Title: NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION Accounting Policies: FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Net assets are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets and changes therein are classified and reported as follows: Net Assets Without Donor Restrictions Net assets available for use in general operations and not subject to donor restrictions. The governing board has designated, from net assets without donor restrictions, net assets for construction and development. Net Assets With Donor Restrictions Net assets subject to donor-imposed restrictions. Some donor restrictions are temporary in nature, such as those that will be met by the passage of time or other events specified by the donor. Other donor-imposed restrictions are perpetual in nature, where the donor stipulates that resources be maintained in perpetuity. Donor-imposed restrictions are released when a restriction expires, that is when the stipulated time has elapsed, when the stipulated purpose for which the resource was restricted has been fulfilled, or both. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Blackland uses the accrual method of accounting which recognizes revenue when earned and expenses when incurred. REVENUE AND RECEIVABLES Contributions are recorded as revenue and receivable when the donor makes an unconditional promise to give to Blackland. Conditional promises to give are not recognized until the conditions on which they depend are substantially met, and the promises become unconditional. Blackland considers contributions receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded. Government grants are recognized as revenue as services are performed as required by the contracts, which is when the related costs have been incurred. Blackland has contracts for cost reimbursable grants of $29,542 for which qualifying expenditures have not been incurred and accordingly have not been recognized at year end. Blackland considers grant receivables to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded. Blackland leases its housing units (45 as of year end) for use as single family residences under noncancellable operating leases. Generally these leases have twelve month terms, automatically renewing on a month-to-month basis thereafter. -7- BLACKLAND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Accounts receivables consist of amounts due from tenants for rent, fees and utilities provided. Uncollectible amounts receivable are provided for using the allowance method of accounting for bad debts, whereby a provision for uncollectible accounts is charged to expense. The allowance account is increased or decreased based on historical collections, analysis of aging of receivables, and management’s evaluation of individual balances. Receivables are considered past due based on the stated terms of the lease agreements, and on how recently payments have been received. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Management of Blackland has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of the Independent Auditor’s Report, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. FUNCTIONAL EXPENSE ALLOCATION Blackland incurs some expenses that are applicable to more than one program or supporting function. Therefore, expenses require allocation on a reasonable basis that is consistently applied. The expenses that are allocated include salaries and related, depreciation, office supplies and software, and utilities, which are allocated based on estimates of time and effort. Contract labor, professional fees, insurance, and other expenses are allocated based on management’s review and analysis of individual transactions and accounts. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Acquisitions of property and equipment valued at $1,000 or more with a useful life greater than one year are capitalized at cost, or estimated fair market value on the date of donation, if donated. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of the asset, ranging from 3 to 27.5 years. INCOME TAXES Blackland is an organization classified as an other than private foundation exempt from Federal income taxes under IRS Code Section 501(c)(3). Therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: Funds are made up of loans that are used to pay for the property Blackland Community Development Corporation (Blackland) was incorporated under the Texas Non-Profit Corporation Act in 1983 and was established for the purpose of preserving and improving the character of the Blackland neighborhood of the City of Austin, Texas and for engaging in community projects for the benefit and revitalization of the neighborhood.

In the event that Blackland does not comply with the terms of these loans, or should any costs be determined to be ineligible, Blackland will be liable to the City for such amounts. Management believes there will be no such disallowance. -8- BLACKLAND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3: CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS Blackland receives grants for specific purposes that are subject to grantor review. Such reviews could result in a request for reimbursement by the grantor if unallowable costs are identified. Blackland’s management believes that any liability for reimbursement which could arise as the result of these audits would not be material to the financial position of Blackland.

Title: NOTE 8: PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Accounting Policies: FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Net assets are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets and changes therein are classified and reported as follows: Net Assets Without Donor Restrictions Net assets available for use in general operations and not subject to donor restrictions. The governing board has designated, from net assets without donor restrictions, net assets for construction and development. Net Assets With Donor Restrictions Net assets subject to donor-imposed restrictions. Some donor restrictions are temporary in nature, such as those that will be met by the passage of time or other events specified by the donor. Other donor-imposed restrictions are perpetual in nature, where the donor stipulates that resources be maintained in perpetuity. Donor-imposed restrictions are released when a restriction expires, that is when the stipulated time has elapsed, when the stipulated purpose for which the resource was restricted has been fulfilled, or both. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Blackland uses the accrual method of accounting which recognizes revenue when earned and expenses when incurred. REVENUE AND RECEIVABLES Contributions are recorded as revenue and receivable when the donor makes an unconditional promise to give to Blackland. Conditional promises to give are not recognized until the conditions on which they depend are substantially met, and the promises become unconditional. Blackland considers contributions receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded. Government grants are recognized as revenue as services are performed as required by the contracts, which is when the related costs have been incurred. Blackland has contracts for cost reimbursable grants of $29,542 for which qualifying expenditures have not been incurred and accordingly have not been recognized at year end. Blackland considers grant receivables to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded.

Uncollectible amounts receivable are provided for using the allowance method of accounting for bad debts, whereby a provision for uncollectible accounts is charged to expense. The allowance account is increased or decreased based on historical collections, analysis of aging of receivables, and management’s evaluation of individual balances. Receivables are considered past due based on the stated terms of the lease agreements, and on how recently payments have been received. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Management of Blackland has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of the Independent Auditor’s Report, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. FUNCTIONAL EXPENSE ALLOCATION Blackland incurs some expenses that are applicable to more than one program or supporting function. Therefore, expenses require allocation on a reasonable basis that is consistently applied.
