INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Board of School Directors

Dallastown Area School District

Dallastown, Pennsylvania

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type

activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Dallastown Area School

District, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements,

which collectively comprise the District’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

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.

Auditor’s 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 auditor’s judgment, including the

assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation

and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in

the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s

internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the

appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates

made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our

audit opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the

respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund,

and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Dallastown Area School District, as of June 30,

2013, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the

year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of

America.

Emphasis of Matter

As described in Note 1, Dallastown Area School District has implemented a reporting model to account

for deferred inflows of resources, deferred outflows of resources, and net position as required by the

provisions of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) Statement 63, Financial

Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position, and

GASB 65, Items Previously Recognized as Assets and Liabilities, as of July 1, 2012. Our opinions on

these statements are not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Matters

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s

Discussion and Analysis on pages 4 through 32 and the required supplementary information as listed in

the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information,

although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting

Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic

financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied

certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing

standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of

management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for

consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other

knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion

or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with

sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively

comprise the Dallastown Area School District’s basic financial statements. The Schedules of Revenues

and Other Financing Sources - Budget to Actual, Schedules of Expenditures and Other Financing Uses

Budget to Actual, and the Statement of Changes in Assets and Liabilities - Fiduciary Fund - Student

Activities Agency Fund, listed in the table of contents as Supplementary Information are presented for

purposes of additional analysis and are not required parts of the basic financial statements. The

accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, as required by the U.S. Office of

Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit

Organizations, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic

financial statements.

Page 6: DALLASTOWN AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT FINANCIAL REPORT … · Budget to Actual 76 - 77 Schedules of Expenditures and Other Financing Uses - Budget to Actual 78 - 81 Statement of Changes

3

Such supplementary information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates

directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements.

Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial

statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information

directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to

the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing

standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly

stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated November 12,

2013 on our consideration of the Dallastown Area School District's internal control over financial

reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and

grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of

internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide

an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of

an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering Dallastown Area

School District’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

JUNE 30, 2013

4

The Dallastown Area School District’s discussion and analysis provides an overview of the District’s

financial performance for fiscal years ended on June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013. The intent of the

Management Discussion and Analysis (MDA) is to look at the District’s financial performance as a

whole. Please read it in conjunction with the District’s financial statements and notes to the financial

statements, which immediately follow this section.

The MDA is a component of the new reporting model prescribed by the Governmental Accounting

Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34 - Basic Financial Statements - and Management’s Discussion

and Analysis - for State and Local Governments issued in June 1999.

The Dallastown Area School District adopted GASB Statement No. 34 for fiscal year ended 2003 and

GASB Statement No. 54 - Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions for fiscal

year ended 2011.

The Dallastown Area School District also adopted GASB Statement No. 63 - Financial Reporting of

Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position and GASB Statement

No. 65 - Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities for fiscal year ended 2013.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

For fiscal year ended 2013, the Board of School Directors adopted a balanced General Fund budget with

the utilization of $1.045 million of fund balance. The millage rate remained the same for 2013 as it was

for 2011 and 2012, which is 22.26. The actual results of operation showed that actual expenditures were

approximately 2% less than budget and that actual revenues were approximately 1% less than budget.

At June 30, 2013, the Governmental Activities total net position was $52.162 million of which $10.356

million was unrestricted and available to meet the District’s ongoing obligations to employees and

creditors. This amount indicates that the District has a strong financial condition.

The Governmental Activities total net position increased $1.075 million from $51.087 million in 2012 to

$52.162 million in 2013. Refer to the section Financial Analysis of the District as a Whole for

explanations regarding the net position increase.

At June 30, 2013, the total fund balance for the General Fund was $13.017 million. Of the $13.017

million, $41 thousand was allocated as nonspendable due to it representing the amount of prepaid

expenses on the balance sheet. The prepaid expenses are comprised of dental health-insurance premiums

paid in advance.

Total funds in the amount of $4.642 million were committed as health insurance and PSERS reserves and

$63 thousand was committed for various high school projects. $893 thousand was assigned for 2013-

2014 budget utilization to assist in eliminating the need for a millage increase and $49 thousand was

assigned for athletic fund activities. The remaining $7.329 million is unassigned and represents 8% of the

General Fund budget for the year ended 2014.

USING THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT

This annual report consists of three parts - management’s discussion and analysis, the basic financial

statements, and the required supplementary information. The basic financial statements include two kinds

of statements that present different perspectives of the District:

The first two basic financial statements are government-wide financial statements that provide both short-

term and long-term information about the District’s overall financial status.

The remaining basic financial statements are fund financial statements that focus on individual parts of the

District, reporting the District’s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements. The

governmental statements tell how general services were financed in the short term as well as what remains

for future spending. Proprietary-fund statements offer short-term and long-term financial information

about the activities that the District operates like a business. For Dallastown, this is the Food Service

Fund. Fiduciary fund statements provide information about financial relationships where the District acts

solely as the trustee or agent for the benefit of others such as the Middle School and High School Student

Activities Funds.

The financial statements also include notes that explain certain data in the statements and provide more

comprehensive information.

Figure A-1 shows how the required parts of the Financial Section are arranged and relate to one another:

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Government-Wide Statements

The Government-wide statements report information about the District as a whole using accounting

methods similar to those used by private-sector companies. The Statement of Net Position includes all of

the District’s assets, deferred outflows and inflows, and liabilities, with the difference reported as net

position, portions of which are restricted in accordance with other commitments. Net position is

considered one way to measure the District’s financial health. The Statement of Activities accounts for

all of the current year’s revenues and expenses, regardless of when cash is received or paid.

Over time, increases or decreases in the District’s net position are indicators of whether the District’s

financial position is improving or deteriorating, respectively.

To assess the overall financial condition of the District, non-financial factors, such as changes in the

District’s property tax base and conditions of school buildings and other facilities, should be

considered.

In the government-wide financial statements, the District’s activities are divided into two categories:

Governmental activities: Most of the District’s basic services; such as regular, special and adult

education, transportation, administration, and community services; are included here. Property taxes

and state subsidies finance most of the activities that occur in the General Fund.

Business-type activities: The District charges fees to help it cover the costs of the District’s food-

service program.

Fund Financial Statements

The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the District’s funds, not the

District as a whole. Funds are accounting devices the District uses to keep track of specific sources of

funding and spending on particular programs.

Some funds are required by state law and by bond covenants. The District established other funds to

control and manage money for particular purposes (like repaying its long-term debt) or to show that it is

properly using certain revenues (like Federal grants).

The District has three types of funds:

Governmental funds: Most of the District’s basic services are included in governmental funds, which

generally focus on (1) how cash and other financial assets can be readily converted to cash flow in and

out and (2) the balances left at year-end which are available for spending. Consequently, the

governmental-funds statements provide a detailed, short-term view that helps the reader determine

whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the

District’s programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of

the government-wide statements, we provide reconciliations of the governmental funds and

government-wide statements that explain the relationships (or differences) between them.

Proprietary funds: These funds are used to account for the District’s activities that are similar to

business operations in the private sector. When the District charges fees for services provided to

customers, the services are usually reported in proprietary funds. The Food Service Fund is the

District’s proprietary fund and is the same as the business-type activities reported in the government-

wide statements.

