General Long-Term Debt account group of the County (a primary government) and its component
units.
Component units are legally separate entities for which the County is considered to be financially
accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are in substance part of the
County's operations. Therefore, data from these units are combined with data of the primary
government. Discretely presented component units, on the other hand, are reported in a separate
column in the combined financial statements to emphasize they are legally separate from the County.
Each blended component unit discussed below has a June 30 year-end. The County has no discretely
presented component units.
Blended Component Units – A number of special districts and a nonprofit corporation have been
established within the County to serve unique needs. The special districts consist of various
improvement districts, and the non-profit corporation provides job training and educational services.
Although these special districts and the non-profit corporation are legally separate entities from the
County, the Board of Supervisors of the County serves as the Board of Directors of each of these
entities. Consequently, the financial data for these districts and the non-profit corporation are
blended with the data of the primary government and reported in the Special Revenue, Debt Service,
and Capital Projects Funds and the General Long-Term Debt Account Group of the County.
Separate financial statements of the blended component units are not prepared.
B. Fund Accounting
The County's accounts are maintained in accordance with the principles of fund accounting to ensure
that limitations and restrictions on the County's available resources are observed. The principles of
fund accounting require that resources be classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds
or account groups in accordance with the activities or objectives specified for those resources. Each
fund is considered a separate accounting entity, and its operations are accounted for in a separate set
of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and
expenditures. Account groups are reporting devices to account for certain assets and liabilities of the
governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds.

B. Fund Accounting (Cont’d)
Accounts are separately maintained for each fund and account group; however, in the accompanying
financial statements, funds that have similar characteristics have been combined into generic fund
types that are further classified into broad fund categories. A description of the County’s fund
categories, types, and account groups follows.
1. Governmental Funds account for the County's general government activities using the flow of
current financial resources measurement focus and include the following fund types.
The General Fund is the County's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of
the County, except those required to be accounted for in other funds.
The Special Revenue Funds account for specific revenue sources, other than major capital projects,
that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
The Debt Service Fund accounts for resources accumulated and used for the payment of general
long-term debt principal, interest, and related costs.
The Capital Projects Funds account for resources to be used for acquiring or constructing major
capital facilities.
2. Fiduciary Funds account for assets held by the County on behalf of others and include the
following fund types.
The Expendable Trust Fund is accounted for in essentially the same manner as the governmental
fund types, using the same measurement focus. Expendable trust funds account for assets where both
the principal and interest may be spent.
The Investment Trust Funds account for investments made by the County on behalf of other
governmental entities using the economic resources measurement focus.
The Agency Fund is custodial in nature and does not present results of operations or have a
measurement focus. This fund is used to account for assets that the government holds for others in an
agency capacity.
3. Account Groups are used to establish control and accountability for certain County assets and
liabilities that are not recorded in the funds and include the following group.
The General Long-Term Debt Account Group accounts for all of the County’s long-term obligations.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)
C. Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Governmental, Expendable Trust, and Agency Funds are presented
on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they become
measurable and available to finance current-period expenditures. Expenditures are recognized when
the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt that
are recognized when due. However, since debt service resources are provided during the current year
for payment of general long-term debt principal and interest due early in the following year, those
expenditures and related liabilities have been recognized in the Debt Service Fund.
Revenues susceptible to accrual prior to receipt are property taxes; special assessments; licenses and
permits; intergovernmental aid, grants, and reimbursements; interest revenue; charges for services;
and sales taxes collected and held by the State at year-end on the County’s behalf. Fines and forfeits
and miscellaneous revenues are not susceptible to accrual because generally they are not measurable
until received in cash.
The financial statements of the Investment Trust Funds are presented on the accrual basis of
accounting. Revenues are recognized when they are earned, and expenses are recognized when they
are incurred.
D. Budgeting and Budgetary Control
Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) requires the County to prepare and adopt a balanced budget
annually for each separate fund. The Board of Supervisors must approve such operating budgets on
or before the third Monday in July to allow sufficient time for the legal announcements and hearings
required for the adoption of the property tax levy on the third Monday in August. A.R.S. prohibit
expenditures or liabilities in excess of the amounts budgeted.
Essentially, the County prepares its budget on the same modified accrual basis of accounting used to
record actual revenues and expenditures.
The County has adopted budgets in accordance with the A.R.S. requirements for the General,
Special Revenue, Debt Service, and Capital Projects Funds. Formal budget integration is not
employed for the Expendable Trust Fund because effective budgetary control is alternatively
achieved through the terms of the trust agreement.
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the department level. Transfers of
appropriations between departments or from the contingency account to a department may be made
in an emergency and require approval by the Board of Supervisors. With the exception of the
General Fund, each fund includes only one department.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)
D. Budgeting and Budgetary Control (Cont’d)
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments to expend
monies are recorded to reserve that portion of the applicable fund balance, is employed as an
extension of formal budgetary control. Encumbrances outstanding at year-end for goods or services
that were not received before fiscal year-end are canceled. However, the County may draw warrants
against encumbered amounts for goods or services received but unpaid at June 30 for 60 days
immediately following the close of the fiscal year. After 60 days the remaining encumbered balances
lapse.
E. Investments
Nonparticipating interest-earning investment contracts are stated at cost. Money market investments
and participating interest-earning investment contracts with a remaining maturity of one year or less
at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. All other investments are stated at fair value.
F. Inventories
Inventories of the Governmental Funds consist of expendable supplies held for consumption and are
recorded as expenditures at the time of purchase. Amounts on hand at year-end are shown on the
balance sheet as an asset for informational purposes only and are offset by a fund balance reserve to
indicate that they do not constitute "available spendable resources." These inventories are stated at
cost using the first-in, first-out method.
G. Fixed Assets
Purchased fixed assets are recorded at the time of purchase as expenditures in the funds from which
the expenditures were made, but they are not capitalized in a General Fixed Assets Account Group.
H. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences consist of vacation leave and a calculated amount of sick leave earned by
employees based on services already rendered. Employees may accumulate up to 320 hours of
vacation depending on years of service, 50% of excess hours may be extended for 90 days, or 50%
may be transferred to sick leave, and the balance is forfeited. Upon termination of employment, all
unused and unforfeited vacation benefits are paid to employees. Accordingly, vacation benefits are
accrued as a liability in the financial statements.
Employees may accumulate an unlimited number of sick hours. Generally, sick leave benefits
provide for ordinary sick pay and are cumulative but are forfeited upon termination of employment.
Because sick leave benefits do not vest with employees, a liability for sick leave benefits is not
accrued in the financial statements. However, employees who retire with an accumulation of sick
leave in excess of 1000 hours are paid $750; but since this liability is immaterial, no accrual has been
made.

