REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION - PART I
Management's Discussion and Analysis
As management of the West Baton Rouge Parish School Board (hereinafter, School Board), weoffer readers of the School Board's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis ofthe financial activities of the School Board for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Weencourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additionalinformation that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal. All amounts, unless otherwiseindicated, are expressed in thousands of dollars.
Financial Highlights
a The assets of the School Board exceeded its liabilities at the close of the fiscal yearby $15,392 (net assets). Of this amount, $9,992 (unrestricted net assets) may beused to meet the School Board's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
a The School Board's total net assets increased by $3,861.
a The State MFP funds increased by $407 from prior year.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the School Board's basicfinancial statements. These basic financial statements are composed of three components: 1)government-wide financial statements; 2) fund financial statements; and, 3) notes to the financialstatements. The financial statements also contain other supplemental information in addition tothe basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements aredesigned to provide readers with a broad overview of the School Board's finances, in a mannersimilar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the School Board's assets andliabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increasesor decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial positionof the School Board is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the government's net assetschanged during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets are reported as soonas the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of relatedcash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items thatwill only result in cash flows in future periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned by unusedsick leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements present functions of the School Boardthat are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmentalactivities). The School Board has no functions or activities which are business-like innature, meaning that they are primarily supported by user fees and charges for services,
such as a municipally owned utility system. The governmental activities of the SchoolBoard include regular and special education programs, support services, administration,maintenance, student transportation and school food services. The School Board containsno other units of government (component units) nor is it contained as a component unit ofany other level of local or state government.
Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used tomaintain control over the resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives.The School Board, like other state and local governments, used fund accounting to ensure anddemonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the SchoolBoard can be divided into two categories: governmental funds and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the samefunctions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide fmancials statements.However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financialstatements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as onbalances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may beuseful in evaluating a government's near term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-widefinancial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmentalfunds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-termimpact of the School Board's financial position. Both the governmental fund balance sheetand the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fundbalances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental fundsand governmental activities.
The School Board maintains individual governmental funds. Information is presentedseparately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statementof revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance for the General Fund, Debt ServiceFund, Capital Projects Fund and the EFID Sales Tax Fund, all of which are considered tobe major funds. The remaining funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentationunder the label of other governmental funds, which contains all the non-major funds.Individual fund data for each of these non-major funds is provided in the form ofcombining statements elsewhere in the financial statements.
The School Board adopts annual appropriated budgets for all funds except expendituresdriven by grant funds. Budgets for those types of grants funds are submitted by the grantsupervisor to the Louisiana Department of Education, which approves the grant budgetsand, through which flows requests for reimbursement. In virtually all cases, revenuesreceived will equal expenditures and transfers of indirect costs, meaning that these funds donot have fund balances to carry forward to future periods. The School Board does adoptformal budgets for the General Fund, Debt Service Fund, Capital Projects Fund, EFIDSales Tax Fund and those Special Revenue Funds which are funded by local taxes.
Fiduciary funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit ofoutside parties such as students. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-widefinancial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the SchoolBoard's programs. The sole fiduciary fund of the School Board is the School Activity Fund,which contains monies belonging to the schools, their students, and clubs or other activities.
Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that isessential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financialstatements.
Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes,this report also presents certain required supplementary information. Included therein are thecombining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds.Also, under the label of other supplementary information can be found data on individual schoolactivity funds, capital assets, and information required to be presented by state statute.
Financial Analysis of the School Board's Funds
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financialposition. In the case of the School Board, assets exceeded liabilities by $15,392 at the close ofthe most recent fiscal year.

NOTE#1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The School Board complies with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The GAAPincludes all relevant Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements. Inthe government-wide financial statements, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)pronouncements and Accounting Principles Board (APB) opinions issued on or before November30, 1989, have been applied unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASBpronouncements, in which case, GASB prevails.
This financial report has been prepared in conformity with GASB Statement No. 34, BasicFinancial Statements - and Management's Discussion and Analysis -for State and LocalGovernments, issued in June 1999. The following is a summary of the School Board'ssignificant policies:
A. Financial Reporting Entity
GASB Statement No. 14, The Reporting Entity, and GASB Statement No. 39, DeterminingWhether Certain Organizations Are Component Units, establish criteria for determining thegovernmental reporting entity. Under provisions of these Statements the School Board isconsidered a primary government, since it is a special purpose government that has aseparately elected governing body, is legally separate,

