The North of Superior District Roman Catholic Separate School Board Auditor's Rep TO THE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS The North of District Roman Catholic School Board We have examined the Balance Sheet of The North of Superior District Roman Catholic Separate School Board as at December 31, 1984 and the Revenue Fund and Capital Fund Statements of Operations and the Statement of Revised Net Revenue Fund Requirement for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and ac-_ cordingly included such tests and other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Board as at December 31, 1984 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting principles described in note 1 to the financial statements applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year. a BALANCE SHEET As at December 31, 1984 ASSETS : 1984 1983 Current Assets Cash $ 185,776 37,645 Thunder Bay, Canada CLARKSON GORDON Investments at cost _ = March 6 1905 Chartered Accountants Accounts Receivable .

In the event that the employee sells or transfers the house, or terminates employment with the Board, the full amount of the mortgage becomes due and payable. The Board also holds a first option to re-purchase the property until August, 1985. This mortgage has not been reflected in the financial statements. 4. Liability for employee sick leave benefits Sick leave benefit plan -- Under the sick leave benefit plan unused sick leave can accumulate to a certain max- imum and, depending upon the number of days accumulated at the time of retirement, employees may become entitled to a cash payment, assuming that they are still employed by the Board at the time of their retirement. As in prior years, these financial statements include a provision of $20,700 ($11,900 in 1983) for accumulated sick leave benefits which have accrued to employees who have terminated employment prior to January 1, 1985. However as stated in note 1(c), no pro- vision has been made for the benefits accumulated to December 31, 1984 which might be payable upon retirement to those employees remaining on staff after December 31, 1984. This liability is estimated at approximately $145,000 at the year end.