H. Compensated Absences (Cont’d)
The liability for vested compensated absences of the Governmental Funds is recorded in the General
Long-Term Debt Account Group since the amount expected to be paid from current financial
resources is not significant.
I. Investment Income
Investment income is composed of interest, dividends, and net changes in the fair value of applicable
investments.
J. Property Taxes
Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the fiscal year they are levied and collected or if they
are collected within 60 days subsequent to fiscal year-end. Property taxes not collected within 60
days subsequent to fiscal year-end or collected in advance of the fiscal year for which they are levied
are reported as deferred revenues.
K. Intergovernmental Grants and Aid
Grants and assistance awards made on the basis of entitlement periods are recorded as
intergovernmental receivables and revenues when entitlement occurs. Reimbursement grants are
recorded as intergovernmental receivables and revenues when the related expenditures are incurred.
Reimbursements not received within 60 days subsequent to the fiscal year-end are reported as
deferred revenues.

eligible depositories. The statutes require collateral for demand deposits, certificates of deposit, and
repurchase agreements at 101 percent of all deposits not covered by federal depository insurance.
County Treasurer’s Investment Pool – Arizona Revised Statutes require community colleges,
school districts, and other local governments to deposit certain public monies with the County

Note 10 – Landfill Closure and Postclosure Care Costs
State and federal laws and regulations require the County to place a final cover on its Lone Pine
landfill site when it stopped accepting waste and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring
functions at the site for 30 years after closure. The Lone Pine landfill closed for operations in June
of 1994. The closure and postclosure care costs were estimated and reported as a liability in the
General Long-Term Debt Account Group. The $17,366 reported as landfill closure and postclosure
care liability at June 30, 2001 is the cumulative amount reported to date, less payments thereon made
to date. These amounts are based on what it would cost to perform all closure and postclosure care in
fiscal year 2000-2001. The actual cost may be higher due to inflation, changes in technology, or
changes in regulations.
Note 11 – Risk Management
The County is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of
assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters; but was unable to obtain
insurance at a cost it considered to be economically justifiable. Therefore, the County joined and is
covered by two public entity risk pools; the Arizona Counties Property and Casualty Pool and the
Arizona Counties Workers' Compensation Pool, and it established the Employee Benefits Fund, all
of which are described below.
The Arizona Counties Property and Casualty Pool is a public entity risk pool currently composed of
11 member counties. The pool provides member counties catastrophic loss coverage for risks of loss
related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; and natural
disasters; and provides risk management services. Such coverage includes all defense costs as well
as the amount of any judgment or settlement. The County is responsible for paying a premium, based
on its exposure in relation to the exposure of the other participants, and a deductible of $25,000 for
each occurrence.

Note 11 – Risk Management - continued
The County is also responsible for any payments in excess of the maximum coverage of $101
million per occurrence for property claims and $12 million per occurrence for liability claims. A
County must participate in the pool at least three years after becoming a member; however, it may
withdraw after the initial three-year period. If the pool were to become insolvent, the County would
be assessed an additional contribution.
The Arizona Counties Workers’ Compensation Pool is a public entity risk pool currently composed
of 11 member counties. The pool provides member counties with workers' compensation coverage,
as required by law, and risk management services. The County is responsible for paying a premium,
based on an experience rating formula, that allocates pool expenditures and liabilities among the
members.
The Arizona Counties Property and Casualty Pool and the Arizona Counties Workers’
Compensation Pool receive independent audits annually and an audit by the Arizona Department of
Insurance triennially. Both pools accrue liabilities for losses that have been incurred but not reported.
These liabilities are determined annually based on an independent actuarial valuation.
The Employee Benefits Fund (a part of the General Fund) accounts for the financing of the
uninsured risk of loss for certain health benefits (comprehensive, major medical, dental) to eligible
employees and their dependents. Under this program, the Fund provides coverage for up to a
maximum of $40,000 for each claim. The Fund purchases commercial insurance for claims in excess
of this coverage. Settled claims did not exceed this commercial insurance coverage in any of the past
three fiscal years.
The insurance claims payable liability of the General Fund totaling $622,233 at June 30, 2001, is the
estimated ultimate cost of settling claims that have been reported but not settled and claims that have
been incurred but not reported. This estimate is based on actuarial estimates. Changes in the Fund's
claims payable liability amounts for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 2001were as follows:
2000 2001
Claims payable, beginning of year $ 358,778 $ 956,750
Current-year claims and changes in estimates 2,734,722 2,199,816
Claim payments (2,136,750) (2,534,333)
Claims payable, end of year $ 956,750 $ 622,233

