3. MAJOR INITIATIVES:

Our most important initiative this year and in. the foreseeable future is our 1:1 IP<id progl(lm. This year, gradesthree through eight received !Pads from the District and are using them during the school day. Students in gradessix through eight may also use their Il'ads at home.

4. INTERNAL ACCOUNTING CONTROLS:Management of the District is responsible for e~tablishing and l'uaintaihing an internal control structure designed toellSI.U·cthat the assets .o£the District are protected from loss, theft, or misuse and to ensure that adequatel:\cc(luntingdata are compiled to a119w for tlw· preparatiQn of fmancial statem¢u.ts in conformity with Generally AcceptedAccounting Principles (G.A.A.P.). An internal control structure is design¢<i to provide reasonable, put not absolute,assurance that these objectives lire met. The concept of reas.onable assurance recognizes that: (1) the cost of acontrol should not exceed the benefit$ likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of c6s(:'<;and benefits requiresestimates and judgments by management.

As a recipient of federal and state Il11ancial.assistance; the District also is responslble forensuring that an adequateinternal control. structure is in place to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regnlatiQllS related to thoseprograms. This Int~rh&l control structure is also subjectto pei'iodic evaluation by the Districtananagement,

BETHLEHEM TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICTAsbury, New JerseyHunterdon County

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS (MD&A)June 30, 2014

The Township of Bethlehem School District (the "District") discussion and analysis is designed to providean overview of the District's financial activities for the year ended June 30, 2014, identify changes in theDistrict's financial position, identify any material deviations from the financial plan (the approved budget),and identify individual fund issues or concerns.

The focus of the Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is on current year activities, resultingchanges and currently known facts. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Transmittal Letterand the District's Financial Statements.

Financial Highlights

The district's governmental activities net position increased by $356,707 as reflected in Table 2, Changes inNet Position. This increase is primarily attributable to favorable variances (budget v. actual) in currentoperations of $269,398. An additional $91,697 is attributable to the excess of long-term liability reductionsand capital equipment acquisitions over depreciation. These increases were offset by an increase in accruedliabilities of $4,389. The district's business-type activity expenses exceeded related revenues by $11,607.This amount was entirely comprised of the net loss from food service operations. The District entered into a"break-even" contract with its food service management company for the year, and as a result, the reportednet loss is comprised of depreciation and equipment repair expenses, which are excluded from the contractual"break-even" formula. The breakdown of the governmental and business-type activity amounts are reflectedin Schedule A-2 of the District-wide Financial Statements. The District's General Fund reported an increasein Fund Balance of $269,398 for the year as reflected in Schedule B-2 of the District-wide FinancialStatements.

Understanding the Annual Report

New Jersey state law and administrative code require that school districts follow Generally AcceptedAccounting Principles (GAAP.) The format focuses on the district as a whole (government-wide financialstatements) and refocuses the fund financial statements on major funds. Major funds are defined as those inwhich total assets and liabilities or revenues and expenditures/expenses are 10% or more of the total assetsand liabilities or revenues and expenditures/expenses of all funds of that type (governmental, proprietary,etc.) and at least 5% of the assets and liabilities or revenues and expenditures/expenses for all governmentaland enterprise funds combined.

Government-Wide Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements (see financial statements A-I and A-2) are designed to becorporate-like in that all government and business-type activities are consolidated into columns, which addto a total for the district. The focus of the Statement of Net Position is designed to be similar to a bottomline for the district and its governmental and business type activities. This statement combines andconsolidates governmental fund's current financial resources (short-term spendable resources) with capitalassets and long-term obligations.

The Statement of Activities is focused on both the gross and net costs of various activities (includinggovernmental and business-type), which are provided by the government's general tax and other revenues.This statement is intended to summarize and simplify the user's analysis of the cost of variousgovernmental services and/or subsidy to various business type activities. All changes in net position arereported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of therelated cash flows. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator ofwhether the financial position of the district is improving or deteriorating.

Fund Financial Statements

A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have beensegregated for specific activities or objectives. As required by accounting principles generally accepted inthe U.S and New Jersey state law and regulation, the district uses fund accounting to ensure anddemonstrate compliance with finance related legal requirements. All of the funds of the district can bedivided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds.

The governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmentalactivities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financialstatements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendableresources and balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. This is the manner inwhich the District's financial plan (budget) is typically developed. The flow and availability of currentfinancial resources is a clear and appropriate focus of any analysis of a government. The financialstatements include reconciliations of the differences between the fund balance of the governmental fundsand the net position of the governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements (Exhibit B-1) and a reconciliation of the differences between the net changes in government fund balances and thechange in net position in the government-wide financial statements (Exhibit B-3).

The proprietary funds consist of a major program (food services enterprise fund) Proprietary funds areused to account for activities and programs that are financed primarily through user fees. The activityreported in the proprietary funds utilizes the same basis of accounting as that of the business-type activitiesreported in the government-wide financial statements. The "Total" column on the business-type fundfinancial statements is the same as the business-type column on the government-wide financial statements.

Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside of the government.Fiduciary funds are not reported in the government-wide financial statements because the resources ofthose funds are not available to support the programs of the district. The district's fiduciary funds includethe student activities fund, the payroll agency fund, and the employee benefit flexible spending trust fund.

