(ii) No provision is made to record the liability for retirement and/or sick leave benefits accruing over the working lives of employees. â€" (b) Capital Assets â€" Capital assets are expensed unless they are to be financed by longâ€"term debt. Principal and interâ€" est charges on net longâ€"term liabilities are included as expenditures in the period due. Capital assets, including capital leases, described as capital outlay to be recovered in future years, are included on the balance sheet only to the extent of the balances of the related net longâ€"term liabilâ€" ities outstanding and of the related temporary financing at the yearâ€"end. Reserves and Reserve Funds â€" Reserves and reserve funds represent funds appropriated for general and specific purposes and are charged or credited to Revenue Fund Operations in the year appropriated or drawn down. ghfin m:;(;::mtt; in Reserves and Reserve funds are approved by the Board and are within the limits efine e Education Act. Under/Over Requisition of Taxes â€" The difference between the net expenditures of any year and the amounts received to finance these expenditures is carried forward to the subsequent year to either increase or reduce the net revenue requirement from ratepayers. Deferred Charges â€" Computers purchased for administrative purposes are stated at cost less amortization. Amortization is on a blended monthly basis over four to five years. The Workers‘ Compensation Board‘s special assessment for the Board to change from a Schedule 1 to Schedule 2 employer is stated at cost less amortization. Amortization is on a blended monthly basis over four years. 2. RETIREMENT GRATUITY PLANS The Retirement Gratuity Plans established by the Board provide for the payment of a gratuity to ent?)loyees who have a minimum of ten consecutive years service with the Board immediately prior to retirement on pension by reason of age or ill health. The amount of gratuig' payment is determined by the employee‘s years of service, number of cumulative sick leave days and annual salary. The benefit payable to an employee is equal to the lesser of fifty er annual salary or a maximum amount as set for Retirement $1,476,876). The estimated unfunded liability of the plans at December 31, 1993 of $6,250,000, is based on the liabilâ€" ity which would occur if all employees who were entitled to a gratuity had retired at the end of 1993.

AUDITORS‘ REPORT To the Trustees of The Halton Board of Education We have audited the Balance Sheet of The Halton Board of Education as at December 31, 1993, the Revenue Fund Statement of Operations and the Cagital Fund Statement of Operations for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the school board‘s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. As explained in note 6, the Board is amortizing the Workers‘ Compensation Board special assessment over a four year period. Generally accepted accounting principles require that such expenditure be recorded in the year it is incurred. Had the expenditure been recorded entirely in 1993, net expenditure would have been increased and the overâ€"requisition carried forward to 1994 would have been reduced by $1,454,947. In our opinion, except for the nonâ€"observance of generally accepted accounting principles and the effects thereof gescrlbed in the preceding paragraph, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of tl‘:: Boarg as at December 31, 1993 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting principles described in note 1 to the financial statements.
