St. Landry Parish Community Action AgencyOpelousas, Louisiana
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmentalactivities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of St.Landry Parish Community Action Agency, a component unit of the St. Landry ParishGovernment, as of July 31, 2007, and for the year then ended, which collectivelycomprise the Agency's basic financial statements as listed in the table ofcontents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the CommunityAction Agency's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on thesebasic financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted inthe United States of America and the standards applicable to financial auditscontained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General ofthe United States; and the provisions of Office of Management and Budget CircularA-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Nonprofit Organizations. Thosestandards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit toobtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free ofmaterial misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidencesupporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit alsoincludes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates madeby management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly in allmaterial respects, the respective financial position of the governmentalactivities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of St.Landry Parish Community Action Agency, as of July 31, 2007, and the respectivechanges in financial position for the year then ended in conformity withaccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our reportdated January 29, 2008, on our consideration of the St. Landry Parish CommunityAction Agency's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of itscompliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grantagreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scopeof our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and theresults of that testing and not to provide an opinion on the internal control overfinancial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an auditperformed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should beconsidered in assessing the results of our audit.

St. Landry Parish Community Action AgencyOpelousas, LouisianaPage 2 • .
The budgetary comparison schedule on page 25 is not a required part of the basicfinancial statements but is supplementary information required by accountingprinciples generally accepted in the United States of America. We have appliedcertain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of managementregarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the requiredsupplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and expressno opinion on it.
The Agency has not presented management's discussion and analysis and the requiredbudgetary comparison except for the General Fund that the Governmental AccountingStandards Board has determined is necessary to supplement, although not requiredto be part of the basic financial statements.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financialstatements that collectively comprise the St. Landry Parish Community ActionAgency's basic financial statements. The other supplementary information listedin the table of contents for the year ended July 31, 2007, are presented forpurposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financialstatements of the St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency. The accompanyingSchedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is presented for purposes of additionalanalysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133,Audits of States, Local Governments, and Nonprofit Organizations, and is also nota required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has beensubjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financialstatements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, inrelation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
MEASUREMENT FOCUS (Continued)
a. All governmental funds utilize a "current financial resources"measurement focus. Only current financial assets and liabilities aregenerally included on their- balance sheets. Their operating statementspresent sources and uses of available spendable financial resourcesduring a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure ofavailable spendable financial resources at the end of the period.
b. The proprietary fund utilizes an "economic resources" measurement focus.The accounting objective of this measurement focus is the determinationof operating income, changes in net assets (or cost recovery), financialposition, and cash flows. All assets and liabilities (whether current ornoncurrent) associated with their activities are reported. Proprietaryfund equity is classified as net assets.
c. Agency funds are not involved in the measurement of results ofoperations; therefore, measurement focus is not applicable to them.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
In the government-wide Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities,governmental activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting.Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned andexpenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used.Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchangeand exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.
Governmental fund and fiduciary fund financial statements are reported using thecurrent financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis ofaccounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable andavailable. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectiblewithin the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of thecurrent period. For thi s purpose, the government cons iders revenues to beavailable if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscalperiod. Expenditures (including capital outlay) generally are recorded when aliability is incurred, as under accrual accounting.
Deferred revenue is reported on the balance sheet. Deferred revenue arises whenresources are received before the St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency has alegal claim to them, as when grant monies are received prior to the incurrence ofqualifying expenditures. In subsequent periods, when both revenue recognitioncriteria are met, or when there is a legal claim to the resources, the liabilityfor deferred revenue is removed from the balance sheet and revenue is recognized.
PROGRAM REVENUES
Program revenues included in the Statement of Activities are derived directly fromthe program itself or from parties outside St. Landry Parish Community ActionAgency's clients, as a whole; program revenues reduce the cost of the function tobe financed from the St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency's general revenues.