The District as a Whole

Table I reflects the condensed Statement of Net Assets. In this statement the district is divided into twokinds of activities:

Governmental Activities-These activities consist of instruction and those services, which supportinstruction such as maintenance, transportation and administration.

Business-Type Activities- These activities consist of the district's cafeteria operations, childcare program,summer camp program and summer enrichment program. Each of the aforementioned programs and thecafeteria charge fees for the services provided that are intended to cover most or all of the cost of servicesprovided.

The condensed Statement of Net Position reflects assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities anddeferred inflows of resources of the district on an accrual basis of accounting. This statement, whichreflects the district's net financial position, is a yardstick of measuring the district's net worth. It meansthat if the district were forced to liquidate on June 30,2014 and sell all its assets at book value, after payingall known bills and liabilities, including long-term bonds and lease obligations, the District would have atotal of $691,964 remaining.

During FY 2014 the net position ofthe District's governmental activities increased by $356,707. Favorablebudget variances and the excess of debt repayment and capital equipment acquisitions over depreciationexpenses were offset by the write-off of state building aid revenues accrued in prior periods and deemeduncollectible during the current fiscal period. The net position of the food service (business-type) activitiesdecreased by $11,554 in the current fiscal period. The food service fund has been operating at a deficit forseveral years. At June 30, 2014, the unrestricted net position of the food service fund was $5,740.

The balance generated in current operations was primarily driven by savings throughout the budget. ExhibitC-l provides a breakdown of the budget line items included in the District's approved 2013-2014 budgetand the variances in actual revenues and expenditures. Revenue realization for the 2013-2014 school yeardeclined for governmental activities when compared to the 2012-2013 school year. As shown in Table 3,the Tax needed to support the District's budget decreased by 0.61% for the 2012-2013 school year. The taxlevy for general operations was held at the prior year levels, and required debt service levies declined by$45,065. Non-tax revenues of the District remain a small percentage of total revenues, however,unrestricted non-tax local revenues increased by $60,512 during the current year. Additionally, the districtrealized $21,836 more then anticipated for Extraordinary Aid.

9,590,430 9,771,050 -1.84%

The Cost of Governmental Funds Activities (see Table 3) this year was $9.59 million or a 1.84% decreasefrom the preceding year. The primary driver for this decrease was the reported costs of regular instruction,tuition, including tuition paid from federal funding sources, and general administration, transportation andcapital outlays. Although reported costs for employee benefits increased by $46,211, the actual costsfunded by the District budget increased by $177,000 during the 2013-14 school year. A decrease in theamount of "on-behalf' benefits payments made by the State of New Jersey for TPAF social security,pension, and post-retirement health care costs, which by statute are the state's responsibility. "On-behalf'payments decreased by $130,421 during the current period.

The District's Funds

The district's Balance Sheet for Governmental Funds (statement B-1) reports a combined fund balance of$1.636 million. The general fund portion of this balance includes an increase of $269,398 which resultedfrom current year's activities. This increase is the result of positive operating variances relative tobudgetary anticipations. In the FY 2014-2015 budget $350,035 of fund balance has been included as an

-18 -

offset to local taxes. An additional $308,941 is set-aside for FY 15-16 to stabilize the local tax levy on aGAAP basis.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights

The 2013-2014 revenues of the General fund amounted to $9.244 million or a 2.55% decrease from theprior year. Decreases were reported in every category of revenue, including property taxes, which weredecreased in the Board approved budget.

The 2013-2014 expenditures of the General fund amounted to $8.975 million, an decrease of $143,276(1.6%) from the prior year. Instructional, Tuition, General Administration and Transportation costs werethe largest cost drivers for the decrease. Excluding In-Kind costs, which are not budgeted, the Districtunderspent its available appropriation by $743,630 in 2013-2014.

Capital Asset and Debt Administration

Capital Assets

The District engaged an inventory valuation firm to identify and value its fixed assets as of June 30, 2013and for the current and prior school years. As the new inventory data did not conform to the amountsreported in the prior Comprehensive Annual Financial Statement, a restatement of the June 30, 2013 NetPosition of the District was required. The District's net investment in fixed assets and total net positionincreased by $896,708 as a result of this restatement. At the end of 2013, the district had $4,331,317invested in capital assets as shown on Table 4, Capital Assets Net of Depreciation at June 30, 2013 and2014. During 2013-2014, the District capitalized the costs of equipment and architectural fees totaling$59,680 in its governmental activities. Depreciation expense for 2013-2014 totaled $202,190, whichincluded $193,241 for governmental activities and $8,948 for business-type activities. During the 2013-2014 school year, the $190,000 of capital related debt retired was short of depreciation expenses by $3,421,decreasing the net increase in the District's financial position at year-end.

Total net change in fund balances - governmental funds (from B-2)

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statementof activities (A-2) are different because:

Capital outlays are reported in governmental funds as expenditures. However, in the statement ofactivities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense.This is the amount by which depreciation exceeded capital outlays in the period.

Depreciation expenseCapital Outlays

Repayment of bond and lease obligation (long-term debt)principal is an expenditure in the governmental funds,but the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the statement of net assets and is not reported in thestatement of activities.

