Independent Accountant's Review Report
To the Mayor and Board of Aldermen Village of Angie, Louisiana
We have reviewed the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, and each major fund of the Village of Angie as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011, which collectively comprise the Village's basic fmancial statements as listed in the table of contents, and the accompanying supplementary information in this report, which are presented only for supplementary analysis purposes. A revievv includes primarily applying analytical procedures to management's financial data and making inquiries of Village's management. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation ofthe financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation ofthe financial statements.
Our responsibility is to conduct the review in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require us to perfonn procedures to obtain limited assurance that there are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements. We believe that tlie results of our procedures provide a reasonable basis for our report.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounfing principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The management's discussion and analysis and budgetary comparison information are not a required part ofthe basic fmancial statements, but are supplementary information required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Such information has not been subjected to the inquiry and analytical procedures applied in the review of the basic fmancial statements, but was compiled from information that is the representation of management, without audit or review. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other fonn of assurance on the supplementary information.

Village of Angie
Management's Discussion and Analysis As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
Introduction
The Village of Angie (the Village) is pleased to present its Annual Financial Statements developed in compliance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements - Management's Discussion and Analysis - For State and Local Governments (GASB 34), and related standards.
The Village's discussion and analysis is designed to (a) assist the reader in focusing on significant financial issues, (b) provide an overview ofthe Village's financial activity, (c) idenfify changes in the Village's financial position, (d) identify any significant variations from the Village's financial plan, and (e) identify individual fund issues or concerns.
Since Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is designed to focus on the current year's activities, resulting changes, and currently known facts, please read it in conjunction with the Village's financial statements in this report.
Financial Highlights
• At December 31, 2011, the Village's assets exceeded its liabilifies by $827,717 (net assets). Of this amount, $550,415 (unrestricted net assets) may be used to meet the Village's ongoing obligations to its citizens.
• For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Village's total net assets decreased by $(4,685). Revenues consist of ad valorem taxes, sales taxes, a refund on landfill operation and fines and other fees, along with revenue from water sales in business type activifies. Total revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31,2011 were $233,689.
• At December 31, 2011, the Village's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $465,612, a decrease of $83,221 for the year.
• At December 31, 2011, the Village's proprietary funds reported combined ending net assets of $310,100, an increase of $85,987 for the year. This increase included $60,725 of transfers in from govemmental funds used for capital assets. Of total ending net assets in the utility fund, approximately twenty-seven percent, or $84,803, is available for spending at the Village's discretion (unrestricted net assets).
Overview ofthe Annual Financial Report
The financial statement focus is on both the Village as a whole and on the major individual funds. Both perspectives, govemment-wide and major funds, allow the user to address relevant questions, broaden a basis for comparison, and enhance the Village's accountability. The statements then proceed to provide an increasingly detailed look at specific fmancial activifies.
The MD&A is intended to serve as an introduction to the Village's basic financial statements, which consist of three components: (1) government-wide financial statements, (2) fund financial statements, and (3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.
Village of Angie
Management's Discussion and Analysis As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The govemment-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Village's finances in a manner similar to a private-sector business. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, and business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support are presented in separate columns along with a total column for the primary govemment. If the Village determines that presentation of a component unit (which are other governmental units for which the Village can exercise significant influences or for which the Primary Government financial statements would be misleading if component unit information is not presented) is necessary to allow the reader to determine the relationship ofthe component unit and primary government, the component unit information is presented in a separate column ofthe financiai statements or in a separate footnote. For the current fiscal year, the Village of Angie has no component units.
The Statement of Net Assets presents information on the Village's assets and liabilities using the accrual basis of accounting, in a manner similar to the accounting used by private business enterprises. The difference between the assets and liabilities is reported as net assets. Over time, the increases or decreases in net assets and changes in the components of net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the fmancial position ofthe Village is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents infonnation showing how the Village's net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year, focusing on both the gross and net costs of various activities, both govemmental and business-type, that are supported by the Village's general tax and other revenues. This is intended to summarize and simplify the reader's analysis ofthe cost of various govemmental services and/or subsidy to various business-type activities.
In both ofthe govemment-wide financial statements, the Village's activities are divided into two types:
• Govemmental activities - Most of the Village's basic services are reported here, including general government, public safety, streets, health and welfare, and culture and recreation. These acfivities are financed primarily by property taxes, franchise taxes, sales taxes, and fines.
• Business-type activities - The Village charges a fee to customers to help it cover all of the cost of the services provided. The Village's water system and sanitafion activities are reported in this secfion.
Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The Village, like other state and local governments, uses fiind accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related and legal requirements. The Village uses two categories of funds to account for financial transactions: governmental funds and proprietary funds. Traditional users of govemmental financial statements will find the fund financial statements presentation more familiar.
Village of Angie
Management's Discussion and Analysis As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
Governmental funds are used to account for most of the Village's basic services. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on how money fiows into and out of those funds and the balances that are left at year-end that are available for spending. These funds are reported using the modified accrual basis of accounting, which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view ofthe Village's general govemment operations and the basic services it provides. Govemmental fund information helps to detennine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the Village's programs.
Proprietary funds account for water utility and sanitation services provided by the Village to its customers. Proprietary funds statements provide the same type of information as the govemment-wide financial statements, but the fund presentation provides more detail.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that ofthe government-wide financial statements, there are differences in the information presented for government funds and for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. Review of these differences provides the reader of the financial statements insight on the long-term impact ofthe Village's more immediate decisions on the current use of financial resources. Both the govemmental fund Balance Sheet and the govemmental fiand Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and govemmental activities.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

