HomeMy WebLinkAboutCS 32-10 Report To Council 8 9 PICKERING Report Number: Cs 32-10 Date: September 13, 2010 From: Gillis A. Paterson Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer Subject: 2009 Year End Audit Recommendations: 1. That Report CS 32-10 of the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer be received; 2. That the Audit Results Report, including the auditor's independence letter and management letter, as submitted by Deloitte & Touche LLP be received for information; and 3. That the 2009 draft Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the City of Pickering be approved. Executive Summary: This report provides the auditor's Audit Results report, independence letter, management letter and the draft Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. Again this year, the auditor has provided an unqualified opinion on the financial statements. The 2009 statements are significantly different from prior years due to the implementation of new presentation standards and the introduction of mandatory reporting of tangible capital assets as discussed in the background of this report. Financial Implications: The financial results for 2009 were once again favourable. However these results, as in prior years, are primarily a result of one-time occurrences and cannot be relied upon to continue year after year to produce these favourable results. Sustai.nability Implications: This report does not contain any sustainability implications. Background: The audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 has been completed. The auditor's Report to Council - Audit Report CS 32-10 Date: September 13, 2010 2009 Year-End Audit Page 2 90 Results is included as Attachment 1 and also includes the auditor's independence letter and management letter. This report, prepared by Deloitte & Touche LLP, summarizes the results of the December 31, 2009 audit and comments on significant matters regarding the audit or other matters they may believe to be of interest to you. Nothing of significance was noted. On an annual basis, the auditor is required to communicate all relationships between the City and the firm that may impact on their independence to the City. The independence letter in Appendix 1 of the attachment confirms that Deloitte & Touche LLP is independent with respect to the City. As you are aware, the scope of the audit does not include an in-depth evaluation of all systems or internal controls; however, the auditors may report on matters that come to their attention during the course of their review. These observations and recommendations are provided in the management letter in Appendix 2 of Attachment 1. As in previous years, the auditor has addressed the management letter as confidential; however,,after reviewing the content, management did not deem it necessary to report it to Council on a confidential basis. As we have done in the past, management's responses have been included to provide our planned course of action or to explain our position in addressing these recommendations. The draft Audited Consolidated Financial Statements are included as Attachment 2. These statements are the responsibility of management and have been prepared by City accounting staff under the direction of the Director, Corporate Services & Treasurer. Deloitte & Touche LLP are responsible to express an opinion on these Consolidated Financial Statements based on its audit. An unqualified opinion has been provided. The Consolidated Financial Statements includes the activities of the City of Pickering Public Library Board. The City's investment in Veridian Corporation is accounted for on a modified equity basis which means the City includes its share of Veridian's income or loss in the Consolidated Financial Statements. For the 2009 fiscal reporting period, the City implemented the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) financial statement presentation standards as prescribed in PS 1200, Financial Statement Presentation. Furthermore, the City changed its accounting policy related to the treatment of tangible capital assets to comply with PS 3150, Tangible Capital Assets. Tangible capital assets, such as land, building, infrastructure and equipment are now capitalized (recorded) at cost on the Statement of. Financial Position (Balance Sheet) and amortized (depreciated) over their estimated useful lives in current operating expenses. Both these changes have significantly altered the format of the financial statements. The Statement of Financial Position now includes tangible capital assets under the non- financial asset section and shows Accumulated Surplus instead of Fund Balances and Amounts to be Recovered which were previously reported. The Statement of Operations no longer shows capital expenditures which is further explained below. Report CS 32-10 Date: September 