In the statement of activities, the value of earned but unused compensated absences are accrued when it becomes,likely that these costs will be includable in employee termination payments, regardless of when due. In thegovernmental funds, compensated absence costs are reported in the accounting period in which they becomedue and payable. The net decrease in accrued compensated absences is an addition in the reconciliation. (+)

In the statement of activities, interest on long-term debt in the statement of activities is accrued,regardless of when due. In the governmental funds, interest is reported when due. The accruedinterest is a deduction in the reconciliation. (-)

TOWNSHIP OF BETHLEHEM SCHOOL DISTRICTCOUNTY OFBHUNTERDON, NEW JERSEY

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSJUNE 30, 2014

NOTE 10 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Ao Description of Government-Wide Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement ofactivities) of the Board of Education (Board) of the Township of bethlehem School District (District)report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government only. All fiduciaryactivities are reported only in the fund financial statements. Governmental activities, which normally aresupported by taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange transactions, are reportedseparately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges to externalcustomers for support. The District is not financially accountable for any legally separate componentunits, and no component units have been included in the government-wide financial statements.

Bo Reporting Entity:

The Township of Bethlehem School District is a Type II district located in the County of Hunterdon,State of New Jersey. As a Type II district, the School District functions independently through a Board ofEducation. The board is comprised of seven members elected to three-year terms. The purpose of thedistrict is to educate students in grades K-8. High school students (grades 9-12) are enrolled in the NorthHunterdon- Vorhees Regional High School District. The Township of Bethlehem School District had andaily enrollment of 451 students in grades K through 8 at the close of the 2013-2014 school year.

The primary criterion for including activities within the District's reporting entity, as set forth in Section2100 of the GASB Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards, iswhether:

~ the organization is legally separate (can sue or be sued in their own name)~ the District holds the corporate powers of the organization~ the District appoints a voting majority of the organization's board~ the District is able to impose its will on the organization~ the organization has the potential to impose a financial benefit/burden on the District~ there is a fiscal dependency by the organization on the District

Based on the aforementioned criteria, the District has no component units. Furthermore, the District is notincludable in any other reporting entity on the basis of such criteria.

Co Basis of Presentation - Government-Wide Financial Statements

While separate government-ide and fund financial statements are presented, they are interrelated. Thegovernmental activities column incorporates data from governmental funds and internal service funds,while business-type activities incorporate data from the government's enterprise funds. Separate financialstatements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, even though thelatter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. As a general rule, the effect ofinterfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

D. Basis of Presentation - Fnnd Financial Statements

The fund financial statements provide information about the District's funds, including its fiduciaryfunds. Separate statements for each category - governmental, proprietary and fiduciary - are presented.The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, with eachdisplayed in a separate column. Any remaining governmental and enterprise funds are aggregated andreported as nonmajor funds. Major individual governmental and enterprise funds are reported as separatecolumns in the fund financial statements.

The District reports the following major governmental funds:

General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the District. It is used to account forall financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Included are certainexpenditures for vehicles and movable instructional or noninstructional equipment which are classified inthe Capital Outlay sub fund.

As required by the New Jersey State Department of Education, the District includes budgeted CapitalOutlay in this fund. Generally accepted accounting principles as they pertain to governmental entitiesstate that General Fund resources may be used to directly finance capital outlays for long-livedimprovements as long as the resources in such cases are derived exclusively from unrestricted revenues.

Resources for budgeted capital outlay purposes are normally derived from State of New Jersey Aid,district taxes and appropriated fund balance. Expenditures are those that result in the acquisition of oradditions to fixed assets for land, existing buildings, improvements of grounds, construction of buildings,additions to or remodeling of buildings and the purchase of built-in equipment. These resources can betransferred from and to Current Expense by board resolution.

Special Revenue Fund - The Special Revenue Fund is used to account for the proceeds of specificrevenue from State and Federal Government, (other than major capital projects, Debt Service or theEnterprise Funds) and local appropriations that are legally restricted to expenditures for specifiedpurposes.

Capital Projects Fund - The Capital Projects Fund is used to account for all financial resources to beused for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities (other than those financed byProprietary Funds). The financial resources are derived from temporary notes or serial bonds that arespecifically authorized by the voters as a separate question on the ballot either during the annual electionor at a special election. State Aid in the form of Economic Development Authority Grants under EFCF Aare also financial resources of this fund

Debt Service Fund - The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, andthe payment of principal and interest on bonds issued to finance major property acquisition, constructionand improvement programs.

Permanent Fund - The Permanent Fund is used to report resources that are legally restricted to theextent that only earnings, and not principal, may be used for purposes that support the District's programs.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

D. Basis of Presentation - Fund Financial Statements (Cont'd.)

The District reports the following major enterprise funds:

Food Service Fund - The Food Service Fund is used to account fore the activities of the cafeteria operations of theDistrict.

The District also reports the following fiduciary fund types:

Agency Fund - The Agency Fund is used to account for assets held by the District in a trustee capacityor as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other governments and/or other funds. Agency fundsare custodial in nature and do not involve measurement of results of operations. Agency funds includepayroll and student activities funds.

Employee Benefit Trust (Flexible Spending) - Employee Benefit Trust should be used to reportresources that are required to be held in trust for members and beneficiaries of employee benefit plans.

Private Purpose Scholarship Trust - The Private Purpose Scholarship Trust should be used to report alltrust arrangements under which principal and/or income benefit individuals, private organizations or othergovernments.