Fiduciary funds: The District is the trustee, or fiduciary, for assets that belong to others, such as the

Student Activities Agency Funds. The District is responsible for ensuring that those to whom the

assets belong use them only for their intended purposes. The District excludes these activities from the

government-wide financial statements because they cannot use these assets to finance its operations.

Governmental Activities Business-Type Activities Total Schol District

During fiscal year ended 2013, total assets decreased 3% or $5.135 million over fiscal year ended 2012. The

majority of the decrease in assets is reflected in a 3% reduction of the value of the capital assets. During

fiscal year ended 2013, approximately $1.038 million in technology assets were removed from inventory due

to obsolescence. This, coupled with adding $5.134 million in depreciation expense but only adding $1.114

million additional in capital assets lead to the overall decrease.

The three largest current assets are cash and investments representing 14% of the total assets, property taxes

receivable which is 1% and state subsidy receivable which is slightly less than 1%.

Capital assets, which consist of the District’s land, buildings, building improvements, furniture and

equipment, and construction-in-progress, represent 84% of the total assets in fiscal years ended 2013 and

2012.

Deferred Outflows of Resources was added for fiscal year ended 2013 due to the implementation of GASB

Statement No. 63 and GASB Statement No. 65. The Deferred Outflows of Resources represents deferred

amounts on refunding debt.

On the other side of the balance sheet, liabilities decreased 6% over fiscal year ended 2012.

The decrease in liabilities is primarily due to $5.735 million in debt service principal payments made on the

general obligation bonds and notes, as well as, a 29% decrease in the pay-fixed, interest-rate swap liability

offset by a 105% increase in the other post-employment benefits (OPEB) obligation.

Refer to Footnote 8 for details regarding the principal payments made on the bonds and notes during fiscal

year ended 2013.

The results of this year’s operations as a whole are reported in the Statement of Activities. All expenses are

reported in the first column. Specific charges, grants, revenues and subsidies that directly relate to specific

expense categories are presented to determine the final amounts of the District’s activities that are supported

by other general revenues. The two largest general revenues are the local taxes assessed to community

taxpayers and the basic education subsidy provided by the State of Pennsylvania.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

JUNE 30, 2013

The majority of the $1.475 million or 2% increase in governmental revenues from fiscal year ended 2012

to fiscal year ended 2013 was due to a 10% increase or $974 thousand in operating grants and

contributions as well as an increase of $394 thousand in property taxes.

The $1.475 million or 2% increase was primarily driven by the following:

An increase of $772 thousand or 1% in regular and interim taxes offset by a decrease of $378

thousand or 24% in delinquent tax collections and deferrals. The increase in regular and interim

taxes is due to a small increase in the collectible tax base and a new Wellspan property. The

decrease in delinquent tax collections and deferrals is due to more timely payments of taxes.

An increase of $739 thousand in the state share of retirement contributions which is due to the

43% increase in the rate. The rates for fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012, were 12.36% and

8.65%, respectively.

An increase of $207 thousand in rental and sinking-fund reimbursements due to timings of

approvals for reimbursement.

The majority of the $1.325 million or 2% increase in governmental expenses from fiscal year ended 2012

to 2013 can be attributed to an increase of $2 million in instruction, $222 thousand in instructional student

support and $370 thousand in administration and financial services offset by a decrease of $1.299 million

in interest on long-term debt.

Total Business Type Activities (27,444)$ 11,190$

2013 2012

Revenues of the District’s business-type activities (food and nutrition services) were comprised of

charges for services, Federal and state reimbursements and investment earnings.

Business-type expenses exceeded revenues by $27 thousand in fiscal year ended 2013 and for 2012

business-type revenues exceeded expenses by $11 thousand. During fiscal year ended 2013, operating

expenses decreased $40 thousand or 1% over 2012, and revenues decreased $78 thousand or 3% over

2012. The student-lunch prices increased 10 cents, and the adult-lunch prices increased 15 cents for fiscal

year ended 2013 with no increase in the cost of school-breakfast prices.

The drop in revenue is primarily due to a $125 thousand or 14% decrease in National School Lunch

Program (NSLP) sales and a $123 thousand or 76% decrease in transfers from the General Fund for

unemployment-compensation reimbursement. The unemployment-compensation costs were due to the

outsourcing of the food-service program which started with fiscal year ended 2012.

The reductions in revenue were offset by a $124 thousand increase in Federal subsidies received for the

National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs, as well as an increase of $48 thousand in donated-

commodities usage.

Revenue for charges for services was $1.550 million and $1.663 million in fiscal years ended 2013 and

2012, respectively. This revenue is the amount paid by students and District personnel for daily food

service, including breakfast, lunch, beverages, a la carte purchases and catering services. Charges

represent 58% and 60% of total revenue, respectively.

Federal reimbursement for meals, including payment for free and reduced lunches, was $875 thousand

and $751 thousand for the fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012, respectively. 2013 and 2012 state

reimbursements for meals, including payment for free and reduced lunches, were $85 thousand and $99

thousand, respectively. Federal reimbursements for meals increased $124 thousand over fiscal year 2012

while state reimbursements decreased $14 thousand.

The 16% increase in Federal subsidy reimbursement is due to the following factors:

9-cent increase in reimbursement for free and reduced lunches

1-cent increase in reimbursement for paid lunches

An additional 6 cents per meal for the Federal Meal Pattern Incentive Reimbursement Rate

Program starting in October 2013

4-cent increase in reimbursement for free and reduced breakfasts

The decrease in state reimbursement is tied directly to the decrease in the number of meals served. Refer

to the paragraph below for the information regarding the number of meals served.

During fiscal year ended 2013, the District served 564,864 National School Lunch Program (NSLP)

meals, which is a 9% decrease over the 620,376 NSLP meals served during fiscal year ended 2012. Of

the meals served in 2013, 32% were free meals, 6% were at reduced prices and 62% were paid at full

price.

The District also served 142,795 National School Breakfast Program (NSBP) meals, which is a 10%

increase from the 129,901 NSBP meals served during 2012. Of the meals served in 2013, 57% were free

meals, 7% were at reduced prices and 36% were paid at full price.

The decrease of $40 thousand in operating expenses is primarily due to a drop of $123 thousand in

unemployment-compensation expense which is directly related to a reduction in the District’s

unemployment liability. This decrease was offset by an increase in donated commodities usage of $48

thousand, as well as, an increase of $48 thousand in the cost of custodial services charged-back from the

General Fund. During the first year of outsourcing, the District received a credit of $50 thousand towards

custodial services.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRICT’S FUNDS

Governmental Funds

The focus of the District’s governmental funds is to provide information on relatively short-term cash

flow and future basic services. Such information is useful in assessing the Dallastown Area School

District’s financing requirements. In particular, fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a

government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the year.

As of June 30, 2013, the District’s governmental funds reported a combined fund balance of $15.603

million, which is a decrease of $422 thousand over fiscal year ended 2012. Refer to Figure A-7 for a

breakdown of governmental fund balances and the total change from fiscal year ended 2012 to 2013.

The majority of the overall, total fund balance increase lies in the increases of the committed and

restricted categories offset by the large decrease in assigned.

