Accountant's Compilation Report
To the Board of Director's of Eastern New Orleans Neighborhood Advisory Commission (ENONAC)
I have compiled the balance sheet of Eastern New Orleans Neighborhood Advisory Commission (ENONAC) as of December 31, 2011, and the related statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance and statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance-budget to actual for the year then ended. I have not audited or reviewed the accompanying financial statements and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or any other conclusion about whether the financial statements are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for developing, implementing, and maintaining intemal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation ofthe financial statements.
My responsibility is to conduct the compilation in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The objective of a compilation is to assist management in presenting fmancial information in the form of financial statements without undertaking to obtain any assurance that there are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements.
Management has elected to omit substantially all ofthe disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. If the omitted disclosures were included in the financial statements, they might influence the user's conclusions about the organization's fmancial position and results of operations. Furthermore, ENONAC did not adopt the provisions of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 34 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The effects ofthis departure from generally accepted accounting principles has not been determined. Accordingly, these fmancial statements are not designed for those who are not informed about such matters.