During the course of its normal operations, the District will have activity between funds (interfundactivity) for various purposes. Any residual interfund balances at year end are reported as interfundaccounts receivable/payable. While these balances are reported in fund financial statements, certaineliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements. Balances betweenfunds included within governmental activities (the governmental and internal service funds) areeliminated so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the governmental activitiescolumn. Similarly, any interfund balances between business-type (enterprise) funds are eliminated so thatonly the net amount is included as internal balances in the business-type activities columns.

Further, interfund activity may occur during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. Infund financial statements, these amounts are reported at gross amounts as transfers in/out. In thepreparation of the government-wide financial statements, transfers between funds included asgovernmental activities are eliminated so that only net amounts of resources transferred ferom or to thegovernmental activities are reported. A similar treatment is afforded transfers of resources betweenenterprise funds for the preparation of business-type activity financial statements.

E. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting

The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied is determined by its measurement focus andbasis of accounting. Measurement focus indicates the type of resources being measured, such as currentfinancial resources or economic resources. The basis of accounting refers to the timing of transactions orevents for recognition in the financial statements.

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focusand the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded whena liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized asrevenues in the fiscal period that the taxes are levied by the municipality(s) within which the District isdomiciled. Ad Valorem (Property) Taxes are susceptible to accrual and under New Jersey State Statute amunicipality is required to remit to its school district the entire balance of taxes in the amount voted uponor certified, prior to the end of the school year. The District recognizes the entire approved tax levy as

- 40-

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

E. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting (Cont'd.)

revenue in the fiscal period for which they were levied. The District is entitled to receive moneys underan established payment schedule and any unpaid amount is considered to be an "accounts receivable".Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by theprovider have been met. State categorical aid revenues are recognized as District revenue during the fiscalperiod in which they are appropriated.

The governmental funds financial statements are reported using the current financial resourcesmeasurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenue is recognized when it becomesmeasurable and available. "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and"available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to payliabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the District considers revenues to be available if theyare collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures are generally recordedwhen a liability is incurred, as under accrual basis accounting. Exceptions to this general rule includedebt service, for which interest and principal expenditures in the Debt Service Fund are recognized ontheir due dates, and expenditures relating to compensated absences, claims and judgments, which arerecorded in the period when payment becomes due. General capital asset acquisitions are recorded asexpenditures in the governmental funds and are not capitalized. The issuance of long-term debt for capitalpurposes and capital lease obligations incurred to acquire general capital assets are reported as "otherfinancing sources".

The District records the entire approved tax levy as revenue (accrued) at the start of the fiscal year, sincethe revenue is both measurable and available. Entitlements are recorded as revenue when all eligibilityrequirements, including timing of funding appropriations, are met, subject to the 60-day availabilityrequirement for collection. Interest and tuition revenues are considered susceptible to accrual and havebeen recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period, subject to availability. Expenditure driven grantrevenues are recorded as qualifying expenditures are incurred and all other eligibility requirements havebeen met, subject to availability requirements. All other revenue items are considered measurable andavailable only when cash is received by the District.

The District's proprietary funds, employee benefit trust fund and private purpose scholarship trust fundsare reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Theagency fund has no measurement focus but utilizes the accrual basis of accounting for reporting its assetsand liabilities.

F. Budgets/Budgetary Control:

Annual budgets are adopted for the general, special revenue and debt service funds using a regulatorybasis of accounting which differs from generally accepted accounting principles in one material respect;Budgetary revenues for certain nonexchange state aid transactions are recognized for budgetary purposesin the fiscal period prior to the period in which the state recognizes expenditures/expenses. The amountsof the adjustments needed to reconcile the budgetary basis to the GAAP based fund financial statementsis set forth in the explanation of differences schedules which follow.

- 41-

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

F. Budgets/Budgetary Control: (Cont'd.)

Annual appropriated budgets are prepared in the spring of each year for the general, special revenue, anddebt service funds. The budgets are submitted to the county office for approval. Pursuant to changes inthe Local District School Budget Law, statutorily conforming base budgets of Districts with annualschool elections held in November (The District has chosen this option) are no longer required to bepresented to the voters for approval on the third Tuesday in April. Budgets are prepared using themodified accrual basis of accounting, except for the special revenue fund as described later. The legallevel of budgetary control is established at line item accounts within each fund. Line item accounts aredefined as the lowest (most specific) level of detail as established pursuant to the minimum chart ofaccounts referenced in N.J.A.C. 6:20-2A.2(m)1. Transfers of appropriations may be made by SchoolBoard resolution at any time during the fiscal year. New Jersey statutes place limits on the Board's abilityto increase budgeted expenditures through the appropriation of previously undesignated fund balance andrequires the District to obtain additional approvals when budgetary transfers, measured using theadvertised budgetary account totals rather than line-item totals, exceed certain thresholds. The Board ofEducation did not make any supplemental budgetary appropriations during the fiscal year that requiredadditional approvals from oversight agencies.

Formal budgetary integration into the accounting system is employed as a management control deviceduring the year. For governmental funds there are no substantial differences between the budgetary basisof accounting and generally accepted accounting principles with the exception of the legally mandatedrevenue recognition of the last state aid payment for budgetary purposes only and special revenue fund asnoted below. Encumbrance accounting is also employed as an extension of formal budgetary integrationin the governmental fund types. Unencumbered appropriations lapse at fiscal year end.