13, 2010 2009 Year-End Audit Page 3 91 Statement of Financial Position Financial assets are those assets which could provide resources to discharge existing liabilities or finance future operations. Net financial assets increased slightly over the prior year which was due to an increase in financial assets of approximately $2.1 million offset by an increase in liabilities of approximately $1.3 million. These year over year fluctuations are part of day to day business and there is not one significant contributing factor to these increases. The 2009 consolidated financial statements include a new statement called the "Statement of Changes in Net Financial Assets" which explains the increase in net financial assets year over year. Non-financial assets now includes a line for tangible capital assets which is the net book value (cost less accumulated amortization) of the City owned assets including land, buildings, roads, bridges & sidewalks infrastructure, storm sewer infrastructure, furniture and fixtures, vehicles and equipment. Non-financial assets are not available to discharge existing liabilities and are held for use in the provision of services. They have useful lives extending beyond the current year and are not intended for sale in the ordinary course of operations Statement of Operations The most significant change on this statement is the reporting for capital budget expenditures which are no longer shown on the Statement of Operations as capital expenditures. For those expenditures that meet the definition of a tangible capital asset (TCA), the cost is now reported on the Statement of Financial Position (Balance Sheet). Only a portion of the asset's cost is included as an amortization expense each year over the life of the asset in the operating expenses reported on the Statement of Operations. The amortization expense is included in operating expenses for the asset's respective functional category. For example, amortization on a fire truck is included under the Protection to Persons and Property category. Capital budget expenditures that do not meet the TCA definition are included as operating expenses under the appropriate functional category. The budget figures reported also needed to be adjusted to reflect the change in reporting for capital budget expenditures. Note 18 of the City's consolidated financial statements reflects the changes made to the 2009 Council approved budget to put it on a basis consistent with the full accrual basis of accounting which incorporates tangible capital asset reporting. As always, the revenue reported includes both operating and capital. Therefore, variances between budget to actual may arise due to timing of approval in the capital budget and actual receipt of funds/recognition of revenue. This is clearly illustrated with Report CS 32-10 Date: September 13, 2010 2009 Year-End Audit Page 4 92 the Government grants and fees revenue item. This amount includes provincial and federal grant monies for both current and capital budget expenditures. The higher budget figure compared to actual is primarily due to the $10 million budget for the 401 Pedestrian Bridge project approved in the 2009 Capital Budget. As you are aware, this project is now being constructed by the Province and is no longer a City project. Therefore, the actual revenue is much lower than the budget. Overall, the actual expenses are comparable with the budget. Accumulated Surplus As noted above, the accumulated surplus replaces the Fund balances and Amounts to be Recovered that were reported on the face of the Statement of Financial Position under the old Financial Statement format. The components that make up this balance are disclosed in Note 12 of the City's consolidated financial statements and are summarized below. It must be emphasized that these amounts are not surplus funds in the traditional sense. The accumulated surplus balance essentially represents the difference between assets and liabilities of the City. What primarily contributes to this balance are the tangible capital assets of approximately $186.2 million and the City's equity in Veridian Corporation of approximately $67.9 million. The table below breaks down the new definition of accumulated surplus into the components used in prior years. Operating fund $ 125,089 Fund Balance - old format Capital fund 8,935,216 Fund Balance - old format Reserves and reserve funds 28,417,249 Fund Balance - old format Equity in Veridian Corporation 67,894,665 Fund Balance - old format Tangible capital assets .186,242,634 New Post employment benefits liability (2,536,100) Amts to be Recovered- old format WSIB benefit liabilities (1,368,198) Amts to be Recovered- old format Internal loans (2,299,828) Amts to be Recovered- old format Net long-term liabilities (14,219,970) Amts to be Recovered- old format $271,190,757 Attachments: 1.