Note 13 – Retirement Plans
Plan Descriptions – The County contributes to the three plans described below. Benefits are
established by state statute and generally provide retirement, death, long-term disability, survivor,
and health insurance premium benefits. In addition, the County contributes to the Elected Officials
Retirement Plan (EORP), which is not described due to the plan’s relative insignificance to the
County’s financial statements.
The Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS) administers a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined
benefit pension plan that covers general employees of the County. The ASRS is governed by the
Arizona State Retirement System Board according to the provisions of A.R.S. Title 38, Chapter 5,
Article 2.
The Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS) is an agent multiple-employer defined
benefit pension plan that covers public safety personnel who are regularly assigned to hazardous
duty as employees of the State of Arizona or one of its political subdivisions. The PSPRS, acting as a
common investment and administrative agent, is governed by a five-member board, known as The
Fund Manager, and 181 local boards according to the provisions of A.R.S. Title 38, Chapter 5,
Article 4.
The Corrections Officer Retirement Plan (CORP) is an agent multiple-employer defined benefit
pension plan that covers certain employees of the State of Arizona, Departments of Corrections and
Juvenile Corrections, and County employees whose primary duties require direct inmate contact.
The CORP is governed by The Fund Manager of PSPRS according to the provisions of A.R.S. Title
38, Chapter 5, Article 6.
Each plan issues a publicly available financial report that includes its financial statements and
required supplementary information. A report may be obtained by writing or calling the applicable
plan.

Funding Policy – The Arizona State Legislature establishes and may amend active plan members’
and the County’s contributions rates.
Cost-sharing plans – For the year ended June 30, 2001, active ASRS members and the County were
each required by statute to contribute at the actuarially determined rate of 2.66 percent (2.17 percent
retirement and 0.49 percent long-term disability) of the members’ annual covered payroll. The
County’s contributions to ASRS for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999 were $413,509,
$397,670, and $475,722, respectively, which were equal to the required contributions for the year.

Agent plans – For the year ended June 30, 2001, active PSPRS members were required by statute to
contribute 7.65 percent of the members’ annual covered payroll, and the County was required to
contribute at the actuarially determined rate of 2.56 percent. Active CORP members were required
by statute to contribute 8.5 percent of the members’ annual covered payroll, and the County was
required to contribute at the actuarially determined rate of 2.0 percent.
Annual Pension Cost – The County’s pension cost for the two agent plans for the year ended June
30, 2001, and the related information follow.
PSPRS CORP
Contribution rates:
County 2.56% 2.0%
Plan Members 7.65% 8.5%
Annual pension cost $131,276 $14,436
Contributions made $131,276 $14,436
The current-year annual required contributions for the PSPRS and CORP were determined as part of
their June 30, 1999 actuarial valuations using the entry-age actuarial cost method. The actuarial
assumptions included (a) 9 percent investment rate of return and (b) projected salary increases
ranging from 6.5 percent to 9.5 percent per year. Both (a) and (b) included an inflation component of
5.5 percent. The assumptions did not include cost-of-living adjustments. The actuarial value of assets
was determined using techniques that smooth the effects of short-term volatility in the market value
of investments over a 4-year period. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized at a
level percentage of projected payroll on an open basis. The remaining amortization period at June
30, 1999 was 20 years.

Note 14 – County Treasurer’s Investment Pool
Arizona Revised Statues require community colleges, school districts, and other local governments
to deposit certain public monies with the County Treasurer. The Treasurer has a fiduciary
responsibility to administer those and the County monies under his stewardship. The Treasurer
invests, on a pool basis, all idle monies not specifically invested for a fund or program. In addition,
the Treasurer determines the fair value of those pooled investments annually at June 30.
The County Treasurer’s investment pool is not registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as an investment company and there is no regulatory oversight of its operations. The
pool’s structure does not provide for shares and the County has not provided or obtained any legally
binding guarantees to support the value of the participants’ investments.

A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal
control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements in
amounts that would be material in relation to the general purpose financial statements being
audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course
of performing their assigned functions. Our consideration of internal control over financial
reporting would not necessarily disclose all such internal control matters that might be reportable
conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also
considered to be material weaknesses. However, of the reportable conditions described above, we
consider items 01-03 and 01-04 to be material weaknesses. We also noted other matters
involving internal control over financial reporting that we have reported to the management of the
County in a separate letter dated April 23, 2003.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members of the Arizona State

Internal Control over Compliance
The County’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal
control over compliance with requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable
to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the County’s internal
control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major
federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our
opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance
with OMB Circular A-133.
Our consideration of the internal control over compliance would not necessarily disclose all such
internal control matters that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in
which the design or operation of one or more internal control components does not reduce to a
relatively low level the risk that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grants that would be material in relation to a major federal program being audited
may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control over
compliance and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members of the Arizona State
Legislature, the Auditor General of the State of Arizona, the Board of Supervisors, federal
awarding agencies, and pass-through entities. It is not intended to be and should not be used by
anyone other than these specified parties. However, this report is matter of public record and its

Financial Statement Findings
01-01
The County Board of Supervisors failed
to approve budget transfers and amendments
Condition:
1. The County’s Board of Supervisors failed to formally approve transfers between
budget line items and, therefore, the County expended amounts in excess of
budgeted amounts within its General Fund.
2. The County’s Board of Supervisors failed to formally amend the County’s special
revenue budget when it received grant awards after its final budget was approved
and, therefore, the County expended amounts in excess of its final budget.
Effect: The County was out of compliance with Arizona Revised Statute (A.R.S.)
42-17106.
Recommendation: To comply with A.R.S. 42-17106, the County’s Board of Supervisors
should formally approve all County budget transfers and amendments by a majority vote.
01-02
The County failed to submit the Annual
Expenditure Limitation Report to the
Auditor General of the State of Arizona
Condition: The County failed to submit its Annual Expenditure Limitation Reports to the
Auditor General of the State of Arizona by February 28, following the fiscal years ended
June 30, 2000 and 2001.
Effect: The County was out of compliance with Arizona Revised Statute (A.R.S.)
41-1279.07(c).
Recommendation: To comply with A.R.S. 41-1279.07(c), the County should submit the
reports required by the Uniform Expenditure Reporting System to the Auditor General by
February 28, following each fiscal year-end.