Total 15,603,030 $ 16,025,189 $ (422,159) $ -3%

The General Fund is the main operating fund of the Dallastown Area School District. For fiscal year

ended 2013, the fund balance of the General Fund was $13.017 million as compared to $13.358 million

for fiscal year ended 2012, an increase of $341 thousand or 3%.

The General Fund balance of $13.017 million is comprised of $41 thousand in nonspendable funds,

$4.705 million in committed, $943 thousand in assigned and $7.329 million in unassigned. For planning

purposes, the Board set aside part of the District’s fund balance for future uses. During fiscal year ended

2013, the Board of School Directors committed $1 million for health-insurance reserves, $3.642 million

to assist with the expected future PSERS rate increase and $63 thousand for various High School projects.

The Board of School Directors also assigned $893 thousand to be utilized to balance the budget for fiscal

year ended 2014.

Overall revenues in the General Fund were $88.230 million and $86.671 million in fiscal years ended 2013 and

2012, respectively. Revenues increased $1.559 million or 2% over last year. Refer to Figure A-8 below for

classifications of General Fund revenues.

88,229,956$ 86,671,271$ 1,558,685$ 1.80%

The majority of the 2% rise in revenues from fiscal year ended 2012 to 2013 can be credited to the following:

Local revenues:

An increase of $280 thousand or less than 1% growth in regular real estate tax revenue which is primarily

due to a small increase in property assessments, as well as a 7% decrease in the tax rebate refunds.

An increase of $492 thousand in interim real estate taxes, from $267 thousand in fiscal year ended 2012 to

$759 thousand in fiscal year ended 2013. The majority of the increase was due to one Wellspan-property

addition of $425 thousand.

The increases were offset by a decrease of $108 thousand in interest on investments which is due to lower

interest rates.

State revenues:

An increase of $739 thousand in state share of retirement contributions which is due to the 43% increase

in the rate. The rates for fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012 were 12.36% and 8.65%, respectively.

An increase of $207 thousand in rental and sinking-fund payments due to timings of reimbursement

approvals. For fiscal year ended 2012, the District only received payments for the G.O. Bonds, Series

2011A, whereas, during fiscal year ended 2013, the District received payments for G.O. Bonds, Series

2011A, 2011AA and 2012.

Federal revenues:

A growth of $91 thousand in Title I receipts due to a 23% increase in funding for Title I.

The majority of the 2% increase in expenditures from fiscal year ended 2012 to 2013 can be credited to:

An increase of $2.088 million in benefits which is due to:

o A growth of 41% or $1.605 million in retirement expenditures which is due to the rate increase.

The rates for fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012 were 12.36% and 8.65%, respectively.

o An increase of $672 thousand in medical insurance expense due to a 14% rate increase in PPO1

medical premiums and a 13% rate increase in PPO2 medical premiums.

A decrease of $229 thousand in purchased property services which is due to a 19% decrease, or $230

thousand, in the cost of electricity. This decrease was due to negotiating with a new electricity provider

which yielded a 7%-rate decrease starting in January 2013, as well as curtailing usage.

A growth of $306 thousand in supplies and books due to:

o Procurement of $447 thousand in MyMath materials.

o An increase of $70 thousand in the cost of natural gas due to switching the morning warm-up of

the Intermediate School from electricity to natural gas.

o These increases were offset by a decrease of $285 thousand in supplies primarily due to:

A decrease of $107 thousand in regular instruction supplies due to cost cutting measures

employed by the building staff.

A decrease of $153 thousand in ARRA IDEA supplies due to the conclusion of the grant.

An increase of 28.5% or $201 thousand in equipment due to the purchase of technology infrastructure to

include a core switch and sixty Aruba switches. These purchases were funded by unanticipated E-rate

funds.

A decrease in other objects of $608 thousand or 22% due to:

o A decrease of $204 thousand in interest expense that is directly related to reclassification of the

debt-service payments made to the York County School of Technology. The expense was

reclassified out of debt-service to vocation education as suggested by the Comptroller’s Office.

o A decrease of 12%, or $125 thousand, in the interest paid on the swap obligations, which is tied to

the decrease in the notional amounts of the swaps.

o A reduction of $180 thousand, or 13%, in bond-interest expense due to more funds being set aside

in the Bond Sinking Fund during refinancing of the General Obligation Bonds, and the reduction

in total debt owed by the District. The Bond Sinking Fund incurred $94 thousand more in interest

expense for fiscal year ended 2013 as compared to fiscal year ended 2012, thus reducing the

burden of interest costs paid out by the General Fund.

to the following:

State revenues:

$270 thousand less than expected of the Social Security and Medicare Subsidies, and $282 thousand less

of the Retirement Subsidy due to the timing of receipt of funds.

Federal revenues:

During fiscal year ended 2012, the District started the implementation process of applying for Access

Reimbursement and hopes to have it completed by the close of fiscal year ending 2014. This resulted in a

difference of $98 thousand in Federal revenues - budget to actual - offset by larger than anticipated

Federal grant awards.

During fiscal year ended 2013, the District did not receive the note premium through the General Fund on

the 2012 refinanced bonds. The money was set aside in the bond-sinking fund to be used to make debt

payments until the cash is gone. This resulted in a difference of $395 thousand in revenues - budget to

actual - in other financing sources. On the expenditure side, there is an equal savings for debt payments

that were paid out of the bond-sinking fund which netted the loss of revenue to zero.

Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2013

The actual expenses were $1.444 million less than budgeted in fiscal year ended 2013 due to the following:

Within the purchased property services-budget category, the District saved $279 in electricity costs.

This decrease was due to negotiations with a new electricity provider that yielded a 7%-rate drop

starting in January 2013 and energy curtailment. There was also a savings of $105 thousand realized

in the leasing of copiers and printers.

Other purchased services were $841 thousand more than budgeted due to:

o $295 thousand more spent on transportation costs due to unanticipated costs for activity runs,

non-public runs and alternative education mid-day runs and an increased cost for diesel.

o $188 thousand more spent on charter and cyber school students. When budgeting for fiscal

year ended 2013, there were approximately 88 charter and cyber school students; however,

during the year, the District saw enrollment reach close to 100, lending to the 18% increase

over budget.

o Reclassifying the debt-service payments made to the York County School of Technology.

The expense was reclassified out of debt-service to vocational education as suggested by the

Comptroller’s Office and represents a total cost of $498 thousand. This reclassification was

slightly offset by the cost of students attending the York County School of Technology being

15% less than budgeted or $186 thousand.

Equipment expense was $284 thousand more than budgeted largely due to purchasing technology

infrastructure in advance with additional e-rate funds.

Other objects were $1.875 million under budget due to:

o Savings of $1.167 million in bond-interest costs due to a favorable note rate, as well as $502

thousand of debt-interest payments being paid out of the bond-sinking fund.

o Reclassification of $178 thousand in budgeted debt service-interest payments for the York County

School of Technology as suggested by the Comptroller’s Office.

o $440 thousand due to reclassification of the tax rebate-incentive program. For budgeting

purposes, according to the Department of Education, the tax rebate-incentive program must be

budgeted as an expense, whereas the actual expense is properly recorded as negative revenue.

o Reclassifying of the $200 thousand budgetary reserve to ensure that the adjusted final budget

relative to actual results is positive by major function and major object.

The overage of $200 thousand in the Other Use of Funds category is primarily due to a Board-approved

Capital Reserve Fund transfer of $380 thousand and a $400 thousand accelerated bond-principal payment.