ALLOCATION OF INDIRECT EXPENSES
St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency reports all direct expenses by functionin the Statement of Activities. Direct expenses are those that are clearlyidentifiable with a function. Indirect expenses of other functions are notallocated to those functions, but are reported separately in the Statement ofActivities. Depreciation expense is specifically identified by function and isincluded in the direct expense of each function. Interest on general long-termdebt is considered an indirect expense and is reported separately in the Statementof Activities.
EQUITY CLASSIFICATIONS
In • the government-wide statements, equity is classified as net assets anddisplayed in three components:
1. Invested in capital assets, net of related debt - consists of capitalassets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciationand reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes, orother borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, orimprovement of those assets.
2. Restricted net assets - consist of net assets with constraints placed onthe use either by (1) external groups, such as creditors, grantors,contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2) lawthrough constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
3. Unrestricted net assets - all other net assets that do not meet thedefinition of "restricted" or "invested in capital assets, net of relateddebt."
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund equity is classified as fundbalance. Fund balance is further classified as reserved and unreserved, withunreserved further split between designated and undesignated. Proprietary fundequity is classified the same as in the government-wide statements.
INTERFUND RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individualfunds that may result in amounts owed between funds. Those related to goods andservices type transactions are classified as Mdue to and from other funds."Short-term interfund loans are reported as "interfund receivables and payables."Interfund receivables and payables betwee.n funds within governmental activitiesare eliminated in the Statement of Net Assets.
CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Louisiana statues authorize the Agency to invest in direct United States Treasuryobligations; bonds, debentures, notes, or other evidence of indebtedness issued orguaranteed by federal agencies and backed by the United States; bonds, debentures,notes, or other evidence of indebtedness issued or guaranteed by United Statesgovernment instrumentalities, which are federally sponsored; and certificates ofdeposits.

CASH AND INVESTMENTS (Continued)
Bank deposits must be secured by federal depository insurance or the pledge ofsecurities owned by the bank. The market value of the pledged securities must atall times equal or exceed 100 percent of the uninsured amount on deposit with thebank.
At July 31, 2007, the carrying amount of the Agency's deposits was $58,037. Thebank balance of cash was $140,470, all of which is covered by federal depositoryinsurance.
CAPITAL ASSETS
The accounting treatment over property, plant and equipment (capital assets)depends on whether they are used in governmental fund operations or proprietaryfund operations and whether they are reported in the government-wide or fundfinancial statements.
Prior to GASB No. 34, governments were not required to report generalinfrastructure assets. St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency did notcapitalize infrastructure expenditures.
In the government-wide financial statements, capital assets are capitalized athistorical cost, or estimated historical cost if actual is unavailable, except fordonated assets, which are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date ofdonation. Community Action Agency maintains a threshold level of $250 or more forcapitalizing capital assets.
Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expensein the Statement of Activities, with accumulated depreciation reflected in theStatement of Net Assets. Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimateduseful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation. The range ofestimated useful lives by type of asset is as follows:
Buildings and improvements 20 - 40 yearsFurniture and equipment 5 - 2 5 yearsVehicles 5 - 1 5 years
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of theasset or materially extend asset lives are not capitalized.
Interest costs on construction, if any, are not capitalized.
ENCUMBRANCES/
Encumbrance accounting is not used by the St. Landry Parish Community ActionAgency.
INVENTORY
St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency practices the policy of recordingmaterials and supplies as expenditures when acquired. These items are notrecorded as inventory because the amount of the items in stock is insignificant.

BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency prepared a budget for its General Fundon the modified accrual basis of accounting.
St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency adopts budgets for its Special RevenueFunds on a program year basis instead of on the fiscal year of the Agency.Budgets required by funding agencies are prepared on a modified accrual basis ofaccounting. The budgets are adopted on a contract basis with various governmentalbodies. Operating appropriations, to the extent not expended, lapse at year-end.Formal budgetary integration is employed as part of the accounting system.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally acceptedaccounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions thataffect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingentassets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reportedamounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual resultscould differ from those estimates.