The Corporation of the City of Pickering - 4 2009 Report to Council 99 Audit findings Management judgments and accounting estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to exercise judgment and utilize assumptions to make estimates. The key.areas where management estimates are required are as follows: • Post employment benefit liability and WSIB benefit liabilities; • Allowance for significant property tax appeals; • Allowance for doubtful accounts receivable; • Accrued liabilities; • Self-Insurance claims accruals; Contingent liabilities - litigation; and • Tangible Capital Assets Post employment benefit liability and WSIB benefit liabilities Management uses the assistance of an actuary in determining the post-employment benefits liability and the WSIB benefit liabilities. The amounts recorded in the financial statements were based on the January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2008 valuations, respectively, which were extrapolated to estimate the December 31, 2009 recorded amounts. Property tax appeals and doubtful accounts receivable Management makes estimates for significant property tax appeals and the provision for doubtful accounts receivable. Management makes these estimates based on the information available, at a point in time, when preparing the financial statements. Accrued liabilities Management is required to make estimates, mainly for services received to December 31, where invoices for such work have not been received prior to when the accounting records are finalized. In addition, estimates made and recorded in the prior year are trued up to actual in the current year. The true up amount, if any, is recorded when it is known. Self-Insurance Claims Accrual An accrual is made for legal expenses incurred by Cowan for insurance claims/cases which have not yet been settled. This estimate is made based on an open claims schedule sent to the City by Cowan. The Corporation of the City of Pickering - 5 2009 Report to Council 100 Audit findings. (continued) Management judgments and accounting estimates (continued) Contingent liabilities - litigation When preparing the consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates relating to litigation based on the information available, at a point in time. As disclosed in Note 17 to the financial statements, the City recognizes liabilities in the financial statements related to litigation when management and legal counsel have assessed the outcome of the legal claim as likely and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Management has determined that the outcome of any legal . actions outstanding as at the reporting date is not determinable and accordingly, no provision has been made in the consolidated financial statements. Tangible capital assets In the 2009 financial statements it was necessary for management to make estimates in the implementation of "PS3150 - Tangible Capital Assets" in order to determine certain inventories, valuations and remaining useful lives of classes of municipal assets. Overall, we believe the accounting policies selected and the application thereof to be appropriate for the City. Estimates and assumptions used have been assessed against standard practice and appear to be reasonable. The Corporation of the City of Pickering - 6 2009 Report to Council 101 Audit findings (continued) Adjusted differences An adjustment was made by management as a result of our audit work with respect to the recording of subdivision assets which were assumed by the City pursuant to subdivision agreements. The implementation of the new accounting standards on Tangible Capital Assets requires that contributed/assumed assets be recorded as revenue with a corresponding capital asset addition recorded at the fair value on the date of contribution. Although certain of these assets had been considered in the January 1, 2008 opening balance of tangible capital assets (and for the fiscal years 2008 and 2009), there was an adjustment required to correct the cut off between the years and to recognize revenue in 2009 for contributions in that year. There were no assets assumed in 2008. Unadjusted difference No unadjusted differences were noted during our audit. The Corporation of the City of Pickering - 7 2009 Report to Council 102 Areas of audit focus On October 13, 2009 we reported to you our planned key areas of audit focus.

Our audit was designed to provide a basis for formulating an opinion as to whether the consolidated financial statements present fairly in all material respects, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial position, results of operations and changes in financial position of the City. As part of our examination we reviewed and evaluated the design and implementation of certain entity level controls and business cycle controls in order to assess audit risk in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. The main purpose of our review of controls was to assist in determining the nature, extent and timing of our audit tests and to establish the degree of reliance, which we could place on selected controls; it was not to determine whether internal controls were adequate for the City's purposes. The scope of such a review of internal controls is not sufficient to express an opinion as to the effectiveness or efficiency of the City's internal controls. While the audit did not include an in-depth evaluation of all systems of internal controls or all aspects of any individual system and should not therefore be relied upon to identify all significant internal control weaknesses, or all errors, irregularities or inefficiencies that might occur, we undertake to report such matters to you when they come to our attention. We have included as an attachment our observations and recommendations as well as management responses. We would like to thank management and staff of the City for their assistance and co-operation during the audit. Yours truly, LID" lbvu Chartered Accountants Licensed Public Accountants I 111 The Corporation of the City of Pickering Management letter comments December 31, 2009 Page 1 of 2 1. Variance analysis Observation During our audit of expenses, it was noted that a budget to actual comparison was not being performed for one particular cost centre. We understand that staff