Adjusting Journal Entries and Required Disclosures to the Financial Statements: Year ended June 30, 2025. Condition and Criteria: During the current year, adjusting journal entries, along with footnote disclosures were proposed by the auditors and accepted by the District to properly reflect the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting pinciples. Some of the adjustments and footnotes were related to recording receivables, accruals and accounts payables and converting to the full accrual method for GASB 34 purposes. In addition, a draft of the financial statements was prepared by the auditors and reviewed and accepted by the District. Cause and Effect: AU-C Section 265 entitled Communicating Internal Control Related Matters Identified in and Audit, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accounts (ACIPA) considers the need for significant adjusting jouranl entries and assistance when preparing the financial statements to be indicative of an internal control deficiency. Without this assistance, the potential risk exists of the District's financial statements not conforming to GAAP. Auditor's Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and, in the future, under the pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting jouranl entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements. School District's Response: The District has received, reviewed and approved all journal entries, footnote disclosures and draft financial statements proposed for the current year audit and will continue to review similar information in future years. Further, the District believes it has a thorough understanding of these financial statements and the ability to make informed judgements based on these financial statements.