General fixed assets
Condition: The County’s general fixed assets system of accountability was inadequate, as
evidenced by the weaknesses in the County’s internal control over them set forth below.
Existing records did not provide adequate information to present general fixed assets in the
County’s financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. The deficiencies noted below are considered to be material weaknesses.
1. The County did not maintain a general fixed assets listing. In addition, a physical
inventory of fixed assets has not been taken in the last ten years.
Criteria: The County’s general fixed assets policies and procedures should be in compliance
with the Uniform Accounting Manual for Arizona Counties (UAMAC).
Effect: Because of the lack of adequate internal control over them, general fixed assets have not
been safeguarded against improper or unauthorized use.
Recommendation: To comply with the requirements of the Uniform Accounting Manual for
Arizona Counties (UAMAC) § VI-E, the County should prepare and maintain a complete
and accurate listing of land, buildings, and related improvements costing $5,000 or more,
and machinery and equipment items with unit costs of $1,000 or more, and with useful lives
longer than one year. The listing should include the following for each item:
a. Location
b. Identification number for furniture, equipment, and vehicles (tag number, serial
number, or other number that specifically identifies the item)
c. Description
d. Method of acquisition (purchase, construction, trade, lease-purchase, or donation)
e. Source of funding
f. Acquisition date (month and year)
g. Purchase document number
h. Cost
Actual costs, including ancillary costs such as sales tax, freight, and installation costs,
should be used to record assets, and supporting documentation should be retained for these
costs. If actual cost information is not available, the County may record purchased assets at
estimated historical cost. Estimated fair market value at the date of acquisition should be
used to record the cost of donated assets. Documentation, such as contracts, catalogs,
working paper calculations, and the minutes of Board of Supervisors’ meetings, should be
retained to support estimated cost information.

In addition, to help ensure compliance with the requirements of the UAMAC § VI-E, the

general fixed assets listing.

County Treasurer was inadequate, as evidenced by the internal control weakness set forth
below.
1. The County failed to reconcile its cash and investments balances in the general
ledger to the amounts recorded by the County Treasurer monthly or at year-end
in a timely manner.
Criteria: Cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer for each County
fund must be reconciled on a timely basis to the amounts recorded by the County
Treasurer each month.
Effect:
1. The County’s assets were not properly safeguarded.
2. The County was unable to prepare its financial statements in a timely manner.
3. Several audit and post-closing adjustments were necessary to properly state the
County’s financial statements.
Recommendation: The County’s management and Board of Supervisors should have
reliable, informative, and timely financial information to effectively manage the County’s
finances and operations. However, due to difficulties encountered during the County
Treasurer’s implementation of a new accounting system the County was unable to
properly compile, reconcile, and review financial data required for timely completion of
financial statements and other required reports. The County should review its policies and
procedures and accounting system to ensure that cash and investments on deposit with
the County Treasurer are reconciled monthly.

General fixed assets
Contact Person: Joan Mickle, Accounting Supervisor
Phone Number (928) 524-4038
Anticipated completion date: December 31, 2003
Recommendation: To comply with the requirements of the Uniform Accounting Manual for
Arizona Counties (UAMAC) §VI-E, the County should prepare and maintain a complete
and accurate listing of land, buildings, and related improvements costing $5,000 or more,
and machinery and equipment items with unit costs of $1,000 or more, and with useful lives
longer than one year. The listing should include the following for each item:
a. Location
b. Identification number for furniture, equipment, and vehicles (tag number, serial
number, or other number that specifically identifies the item)
c. Description
d. Method of acquisition (purchase, construction, trade, lease-purchase, or donation)
e. Source of funding
f. Acquisition date (month and year)
g. Purchase document number
h. Cost
Actual costs, including ancillary costs such as sales tax, freight, and installation costs,
should be used to record assets, and supporting documentation should be retained for these
costs. If actual cost information is not available, the County may record purchased assets at
estimated historical cost. Estimated fair market value at the date of acquisition should be
used to record the cost of donated assets. Documentation, such as contracts, catalogs,
working paper calculations, and the minutes of Board of Supervisors' meetings, should be
retained to support estimated cost information.

General fixed assets (Cont’d)
In addition, to help ensure compliance with the requirements of the UAMAC § VI-E, the
County should take a physical inventory at least every two years of fixed assets
purchased with federal monies and every three years of all other fixed assets, and
reconcile it to the general fixed assets listing.
Actions taken: Navajo County has recently purchased a new accounting package. This
package includes a General Fixed Assets program, using bar codes. It is our intention to
have our general fixed assets listing completed by December 31, 2003. However, we do
have our entire inventory written up and balanced through December 31, 1998. From
January 1, 1999 to current we have all of the inventory written up, but it remains to be
balanced. This project is being worked on currently.
01-04

finances and operations. However, due to difficulties encountered during the County
Treasurer’s implementation of a new accounting system the County was unable to

General to bring its cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer
reconciliations up to date, and the reconciliations are now current.