These expenses were offset by interest savings, as well as by a $337 thousand reduction in York County

School of Technology principal payments which were reclassified to vocational education.

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET AND RATES

2013-2014 Budget

The General Fund Revenue Budget for fiscal year ending 2014 is $90.714 million which is $1.745 million

or 2% more than the fiscal year ended 2013 budget of $88.969 million.

The three largest revenue increases are current real estate taxes, earned income taxes and the retirement-

reimbursement subsidy.

The General Fund Expenditure Budget for fiscal year ending 2014 is $91.607 million which is $1.593

million or 2% more than the fiscal year ended 2013 budget of $90.014 million. In order to subsidize the

budget so that revenues equaled expenditures, $893 thousand of fund balance is to be utilized.

The following highlights the largest categories where increases and decreases are expected:

Benefits - $1.377 million or 8% more than budgeted for fiscal year ended 2013. Retirement

expense captures the largest piece of the benefit increase with $2.147 or 38%. The significant

increase is due to the PSERS rate increase from 12.36% to 16.93%. This increase was offset by a

decrease of $500 thousand in medical-insurance premiums due to lower rates and an alternative

funding method, as well as a decrease of $317 thousand in unemployment compensation.

Other Purchased Services - $934 thousand more than budgeted for fiscal year ended 2013 which

is predominantly due to an increase of $569 in transportation costs. For fiscal year ending 2014,

special-education transportation will be moved to another carrier. The District’s previous carrier

billed a year behind, and therefore, fiscal year ending 2014 will incur a period of “catch-up”.

There was also an increase of $461 thousand in the vocational-education budget due to

reclassifying the bond payments for the York County School of Technology from the debt-service

function.

Other Use of Funds - $524 thousand less than budgeted for fiscal year ended 2013 due to

reclassifying the bond payments for the York County School of Technology from the debt-

service function to the vocational-education function as suggested by the Comptroller’s Office, as

well as the removal of the Food Service Fund unemployment- compensation transfer.

Act 1

Fiscal year ended 2007 was the first year that Session Act I of 2006, known as the Taxpayer Relief Act,

was in place. The law stated that school districts may not increase the real estate-tax rate above the

adjusted-index percentage as determined by the state. Please refer to the ACT 1 Adjusted Index History

Chart below.

School districts that wish to increase millage beyond the index to maintain or improve existing programs

must either apply for exceptions from the Department of Education or receive voter approval for an

increase via a tax increase-referendum question.

The law intends to cap the financial burden of home ownership by providing school districts the means to

lower property taxes to homeowners, especially senior citizens. The legislation is complex, setting rules for

gaming-revenue allocations, requiring front-end voter referenda on tax shifting, mandating new school

district-budget restrictions, and requiring back-end voter referenda on future real estate-tax increases above

the index.

The state is still anticipating gaming will generate $1 billion each year for local property-tax relief. The

intent of Act 1 is that school districts will receive property tax-reduction allocations when the gaming

revenues reach $500 million and the Lottery Fund is repaid. Once the minimum level is obtained,

allocations to school districts will be state-formula driven. The state will in rank-order, assign each school

district a numerical rank and assign a tax-reduction index in order to calculate the property tax-reduction

allocation. Districts are eligible to receive the allocations unless their Boards of School Directors, by

resolution, reject the allocation. If rejected, a referendum is submitted to the voters to determine whether

they favor the school district receiving a property tax-reduction allocation.

There are referendum-exceptions built into Act I should districts need to raise taxes beyond the adjusted

index. The exceptions provide partial relief for increases in the costs of special education, retirement and

health-care expenses, emergencies and disasters and some school- construction projects. It is anticipated

that most school districts will be requesting relief through some of the exceptions.

The Court of Common Pleas will make decisions on some referendum-exceptions, but most will require

approval from the Department of Education. As a result, the budget timeline for all schools needing to go

above the adjusted index has been accelerated to provide the Department with a preliminary proposed

budget by the beginning of February each year along with the proposed exceptions so that the Department

has time to act upon the requested exceptions.

PSERS

The Pennsylvania School Employees Retirement System (PSERS) set the rate for fiscal year ended 2014

at 16.93%, a 37% increase over the 2013 rate of 12.36%. Refer to the chart below for past rates and

RECONCILIATION OF THE GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS BALANCE SHEET

TO THE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION

June 30, 2013

Total fund balances - governmental funds 15,603,030 $

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net

Position are different because:

Capital Assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources,

and therefore, they are not reported as assets in governmental funds. The cost

of assets is $170,163,761, and the accumulated depreciation is $47,221,728. 122,942,033

Property taxes and earned income taxes receivable will be collected this

year, but are not available soon enough to pay for the current period's

expenditures; therefore, they are deferred inflows of resources in the funds. 1,044,527

The difference between the re-acquisition price and the net carrying

amount of the refunded debt is a deferred outflow of resources,

which is not reported in the funds. 111,365

Long-term receivables are not available for current use and are

recorded in the Statement of Net Position. 1,050,000

Long-term liabilities; including bonds payable, swap liability, compensated

absences, and other post-employment benefits; are not due and payable in

the current period, and therefore, they are not reported as liabilities in the funds.

Long-term liabilities at year-end consist of:

Bonds payable, including bond premium (83,384,427)

Pay-fixed, interest-rate swap liability (2,249,079)

Lease-purchase obligations (19,151)

Other post-employment benefits (1,292,612)

Compensated absences (1,643,555)

(88,588,824)

RECONCILIATION OF THE GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS STATEMENT OFREVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES TO THESTATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES

Year Ended June 30, 2013

Net changes in fund balances - governmental funds (422,159) $

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of

Activities are different because:

Capital outlays are reported in governmental funds as expenditures. However, in

the Statement of Activities, the costs of those assets are allocated over their useful

lives as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which depreciation

and dispositions of capital assets exceeds capital outlays.

Capital outlays 1,113,676

Loss on sale of capital assets (9,737)

Less depreciation expense (5,134,159) (4,030,220)

Because some property taxes will not be collected for several months after the

District's fiscal year ends, they are not considered as "available" revenues in the

governmental funds. Deferred inflows of resources decreased by this amount this year. (119,335)

The repayment of notes receivable provides current resources; however, it does not

have any effect on the net assets. (330,000)

Interest on long-term debt in the Statement of Activities differs from the amount

reported in the governmental funds because interest is recognized as an expenditure

in the funds when it is due, and thus requires the use of current financial resources.

In the Statement of Activities, interest expense is recognized as the interest accrues,

regardless of when it is due. In addition, refunding losses, bond premiums,

discounts, and changes in swap liabilities are recognized as interest throughout the lives

over the amount due is shown here. 1,828,915

Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the use of current

financial resources, and therefore, are not reported as revenues in governmental funds. (677,133)

The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental

funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current

financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any

effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effects of

premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these

amounts are deferred and amortized in the Statement of Activities. This

amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term

debt and related items.

Issuance of long-term debt, including bond premium (69,465,863)

Repayment of long-term debt 74,618,582 5,152,719

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Dallastown Area School District (the District) was formed in 1966 under the provisions of P.L. 564, the

School District Reorganization Act of 1963 of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The District operates

a public-school system that encompasses six municipalities in York County. The governing body of the

District is a board of nine school directors who are each elected for a four-year term. The daily operation

and management of the District is carried out by the administrative staff of the District, headed by the

Superintendent of Schools who is appointed by the Board of School Directors. Funding for the District is

received from local, Commonwealth, and Federal sources and must comply with the requirements of the

various funding-source agencies.