A. Financial Reporting Entity (continued)
and is fiscally independent means that the School Board may, without the approval or consentof another governmental entity, determine or modify its own budget, levy its own taxes or setrates or charges, and issue bonded debt. The School Board also has no component unitsdefined by GASB No. 14 and 39 as other legally separate organizations for which the electedSchool Board members are financially accountable. There are no other primary governmentswith which the School Board has a significant relationship.
B, Basis of Presentation
Government-wide Financial Statements.
The Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities display information about thereporting government as a whole. They include all funds of the School Board except forfiduciary funds. Governmental activities generally are financed through taxes,intergovernmental revenues, and other non-exchange revenues.
The School Board's basic financial statements consist of the government-wide statements onall of the non-fiduciary funds activities and fund financial statements (individual major fundand combined non-major funds). The statements are prepared in accordance with accountingprinciples generally accepted in the United States of America as applied to governmentalunits. Private sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior toDecember 1, 1989, generally are followed in both the government-wide financial statementsto the extent that those standards do not conflict or contradict guidance of the GASB, inwhich case, GASB prevails.
Program Revenues.
Program revenues included in the Statement of Activities derive directly from partiesoutside the School Board's taxpayers. As a whole, program revenues reduce the costof the function to be financed from the School Board's general revenues.
Allocation of Indirect Expense.
The School Board Reports all expenses by function in the Statement of Activities.Direct expenses are those are clearly identifiable with a function. Indirect expenses ofother functions are not allocated to those functions but are reported separately in theStatement of Activities. Depreciation expense which can be specifically identified byfunction is included in the direct expenses of each Function. Depreciation on buildingsis assigned to "General Administration" function due to the fact that school buildingsserve many purposes. Interest in general long-term debt is considered an indirectexpense and is reported separately.

Fund Financial Statements.
Fund Financial Statements of the reporting entity are organized into funds, each of which isconsidered to be separate accounting entities. Each fund is accounted for by providing aseparate set of self-balancing accounts that constitute its assets, liabilities, find equity,revenues, and expenditures. Funds are organized into two major categories: governmentaland fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental category. Afund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the School Board or meets thefollowing criteria:
a. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures of that individual governmental fundare at least 10 percent of the corresponding total for all governmental funds.
The funds of the School Board are described below:
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are used to account for all or most of the School Board's generalactivities, including the collection and disbursement of specific and legally restricted monies,the acquisition or construction of general fund assets and the servicing of long-term" debt.Governmental funds include:
1. The general fund is the primary operating fund of the School Board and alwaysclassified as a major fund. It is used to account for all activities except those legally or
administratively required to be accounted for in another fund.
2. The special revenue funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that arelegally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
3. The debt service fund accounts for the accumulation of financial resources for thepayment of interest and principle on the general long-term debt.
4. The capital projects fund is used to account for resources restricted for the acquisition,construction or improvement of capital facilities.

