607,900 1,535,229 (21,143,129) - 105,603,214 2,904,531 15,715,900 124,223,645 Annual surplus - (938,909) 19,463,657 18,524,748 14.

15. Investment in Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation (continued) b) Commitments and Contingencies of Whitby Hydro Energy Corporation as disclosed in their financial statements are as follows: General Liability Insurance The Corporation maintains appropriate types and levels of insurance with major insurers. With respect to liability insurance, the Corporation is a member of the Municipal Electricity Association Reciprocal Insurance Exchange ( MEARIE ). A reciprocal insurance exchange may be defined as a group of persons formed for the purpose of exchanging reciprocal contracts of indemnity or inter-insurance with each other. MEARIE is licensed to provide general liability insurance to its members. All members of the pool could potentially be subjected to an assessment for losses experiences by the pool for the years in which they were members on a pro-rata basis on the total of their respective service revenues. It is anticipated that should such an assessment occur it would be funded over a period of up to 5 years. As at, no such assessments have been made. Contractual Obligations The Corporation is party to a connection and cost recovery agreement with Hydro One Networks Inc. (Hydro One) related to the construction by Hydro One of a transformer station designated to meet the Corporation s anticipated load growth. Construction of the project was completed during 2007 and the Corporation connected to the transformer station in November 2007. To the extent that the cost of the project is not recoverable from future transformer connection revenues, the Corporation is obliged to pay a capital contribution equal to the difference between these revenues and the construction costs allocated to the Corporation. Hydro One performs a true-up based on actual load on a periodic basis. There is currently no revenue shortfall owing by the Corporation based on the most recent true-up. Any estimated short fall in the future would be recorded as a liability and a corresponding intangible asset when determined. General From time to time, the Corporation is involved in various litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Corporation has no reason to believe that the disposition of any such current matter could reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse impact on the Corporation s financial position, results of operations or its ability to carry on any of its business activities. The Corporation is committed to lease agreements for various vehicles and equipment. The future minimum non-cancellable annual lease payments are as follows: Less than one year 332 227 Between one and five years 1,657 880 More than five years 111 69 2,100 1,176 Page 19
16. Segmented information The Town provides a wide range of services to its residents. Segmented information has been provided in Schedule 1 for the following Town Services: Protection to persons and property Public works services (transportation and environmental) Recreation and Culture Planning and Development General Government Revenues and expenses directly attributable to each segment are reported by segment. Typically general government expenses are incurred in support of all services. Similarly general government revenues including taxes are used to finance all activities of the Town. For purposes of segmented reporting general government revenues and expenses have not been allocated to the other services but rather are shown separately. 17. Comparative figures Certain of prior year s figures have been reclassified to conform with current year s presentation. Page 20