The District assesses the taxpayers of these municipalities based upon taxing powers at its disposal. The

ability of the School District’s taxpayers to pay their assessments is dependent upon economic and other

factors affecting the taxpayers.

The financial statements of the District have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles

generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as applied to governmental units. The

Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the authoritative, standard-setting body for the

establishment of governmental accounting and financial-reporting principles. The more significant of

these accounting policies are as follows:

A. Reporting Entity

In evaluating the District as a reporting entity, management has addressed all potential component units

which may or may not fall within the District’s financial accountability. The criteria used to evaluate

component units for possible inclusion as part of the District’s reporting entity are financial accountability

and the nature and significance of the relationship. This report presents the activities of the District. The

District is not a component unit of another reporting entity, nor does it have any component units. The

District does, however, participate in jointly-governed organizations which are described in Note 9.

DALLASTOWN AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

45

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of

Activities) report information on all of the non-fiduciary activities of the primary government. The

significant effects of interfund activity have been removed from these statements. Governmental

activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately

from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.

The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function, or

segment, are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a

specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who

purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services or privileges provided by a given function or

segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital

requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among

program revenue are reported instead as general revenues.

Separate fund financial statements are provided in the report for all of the governmental, proprietary, and

the fiduciary funds of the District, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide

financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and the major proprietary fund are reported as

separate columns in the fund financial statements. Non-major funds are also presented in a single

column. Fiduciary funds are reported by fund type.

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation

The District complies with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America

(GAAP) and applies all relevant Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements.

The provisions of GASB Statement No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting

Guidance Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989, FASB and AICPA Pronouncements, are generally

followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those

provisions do not conflict with or contradict guidance provided by the Governmental Accounting

Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following subsequent private-sector guidance for

their business-type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same limitation. The District has elected

not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic-resources measurement focus

and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary and fiduciary fund financial statements.

Revenues are recorded when earned, and expenses are recorded when related liabilities are incurred,

regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for

which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenues as soon as all eligibility

requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Net position (assets plus deferred outflows of

resources less liabilities less deferred inflows of resources) is used as a practical measure of economic

resources, and the operating statement includes all transactions and events that increased or decreased net

position. Depreciation is charged as an expense against current operations, and accumulated depreciation

is reported in the Statement of Net Position.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

46

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued)

Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial-resources measurement

focus and the modified-accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both

measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the

current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the

government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the

current fiscal period. Revenues from Federal, state and other grants designated for payment of specific

District expenditures are recognized when the related expenditures are incurred; accordingly, when such

funds are received, they are recorded as deferred revenues until earned. Expenditures generally are

recorded when related liabilities are incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt-service

expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are

recorded only when payments are due.

When both restricted and unrestricted (including committed, assigned, and unassigned) resources are

available for use, it is the District’s policy to generally use the resources with the most stringent

restrictions first, followed by resources in decreasing order of restriction, as funds are needed. However,

the District does use unassigned monies at times to pay for expenditures that may have been board-

committed.

Governmental funds are those through which most governmental functions of the District are financed.

The acquisition, use, and balances of the District’s expendable financial resources and the related

liabilities (except those accounted for in proprietary funds) are accounted for through governmental funds.

The District reports the following major governmental funds:

General Fund - The General Fund is the District’s primary, operating fund. It accounts for all

financial resources except those required to be in another fund. Revenues are primarily derived

from local property, earned income, and per capita taxes, and state and Federal distributions.

Many of the more important activities for the District, including instruction, administration of the

District and certain non-instructional services are accounted for in this fund.

Capital Projects Fund - The Capital Projects Fund is used to account for and report financial

resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditures for the acquisition,

construction, or improvement of major capital facilities (other than those financed by proprietary

funds).

Proprietary Fund - The District operates one enterprise fund, the Food Service Fund. This fund

accounts for the activities of the District’s food-service program.

DALLASTOWN AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

47

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued)

Proprietary funds are used to account for activities that are similar to those often found in the private

sector. The measurement focus is upon determination of net income and capital maintenance.

Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating

revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in

connection with the proprietary fund’s principal, on-going operations. The principal operating revenues

of the District’s proprietary fund are food-service charges. Operating expenses for the District’s

proprietary fund include food-production costs, supplies, administrative costs, and depreciation on capital

assets. All revenues or expenses not meeting these classifications are reported as non-operating revenues

and expenses. The District allocates certain building-related costs, such as extermination and custodial

fees, to the Food Service Fund.

The District maintains the following fiduciary fund type:

Agency Fund - Student Activities - The Student Activities Fund accounts for assets held by the

District as an agent for various student groups.

The Student Activities Fund accounts for the resources authorized by Section 511 of the Public School

Code of 1949 for school publications and organizations. A portion of this fund is an agency fund which

is separate from other agency funds because of legal requirements. Agency funds are custodial in nature

(assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of operations. Agency funds are also

accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting.

D. Budget and Budgetary Accounting

The School Board approves, prior to the beginning of each year, an annual budget on the modified-

accrual basis for the General Fund. This is the only fund for which a budget is required and for which

taxes may be levied. The General Fund is the only fund that has an annual budget that has been legally

adopted by the School Board. The School Board does not legally adopt the Food Service Fund budget;

however, it is approved. The Public School Code allows the School Board to authorize budget-transfer

amendments during the last nine months of each fiscal year.

The School District may not legally exceed the revised budget amounts by function and object. Function

is defined as a program area such as instructional services, and object is defined as the nature of the

expenditure such as salaries or supplies. Amendments require the School Board’s approval. All

appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year.

E. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position or Fund Balance

Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows presented for the proprietary

fund, the District considers all highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when

purchased to be cash equivalents.

Investments: Investments are stated at fair value.

Inventories: Inventories in the proprietary fund are generally presented at the lower of cost or market on a

first-in, first-out basis, and are expensed when used. Inventories consist of certain government-donated

commodities which were valued at estimated fair market value, as well as purchased commodities and

supplies.

Prepaid Expenses: Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and

are recorded as prepaid expenses (consumption method) in both the government-wide and fund financial

statements.

Capital Assets and Depreciation: Capital assets; which include property, plant and equipment, and

infrastructure assets; are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities column in the

government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are capitalized in accordance with board policy at

the discretion of management. Management considers various factors in the capitalization of assets,

including the assets’ estimated useful lives, costs, and the extents to which the assets are part of larger

capital projects. The established procedures state that individual assets with costs greater than $2,500 and

group assets costing greater than $10,000 are to be capitalized. Buildings and land improvements are

capitalized at a cost of $25,000 or greater, and modular classrooms are capitalized at $10,000. The

donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated fair market values on the dates of donation.

The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the values of the assets or materially

extend assets’ lives are not capitalized.