A summary of the County's more significant accounting policies follows. The County's major operations include general government, public safety, highway and street maintenance and construction, sanitation, health, welfare, culture and recreation, and education. A. Reporting Entity The County is a general purpose local government that is governed by a separately elected board of five county supervisors. These general purpose financial statements present all the fund types and the General Long-Term Debt account group of the County (a primary government) and its component units. Component units are legally separate entities for which the County is considered to be financially accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are in substance part of the County's operations. Therefore, data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Discretely presented component units, on the other hand, are reported in a separate column in the combined financial statements to emphasize they are legally separate from the County. Each blended component unit discussed below has a June 30 year-end. The County has no discretely presented component units. Blended Component Units – A number of special districts and a nonprofit corporation have been established within the County to serve unique needs. The special districts consist of various improvement districts, and the non-profit corporation provides job training and educational services. Although these special districts and the non-profit corporation are legally separate entities from the County, the Board of Supervisors of the County serves as the Board of Directors of each of these entities. Consequently, the financial data for these districts and the non-profit corporation are blended with the data of the primary government and reported in the Special Revenue, Debt Service, and Capital Projects Funds and the General Long-Term Debt Account Group of the County. Separate financial statements of the blended component units are not prepared. B. Fund Accounting The County's accounts are maintained in accordance with the principles of fund accounting to ensure that limitations and restrictions on the County's available resources are observed. The principles of fund accounting require that resources be classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds or account groups in accordance with the activities or objectives specified for those resources. Each fund is considered a separate accounting entity, and its operations are accounted for in a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures. Account groups are reporting devices to account for certain assets and liabilities of the governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds. NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 14 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont'd) B. Fund Accounting (Cont’d) Accounts are separately maintained for each fund and account group; however, in the accompanying financial statements, funds that have similar characteristics have been combined into generic fund types that are further classified into broad fund categories. A description of the County’s fund categories, types, and account groups follows. 1. Governmental Funds account for the County's general government activities using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus and include the following fund types. The General Fund is the County's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the County, except those required to be accounted for in other funds. The Special Revenue Funds account for specific revenue sources, other than major capital projects, that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. The Debt Service Fund accounts for resources accumulated and used for the payment of general long-term debt principal, interest, and related costs. The Capital Projects Funds account for resources to be used for acquiring or constructing major capital facilities. 2. Fiduciary Funds account for assets held by the County on behalf of others and include the following fund types. The Expendable Trust Fund is accounted for in essentially the same manner as the governmental fund types, using the same measurement focus. Expendable trust funds account for assets where both the principal and interest may be spent. The Investment Trust Funds account for investments made by the County on behalf of other governmental entities using the economic resources measurement focus. The Agency Fund is custodial in nature and does not present results of operations or have a measurement focus. This fund is used to account for assets that the government holds for others in an agency capacity. 3. Account Groups are used to establish control and accountability for certain County assets and liabilities that are not recorded in the funds and include the following group. The General Long-Term Debt Account Group accounts for all of the County’s long-term obligations. NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 15 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d) C. Basis of Accounting The financial statements of the Governmental, Expendable Trust, and Agency Funds are presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available to finance current-period expenditures. Expenditures are recognized when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt that are recognized when due. However, since debt service resources are provided during the current year for payment of general long-term debt principal and interest due early in the following year, those expenditures and related liabilities have been recognized in the Debt Service Fund. Revenues susceptible to accrual prior to receipt are property taxes; special assessments; licenses and permits; intergovernmental aid, grants, and reimbursements; interest revenue; charges for services; and sales taxes collected and held by the State at year-end on the County’s behalf. Fines and forfeits and miscellaneous revenues are not susceptible to accrual because generally they are not measurable until received in cash. The financial statements of the Investment Trust Funds are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when they are earned, and expenses are recognized when they are incurred. D. Budgeting and Budgetary Control Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) requires the County to prepare and adopt a balanced budget annually for each separate fund. The Board of Supervisors must approve such operating budgets on or before the third Monday in July to allow sufficient time for the legal announcements and hearings required for the adoption of the property tax levy on the third Monday in August. A.R.S. prohibit expenditures or liabilities in excess of the amounts budgeted. Essentially, the County prepares its budget on the same modified accrual basis of accounting used to record actual revenues and expenditures. The County has adopted budgets in accordance with the A.R.S. requirements for the General, Special Revenue, Debt Service, and Capital Projects Funds. Formal budget integration is not employed for the Expendable Trust Fund because effective budgetary control is alternatively achieved through the terms of the trust agreement. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the department level. Transfers of appropriations between departments or from the contingency account to a department may be made in an emergency and require approval by the Board of Supervisors. With the exception of the General Fund, each fund includes only one department. NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 16 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d) D. Budgeting and Budgetary Control (Cont’d) Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments to expend monies are recorded to reserve that portion of the applicable fund balance, is employed as an extension of formal budgetary control. Encumbrances outstanding at year-end for goods or services that were not received before fiscal year-end are canceled. However, the County may draw warrants against encumbered amounts for goods or services received but unpaid at June 30 for 60 days immediately following the close of the fiscal year. After 60 days the remaining encumbered balances lapse. E. Investments Nonparticipating interest-earning investment contracts are stated at cost. Money market investments and participating interest-earning investment contracts with a remaining maturity of one year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. All other investments are stated at fair value. F. Inventories Inventories of the Governmental Funds consist of expendable supplies held for consumption and are recorded as expenditures at the time of purchase. Amounts on hand at year-end are shown on the balance sheet as an asset for informational purposes only and are offset by a fund balance reserve to indicate that they do not constitute "available spendable resources." These inventories are stated at cost using the first-in, first-out method. G. Fixed Assets Purchased fixed assets are recorded at the time of purchase as expenditures in the funds from which the expenditures were made, but they are not capitalized in a General Fixed Assets Account Group. H. Compensated Absences Compensated absences consist of vacation leave and a calculated amount of sick leave earned by employees based on services already rendered. Employees may accumulate up to 320 hours of vacation depending on years of service, 50% of excess hours may be extended for 90 days, or 50% may be transferred to sick leave, and the balance is forfeited. Upon termination of employment, all unused and unforfeited vacation benefits are paid to employees. Accordingly, vacation benefits are accrued as a liability in the financial statements. Employees may accumulate an unlimited number of sick hours. Generally, sick leave benefits provide for ordinary sick pay and are cumulative but are forfeited upon termination of employment. Because sick leave benefits do not vest with employees, a liability for sick leave benefits is not accrued in the financial statements. However, employees who retire with an accumulation of sick leave in excess of 1000 hours are paid $750; but since this liability is immaterial, no accrual has been made. NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 17 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d) H. Compensated Absences (Cont’d) The liability for vested compensated absences of the Governmental Funds is recorded in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group since the amount expected to be paid from current financial resources is not significant. I. Investment Income Investment income is composed of interest, dividends, and net changes in the fair value of applicable investments. J. Property Taxes Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the fiscal year they are levied and collected or if they are collected within 60 days subsequent to fiscal year-end. Property taxes not collected within 60 days subsequent to fiscal year-end or collected in advance of the fiscal year for which they are levied are reported as deferred revenues. K. Intergovernmental Grants and Aid Grants and assistance awards made on the basis of entitlement periods are recorded as intergovernmental receivables and revenues when entitlement occurs. Reimbursement grants are recorded as intergovernmental receivables and revenues when the related expenditures are incurred. Reimbursements not received within 60 days subsequent to the fiscal year-end are reported as deferred revenues.

