Note 1
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Annual Expenditure Limitation Report (AELR) is presented on the basis of accounting prescribed by
the Uniform Expenditure Reporting System (UERS), as required by Arizona Revised Statutes §41-
1279.07. The AELR excludes expenditures, expenses, or deductions of certain revenues specified in the
Arizona Constitution, Article IX §20, from the total expenditures, expenses or deductions reported in the
fund financial statements.
In accordance with the UERS requirements, a note to the AELR is presented below for any exclusion
claimed in part II and each subtraction or addition in the Reconciliation that cannot be traced directly to
an amount reported in the fund financial statements. All references to financial statement amounts in the
following notes refer to the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances for the
Governmental Funds, Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position for the Proprietary
Funds, and the Statement of Cash Flows for the Proprietary Funds.