Depreciation is provided for capital assets on the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful

lives:

Governmental Business-Type

Activities Activities

Land improvements 20 N/A

Buildings and improvements 15-50 N/A

Machinery and equipment 5-20 5-20

Estimated Lives ( in years)

Deferred Outflows of Resources - Deferred amounts on refunding debt: The District recognizes the

difference between the re-acquisition price and the net carrying amount of the old debt as a deferred

outflow which is a component of interest expense over the remaining life of the old or new debt,

whichever is shorter.

Long-Term Obligations: In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the

fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the

applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the Statement of Net Position. Bond

premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the lives of the related bonds.

In the fund financial statements, governmental-fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts during

the current period. The face amount of the debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Issuance

costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt-service

expenditures.

Compensated Absences: The District provides for the accumulation and payout of sick pay upon the

retirement of employees who retire under the terms of the District’s collective-bargaining agreements.

Teachers, administrators, and support employees are eligible to receive a per-diem amount for all

accumulated sick days.

Post-Employment Benefits: In the government-wide financial statements, the District recognizes the

costs and liabilities associated with post-employment benefits other than pension compensation, which is

funded through the District’s contribution to the statewide Public School Employees’ Retirement System,

a governmental, cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined-benefit pension plan. The District provides

retiree health, and dental-care benefits, including prescription-drug coverage, to eligible, retired

employees and qualified spouses/beneficiaries. The District has estimated the cost of providing these

benefits through an actuarial valuation.

Derivative Financial Instruments: Derivative instruments used by the District are swap contracts that

have a variable or fixed payment based on the price of an underlying interest rate or index. Hedging

derivative instruments is used to reduce financial risks, such as offsetting increases in interest costs by

offsetting changes in cash flows of the debt, the hedged item. At year-end, these derivative instruments

are evaluated to determine if the derivative instruments are effective in significantly reducing the

identified financial risk. If the derivative instrument is determined to be an effective hedge, its fair value

is an asset or liability with a corresponding debit or credit to deferred outflows or inflows on the

Statement of Net Position. Deferred outflows or inflows constitute changes in fair value of effectively-

hedged derivative instruments. This account is neither an asset nor a liability. If the derivative

instruments are determined to be ineffective or when there is no item to be hedged, the derivative

instruments are considered to be investment derivatives; their fair values are either assets or liabilities on

the Statement of Net Position, and the changes in their fair values are recognized against investment

income in the Statement of Activities.

Interfund Transfers: Advances between funds that are not expected to be repaid are accounted for as

transfers. In those cases when repayment is expected, the advances are accounted for through the various

“due from” and “due to” accounts. Transactions and balances between governmental activities have been

eliminated in the government-wide financial statements. Residual amounts due between governmental

and business-type activities are indicated on the Statement of Net Position as internal balances.

(Continued)

Deferred Inflows of Resources - Unearned revenues: The District recognizes property tax revenues when

they become available. Available includes those property taxes expected to be collected within sixty days

after year-end. Those property taxes expected to be collected beyond sixty days after year-end are shown

as deferred revenue in the fund financial statements. Governmental funds also defer revenues in

connection with resources that have been received, but not yet earned.

Fund Balance

The School District’s fund balance classifications are defined and described as follows:

Nonspendable: Represents fund balance amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in a

spendable form or are contractually required to be maintained intact.

Restricted: Represents fund balance amounts that are constrained for a specific purpose through

restrictions of external parties, through constitutional provisions, or by enabling legislation.

Committed: Represents fund balance amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to

the constraints imposed by the Board of School Directors, the District’s highest level of decision-

making authority. A formal vote by the Board of School Directors is required to impose funds as

committed, as well as to modify or rescind previously-committed funds.

Assigned: Represents fund balance amounts that are constrained by the government’s intent to be used

for a specific purpose but are neither restricted nor committed. Through Board Policy 620, the Board

has delegated the authority to express intent to the District’s Business Manager.

Unassigned: Represents fund balance amounts that have not been restricted, committed, or assigned to

specific purposes within the General Fund. A negative, unassigned fund balance may be reported in

other governmental funds if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceeded the amounts

restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes.

The District has a board policy which prescribes fund balance guidelines. The District will strive to

maintain an assigned and unassigned general fund balance of not less than 5 percent and not more than 8

percent of budgeted expenditures for that year.

When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted (committed,

assigned, or unassigned) amounts are available, the District will reduce the committed balance first,

followed by the assigned balance, and then by the unassigned balance.

Restricted Net Position: This classification consists of certain assets which were restricted for specific

purposes by law, through constitutional provisions, or enabling legislation.

Use of Estimates: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. These

estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported revenues

and expenditures.

(Continued)

Implementation of New Accounting Principle: GASB issued Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of

Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources and Net Position, which provides

financial-reporting guidance for deferred outflows and inflows of resources. The requirements of this

statement improve financial reporting by standardizing the presentations of deferred outflows and inflows

of resources and their effects on the government’s net position. This standard was adopted for fiscal year

ended June 30, 2013. The adoption of this statement reclassified Net Assets to Net Position, and

identified two new elements as components of the Statement of Net Position

GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, sets forth criteria to

properly classify previously-reported assets and liabilities as deferred outflows or inflows of resources or

to recognize certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities as outflows or inflows of

resources. The standard was issued in March 2012 and is effective for the period beginning after

December 15, 2012. This standard was adopted for year ended June 30, 2013.

Subsequent Events: In preparing these financial statements, the District has evaluated events and

transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through November 12, 2013, the date the financial

statements were available to be issued.

Note 2. Deposits and Investments (Continued)

Portfolio Assets

PSDLAF - This fund invests in U.S. treasury securities, U.S. government securities, its agencies and

instrumentalities, and repurchase agreements, collateralized by such securities and contracted with highly-

rated counterparties. Weighted-average portfolio maturity for the fund is expected to be kept at or below

60 days. The District’s position in the investment pool is presented at fair value. PSDLAF is not subject

to any regulatory oversight.

Weighted-Average Maturity

The weighted-average maturity (WAM) method expresses investment time horizons - the time when

investments become due and payable - in years or months, weighted to reflect the dollar-size of individual

investments within an investment type. WAMs are computed for each investment type. The portfolio’s

WAM is derived by dollar-weighting the WAM for each investment type.

Interest-Rate Risk

The District does not have a formal investment policy that limits investment maturities as a means of

managing its exposure to fair-value losses arising from increasing interest rates.

Credit Risk

As indicated above, Section 440.1 of the Public School Code of 1949, as amended, limits the composition

of the District’s investments, and the District has no investment policy that would further limit its

investment choices. As of June 30, 2013, the District’s investments in PSDLAF and in Federated

Treasury Obligations were rated AAAm by Standard & Poor’s.

Concentrations-of-Credit Risk

The District places no limit on the amounts invested in any one issuer. The District’s investments in

PSDLAF represent 87.76% of the District’s total investments.

2004 Bonds was $148,230.

General Obligation Bonds - Series B of 2010 - On July 14, 2010, the District issued General Obligation

Bonds - Series B of 2010 in the principal amount of $1,710,000. The proceeds of the bonds are being

used to fund the costs of design and construction of roof replacements to the York County School of

Technology. The bonds bear annual interest rates ranging from 1.00% to 3.50%. Interest is payable

semi-annually, and the bonds mature serially in amounts ranging from $330,000 to $360,000 through

2015.