The Lone Pine landfill closed for operations in June of 1994. The closure and postclosure care costs were estimated and reported as a liability in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group. The $17,366 reported as landfill closure and postclosure care liability at June 30, 2001 is the cumulative amount reported to date, less payments thereon made to date. These amounts are based on what it would cost to perform all closure and postclosure care in fiscal year 2000-2001. The actual cost may be higher due to inflation, changes in technology, or changes in regulations. Note 11 – Risk Management The County is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters; but was unable to obtain insurance at a cost it considered to be economically justifiable. Therefore, the County joined and is covered by two public entity risk pools; the Arizona Counties Property and Casualty Pool and the Arizona Counties Workers' Compensation Pool, and it established the Employee Benefits Fund, all of which are described below. The Arizona Counties Property and Casualty Pool is a public entity risk pool currently composed of 11 member counties. The pool provides member counties catastrophic loss coverage for risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; and natural disasters; and provides risk management services. Such coverage includes all defense costs as well as the amount of any judgment or settlement. The County is responsible for paying a premium, based on its exposure in relation to the exposure of the other participants, and a deductible of $25,000 for each occurrence. NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 27 Note 11 – Risk Management - continued The County is also responsible for any payments in excess of the maximum coverage of $101 million per occurrence for property claims and $12 million per occurrence for liability claims. A County must participate in the pool at least three years after becoming a member; however, it may withdraw after the initial three-year period. If the pool were to become insolvent, the County would be assessed an additional contribution. The Arizona Counties Workers’ Compensation Pool is a public entity risk pool currently composed of 11 member counties. The pool provides member counties with workers' compensation coverage, as required by law, and risk management services. The County is responsible for paying a premium, based on an experience rating formula, that allocates pool expenditures and liabilities among the members. The Arizona Counties Property and Casualty Pool and the Arizona Counties Workers’ Compensation Pool receive independent audits annually and an audit by the Arizona Department of Insurance triennially. Both pools accrue liabilities for losses that have been incurred but not reported. These liabilities are determined annually based on an independent actuarial valuation. The Employee Benefits Fund (a part of the General Fund) accounts for the financing of the uninsured risk of loss for certain health benefits (comprehensive, major medical, dental) to eligible employees and their dependents. Under this program, the Fund provides coverage for up to a maximum of $40,000 for each claim. The Fund purchases commercial insurance for claims in excess of this coverage. Settled claims did not exceed this commercial insurance coverage in any of the past three fiscal years. The insurance claims payable liability of the General Fund totaling $622,233 at June 30, 2001, is the estimated ultimate cost of settling claims that have been reported but not settled and claims that have been incurred but not reported. This estimate is based on actuarial estimates. Changes in the Fund's claims payable liability amounts for the years ended June 30, 2000 and 2001were as follows: 2000 2001 Claims payable, beginning of year $ 358,778 $ 956,750 Current-year claims and changes in estimates 2,734,722 2,199,816 Claim payments (2,136,750) (2,534,333) Claims payable, end of year $ 956,750 $ 622,233 NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 28 Note 12 – Changes in Long-Term Liabilities A summary of changes in the liabilities reported in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group follows.

