This report has been prepared by the Department of Finance and Administration (DFA) in conformance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for governments as promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The accuracy of agency level data that supports these financial statements is the responsibility of agency management. The completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with DFA. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all material respects and is reported in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position of the State. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the State’s financial activities have been included. The management of the State is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the State are protected from loss, theft, or misuse and that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow the preparation of the financial statements. The internal control structure has been designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition and the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and that the valuation of costs and benefits require estimates and judgments by management. The State of Arkansas Division of Legislative Audit performed the audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America were used by the auditors in conducting the engagement. The auditors’ report on the basic financial statements is included in the financial section of this report. The Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) introduces the basic financial statements and provides an analytical overview of the government’s financial activities. This letter of transmittal complements the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The State’s MD&A can be found in the financial section immediately following the report of the independent auditor.