Appropriations in the general and debt service funds lapse at the end of the fiscal year even if they haverelated encumbrances. Encumbrances are commitments related to unperformed (executory) contracts forgoods and services. Encumbrance accounting is utilized to the extent necessary to assure effectivebudgetary control and accountability and to facilitate effective cash planning and control. While allappropriations and encumbrances lapse at year-end, valid outstanding encumbrances, for which thecontracted performance is expected during the subsequent budget cycle, are legally restricted at year-endand are automatically re-appropriated and become part of the subsequent years' budget pursuant to stateregulations.

The accounting records of the special revenue fund are maintained on the grant accounting budgetarybasis. The grant accounting budgetary basis differs from GAAP in that the grant accounting budgetarybasis recognizes encumbrances as expenditures and also recognizes the related revenues, whereas theGAAP basis does not. Sufficient supplemental records are maintained to allow for the presentation ofGAAP basis financial statements.

The following presents a reconciliation of the general fund revenues and special revenue fund revenuesand expenditures from the budgetary basis of accounting as presented in the Budgetary ComparisonSchedules - General and Special Revenue Funds to the GAAP basis of accounting as presented in theStatement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances - Governmental Funds.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

G. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments (Cont'd.):

New Jersey school districts are limited as to the types of investments and types of financial institutionsthey may invest in. New Jersey statute 18A:20-37 provides a list of permissible investments that may bepurchased by New Jersey school districts.

Additionally, the District has adopted a cash management plan that requires it to deposit public funds inpublic depositories protected from loss under the provisions of the Governmental Unit Deposit ProtectionAct ("GUDPA"). GUDPA was enacted in 1970 to protect Governmental Units from a loss of funds ondeposit with a failed banking institution in New Jersey.

N.J.S.A. 17:9-41 et. seq. establishes the requirements for the security of deposits of governmental units.The statute requires that no governmental unit shall deposit public funds in a public depository unlesssuch funds are secured in accordance with the Act. Public depositories include Savings and Loaninstitutions, banks (both state and national banks) and savings banks the deposits of which are federallyinsured. GUDPA was amended, effective July 1,2010, by P.L. 2009, c. 326. The amendments provide agreater level of security protection for covered deposits by increasing collateralization requirements andrevising the enforcement protocol to allow for timely response in the event that a member bank showssigns of stress.

Under the amended law, collateralization of GUDPA deposits up to 75% of New Jersey capital is basedon a sliding scale that requires the minimum of 5% collateral for Well Capitalized institutions to amaximum of 120% collateral for Critically Undercapitalized institutions. All uninsured GUDPA depositsin excess of 75% of New Jersey capital require 100% collateral. If a public depository fails, the collateralit has pledged, plus the collateral of all other public depositories, is available to pay the full amount oftheir deposits to the Governmental Units.

H. Tuition Receivable/Payable

Tuition charges for the fiscal years 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 were based on rates established by thereceiving district. These rates are subject to change when the actual costs have been determined.Adjustments were made to the preliminary rates originally established for the 2014-2015 school yearbased upon the certification of2012-2013 rates.

I. Inventories and Prepaid Expenses:

Inventories and prepaid expenses, which benefit future periods, other than those recorded in the enterprisefund are recorded as expenditures in the year of purchase.

Inventories in the Proprietary Funds are valued at cost, which approximates market, using thefirst-in-first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of such inventories is recorded as expenses when consumedrather than when purchased.

Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond June 30, 2014 are recorded asprepaid items in both the government-wide and fund financial statements.

K. Capital Assets:

Capital assets are capitalized at historical cost, or estimated historical cost for assets where actualhistorical cost is not available. Donated assets are recorded as capital assets at their estimated fair marketvalue at the date of donation. The District maintains a threshold level of $2,000.00 or more of initial,individual cost for capitalizing capital assets. The system for accumulation of fixed assets cost data doesnot provide the means for determining the percentage of assets valued at actual and those valued atestimated costs.

Capital assets are recorded in the District-wide financial statements, but are not reported in the Fundfinancial statements. Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimateduseful lives. Since surplus assets are sold for an immaterial amount when declared as no longer neededfor public school purpose by the District, no salvage value is taken into consideration for depreciationpurposes. Useful lives vary from 20 to 50 years for land improvements and buildings, and 5 to 15 yearsfor equipment.

Capital assets not being depreciated include land and may include construction in progress.

The District does not possess any material amounts of infrastructure capital assets, such as sidewalks andparking lots. Such items are considered to be part of the cost of buildings or other improvable property.

Depreciation of all exhaustive fixed assets used by proprietary funds is charged as an expense againsttheir operations. Accumulated depreciation is reported on proprietary fund statement of net position.Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Theestimated useful lives are as follows:

Food Service Fund:Equipment 15-20 Years

L. Compensated Absences:

Compensated absences are those absences for which employees will be paid, such as vacation, sick leave,and sabbatical leave. A liability for compensated absences that are attributable to services alreadyrendered, and that are not contingent on a specific event that is outside the control of the District and itsemployees, is accrued in the government-wide financial statements as the employees earn the rights to thebenefits. Compensated absences that related to future services, or that are contingent on a specific eventthat is outside the control of the District and its employees, are accounted for in the period in which suchservices are rendered or in which such events take place. The School District reports compensatedabsences in accordance with the provisions ofGASB No. 16, "Accounting for Compensated Absences".