(Continued)
Fiduciary Funds (Not included in governmental-wide statements)
Fiduciary funds account for assets held on behalf of outside parties, including othergovernments, or on behalf of other funds within the School Board. Fiduciary funds include:
1. The agency fund accounts for assets held by the School Board as an agent for theindividual schools and school organizations. The agency fund is custodial in nature
(assets equal liabilities) and do not involve the measurement of results of operations.
C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accountability
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within thevarious financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" transactions are recordedregardless of the measurement focus applied.
Measurement Focus
On the government-wide Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities,governmental-like activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus.
In the fund financial statements, the "current financial resources" measurement focus is usedas appropriate:
a. All governmental funds utilize a "current financial resources" measurement focus.Only current financial assets and liabilities are generally included on their balancesheets. Their operating statements present sources and uses of available spendablefinancial resources during a giving period. These funds use fund balance as theirmeasure of available spendable financial resources at the end of the period.
b. Agency funds are not involved in the measurement of results of operations; therefore,measurement focus is not applicable to them.
Basis of Accounting
In the governmental-wide Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities,governmental-like activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under theaccrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are rewardedwhen the liability is incurred or economic asset used.
Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchange andexchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.
18
WEST BATON ROUGE PARISH SCHOOL BOARDPORT ALLEN, LOUISIANA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSJUNE 30. 2006
(Continued)
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds and agency funds are presented on themodified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting,revenues are recognized when "measurable and available." Measurable means knowing orbeing able to reasonably estimate the amount. Expenditures (including capital outlay) arerecording when the related fund liability is incurred, except for general delegation bondprincipal and interest which are reported when due.
D. Assets, Liabilities, and Equity
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the Statement of Net Assets, cash and cash equivalents are considered tobe demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits and short-term investments (usuallytime certificates of deposits). All of these cited instruments are considered cash equivalents,as long as their original maturities are of three months or less from the date of acquisition.
Under state law, the School Board may deposit funds in demand deposits, interest-bearingdemand deposits, or time deposits with a bank organized under Louisiana law and nationalbanks having principal offices in Louisiana.
Investments
Investments are limited by LSA-R.S. 33:2955 and the School Board's investment policy. Ifthe original maturities of investments exceed 90 days, they are classified as investments;however, if the original maturities are 90 days or less, they are classified as cash equivalents.
Interfund Receivables and Pavables
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds thatmay result in amounts owed between funds. Those related to goods and services typetransactions are classified as "due to and from other funds." Short-term interfund loans arereported as "interfund receivables and payables." Interfund receivables and payables betweenfunds within governmental activities are eliminated in the Statement of Net Assets.
Inventory
Inventories of the School Lunch Special Revenue Fund consist of food purchased by theSchool Board and commodities granted by the United States Department of Agriculturethrough the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry.
All purchased inventory items are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) on market,and commodities are assigned values based on information provided by the United StatesDepartment of Agriculture.
19
WEST BATON ROUGE PARISH SCHOOL BOARDPORT ALLEN. LOUISIANA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSJUNE 30, 2006
(Continued)
The commodities are recorded as revenue when received (issued); however, all inventoryitems are recorded as expenditures when consumed.
Prepaid Items
Prepaid items represent costs paid in advance which are applicable to future accountingperiods. An evaluation of such items indicates that any amounts which might be included asprepaid items are generally immaterial and therefore not recorded on neither the government-wide nor fund financial statements.
Receivables
In the government-wide statements, receivables consist of all revenues earned at year-end andnot yet received. Major receivables include sales and use taxes and grants.
In the fund financial statements, material receivables include revenue accruals such as salestax, grants and other intergovernmental revenues since they are usually both measurable andavailable.
Interest and investment earnings are recorded when earned.
Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include land, buildings and improvements, and furniture andequipment, are reported in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are notincluded within the depreciable assets (those subject to depreciation) of the School Boardunless they cost on an individual basis $ 5,000 or more and have an estimated useful life ofmore than one year. Items costing less than that are "expensed" at the time of purchase ratherthan depreciated. Depreciable assets do not have and assigned salvage value since anyamount would be generally immaterial.
Capital assets purchased or constructed are recorded at historical cost, or, estimated historicalcost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimatedfair market value at the date of donation.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset ormaterially extend asset lives are not capitalized.
Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over useful lives of 40 years forbuildings to 5 to 20 years for furniture and equipment.

The School Board does not possess any material amounts of infrastructure assets, such assidewalks and parking lots. Amounts prior to June 30, 2002, for such items were consideredto be part of the cost of the buildings or other immovable property such as stadiums. In thefuture, if such items are built or constructed, and are material in relation to the class of assets,they will be capitalized and depreciated.
Compensated Absences

Under the TeachersRetirement System of Louisiana (TRSL), the total unused sick leave (including any amountwhich may be compensated or mentioned above), is used in retirement benefit calculations asearned service for leave earned prior to July 1, 1998. For Sick leave earned after June 30,1998 under the TRSL and for sick leave earned under the Louisiana School EmployeesRetirement System (LSERS), all unpaid sick leave, which excludes the above statedcompensated days, is used in retirement benefit computations as earned service.

COMPLIANCE
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether West Baton Rouge Parish School Board,Port Allen, Louisiana's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests onits compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, noncompliancewith which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statementamounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objectiveof our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosedno instances of noncompliance that are to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
In planning and performing our audit, we considered West Baton Rouge Parish School Board, PortAllen, Louisiana's internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our auditingprocedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provideassurance on the internal control over financial reporting. Our consideration of the internal controlover financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control overfinancial reporting that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in whichthe design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to arelatively low level the risk that misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to thefinancial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period byemployees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no mattersinvolving the internal control over financial reporting and its operation to be material weaknesses.