Benefits are established by state statute and generally provide retirement, death, long-term disability, survivor, and health insurance premium benefits. In addition, the County contributes to the Elected Officials Retirement Plan (EORP), which is not described due to the plan’s relative insignificance to the County’s financial statements. The Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS) administers a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan that covers general employees of the County. The ASRS is governed by the Arizona State Retirement System Board according to the provisions of A.R.S. Title 38, Chapter 5, Article 2. The Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS) is an agent multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan that covers public safety personnel who are regularly assigned to hazardous duty as employees of the State of Arizona or one of its political subdivisions. The PSPRS, acting as a common investment and administrative agent, is governed by a five-member board, known as The Fund Manager, and 181 local boards according to the provisions of A.R.S. Title 38, Chapter 5, Article 4. The Corrections Officer Retirement Plan (CORP) is an agent multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan that covers certain employees of the State of Arizona, Departments of Corrections and Juvenile Corrections, and County employees whose primary duties require direct inmate contact. The CORP is governed by The Fund Manager of PSPRS according to the provisions of A.R.S. Title 38, Chapter 5, Article 6. Each plan issues a publicly available financial report that includes its financial statements and required supplementary information. A report may be obtained by writing or calling the applicable plan. ASRS PSPRS and CORP 3300 N. Central Ave. 1020 E. Missouri Ave. P.O.

Cost-sharing plans – For the year ended June 30, 2001, active ASRS members and the County were each required by statute to contribute at the actuarially determined rate of 2.66 percent (2.17 percent retirement and 0.49 percent long-term disability) of the members’ annual covered payroll. The County’s contributions to ASRS for the years ended June 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999 were $413,509, $397,670, and $475,722, respectively, which were equal to the required contributions for the year. NAVAJO COUNTY, ARIZONA Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2001 30 Note 13 – Retirement Plans - continued Agent plans – For the year ended June 30, 2001, active PSPRS members were required by statute to contribute 7.65 percent of the members’ annual covered payroll, and the County was required to contribute at the actuarially determined rate of 2.56 percent. Active CORP members were required by statute to contribute 8.5 percent of the members’ annual covered payroll, and the County was required to contribute at the actuarially determined rate of 2.0 percent. Annual Pension Cost – The County’s pension cost for the two agent plans for the year ended June 30, 2001, and the related information follow.

The actuarial assumptions included (a) 9 percent investment rate of return and (b) projected salary increases ranging from 6.5 percent to 9.5 percent per year. Both (a) and (b) included an inflation component of 5.5 percent. The assumptions did not include cost-of-living adjustments. The actuarial value of assets was determined using techniques that smooth the effects of short-term volatility in the market value of investments over a 4-year period.

The information in this report is presented in accordance with the requirements of OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Therefore, some amounts presented in this schedule may differ from amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of, the financial statements. Note 2 – Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Numbers The program titles and CFDA numbers were obtained from federal or pass-through grantors or the 2001 Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Update. 36 Page Two A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the general purpose financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all such internal control matters that might be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses. However, of the reportable conditions described above, we consider items 01-03 and 01-04 to be material weaknesses. We also noted other matters involving internal control over financial reporting that we have reported to the management of the County in a separate letter dated April 23, 2003. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members of the Arizona State Legislature, the Auditor General of the State of Arizona, the Board of Supervisors, federal awarding agencies, and pass-through entities. It is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. However, this report is a matter of public record and its distribution is not limited. April 23, 2003 38 Page Two Internal Control over Compliance The County’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the County’s internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133. Our consideration of the internal control over compliance would not necessarily disclose all such internal control matters that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants that would be material in relation to a major federal program being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control over compliance and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members of the Arizona State Legislature, the Auditor General of the State of Arizona, the Board of Supervisors, federal awarding agencies, and pass-through entities. It is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. However, this report is matter of public record and its distribution is not limited.

