The Stamford and Bridgeport railroad stations and parking operations have been excluded from this task. As the result of this engagement, financial information is presented in this report for comparing costs between these railroad properties. The financial information was gathered to present the following items for each station for the five fiscal years ending June 30, 1996 to 2000: The source and adequacy of revenue at each station, The type of expenses at each station, The accounting systems and procedures, and A written financial analysis overview. The information was also used to present: A comparisons of costs and revenues between the properties along the commuter lines, A financial comparative summary total of the five-years and A written summary overview. The financial information presented herein was provided by the various reporting entities who are responsible for maintaining and operating the properties under the governance of a lease agreement with the State of Connecticut Department of Transportation (the State). The financial information as reported by the entities is presented here in a format for comparative and analytic purposes. This study did not include an audit or application of auditing procedures to the financial information presented. A standard reporting format and standard classifications were used for comparative purposes. As a result, certain stations and parking finances show zero amounts for certain standard classifications while other stations show financial activity for the same classification. There are certain properties used for railroad parking operations that are not subject to a lease agreement with the State. This fact is noted in this presentation when applicable. The financial comparison is presented in summary form and separately for each station or group of stations under a common lease. The detailed classification of revenues and expenses, and presentation of statistical measures (square footage, spaces, etc.) are not generally required to be reported by or are they readily complied by the local governments. The general absence of detailed financial classifications of data has precluded the calculation herein of financial ratios based on detailed statistical measures. Connecticut Department of Transportation 1 An explanatory narrative is included for each property. The narrative is an overview that addresses the following financial topics and includes comments and other topics as deemed necessary: Accounting Entity And Basis Of Accounting Financial Reporting Revenues Expenses Expense Allocation
