Auditor s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of the aggregate discretely presented component units, which represent the foregoing percentages of the total assets, net position, and total revenues of the aggregate discretely presented component units as follows: 2017 Total Net Total Assets Position Revenues Discretely Presented Component Units: MCC Foundation 26% 57% 23% MCC Association 74% 43% 77% 2016 171 Sully s Trail, Suite 201 Pittsford, New York 14534 p (585) 381-1000 f (585) 381-3131 www.bonadio.com Discretely Presented Component Units: MCC Foundation 25% 61% 19% MCC Association 75% 39% 81% Those statements were audited by another auditor whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the aggregate discretely presented component units, is based solely on the reports of the other auditor.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR S REPORT (Continued) Auditor s Responsibility (Continued) We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States 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. The financial statements of the aggregate discretely presented component units were not audited in accordance with Government Auditing Standards. 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. Opinions In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditor, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business-type activities and the aggregate discretely presented component units of Monroe Community College as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Report on Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require that the management s discussion and analysis on pages 4 through 14 and the schedule of proportionate share of net pension asset (liability) and schedule of contributions pension plans on pages 47 and 48 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, 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR S REPORT (Continued) Report on Supplementary Information Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the College s basic financial statements. The combining component unit information included in Schedules I and II and the additional supplementary information included in Schedules III through V is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The combining component unit information included in Schedules III and IV and the additional supplementary information included in Schedules V through VII is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates 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 by us and the other auditor. In our opinion, based on our audits, the procedures performed as described above, and the reports of the other auditor, the combining component unit information included in Schedules III and IV and the additional supplementary information included in Schedules V through VII, are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 18, 2018, on our consideration of the College 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 the 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 College s internal control over financial reporting and compliance. 3

The MD&A presents financial information solely for the College and does not include the component units. Overview of Financial Statements The financial statements of the College have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The College complies with GASB pronouncements, which establish accounting and financial reporting standards for public colleges and universities. The objective of these standards is to enhance the understandability and usefulness of the external financial reports issued by public colleges and universities. Additionally, the financial statements focus on the College as a whole, rather than on individual affiliated entities, funds, or activities. The financial statements consist of Statements of Net Position, Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position, Statements of Cash Flows Primary Institution, and accompanying notes. These statements provide information on the financial position, the financial activities and change in financial position and cash flows of the College during the year. A description of these statements follows. The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the College s assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the College is improving or deteriorating. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position presents the changes in the College s financial position for the fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. The Statement of Cash Flows Primary Institution provides information on the major sources and uses of cash during the year. The cash flow statement portrays net cash from operating, investing, capital and related financing activities, and noncapital financing activities. 4

All cash and checks received by the College and the majority of electronic wire transfers are deposited into this account. During the year, the average bank balance in the depository account was approximately $34,611,000. The College determined that the majority of excess cash would remain in this account due to the fact that the earnings allowance on this account was 75 basis points as compared to the 5 to 7 basis points earned in money market investments. Although the depository account does not accrue interest, the bank provides an earnings allowance that is used as an offset to bank service charges. The average monthly earnings allowance for the year was $32,000, whereas the average monthly bank service charges were $40,000.!

MONROE COMMUNITY COLLEGE (A Component Unit of the County of Monroe, New York) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AUGUST 31, 2017 AND 2016 1. THE ORGANIZATION Monroe Community College (the College) is a two-year community college founded in 1961. The College is part of a statewide system of two-year institutions designed to provide technical, para-professional and university parallel education. The College is one of thirty community colleges within the State University of New York (SUNY). SUNY community colleges are financed by New York State, student tuition and a local sponsor. The College is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The College - Primary Institution Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The College reports as a special purpose government engaged in business-type activities, as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to include public colleges and universities. Business-type activities are those that are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or services. The financial statements of the College consist of management s discussion and analysis; classified statements of net position; statements of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position that distinguishes between operating and nonoperating activities; and statements of cash flows, using the direct method of presentation. The College s policy for defining operating activities in the statements of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position are those that generally result from exchange transactions such as the payment received for services and payment made for the purchase of goods and services. Certain other transactions are reported as nonoperating activities in accordance with GAAP. Those nonoperating activities include the College s operating appropriations from the State and County, and federal and state financial aid. Financial Dependency The College is economically dependent on appropriations from New York State and the County of Monroe, New York, to carry out its operations. These appropriations represented significant nonoperating revenue sources for the years ended August 31, 2017 and 2016. 19

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Financial Reporting Entity The College is a discretely presented component unit of the County of Monroe, New York. The financial statements of the College include the College and its component units, which are defined as legally separate organizations that are financially accountable to the College. Financial accountability to the College is determined on the basis of fiscal dependency, appointment of a voting majority of a governing board, ability to impose the College s will or potential for the component unit to provide specific financial benefits to, or to impose specific financial burdens on, the College. Based on these criteria, Monroe Community College Association, Inc. (MCC Association) and Monroe Community College Foundation, Inc. (MCC Foundation) are included in the financial reporting entity as discrete component units. Net Position Generally accepted accounting principles require the College to report its classification of net position into the following three categories:! Invested in capital assets This classification of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation.! Restricted - This classification of net position represents amounts whose use is subject to externally imposed conditions that the College must maintain the funds in perpetuity or that can be fulfilled by the actions of the College or by the passage of time.! Unrestricted - All other categories of net position. Unrestricted net position may be designated by actions of the College s Board of Trustees. The College has adopted a practice of generally utilizing restricted funds, when available, prior to unrestricted funds. Short-Term Investments By regulation of SUNY, the College may invest in money market funds, time deposits and certificates-of-deposit issued by a bank or trust company and in certain government obligations. These deposits are required to be secured, for amounts in excess of depository insurance, by a pledge of securities of the United States or New York State governments, municipal corporations, school districts or district corporations and eligible letters of credit. Investments of the College consist of deposits in money market funds which are stated at cost and are available to the College on demand. Accounts Receivable! Student Receivables - Student receivables include amounts owed by students primarily for tuition and fees. Delinquent student accounts are written off after eight years. Additionally, the College records a provision for uncollectible accounts receivable each year based on the estimated probability of collection and current economic conditions. 20