X ___ 41 NAVAJO COUNTY Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Year Ended June 30, 2001 Financial Statement Findings 01-01 The County Board of Supervisors failed to approve budget transfers and amendments Condition: 1. The County’s Board of Supervisors failed to formally approve transfers between budget line items and, therefore, the County expended amounts in excess of budgeted amounts within its General Fund. 2. The County’s Board of Supervisors failed to formally amend the County’s special revenue budget when it received grant awards after its final budget was approved and, therefore, the County expended amounts in excess of its final budget. Effect: The County was out of compliance with Arizona Revised Statute (A.R.S.) 42-17106. Recommendation: To comply with A.R.S. 42-17106, the County’s Board of Supervisors should formally approve all County budget transfers and amendments by a majority vote. 01-02 The County failed to submit the Annual Expenditure Limitation Report to the Auditor General of the State of Arizona Condition: The County failed to submit its Annual Expenditure Limitation Reports to the Auditor General of the State of Arizona by February 28, following the fiscal years ended June 30, 2000 and 2001. Effect: The County was out of compliance with Arizona Revised Statute (A.R.S.) 41-1279.07(c). Recommendation: To comply with A.R.S. 41-1279.07(c), the County should submit the reports required by the Uniform Expenditure Reporting System to the Auditor General by February 28, following each fiscal year-end. 42 NAVAJO COUNTY Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Year Ended June 30, 2001 01-03 General fixed assets Condition: The County’s general fixed assets system of accountability was inadequate, as evidenced by the weaknesses in the County’s internal control over them set forth below. Existing records did not provide adequate information to present general fixed assets in the County’s financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The deficiencies noted below are considered to be material weaknesses. 1. The County did not maintain a general fixed assets listing. In addition, a physical inventory of fixed assets has not been taken in the last ten years. Criteria: The County’s general fixed assets policies and procedures should be in compliance with the Uniform Accounting Manual for Arizona Counties (UAMAC). Effect: Because of the lack of adequate internal control over them, general fixed assets have not been safeguarded against improper or unauthorized use. Recommendation: To comply with the requirements of the Uniform Accounting Manual for Arizona Counties (UAMAC) § VI-E, the County should prepare and maintain a complete and accurate listing of land, buildings, and related improvements costing $5,000 or more, and machinery and equipment items with unit costs of $1,000 or more, and with useful lives longer than one year. The listing should include the following for each item: a. Location b. Identification number for furniture, equipment, and vehicles (tag number, serial number, or other number that specifically identifies the item) c. Description d. Method of acquisition (purchase, construction, trade, lease-purchase, or donation) e. Source of funding f. Acquisition date (month and year) g. Purchase document number h. Cost Actual costs, including ancillary costs such as sales tax, freight, and installation costs, should be used to record assets, and supporting documentation should be retained for these costs. If actual cost information is not available, the County may record purchased assets at estimated historical cost. Estimated fair market value at the date of acquisition should be used to record the cost of donated assets. Documentation, such as contracts, catalogs, working paper calculations, and the minutes of Board of Supervisors’ meetings, should be retained to support estimated cost information. 43 NAVAJO COUNTY Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Year Ended June 30, 2001 01-03 General fixed assets (Cont’d) In addition, to help ensure compliance with the requirements of the UAMAC § VI-E, the County should take a physical inventory at least every two years of fixed assets purchased with federal monies and every three years of all other fixed assets, and reconcile it to the general fixed assets listing. 01-04 Reconciliations of cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer Condition: The County’s accountability over cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer was inadequate, as evidenced by the internal control weakness set forth below. 1. The County failed to reconcile its cash and investments balances in the general ledger to the amounts recorded by the County Treasurer monthly or at year-end in a timely manner. Criteria: Cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer for each County fund must be reconciled on a timely basis to the amounts recorded by the County Treasurer each month. Effect: 1. The County’s assets were not properly safeguarded. 2. The County was unable to prepare its financial statements in a timely manner. 3. Several audit and post-closing adjustments were necessary to properly state the County’s financial statements. Recommendation: The County’s management and Board of Supervisors should have reliable, informative, and timely financial information to effectively manage the County’s finances and operations. However, due to difficulties encountered during the County Treasurer’s implementation of a new accounting system the County was unable to properly compile, reconcile, and review financial data required for timely completion of financial statements and other required reports. The County should review its policies and procedures and accounting system to ensure that cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer are reconciled monthly. 44 NAVAJO COUNTY Schedule of Findings and Questioned Year Ended June 30, 2001 Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs 01-101 CFDA No.: 93.563 Child Support Enforcement U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Pass-through Entity: Arizona Department of Health Services Award Year: October 1, 1999 through September 30, 2000 and October 1, 2000 through September 30, 2001. Award Numbers: E7206017 and E7201017 QuestionedCost:N/A Condition: As a result of testing monthly financial reports, it was determined that ten of twelve reports were submitted late to the Arizona Department of Health Services. Criteria: Per the Child Support Enforcement reporting requirements, monthly financial reports are required to be submitted 28 days following the end of the month in which the County incurs the expenditures. Effect: The Arizona Department of Health and Human Services may reduce contract incentives pursuant to the grant agreement’s performance standards. Recommendation: To help ensure compliance with reporting requirements, the County should implement policies and procedures to ensure that the Child Support Enforcement financial information is compiled monthly to enable the finance department to complete the monthly financial reports in a timely manner. 45 April 23, 2003 Debbie Davenport Auditor General 2910 N. 44th Street, Suite 410 Phoenix, AZ 85018 Dear Ms. Davenport: The accompanying corrective action plan has been prepared as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133.

The listing should include the following for each item: a. Location b.

Documentation, such as contracts, catalogs, working paper calculations, and the minutes of Board of Supervisors' meetings, should be retained to support estimated cost information. 48 NAVAJO COUNTY Corrective Action Plan Year Ended June 30, 2001 01-03 General fixed assets (Cont’d) In addition, to help ensure compliance with the requirements of the UAMAC § VI-E, the County should take a physical inventory at least every two years of fixed assets purchased with federal monies and every three years of all other fixed assets, and reconcile it to the general fixed assets listing. Actions taken: Navajo County has recently purchased a new accounting package. This package includes a General Fixed Assets program, using bar codes. It is our intention to have our general fixed assets listing completed by December 31, 2003. However, we do have our entire inventory written up and balanced through December 31, 1998. From January 1, 1999 to current we have all of the inventory written up, but it remains to be balanced. This project is being worked on currently. 01-04 Reconciliations of cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer Contact Person: Joan Mickle, Accounting Supervisor Phone Number (928) 524-4038 Completed Recommendation: The County’s management and Board of Supervisors should have reliable, informative, and timely financial information to effectively manage the County’s finances and operations. However, due to difficulties encountered during the County Treasurer’s implementation of a new accounting system the County was unable to properly compile, reconcile, and review financial data required for timely completion of financial statements and other required reports. The County should review its policies and procedures and accounting system to ensure that cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer are reconciled monthly. Action taken: The County has worked with members of the staff of the Arizona Auditor General to bring its cash and investments on deposit with the County Treasurer reconciliations up to date, and the reconciliations are now current. 49 NAVAJO COUNTY Corrective Action Plan Year Ended June 30, 2001 Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs 01-101 CFDA No.: 93.563 Child Support Enforcement Contact Person: Joan Mickle, Accounting Supervisor Phone Number (928) 524-4038 Anticipated completion date: December 31, 2003 Recommendation: To help ensure compliance with reporting requirements, the County should implement policies and procedures to ensure that the Child Support Enforcement financial information is compiled monthly to enable the finance department to complete the monthly financial reports in a timely manner.