The composition of net assets and the change in net assets over time serves as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. Net assets from governmental activities decreased $90,672 in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011 and net assets from business-type activities increased $85,987. The largest category of net assets is "Unrestricted Net Assets" totaling $550,415 or 66 percent of net assets. These assets are available to meet the ongoing needs ofthe Village. The remaining net assets are "Invested in Capital Assets Net of Related Debf totaling $277,302 or 34 percent of net assets. This category reflects the total invested in capital assets (land, buildings, and equipment) net of any related debt used to acquire the capital assets. These capital assets are used to provide services to citizens and do not represent assets available for future spending.

Management's Discussion and Analysis As of and for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Fund Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, the Village uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental Funds The focus ofthe Village's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Village's financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of the Village's net resources available for spending at the end ofthe year.
At the end ofthe current year, the Village's govemmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $465,612. Inside this amount $176,292 was unassigned and available for spending at the Village's discretion. This represents a decrease of $83,221, or fifteen percent ofthe prior year's ending balances. However before transfers to the utility fund, the decrease was only four percent.
The general fund is the chief operafing fund ofthe Village. At the end of the current year, the total fund balance for the general fund was $188,002, $176,292 of this amount was unassigned.
Proprietary Funds The Village's proprietary fimds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The Village has a formal policy on adopting a budget. The Village prepares the budget on the modified accrual basis of accounting. The Village adopted its 2011 budget in December 7, 2010 and amended its 2011 budget and adopted its 2012 budget in a meeting on December 5, 2011. The mayor and board of aldermen review the budget to actual financial figures on a monthly basis. All appropriations lapse at year end.
The following is a comparison ofthe final budget to actual expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2011.

General fund and Sales tax fund revenues were below five percent of budgeted amounts, due to miscellaneous revenues budgeted in the general fund and sales taxes in the sales tax fund. Sales tax expenditures and other uses exceeded five percent of budgeted due to unbudgeted transfers out to the utility fund to finance water system improvements.

Long-Term Debt
At December 31, 2011, the Village did not have any long term debt outstanding.
Other Factors Affecting the Village
The Village of Angle's board of aldermen actively monitors revenues and expenses. They are constantly seeking stale and or federal grants to fund improvements to the Village. Their sources of revenue are limited and any increase in the revenue sources is highly unlikely. Therefore the board's focus is on obtaining new grants, stream lining expenditures, and insuring all revenue is collected in a timely manner. The board's plan is to improve services for the voters ofthe Village of Angie without increasing the tax burden.
Contacting the Village's Financial Management

Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Introduction
The Village of Angie, Louisiana was incorporated on March of 1906 under the provisions of the Lawrason Act. The Village operates under a Mayor/Board of Aldermen form of govemment. The goveming body ofthe Village of Angie is elected by the registered voters living in the village. Elected officials include the mayor, three aldermen, and a police chief. These positions are compensated. All funds ofthe Village shall be administered by the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen. Angie is located approximately two miles south ofthe Mississippi state line. The Village is approximately 51 acres in size and services a population of approximately 241. The Village employs one part time office clerk and two part time police officers. The Village operates a water and sanitation department that serves approximately 117 customers.
Govemmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 14, The Reporting Entity, established criteria for determining the govemmental reporting entity and component units that should be included within the reporting entity. Under provisions of this statement, the Village is considered a primaiy government, since it is a special purpose government that has a separately elected governing body, is legally separate, and is fiscally independent of other state and local govemments. As used in GASB Statement No. 14, fiscally independent means that the Village may, without the approval or consent of another governmental entity, determine or modify its own budget, levy its own taxes or set rates or charges, and issue bonded debt. There are no component units which the Village of Angie has an oversight relationship.
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of nets assets and the statement of changes in net assets) report information on all nonfiduciary activities of the primary govemment and its component units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Govemmental 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. Likewise, the primary government is reported separately from certain legally separate component units for which the primary government is financially accountable.
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 ftinction 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 revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though fiduciary funds are excluded from the govemment-wide financial statements. Major individual govemmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are presented as separate columns in the fund financial statements. All ofthe Village's funds were determined to be Major Funds and were reported in the governmental funds statement. The proprietary fund is reported separately.
28
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
B. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation
The govemment-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when eamed and expenses are recorded when a liability is 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 revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financiai 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 liabililies ofthe 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. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is 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 payment is due.
Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Only the portion of special assessment receivable, if any, due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the government.
The Village of Angie reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the Village's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources ofthe general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Sales Tax Special Revenue Fund accounts for the proceeds of sales tax revenues that is legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes.
The Village of Angie reports the following major proprietary funds:
The Enterprise Funds account for operations (a) that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprise where the intent of the governing body is that costs (expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user fees, or (b) where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability, or other purposes.
Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance ofthe 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 government has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.
29
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
As a general rule, the effect of inter-fund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule, if applicable, are payments-in-lieu of taxes and other charges between the Village's enterprise operations. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
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 a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the proprietary funds are user charges for the services provided by the enterprise funds. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the Village's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
C. Deposits and Investments
The Village's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, time deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. State law and the Village's investment policy allow the Village to invest in collateralized certificates of deposit, government-backed securities, commercial paper, the state-sponsored investment pool, and mutual funds consisting solely of government-backed securities.
Investments for the Village are reported at fair market value. The state investment pool, LAMP, operates in accordance with state laws and regulations. The reported value ofthe pool is the same as the fair value of the pool shares.
D. Receivables and Payables
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end ofthe fiscal year are referred to as either "due to/from other funds" (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or "advances to/from other funds" (i.e., the non-current portion of interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as "due to/from other funds." Any residual balances outstanding between the govemmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the govemment-wide financial statements as "internal balances."
Advances between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund balance reserve account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not expendable available financial resources.
All trade and property tax receivables are shown net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts. Proceeds ofthe one percent sales and use tax levied by the Village are dedicated to "constructing and improving public roads, streets, bridges and crossings, and the extension and maintenance of sewerage and water works and other works of permanent public improvement. The proceeds are allocated equally between the general and sales tax funds.
30
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31, 2011
Property taxes are levied on a calendar year basis and become due on December 1 of each year. The following is a summary of authorized and levied ad valorem taxes:
Authorized Taxable Collected Millage Value Millage
General Corporate Purposes 5.73 mills $ 1,072,160 $ 5,751
E. Inventories and Prepaid Items
Purchase of various operating supplies are considered expenditures at the time purchased and inventories of such supplies (if any) are not recorded as assets at the close ofthe fiscal year. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in botii government-wide and fund financial statements.
F. Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of certain resources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes are classified as restricted assets because their use is limited to specified expenditures.
G. Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the govemment-wide financial statements. Capital assets are capitalized at historical cost or estimated cost if historical cost is not available. Donated assets are recorded as capital assets at their estimated fair market value at the date of donation. The municipality maintains a threshold level of $500 or more for capitalizing capital assets.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value ofthe asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of the capitalized value ofthe assets constructed.
All capital assets, other than land, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Description Estimated Lives Buildings & Improvements 20 - 40 Years Machinery and Equipment 5 - 10 Years Infrastructure 20 - 40 Years Water System 10-20 Years
31
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
H. Compensated Absences
The Village only employs part-time employees and does not have a formal leave policy.
I. Long-Term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements and the proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net assets. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life ofthe bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net ofthe applicable bond premium or discount. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over the term ofthe related debt.
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts as well as bond issuance costs during the current period. The face amount ofthe debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures. At December 31, 2011 the Village has no long term debt.
J. Fund Equity
In the govemment-wide financial statements, net assets are classified in the following categories:
• Invested in capital assets, net of related debt. This component of net assets includes capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balance of any bonds, or indebtedness attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. If there are significant unspent proceeds at year-end, the portion of the debt attributable to the unspent proceeds is not included in the calculation of invested in capital assets, net of related debt. Rather, that portion ofthe debt is included in the same net asset calculation as unspent proceeds.
• Restricted. This component of net assets consists of constraints placed on net asset use through extemal constraints imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or constraints imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
• Unrestricted. This component of net assets consists of net assets that do not meet the definition of "restricted" or "invested in capital assets, net of related debt."
In the fund statements, governmental fund equity is classified as fund balance. The Village adopted GASB 54 for the year ended December 31, 2011. As such, fund balances of govemmental funds are classified as follows:
• Nonspendable. These are amounts that can not be spent either, because they are in a nonspendable form or because they are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted. These are amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes, because of constitutional provisions, enabling legislation or constraints that are extemally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or the laws or regulations of other govemments.
32
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
• Committed. These are amounts that can be used oniy for specific purposes determined by a formal decision ofthe Board, which is the highest level of decision making authority for the Village.
• Assigned. These are amounts that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed, but are intended to be used for specific purposes.
• Unassigned. These are all other spendable amounts.
K. Comparative Data/Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in the prior year data have been reclassified in order to be consistent with the current year's presentation.
L. Extraordinary and Special Items
Extraordinary items are transactions or events that are both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence. Special items are transactions or events within the control ofthe municipality, which are either unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence.
M. Estimates
The preparafion of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
N. Reconciliations of Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
Explanation of certain differences between the govemmental fund balance sheet and the government-wide statement of net assets is presented in Statement D of the basic financial statements. Explanation of certain differences between the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in fund balances and the govemment-wide statement of activities is presented in Statement F of the basic financial statements.
2. Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability
The Village uses the following budget practices:
1. The Village Clerk prepares a proposed budget and submits same to the Mayor and Board of Aldermen no later than fifteen days prior to the beginning of each fiscal year.
2. A summary ofthe proposed budget is published and the public notified that the proposed budget is available for public inspection. At the same time, a public hearing is called.
3. A public hearing is held on the proposed budget at least ten days after publication ofthe call for the hearing.
4. After the holding ofthe public hearing and completion of all action necessary to finalize and implement the budget, the budget is adopted through passage of an ordinance prior to the commencement ofthe fiscal year for which the budget is being adopted.
33
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
5. Budgetary amendments involving the transfer of funds from one department, program or function to another or involving the increase in expenditures resulting from revenues exceeding amounts estimated, require the approval ofthe Board of Aldermen.
6. All budgetary appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year.
7. Budgets for the general and enterprise funds are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Budgets for enterprise funds are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. Other governmental funds are presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, the budgetary comparison schedules present actual expenditures in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States on a basis consistent with the legally adopted budgets as amended. All budgetary amounts presented reflect the original budget and the amended budget (which have been adjusted for legally authorized revisions ofthe annua! budget during the year).
The proposed budget for December 31, 2011, was made available for public Inspection on December 7, 2010, upon presentation to the board of aldermen. The proposed budget was prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting and was adopted at tlie Village's December 7, 2010 special meefing. The budget was amended at the Village's special meeting December 5, 2011.
General fund and Sales Tax Fund revenues were below five percent of budgeted amounts in violation of the Local Govemment Budget Act.
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
At December 31, 2011, the Village has cash and cash equivalents (book balances) as follows:
December 31, 2011
Cash and Cash Equivalents Demand Deposits $ 75,251 Louisiana Asset Management Pool 166,196
Investments Time Deposits 255,042
$ 496,489
These deposits are stated at cost, which approximates market. Under state law, these deposits (or the resulting bank balances) must be secured by federal deposit insurance or the pledge of securities owned by the fiscal agent bank. The market value ofthe pledged securities plus the federal deposit insurance must at all times equal the amount on deposit with the fiscal agent. These securities are held in the name ofthe pledging fiscal agent bank in a holding or custodial bank that is mutually acceptable to both parties.
At December 31, 2011, the municipality has $331,776 in deposits (collected bank balances), consisting of $76,734 in demand deposits and $255,042 in certificates of deposits. These deposits are secured from risk by $250,000 of federal deposit insurance, however the Village did not obtain pledged securities held by the custodial bank in the name ofthe fiscal agent bank (GASB Category 3) for the excess $5,042 in time deposits above the $250,000 limitation on time deposits.
34
Village of Angie Notes to the Financial Statements
As of and for the Year Ended December 31,2011
The investment in the Louisiana Asset Management Pool (LAMP), an external investment pool, is stated at the value ofthe pool shares, which is the same as the fair value. LAMP is administered by LAMP, Inc., a non-profit corporation organized under the laws ofthe State of Louisiana. Only local govemment entities having contracted to participate in LAMP have an investment interest in its pool of assets. While LAMP is not required to be a registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, its investment policies are similar to those established by Rule 2a7, which governs registered money market funds. The primary objective of LAMP is to provide a safe environment for the placement of public funds in short-term, high quality investments. The LAMP portfolio includes only securities and other obligations in which locai governments in Louisiana are authorized to invest in accordance with LSA-R.S. 33:2955.
GASB 40, Deposit and Investment Risk Disclosure, requires disclosure of credit risk, custodial credit risk, concentration of credit risk interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk for all public entity investments.
LAMP is a 2a7 - like investment pool. The following facts are relevant for 2a7 like investment pools:
• Credit risk: LAMP is rated AAAm by Standards and Poor's • Custodial credit risk: LAMP participants' investments in the pool are evidenced by shares ofthe
pool. Investments in pools should be disclosed, but not categorized because they are not evidenced by securities that exist in physical or book-entry form. The public entity's investment is with the pool, not the securities that make up the pool; therefore, no disclosure is required.
• Concentration of credit risk: Pooled investments are excluded from the five percent disclosure requirement.
• Interest rate risk: 2a7-like investment pools are excluded from this disclosure requirement per paragraph 15 ofthe GASB 40 statement.
• Foreign currency risk: Not applicable to 2a7-like pools.
The dollar weighted average portfolio maturity of LAMP assets is restricted to not more than 90 days, and consists of no securities with a maturity in excess of 397 days. LAMP is designed to be highly liquid to give its participants immediate access to their account balances. The investments in LAMP are stated at fair value based on quoted market rates. The fair value is determined on a weekly basis by LAMP and the value ofthe position in the extemal investment pool is the same as the value ofthe pool shares.
LAMP, Inc. is subject to the regulatory oversight ofthe state treasurer and the board of directors. LAMP is not registered with the SEC as an investment company. LAMP, inc., issues an annual publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for LAMP, Inc.

