GASB No. 72 – Fair Value Definition Current GASB The amount at which an investment could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. GASB No. 72 Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

GASB No. 72 – Assets other than Investments Other Measurement Changes Acquisition value is the price that would be paid to acquire an asset with equivalent service potential or the amount for which a liability could be liquidated at the acquisition date. For the assets noted above, an entry- price measurement is more appropriate than an exist- price measurement because the transaction represents the government acquiring the asset.

GASB No. 72 – Disclosure Requirements APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 15 Current GASBGASB No. 72 Methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of investments, if fair value is based on other than quoted market prices No change. Disclosure of credit risk, custodial credit risk, and interest rate risk No change. The disclosures generally should be made for the primary government, including its blended component units. Risk disclosures also should be made for governmental and business-type activities, individual major funds, nonmajor funds in the aggregate or fiduciary fund types when the risk exposures are significantly greater than the deposit and investment risks of the primary government. The level of detail and disaggregation, and how much emphasis to place on each disclosure requirement, should take into account the following considerations: Nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability Level of the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorized Whether this statement or another statement specifies a type for an asset or a liability Objective or the mission of the government Characteristics of the government Relative significance of assets and liabilities Whether separately issued financial statements are available Line items presented in the statement of net position

GAAP Reporting Reminders For FY 2015-16 APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 19
20
Reminders: Equipment Financing Agreements Equipment financing agreements must be reviewed carefully to differentiate a “purchase” vs. “lease” of asset. It was determined that a significant amount ($56M) of long-term debt obligations pertain to equipment financing agreements. These agreements are covered by a master financing agreement handled by Financing & Treasury at the CO. APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 20
21
Reminders: Equipment Financing Agreements Based on the terms of the agreement, this should be accounted for as capitalized lease obligations (rather than long-term debt obligations). Campus should to the following: a. Reclassify the beginning balance in GAAP ledger b. Current activities should be recorded as capitalized lease obligations c. Impacts Notes 6, 7, and 8 of the YES Reporting Package d. Explanation for significant fluctuation would be “due to reclassification of long-term debt obligations to capitalized lease obligations for equipment leases after further review of the terms of the agreement”. APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 21
22
Reminders: Passdown Schedules APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 22 Passdown schedules will no longer be posted in the SFSR website. Starting FY15-16, the passdown schedules (including prior years) will be available in the PBC SharePoint site under a separate library.
23
Reminders: Component Units (New/Dissolved) Campus must inform SFSR if there are: A. Newly formed component unit(s) i. Brief description of the component unit(s) ii. Submit GASB No. 61 questionnaire (blended vs. discrete) iii. Submit Auxiliary External Auditor Qualification Questionnaire iv. Contact person(s) to be included in email listserv B. Dissolved component unit(s) i. Timing and reason for the dissolution ii. Last fiscal year to be audited The information will be used to update the YES (TM1) structure, disclosures and tracking of stand-alone audits. APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 23
24
Reminders: Input Sheets–Auxiliaries in TM1 Common errors identified in the “Input Sheets- Auxiliaries” are due to the following: a. Account balances are entered into the wrong F/S line item in TM1. b. Account balances do not agree with the supplementary information of the audited F/S. c. Unreconciled transactions between campus and discretely presented component units (Notes 3.3 and 14 in YES Input Sheets – Campus). APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 24
25
Reminders: Input Sheets–Auxiliaries in TM1 Unresolved differences within “Notes” input sheet in YES. Note 11 Prior Period Adjustments are not properly completed (also included in Chapter 7) APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 25
26
Reminders: Input Sheets–FN5.1 Composition of capital assets Do not enter any amount in the prior period adjustment column unless it is a systemwide entry instructed by CO.

27
Reminders: Input Sheets–FN14 Transactions with Related Entities Minimize unreconciled differences with related entities like discretely presented component units. Prior to issuance of the component unit’s audited financial statements, campus should reconcile all account balances with component units. This will prevent potential reissuance of the component units’ financial statements if variances are significant. If possible, get a draft copy of the supplemental schedules of the component unit for advance review. APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 27
28
Reminders: Input Sheets–FN16 Elimination of Nonexchange Transactions The format of the journal entry to be input in this section should be in the format as referenced in Chapter 4.6.1 Elimination. APRIL 2016 YEAR-END GAAP TRAINING 28