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Accounts Receivable (Continued)! Government Receivables - Government receivables consist of appropriations made at the state and local governmental levels for sponsorships of various academic and other programs and for federal student aid.! Other Receivables - Other receivables include accounts receivable not identified above. This includes private sponsorship of students, academic and other programs, and rental revenues, etc. Investments Designated for Other Postemployment Benefits Investments designated for other postemployment benefits were established in 2011 by the Board of Trustees for the intention of funding other postemployment benefit obligations (OPEB). As of the date of these financial statements, New York State has not yet adopted legislation that would enable government entities to establish a qualifying trust for the purpose of funding OPEB benefits. Deferred Outflows of Resources Deferred outflows of resources represent a consumption of net position that applies to a future period. The College reported deferred outflows of resources of $12,537,601 and $22,153,935 as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to its cost-sharing pension plans. Capital Assets The primary cost of capital assets for the College is shared equally by the County and the State. Pursuant to New York State Education Law relative to community colleges, title to real property rests in and is held by the local sponsor (the County) in trust for the use and purposes of the College. The College has a stewardship responsibility and these assets are integral to the operations of the College. Therefore, all plant facility activity is recorded by the College. Capital assets, including improvements, are stated at cost or, in the case of gifts, at acquisition value at the date of donation. In accordance with the College s capitalization policy, only those items with a unit cost of more than $2,500 are capitalized. Capital assets, with the exception of land and construction in progress, are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 50 years. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized. Net Pension Asset Net pension asset consists of the College s proportional share of the New York State Teachers Retirement System s (TRS) net pension asset. Fringe Benefits The College provides fringe benefit programs to eligible faculty and staff, including health and life insurance, unemployment, retirement and workers compensation benefits. Health insurance, life insurance, unemployment, and pension costs are billed directly to the College by external agencies/carriers. Workers compensation costs are assessed based on several factors including the College s actual experience. 21

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Compensated Absences Employees earn the right to be compensated during absences for vacation leave and sick leave. Accrued vacation is the amount earned by all eligible employees through August 31, 2017 and 2016. The accrued sick leave balance, for employees not participating in the New York State Teachers and Employees Retirement Systems, ranges from 12% to 15% of amounts earned by those employees through August 31, 2017 and 2016, based on employee tier levels. Upon retirement, this accrued balance is deposited into the employee s retirement fund. Unearned Revenues Deposits and advance payments received for tuition and fees related to the subsequent academic year are unearned and are recorded as revenues as earned in the subsequent year. Deferred Inflows of Resources Deferred inflows of resources represent acquisition of net position that applies to a future period. The College reported deferred inflows of $3,886,555 and $3,441,443 as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to payments received under the New York State Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). The College reported deferred inflows of $4,092,709 and $3,366,101 as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to its cost-sharing pension plans. Student Tuition Student tuition is presented net of scholarship allowances and estimated bad debt applied to students accounts. Certain other scholarship amounts are paid directly to, or refunded to, the student and are generally reflected as expenses. Revenues Revenues are recognized in the accounting period when earned. Revenues and expenses arising from nonexchange transactions are recognized when all eligibility requirements are met. Appropriations Government appropriations are reported on an accrual basis. Appropriations for capital projects are recorded when capital assets are purchased by the State or the County for the benefit of the College. Income Taxes The College is a unit of the SUNY, which is a unit of the State of New York and is, therefore, generally exempt from income taxes under Section 115 of the Internal Revenue Code. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2016 financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. 22

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Component Units The following represents the significant accounting policies of the College s component units. The component units financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, as prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). MCC Association Investments Investments consist of invested cash and mutual funds. Invested cash is maintained in money market accounts at a financial institution and an investment company located in Rochester, New York and St. Louis, Missouri, and is valued at cost. Mutual funds are stated at fair value based on quoted market prices. Unrealized gains or losses on securities result from differences between the cost and fair value of securities on a specified valuation date. The investments are exposed to a variety of uncertainties, including interest rate, market, currency and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is possible that changes in the values of these investments could occur in the near term. Uninsured balances in money market accounts and certificates-of-deposit approximated $10,500,000 and $11,500,000 at June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The MCC Association has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes it is not exposed to any significant risk on invested cash. Capital Assets Capital assets, including improvements, are stated at cost or, in the case of gifts, at estimated fair value at the date of donation. Capital assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from 3 to 40 years. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized. MCC Foundation Investments Investments consist of common stock and mutual funds, stated at fair value, based on quoted market prices, and portfolio funds, stated at net asset value. Unrealized gains or losses on securities result from differences between the cost and fair value of securities on a specified valuation date. The investments in common stock, mutual funds and other investments are exposed to a variety of uncertainties, including interest rate, market, currency and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments, it is possible that changes in the values of these investments could occur in the near term. Endowment MCC Foundation s endowment consisted of 131 and 127 individual funds as of August 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, established for a variety of purposes. As required by GAAP, net assets associated with endowment funds are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Net assets are restricted until amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the MCC Foundation in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by New York Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (NYPMIFA). 23