In the governmental and similar trust funds, compensated absences that are expected to be liquidated withexpendable available financial resources are reported as a fund liability and expenditure in the fund thatwill pay for the compensated absence. The noncurrent portion for governmental funds is maintainedseparately and is a reconciling item between the fund and government-wide presentations.

Based upon existing personnel policies and collective bargaining agreements, employees are grantedvarying amounts of annual sick, personal and vacation leave. Sick leave may be accumulated for use insubsequent years and the right to a termination payment begins to vest with the employee after 10 years ofservice. Generally, terminal pay credit for unused sick leave is capped at 50% of the number of unused

Changes in the value of compensated absences earned and unused is more fully detailed in Note 4.

M. Deferred OutflowslInflows of Resources:

In addition to assets, the statement of financial position may report a separate section for deferredoutflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents a consumption of net positionthat applies to a .future period(s) and will not be recorded as an outflow of resources(expenditure/expense) until that time. The District did not enter into any transactions during the currentschool year that would require the recordation of a deferred outflow of resources, and no deferredoutflows were reported in the prior financial statements.

In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position may report a separate section for deferredinflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents a acquisition of net positionthat applies to a future period(s) and will not be recorded as an inflow of resources (revenue) until thattime. The District did not enter into any transactions during the current school year that would require therecordation of a deferred inflow of resources, and no deferred inflows were reported in the prior financialstatements.

N. Unearned Revenue/Advances from Grantors:

Unearned revenue represents cash advances received relating to services (expenditures/expenses) that willbe provided in a subsequent fiscal period. Similarly, for expenditure-driven grants, amounts advanced tothe District in excess of the amounts expended and earned are recorded as advances from grantors.

O. Net Position Flow Assumption (District-Wide and Proprietary Fund Financial Statements)

Periodically, the District may fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted resources, such asbond referendum proceeds and/or grant proceeds, and unrestricted resources. To determine the amountsof net position- restricted and unrestricted that should be reported in the government-wide and proprietaryfund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made to establish the order in which resources areconsidered to be applied. In the absence of specific grant compliance requirements to the contrary, theDistrict policy is to utilize all amounts of available restricted net position prior to applying unrestrictednet position to fund acquisition costs.

P. Fund Balance Flow Assumption (Governmental Fund Financial Statements)

Periodically, the District may fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted resources andunrestricted resources (the total of the committed, assigned and unassigned fund balance). To determinethe amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned fund balance in the governmentalfund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made to establish the order in which resources areconsidered to be applied. In the absence of specific grant compliance requirements to the contrary, theDistrict policy is to utilize all amounts of available restricted fund balance prior to applying anycomponent of unrestricted fund balance. Further, when the components of unrtestricted fund balance canbe used for the same purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fundbalance, with unassigned fund balance applied last.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)

Q. Fund Balance Policies:

Fund balance of the governmental funds is reported in various categories based upon the nature of anylimitations requiring the use of resources for specific purposes. The District itself can establish limitationson the use of resources through actions to transfer amounts to legally restricted reserve accounts (capital,maintenance and emergency reserves), or actions to commit or assign fund balance.

The committed fund balance includes amounts that can only be used for the specific purposes determinedby a formal action of the Board of Education. Commitments of fund balance remain in place until thecommitted fund balance is fully depleted or an amendatory action is taken by the Board of Education.

Assignments of fund balance are made by the Board of Education for specific purposes that do not thecriteria to be classified as committed. The Board of education also assigns fund balance when itappropriates unrestricted/unassigned fund balance to bridge a gap between estimated revenue andappropriations in the subsequent year budget. Unlike commitments, assignments are generally temporaryin nature, and additional actions of the Board are generally not required to remove an assignment,whereas an action of the Board is essential to the modification or elimination of an unexpendedcommitted fund balance.

R. District-Wide Financial Statement Classifications

1. Program Revenues - Amounts reported as program revenues include a) charges to customers orapplicants who purchase, use or benefit from goods services or privileges provided by a givenfunction or segment and b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting theoperational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment.

2. General Revenues - all taxes, including those designated for specific purposes such as debtservice, are reported as general revenues. All other resources, including internally dedicatedresources, unrestricted entitlements, and investment income are reported as general revenues.

3. Capital Assets - In the statement of net position, capital assets are reported, net of accumulateddepreciation as assets of the governmental activities and business-type activities.

4. Long-term Debt - In the statement of net position, long-term debt is reported as a component oflong-term liabilities of the governmental activities and business-type activities.

5. Net Investment in Fixed Assets - In the statement of Net Position, the net undepreciated valueof capital assets, less the value of outstanding debt issued to purchase acquire or build thosecapital assets, is reported as Net Investment in Fixed assets as a component of net position forthe governmental activities and business-type activities.

S. Proprietary Fund Operating and Nonoperating Revenues and Expenses

Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operatingrevenues and expenses generally result from providing services and products in connection with theprimary purpose or function for which the fund was established. The District's Food Service proprietaryfund reports operating revenues from the sales of lunches and a la carte items, and operating expensesinclude the costs of sales (food, supplies and labor), administrative costs and depreciation on capitalassets. Revenues earned through the District's participation in the National School Lunch Program areclassified as nonoperating revenues, notwithstanding the limitations on the pricing of Type A studentlunches that is required for program participation.