General Obligation Notes - Series AA of 2011 - On March 30, 2011, the District issued General

Obligation Notes - Series AA of 2011 in the principal amount of $12,160,000. The proceeds of the

notes are being used to refinance the General Obligation Bonds - Series of 2006. The notes bear annual

April 15, 2013. The notes bear interest at annual rates that shall not exceed 6.00%; the initial rate is

1.25%. Interest is payable quarterly and on the date of maturity.

There were no economic gains or losses on the foregoing 2013 refinancing transactions. As explained

in Note 13, the District intends to refinance the 2013 debt prior to the scheduled maturity dates;

therefore, any expected cost-savings may not be realized. Each year, it is the District’s intent to

refinance the debt that is hedged by pay-fixed, interest-rate swaps until the swap-termination dates of

February 1, 2018 and May 1, 2020.

required by the Pennsylvania Department of Education Financial Accounting and Reporting Manual,

debt-issuance costs are reported on the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund

Balances as Support Services.

The District has no outstanding, in-substance defeased debt.

Compensated Absences

The District’s administrators and support staff are granted vacation time in varying amounts depending

on their years of service. Accumulated vacation days from one fiscal year shall be used by December

31st of the following year unless an extension is granted by the Superintendent. Unused accumulated

vacation days are transferred to sick leave.

The District allows employees to accumulate their unused sick leave as specified in negotiated labor

contracts, the support staff handbook and the administrative compensation plan. Sick leave used is

based on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. Twelve-month employees are granted twelve sick days

per year. Support staff and DAEA-eligible staff working ten months per year are granted ten days.

Part-time employees are granted sick days based on the number of hours/days worked.

Upon retirement, accumulated sick leave is paid out of the General Fund as follows:

Administrators: Upon meeting normal retirement standards as set forth by PSERS, 25% over the

DAEA-contract rate as long as policy provisions are met, or $62.50 a day for 2012-2013.

DAEA-eligible staff and support staff: Upon meeting normal retirement standards as set forth by

PSERS, or $50.00 a day for 2012-2013.

Superannuation retirees with twenty years, but less than normal retirement as set forth by PSERS, shall

receive 75% of the amounts detailed above.

Compensated absences totaling $22,782 are due within one year due to retirements of staff during the

year ended June 30, 2013.

All compensated absences are funded by the General Fund.

Note 10. Defined-Benefit Pension Plan

Plan Description

Name of plan: The Public School Employees’ Retirement System (the System)

Type of plan: Governmental, cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined-benefit plan

Benefits: Retirement and disability, legislatively-mandated ad hoc cost-of-living adjustments, healthcare

insurance-premium assistance to qualifying annuitants

Authority: The Public School Employees’ Retirement Code (Act No. 96 of October 2, 1975, as amended)

(24 Pa. C.S. 8101-8535)

Annual Financial Report: The System issues a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) that

includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the plan. A copy of the report

may be obtained by writing to Diane J. Wert, Office of Financial Management, Public School Employees’

Retirement System, P.O. Box 125, Harrisburg, PA 17108-0125. The CAFR is also available on the

Publications page of the PSERS website at http://www.psers.state.pa.us/publications/general/cafr.htm.

Funding Policy

Authority: The contribution policy is established in the Public School Employees’ Retirement Code and

requires contributions by active members, employers, and the Commonwealth.

Contribution Rates

Member Contributions: Active members who joined the System prior to July 22, 1983, contribute at

5.25% (Membership Class T-C) or at 6.50% (Membership Class T-D) of the members’ qualifying

compensation. Members who joined the System on or after July 22, 1983, and who were active or

inactive as of July 1, 2001, contribute at 6.25% (Membership Class T-C) or at 7.50% (Membership Class

T-D) of the members’ qualifying compensation. Members who joined the System after June 30, 2001 and

before July 1, 2011, contribute at 7.50% (automatic Membership Class T-D). For all new hires and for

members who elected Class T-D membership, the higher contribution rates began with service rendered

on or after January 1, 2002. Members who joined the System after June 30, 2011, automatically

contribute at the Membership Class T-E rate of 7.50% (base rate) of the members’ qualifying

compensation. All new hires after June 30, 2011, who elect Class T-F membership, contribute at 10.30%

(base rate) of the members’ qualifying compensation. Membership Class T-E and T-F are affected by a

“shared risk” provision in Act 120 of 2010 that in future fiscal years could cause the Membership Class

T-E contribution rate to fluctuate between 7.50% and 9.50% and Membership Class T-F contribution rate

to fluctuate between 10.30% and 12.30%.

Employer Contributions: Contributions required of employers are based upon an actuarial valuation. For

fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, the rate of employers’ contributions was 12.36% of covered payroll. The

12.36% rate is composed of a pension contribution rate of 11.50% for pension benefits and 0.86% for

healthcare insurance-premium assistance.

Funding Policy

The contribution requirements of plan members are established by contractual obligations and may be

amended by the Board of School Directors. Required contributions are based on projected pay-as-you-go

financing requirements. Plan members receiving benefits contributed $295,437 through their required

monthly contributions. Costs related to the funding of the District’s OPEB obligation are budgeted and

paid for through the District’s General Fund.

Annual OPEB Cost

For 2013, the District funded 54.76% of its annual OPEB cost of $1,461,330 for the District’s employees.

The District’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net

OPEB obligation for 2013 and the preceding years are as follows:

Funding Progress

For the year ended June 30, 2013, the District has estimated the cost (annual expense) of providing retiree

health, and dental-care benefits through an actuarial valuation as of January 1, 2012. In accordance with

GASB Statement No. 45, the valuation computes an annual required contribution, which represents a

level of funding that, if paid on an on-going basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and

amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period of thirty years. This valuation’s computed

contribution and actual funding are summarized as follows:

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions

Actuarial valuations of an on-going plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and

assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include

assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the health-care cost trend. Amounts are determined

regarding the funded status of the plan, and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject

to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made

about the future.

Projections of benefits for financial-reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as

understood by the employer and the plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time

of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan

members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed

to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of

assets, consistent with the long-term perspectives of the calculations.

In the January 1, 2012 actuarial valuation, the Entry-Age Normal Cost Method was used. The actuarial

assumptions include a 4.50% investment rate-of-return (net of administrative expenses), which is a

blended rate of the expected long-term and short-term investment returns on the District’s own assets to

be used for funding the current liability, and an annual health-care cost trend rate of 7.50% initially,

reduced by decrements to an ultimate rate of 5.50% by 2016. Both rates include a 4.50% inflation

assumption. The UAAL is being amortized over a 30-year open period as a level-dollar amount.

A separate, audited, GAAP-basis, post-employment benefit plan report is not issued.

All other post-employment benefits obligations are funded by the General Fund.

Note 12. Derivative Financial Instruments

Objective of the Interest-Rate Swaps

As a means to manage interest-rate exposure, the District entered into two separate pay-fixed, interest-rate

swaps in connection with its Series of 1998 and 2000 General Obligation Bonds. The swap contracts

remained in effect after the refunding of the 1998 and 2000 bonds. The intention of the swaps was to

effectively change the District’s variable-interest rates on the bonds to lower synthetic-fixed rates.

Terms, Fair Value and Credit Risk

The terms, fair values, and credit risks of the outstanding swaps as of June 30, 2013, were as follows.