turnover in the department was a contributing factor. This control weakness was detected by Finance staff after a significant variance from budget had built up in the cost centre. Recommendation We recommend that appropriate departmental staff regularly perform budget-to-actual variance analyses for their respective cost centres on a timely basis. Management's response It is the responsibility of the appropriate staff in each department to monitor the budget to actual expenditures throughout the year. They should then be advising their respective Supervisors of any variances, their Department Head and if significant, the Treasurer. Staff have access to review their accounts and run reports from the General Ledger system at any time during the course of the year. Accounting staff also distribute a month end budget to actual report to departments for review. In addition, Finance staff complete a high level review of budget to actual variances 3 times a year and follow up with appropriate staff when significant variances are found. Finance staff will remind departments the importance of monitoring the budget to actual variances on a timely basis. 112 The Corporation of the City of Pickering Management letter comments December 31, 2009 Page 2 of 2 2. Tangible capital assets Observation In 2009, the City adopted the requirements of PS3150 "Tangible Capital Assets"(TCA). This accounting standard represents a significant change in the way municipalities are required to account for their TCA. The staff of the City worked diligently in order to prepare and value an opening TCA inventory as at January 1, 2008, and developed a workable process for properly recording 2008 and 2009 TCA activity in the financial statements. Going forward, the City must adopt accounting procedures which account for TCA additions within its accounting systems in a more "routine" manner so as to remove the significant amount of manual analysis that was required in order to comply with the standard in 2009 and prepare the financial statements. Without adopting accounting procedures which systematically record TCA activity, the processes required to comply with the accounting standard at year end will continue to be time consuming and increase the risk of error. Recommendation We recommend the City develop and implement procedures which are followed throughout the year to ensure TCA activity is recorded as it occurs. Management's response With the introduction of tangible capital assets there are a number of projects or changes to be undertaken to streamline the accounting for tangible capital assets. These changes range from development of accounting procedures; implementation of software for recording asset additions, disposals and calculating amortization; and changes to capital budgeting to assist in identifying and recording tangible capital assets. A Senior Financial Analyst was hired as of August 2009 with primary responsibility for overseeing the accounting for tangible capital assets. The initial priority of the position was completing the compilation and valuation of the opening inventory balances at January 1, 2008 and compiling the addition and disposal information for 2008 and 2009 to meet the financial statement reporting requirements for 2009 year end. Going forward, the responsibilities of this position are: to develop the processes and procedures surrounding the accounting for TCA additions, disposals and amortization; to assist in selection and implementation of appropriate asset management software so accounting for assets may be automated where possible; and to work with Finance staff in streamlining the capital budget format in order that data can be recorded more efficiently. i 113 now ttlu i ATTACHMENT # Z TO REPO #CS 32- 114 Consolidated financial statements of The Corporatio ®f the City of Picker' I g December 31,2009 i i O i I DK5 Document in 2210A City of Pickering Nofes, 9/3/10.• 10:46 AM FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY i 115 The Corporation of the City of Pickering December 31, 2009 Table of contents Auditors' Report ...................................................................................................................................................1 Consolidated statement of financial position .......................................................................................................2 Consolidated statement of operations ................................................3 Consolidated statement of change in net financial assets ...................................................................................4 Consolidated statement of cash flows .................................................................................................................5 i Notes to the consolidated financial statements 6-25 I i I O } i O Document in 2210A City of Pickering Abtes 913110,10:46 AM FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY i 116 Deloitte & Tou a LLP 5140 Yonge reet Suite 1700 Toronto M2N 61-7 Canad Tel: 16-601-6150 F 416-601-6151 .deloitte.ca I Auditors' Report To the Members of Council, Inhabitants and Ratepayers of the Corporation of the City of Pickering i We have audited the consolidated statement of financial posi 'o the Corpo tion of the City of Pickering as at December 31,2009 and the consolidated st a is opera ions, changes in net financial assets and of cash flows for the year then ended.

The terms of these indemnities are not explicitly d ned and the maximum amount of any potential reimbursement cannot be reasonably estimate The nature of ese indemnification agreements prevents the City from making a reasonable estimate of the maximu exposure due to the difficulties in assessing the amount of liability which stems from the unpredict ility of future events and the unlimited coverage offered to counterparties. Historically, the City has of made any significant payments under such or similar indemnification agreements and theref a no amount has been accrued in the balance sheet with respect to these agreements. i i D Document in 2210A 67ty of Pickering Notes 9/3/10,• 10:46 AM Page 21 I FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY 137 The Corporation of the City of Pickering Notes to the consolidated financial statements December 31, 2009 17.