NOTE 10: CALCULATION OF EXCESS SURPLUS

In accordance with NJ.S.A. 18A:7F-7, as amended by P.L. 2004, c.73 (SI701), the designation forRestricted Fund Balance - Excess Surplus is a required calculation pursuant to the New JerseyComprehensive Educational Improvement and Financing Act of 1996 (CEIFA). New Jersey schooldistricts are required to restrict General Fund balance a the fiscal year end of June 30 if they did notappropriate a required minimum amount as budgeted fund balance in their subsequent year's budget.Based upon the statutory calculation, there was excess fund balance of $350,035.00 at June 30, 2014 thatwas appropriated as part of the 2014-15 school budget. There was $308,941.22 of excess fund balance atJune 30, 201 that will be required to be appropriated as part of the 2015-16 school budget.

NOTE 11. CAPITAL RESERVE ACCOUNT

A capital reserve account was established by the School District of Township of Bethlehem Board ofEducation by inclusion of $1.00 during fiscal year 2003 for the accumulation of funds for use as capitaloutlay expenditures in subsequent fiscal years. The capital reserve account is maintained in the generalfund and its activity is included in the general fund annual budget.

Funds placed in the capital reserve account are restricted to capital projects in the district's approvedLong Range Facilities Plan (LRFP) and updated annually in the Quality Assurance Annual Report(QAAR), including the payment of debt service on such projects. Upon submission of the LRFP to thedepartment, a district may deposit funds into the capital reserve at any time upon board resolution throughthe transfer of undesignated, unreserved general fund balance or of excess undesignated, unreservedgeneral fund balance that is anticipated in the budget certified for taxes. Pursuant to N.J.A.C. 6:23A-5.1(d) 7, the balance in the account cannot at any time exceed the local support costs of uncompleted projectsin its approved LRFP. During the 2012-13 School Year, there were no transfers to the capital reserve andno balances were appropriated in either the 2013-2014 or 2014-2015 school budgets. The capital reservebalance at June 30, 2013 and 2014 was $30,001.00.

NOTE 12. OTHER RESERVE ACCOUNTS

Pursuant to enabling legislation and rulemaking, the District established a legally restricted Reserve Fundfor Maintenance and Emergencies during the month of June, 2009. During the 2013-2014 school year, theMaintenance Reserve had the following activity:

Balance - June 30, 2013Withdrawn with Board Approval

Balance - June 30, 2014

$563,889.61(187,000.00)

$376,889.61

NOTE 13. DEFICIT FUND BALANCES

The District did not report a deficit fund balance at June 30, 2013 or 2014 in its General Fund in the fundstatements (modified accrual basis). P.L. 2003 c.97 provides that in the event a state school aid paymentis not made until the following school budget year, districts must record the last state aid payment asrevenue, for budget purposes only, in the current school budget year. The bill provides legal authority forschool districts to recognize this revenue in the current budget year. For intergovernmental transactions,GASB Statement No. 33 requires that recognition (revenue, expenditure, asset, liability) should be insymmetry, ie., if one government recognizes and asset, the other government recognizes a liability. Sincethe District is not recording the last two state aid payments, including Extraordinary Aid, on the GAAPfinancial statements until the year the State records the payable, it is possible that a positive fund balancecould be reported on a mandated budgetary basis while a deficit is reported on a GAAP basis based uponnonrecognition of revenue on the GAAP basis for the final state aid payment.

At June 30, 2014, there was no litigation pending for which an unfavorable outcome with a materialadverse impact on the net position of the District was anticipated.

Note: Overlapping govemments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the District.This schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents andbusinesses situated within the District. This process recognizes that, when considering the District's ability to issue and repay long-term debt, theentire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into account. However this does not imply thatevery taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for repaying the debt, of each overlapping payment.

a For debt repaid with property taxes, the percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable assessed property values.Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of another governmental unit's taxable value that is within thedistrict's boundaries and dividing it by each unit's total taxable value.

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIALREPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON

AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED INACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Honorable President and Membersof the Board of Education

Township of Bethlehem School DistrictCounty of Hunterdon, New Jersey

We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government AuditingStandards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and audit requirements asprescribed by the Division of Finance, Department of Education, State of New Jersey, thefinancial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fundand the aggregate remaining fund information of the Township of Bethlehem School District, inthe County of Hunterdon, State of New Jersey, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014, andthe related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the district's basicfinancial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated November 24, 2014.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Township ofBethlehem School District's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) todetermine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose ofexpressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing anopinion on the effectiveness of the Township of Bethlehem School District's internal control.Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Township of BethlehemSchool District's internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allowmanagement or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, toprevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is adeficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonablepossibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented,or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or acombination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yetimportant enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

-122 -

Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purposedescribed in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficienciesin internal control that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. Given theselimitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that weconsider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not beenidentified.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Township of Bethlehem SchoolDistrict's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of itscompliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements,noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination offinancial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with thoseprovisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are requiredto be reported under Government Auditing Standards and audit requirements as prescribed by theDivision of Finance, Department of Education, State of New Jersey.