Response:
We reviewed all expenditures for fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 that were subject to the bid law. The Village was in compliance with public bid law for those expenditures.
Code of Ethics for Public Officials and Public Employees

Response:
None ofthe employees included on the list of employees provided by management in agreed-upon procedure (3) appeared on the list provided by management in agreed-upon procedure (2).
Budgeting
5. Obtained a copy ofthe legally adopted budget and all amendments.
Response:
Management provided us with a copy ofthe original budget. We were also provided with a copy ofthe amended budget for the year.
6. Trace the budget adoption and amendments to the minute book.
Response:
We traced the adoption ofthe original budget to the minutes which indicated that the budget had been adopted by the board. Amendments were made to the budget during the year and had also been adopted by the board.
7. Compare the revenues and expenditures ofthe fmal budget to actual revenues and expendimres to determine if actual revenues failed to meet budgeted revenues by five percent or more or if actual expenditures exceed budgeted amounts by five percent or more.
Response: We compared the revenues and expendimres of the final budget to actual revenues and expenditures. Actual revenues for the general fund and the sales tax fund were below budgeted amounts exceeding five percent of budgeted amounts in violation ofthe Local Government Budget Act. Actual expenditures and other financing uses in the sales tax fund also exceed budgeted amounts by more than five percent. This was due to an unbudgeted transfer out to the utility fund for water system improvements.

a. Trace payments to supporting documentation as to proper amount and payee.
b. Determine if payments were properly coded to the correct fund and general ledger account.

10. Examine bank deposits for the period under examination and determine whether any such deposits appear to be proceeds of bank loans, bonds, or like indebtedness.
Response:
The Village has no long-term debt.
Advances and Bonuses
11. Examine payroll records and minutes for the year to determine whether any payments have been made to employees, which may constitute bonuses, advances, or gifts.
Response:
A reading of the minutes of the Village and transactions reviewed for the year indicated no payments to employees which would constitute bonuses, advances, or gifts.
The prior year report did not include any comments or unresolved matters.
We were not engaged to, and did not, perform an examination, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion on management's assertions. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported to you.
This report is intended solely for the use of management ofthe Village of Angie and the Legislative Auditor, State of Louisiana, and should not be used by those who have not agreed to the procedures and taken responsibility for the sufficiency ofthe procedures for their purposes.