Significant accounting policies The financial statements of the City of Pickering Public Library Board (the "Library bard") are the representations of management prepared in accordance with Canadian generall ccepted accoun ' g principles established by the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) of the Ca adian Institute of Chartered Accountants. Significant accounting policies adopted by the Library Board are as follow Basis of accounting (a) Accrual basis of accounting Revenues and expenses are reported on the accrual basis o accounting. The crual basis of accounting recognizes revenues as they are earned and m asurable; expens s are recognized, as they are incurred and measurable as a result of the recei of goods and se ices and the creation of a legal obligation to pay. (b) Non-financial assets (i) Tangible capital assets Tangible capital assets are recorded at co less acc ate depreciation. Cost includes all amounts that are directly attributable to quisition, deve o ent or betterment of the asset. The cost of the tangible capital asset i amortized on a st ight-fine basis over the estimated useful life as follows: Machinery & equipment 2 to 25 y ars Information technology hardwar 4 to 8 ars Library collection material years Furniture and fixtures 10 50 years One-half of the annual a rtization is ch rg in the year of acquisition and in the year of disposal. Other major assets i luding the Libra uilding are owned by the. City and are not reflected in these financial stat e (ii) Contribution/do do f c ital assets Tangible cap' I ass ceive s contributions or donations are recorded at their fair value at the date of ceipt, and fa' value is also recorded as revenue. (iii) Intangibl assets Intan ' le assets are no ecognized as assets in the financial statements. (c) Deferr re e Def re venu epr ents amounts which have been received for expenditures not yet incurred. T se a nts I b recognized as revenue in the fiscal year the related items are purchased. ll (d) ost employ t enefits The present va a of the cost of providing employees with future benefits programs is recognized as employee earn these entitlements through service. Any actuarial gains or losses are amortized on a straig -line basis over the average remaining service period (ARSP) of employees. The actuarya imated the ARSP to be 15 years. (e) Use of stimates The reparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting p ' ciples requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported ount of assets, liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Change in accounting policies Effective January 1, 2009, the Library Board has implemented Sections 1200 "Fin cial Statement Presentation" and 3150 "Tangible Capital Assets" of the Public Sector Accountin Handbook. Secti 1200 establishes general reporting principles and standards for the disclosure information in Li ary Board financial statements. Section 3150 requires the Library Board to recor and amortize the tangible capital assets in their financial statements. Tangible capital assets ere previously r orded as expenditures when acquired. Method used for determining the opening cost of each major category f t e capital ssets The financial information recorded includes the actual historical co of the tang) c ital assets. When historical cost records were not available, other methods were us d to estimate the osts and accumulated amortization of the assets. The Library Board appied a consistent m thod of estimating the replacement or reproduction cost of the tangible capital a ets to each cate ryfor which it did not have historical cost records. After determining replacement r reproduction co , deflation factors were used to deflate the replacement or reproduction cost to a es ' ated histori I cost for the year of acquisition. The change has been applied retroactively and prio/the ods bee estated. This change in accounting policy has changed amounts reported i prior pe ' follows: 2008 Accumulated surplus -Amounts to be re ve reviou y reported (120,100) Net book value of tangible capital asse 2,520,072 Accumulated surplus, as restated 2,399,972 i Annual surplus Net revenue, as previous/rorted (2,800) Assets capitalized but precorded as xpenditures 485,865 Amortization ex ense o l record (1,038,184) Annual surplus, as restat (555,119) 5 Document in 22109 Hates to the Financial Statements (Library - December 31, Z009) (31398,x• 8/27110,• 5:19 PM Page 7 FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY 156 i City of Pickering Public Library Board Notes to the financial statements December 31, 2009 3.
