VILLAGE OF REEVES. LOUISIANA

Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued)

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Village's annual report includes two government-wide financial statements These statements provide both long-term and short-term information about the Village's overall financial status Financial reporting at this level uses a perspective similar to that found in the private sector with its basis in accrual accounting and elimination or reclassification of activities between funds

The first of these government-wide statements is the Statement of Net Position This is the government-wide statement of position presenting information that includes all of the Village's assets, plus deferred outflows of resources, less liabilities, less deferred inflows of resources with the difference reported as net position Over time, increases or decreases m net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the Village as a whole is improving or deteriorating Evaluation of the overall health of the Village would extend to other nonfinancial factors such as diversification of the taxpayer base, or the condition of Village infrastructure in addition to the financial information provided in this report

The second government-wide statement is the Statement of Activities, which reports how the Village's net position changed during the current fiscal year All current year revenues and expenses are included regardless of when cash is received or paid An important purpose of the design of the statement of activities is to show the financial reliance of the Village's distinct activities or functions on revenues provided by the Village's taxpayers

Both government-wide financial statements distinguish governmental activities of the Village and from business-type activities that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges Governmental activities include principally general government and public safety Business-type activities include the sewer system

The government-wide financial statements are presented on pages 15 and 16 of this report

FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A fund IS an accountability unit used to maintain control over resources segregated for specific activities or objectives The Village uses funds to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related laws and regulations Within the basic financial statements, fund financial statements focus on the Village's most significant funds rather than the Village as a whole Major funds are separately reported while all others are combined into a single, aggregated presentation

The Village has two kinds of funds

Governmental funds are reported in the fund financial statements and encompass the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements However, the focus is very different with fund statements providing a distinctive view of the Village's governmental funds These statements report short-term fiscal accountability focusing on the use of spendable resources and balances of spendable resources available at the end of the year They are useful in evaluating annual financing requirements of governmental programs and the commitment of spendable resources for the near-term

VILLAGE OF REEVES. LOUISIANA

Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued)

Since the government-wide focus includes the long-term view, compansons between these two perspectives may provide insight into the long-term impact of short-term financing decisions Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund operating statement provide a reconciliation to assist in understanding the differences between these two perspectives The basic governmental fund financial statements are presented on pages 19 through 23 of this report

Propnetary funds are reported in the fund financial statements and generally report services for which the Village charges customers a fee The one Village propnetary fund is classified as an enterpnse fund This enterpnse fund essentially encompasses the same functions reported as business-type activities in the government-wide statements Services are provided to customers external to the Village organization for sewer utilities The basic enterpnse fund financial statements are presented on pages 24 through 26 of this report

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying notes to the financial statements provide information essential to a full understanding of the government-wide and fund financial statements The notes to the financial statements begin on page 27 of this report

OTHER INFORMATION

In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplemental information concerning the Village's budget presentations Budgetary companson statements are included as "required supplemental information" for the general fund These statements and schedules demonstrate compliance with the Village's adopted and final revised budget Required supplemental information can be found on page 39 of this report

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT

OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

November 14, 2013

The Honorable Scott Walker, Mayor and the Board of Councilmen

Village of Reeves, Louisiana

We have audited, in accordance v ith auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities and each major fund of the Village of Reeves, Louisiana, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements, v /hich collectively comprise the Village of Reeves, Louisiana's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated November 14, 2013.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit, v /e considered the Village of Reeves, Louisiana's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Village of Reeves, Louisiana's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Village's internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility 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 a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies were not identified. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Village of Reeves, Louisiana's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions 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 required to be reported under Govemmenf Auditing Standards

Purpose of This Report

The purpose of this report is solely to descnbe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control or on compliance This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considenng the entity's internal control and compliance Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose Under Louisiana Revised Statute 24 513, this report is distnbuted by the Legislative Auditor as a public document