We noted other matters involving compliance and internal control over financial reporting that wehave reported to the Board of Education of the Township of Bethlehem School District in aseparate Auditors' Management Report on Administrative Findings dated November 24,2014.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control andcompliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness ofthe entity's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performedin accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity's internal controland compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR STATE PROGRAM;REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE; AND REPORT

ON THE SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF STATE FINANCIALASSISTANCE REQUIRED BY NEW JERSEY OMB CIRCULAR 04-04

Honorable President and Membersof the Board of Education

Township of Bethlehem School DistrictCounty of Hunterdon, New Jersey

Report on Compliance for Each Major Program

We have audited the compliance of the Township of Bethlehem School District, in the County ofHunterdon, State of New Jersey, with the types of compliance requirements described in the NewJersey Compliance Manual "State Grant Compliance Supplement" that could have a direct andmaterial effect on each of Township of Bethlehem School District's major state programs for theyear ended June 30, 2014. The Township of Bethlehem School District's major state programsare identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule offindings and questioned costs.

Management's Responsibility

Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contractsand grants applicable to its state programs.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the Township of BethlehemSchool District's major state programs based on our audit of the types of compliancerequirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance withauditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable tofinancial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller Generalof the United States; audit requirements as prescribed by the Division of Finance, Department ofEducation, State of New Jersey; and New Jersey OMB Circular 04-04, Single Audit Policy forRecipients of Federal Grants and State Aid. Those standards and New Jersey OMB's Circular04-04, require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whethernoncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have adirect and material effect on a major state program occurred. An audit includes examining, on atest basis, evidence about the Township of Bethlehem School District's compliance with thoserequirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in thecircumstances. -124 -

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for eachmajor state program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination on the Townshipof Bethlehem School District's compliance.

Opinion on each Major State Program

In our opinion, the Township of Bethlehem School District complied, in all material respects,with the requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of itsmajor state programs for the year ended June 30, 2014.

Report on Internal Control Over Compliance

The management of the Township of Bethlehem School District is responsible for establishingand maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliancerequirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, weconsidered the Township of Bethlehem School District's internal control over compliance withthe types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major state programto determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose ofexpressing an opinion on compliance for each major state program and to test and report oninternal control over compliance in accordance with NJOMB Circular 04-04, but not for thepurpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance.Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Township of BethlehemSchool District's internal control over compliance.

A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a controlover compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performingtheir assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type ofcompliance requirement of a state program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internalcontrol over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control overcompliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type ofcompliance requirement of a state program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on atimely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or acombination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliancerequirement of a state program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control overcompliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of the internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose describedin the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internalcontrol over compliance that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did notidentify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be materialweaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope ofour testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based upon therequirements ofNJOMB Circular 04-04. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for anyother purpose.

BETHLEHEM TOWNSHIP SCHOOL DISTRICTNOTES TO THE SCHEDULES OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

JUNE 30, 2014

NOTE 1. GENERAL

The accompanying schedules of expenditures of awards and financial assistanceinclude state award activity of the Board of Education of the Bethlehem TownshipSchool District. The Board of Education is defined in Note l(A) to the Board'sgeneral-purpose financial statements (GASB 34 Model- basic financial statements).All state awards received directly from state agencies, as well as state assistancepassed through other government agencies are included on the schedule ofexpenditures of state financial assistance.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The accompanying schedules of expenditures of financial assistance are presented onthe budgetary basis of accounting. These bases of accounting are described in Note 1to the Board's basic financial statements. The information in this schedule ispresented in accordance with the requirements of OMB Circular A-B3, Audits ofStates, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations. Therefore, some amountspresented in this schedule may differ from amounts present in, or used in thepreparation of, the basic financial statements.

NOTE 3. RELATIONSHIP TO GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The basic financial statements present the general fund and special revenue fund on aGAAP basis. Budgetary comparison statements or schedules (RSI) are presented forthe general fund and special revenue fund to demonstrate finance-related legalcompliance in which certain revenue is permitted by law or grant agreement to berecognized in the audit year, whereas for GAAP reporting, revenue is not recognizeduntil the subsequent year or when expenditures have been made.

The general fund is presented in the accompanying schedules on the modified accrualbasis with the exception of the revenue recognition of the last state aid payment forcategorical aid and the payment of extraordinary aid. These payments are required bystate statute to be recorded as revenues on the budgetary basis, but do not meet thecriteria set forth in GASB Statement No. 33 for revenue recognition in financialstatements of the current period. For GAAP purposes, that payment is not recognizeduntil the subsequent budget year due to the state deferral and recording of the laststate aid payment in the subsequent year. The special revenue fund accompanyingschedules agree with amounts reported in the Board's general-purpose financialstatements. The general-purpose financial statements present the special revenuefund on both a GAAP basis and a budgetary basis. The special revenue fund ispresented in the accompanying schedules on the grant accounting budgetary basis,which recognizes encumbrances as expenditures and also recognizes the relatedrevenues, whereas the GAAP basis does not.

See Note 1 for a reconciliation of the budgetary basis to the GAAP basis ofaccounting for the special revenue fund. Award and financial assistance revenues arereported in the Board's general-purpose financial statements on a GAAP basis aspresented on the following page:
