It is one of a series of publications on the Huntington Botanical Gardens made possible by a generous contribution from Peter and Helen Bing. • Treasures through Six Generations: Chinese Painting and Calligraphy from the Weng Collection Also edited by June Li, this volume accompanied The Huntington’s spring 2009 exhibition of the Wan-go H. C. Weng Collection of Chinese painting and calligraphy. Weng Tonghe (1830–1904), who gathered the greater part of the collection, was a preeminent statesman and scholar of late Qing-dynasty China, and the masterworks he collected represent a millennium of great Chinese art. Weng’s great-great-grandson Wan-go H. C. Weng—the collection’s current owner—brought it to the United States for safekeeping in 1948. The catalog was made possible by Peter and Helen Bing, the Sammy Yukuan Lee Family, and Dr. Richard A. Simms. Distribution by University of California Press has broadened the reach of both the exhibition and the catalog, which is now in the collections of about 150 libraries worldwide. • The Botanical Gardens at the Huntington Among the Press’s best-selling titles and now in its third education edition, this book presents a comprehensive look at the botanical gardens and includes a new chapter on Liu Fang Teachers and students alike relish a field trip to The with the spontaneity and wonder of visitors—is manifested Yuan, the Huntington’s Chinese garden.

The Board of Trustees may elect Accounts payable and accrued expenses (703,484) 229,589 to designate such net assets for specific purposes or to function as endowment. This designation may be removed at the Net cash used by operating activities (3,519,449) (13,140,032) Board’s discretion.

INVENTORIES Inventories, reported at cost, consist of items held by the Huntington Bookstore & More and Huntington Library Press publications. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Huntington adopted the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” effective July 1, 2008, for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value except for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities measured at fair value on a non- recurring basis, as permitted by FSP FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. Under SFAS No. 157, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under SFAS 157 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes how to measure fair value based on a three-level hierarchy of inputs, of which the first two are considered contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses observable and the last unobservable. during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Level 1: Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that The Hunt- ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION ington has the ability to access at the measurement date; The Huntington accounts for asset retirement obligations (ARO) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Level 2: Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, (FASB) Statement No. 143. This accounting standard applies to the fair value of a liability for an ARO that is recorded when either directly or indirectly; there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be reasonably estimated. Level 3: Valuations based on inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (inputs are As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, $1,556,280 and $1,458,361, respectively, of conditional retirement asset obligations is included supported by little or no market activity). in the statements of financial position. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on The Huntington’s results of operations or financial position. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS See Note 3 “Fair Value” for additional disclosures.