The notional amounts of the swaps matched the principal amounts of the original associated debt rather

than the 2008 Series. The District’s swap agreements contain scheduled reductions to outstanding

notional amounts that are expected to approximately follow scheduled or anticipated reductions in the

associated “bonds payable” category.

Swap

Notional Effective Fixed Rate Variable Rate Fair Termination

Amounts Date Paid Received Values Date

GO Bonds

Series of 2013 18,050,000$ 5/1/2006 3.816% 67% of LIBOR (1,816,399) $ 2/1/2018

21,980,000$ (2,249,079) $

For the year ended June 30, 2013, the derivative instruments are considered to be investment derivatives,

with their fair values recorded as noncurrent liabilities on the Statement of Net Position and the changes

in their fair values recognized as components of interest expense in the Statement of Activities. During

the year ended June 30, 2013, $937,797 was recorded as a reduction of interest expense in the Statement

of Activities to reflect the change in fair values of the derivatives from July 1, 2012.

DALLASTOWN AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

72

Note 12. Derivative Financial Instruments (Continued)

Fair Value

Because interest rates have declined, all swaps had a negative fair value as of June 30, 2013. The

negative fair values may be countered by reductions in total interest payments required under the

variable-rate bonds, creating lower synthetic-fixed interest rates. Because the coupons on the

government’s variable-rate bonds adjust to changing interest rates, the bonds do not have corresponding

fair-value increases. The fair values were estimated using the zero-coupon method. This method

calculates the future net settlement payments required by the swaps, assuming that the current forward

rates implied by the yield curve correctly anticipate future spot-interest rates. These payments are then

discounted using the spot rates implied by the current yield curve for hypothetical zero-coupon bonds due

on the date of each future net settlement on the swaps.

Credit Risk

As of June 30, 2013, the District was not exposed to credit risk because the swaps had negative fair

values. However, should interest rates change and the fair values of the swaps become positive, the

District would be exposed to credit risk in the amount of the derivatives’ fair values.

The swap agreements contain a collateral agreement with the counterparty. The swaps require full

collateralization of the fair values of the swaps should the counterparty’s credit rating fall below A as

issued by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service or A3 as issued by Moody’s Investors Service. Collateral on

all swaps is to be in the form of U.S. Government securities held by a third-party custodian.

The District also enters into master-netting agreements when the District has entered into more than one

derivative transaction with one counterparty.

Under the terms of these agreements, should one party become insolvent or otherwise default on its

obligations, close-out netting provisions permit the non-defaulting party to accelerate and terminate all

outstanding transactions and net the transactions’ fair values so that a single sum will be owed by, or

owed to, the non-defaulting party.

The District has executed two swap transactions with one counterparty. That counterparty is rated AA-

by Standard & Poor’s Rating Service and Aaa by Moody’s Investors Service.

Basis Risk

The swap exposes the District to basis risk should the relationship between the LIBOR BBA and the

variable rates charged on the loan change the synthetic rate on the bonds. The effect of the difference in

basis is indicated by the difference between the intended synthetic rate (3.816% for Series of 1998 Bonds

and 3.836% for Series of 2000 Bonds) and the actual synthetic rate as of June 30, 2013, (4.935% for

Series of 1998 Bonds and 4.955% for Series of 2000 Bonds). If a change occurs that results in the rates

moving to convergence, the expected cost-savings may not be realized.

DALLASTOWN AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

73

Note 12. Derivative Financial Instruments (Continued)

Tax Risk

Tax risk is a specific type of basis risk. Tax risk is a permanent mismatch between the interest rate paid

on the District’s underlying variable-rate bonds and the rate received on the swap caused by a reduction

or elimination in the benefits of the tax-exemption for municipal bonds (e.g., a tax cut that results in an

increase in the ratio of tax-exempt to taxable yields). The District is receiving 67% of LIBOR (a taxable

index) on the swaps and would experience a shortfall relative to the rates paid on its bonds if marginal

income-tax rates decrease relative to expected levels, thus increasing the overall cost of its synthetic-fixed

rate debt.

Termination Risk

The derivative contracts use the International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreement, which

includes standard termination events, such as a failure to pay and bankruptcy. The District or the

counterparty may terminate the swap if the other party fails to perform under the terms of the contract. If

the swap is terminated, the variable-rate bonds would no longer carry synthetic interest rates. Also, if at

the time of termination the swaps had negative fair values, the District would be liable to the counterparty

for a payment equal to the swaps’ fair values.

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies

Risk Management

The District is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, or destruction of assets

and errors or omissions. Significant losses are covered by commercial insurance for all major programs.

For insured programs, there have been no significant reductions in settlement coverage. Settlement

amounts have not exceeded insurance coverage for the current year or three prior years.

Grant Programs

The District participates in numerous state and Federal grant programs, which are governed by various

rules and regulations of the grantor agencies. Costs charged to the respective grant programs are subject

to audit and adjustment by the grantor agencies; therefore, to the extent that the District has not complied

with the rules and regulations governing the grants, refunds of any money received may be required, and

the collectability of any related receivables at June 30, 2013, may be impaired. In the opinion of the

District, there are no significant contingent liabilities relating to compliance with the rules and regulations

governing the respective grants; therefore, no provision has been recorded in the accompanying financial

statements for such contingencies.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER

FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS

BASED ON AN AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Board of School Directors

Dallastown Area School District

Dallastown, Pennsylvania

We have audited, in accordance with the 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, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of

Dallastown Area School District, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013, and the related notes to the

financial statements, which collectively comprise Dallastown Area School District’s basic financial

statements, and have issued our report thereon dated November 12, 2013.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered Dallastown Area School

District'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 opinions on the financial

statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Dallastown Area

School District’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of

Dallastown Area School District’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, or

detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a 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 that

might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. 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.

84

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Dallastown Area School District's financial

statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain

provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, 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 Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe 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 considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly,

this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR

FEDERAL PROGRAM AND REPORT ON INTERNAL CONROL OVER COMPLIANCE

AS REQUIRED BY OMB CIRCULAR A-133

Board of School Directors

Dallastown Area School District

Dallastown, Pennsylvania

Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program

We have audited Dallastown Area School District’s compliance with the types of compliance

requirements described in the OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and

material effect on each of Dallastown Area School District’s major Federal programs for the year ended

June 30, 2013. Dallastown Area School District’s major Federal programs are identified in the Summary

of Auditor’s Results Section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs.

Management’s Responsibility

Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and

grants applicable to its Federal programs.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of Dallastown Area School District’s

major Federal programs based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We

conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United

States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing

Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of

States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133

require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance

with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect

on a major Federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about

Dallastown Area School District’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other

procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major

Federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of Dallastown Area School

District’s compliance.

Opinion on Each Major Federal Program

In our opinion, Dallastown Area School District complied, in all material respects, with the types of

compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its

major Federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Report on Internal Control Over Compliance

Management of Dallastown Area School District is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective

internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning

and performing our audit of compliance, we considered Dallastown Area School District’s internal

control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on

each major Federal program to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the

circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major Federal program

and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, but

not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance.

Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Dallastown Area School District’s

internal control over compliance.

A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over

compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned

functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a

Federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a

deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a

reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal

program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in

internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over

compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a Federal program that is less severe than a material

weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged

with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance 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

compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any

deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However,

material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our

testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of

OMB Circular A-133. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.