Russell J. Stelly, CPAREPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL 2005
REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDITOF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
St. Landry Parish Community Action AgencyOpelousas, Louisiana
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmentalactivities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of St.Landry Parish Community Action Agency, Opelousas, Louisiana as of and for the yearended July 31, 2007, which collectively comprise the Agency's basic financialstatements and have issued our report thereon dated January 29, 2008. We conductedour audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the UnitedStates of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained inGovernment Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the UnitedStates.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the St. Landry Parish CommunityAction Agency's internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designingour auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financialstatements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectivenessof the Agency's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do notexpress an opinion on the effectiveness of the Agency's internal control overfinancial reporting.
A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does notallow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assignedfunctions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significantdeficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, thatadversely affects the Agency's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, orreport financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accountingprinciples such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement ofthe Agency's financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not beprevented or detected by the Agency's internal control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significantdeficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a materialmisstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected by theAgency's internal control.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limitedpurpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarilyidentify all deficiencies in internal control that might be significantdeficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies ininternal control over financial reporting that we consider to be materialweaknesses, as defined above.

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the St. Landry ParishCommunity Action Agency's financial statements are free of 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 andmaterial effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However,providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective ofour audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of ourtests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required tobe reported under Government Auditing Standards.
We noted certain matters that we reported to management of the St. Landry ParishCommunity Action Agency, in a separate letter dated January 29, 2008.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management andfederal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be andshould not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

WITH OMB CIRCULAR A- 13 3
St. Landry Parish Community Action AgencyOpelousas, Louisiana
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency withthe types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Managementand Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to eachof its major federal programs for the year ended July 31, 2007. The St. LandryParish Community Action Agency's major federal programs are identified in thesummary of auditor ' s results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings andQuestioned Costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contractsand grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is the responsibilityof the Agency ' s management . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on theSt. Landry Parish Community Action Agency's compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standardsgenerally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable tofinancial audits contained in Government s Auditing Standards , issued by theComptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States,Local Governments , and Nonprofit Organizations . Those standards and OMB CircularA-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assuranceabout whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred toabove that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal programoccurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the St.Landry Parish Community Action Agency's compliance with those requirements andperforming such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances .We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our auditdoes not provide a legal determination on the St . Landry Parish Community ActionAgency's compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, the St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency complied, in allmaterial respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable toeach of its major federal programs for the year ended July 31, 2007.
Internal Control over Compliance
The management of the St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency is responsible forestablishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with therequirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federalprograms. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Agency's internalcontrol over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and materialeffect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for

the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance, but not for the purpose ofexpressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance.Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Agency'sinternal control over compliance.
A control deficiency in an entity's internal control over compliance exists whenthe design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in thenormal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detectnoncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on atimely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination ofcontrol deficiencies, that adversely affects the entity's ability to administer afederal program such that there is more than a remote likelihood that noncompliancewith a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is more thaninconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significantdeficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that materialnoncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will notbe prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purposedescribed in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identifyall deficiencies in internal control that might be significant deficiencies ormaterial weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control overcompliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.
The St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency's response to findings identified inour audit is described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and QuestionedCosts. We did not audit the Agency's response and, accordingly, we express noopinion on it.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the management,federal awarding agencies, pass-through entities, and the Legislative Auditor andis not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specifiedparties. Under Louisiana Revised Statute 24:513, this report is distributed by thelegislative auditor as a public document.

As part of our examination, we have issued our report on the financial statements dated January29, 2008, and our report on internal control and compliance with laws, regulations, and contractsdated January 29,2008.
During our audit, we became aware of the following matters which represent suggestions forimproved internal controls.
Internal Controls
2007-1 Interfund Receivables and Pavables
Condition: The St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency's interfund receivable and payablebalances.
Criteria: The St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency should employ a revised cashmanagement procedure to reduce the balances of interfund receivables and payables.
Cause: Because of a delay in funding from federal and state agencies, interfund loans are set upto cover expenses that have already occurred.
Effect: The uncertainty surrounding the amount of program revenues to be received in the futurecould prevent the St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency from eliminating the interfundbalances.
Recommendation: The St. Landry Parish Community Action Agency should reduce its interfundreceivable and payable balances.
