The College provides general education at the freshman and sophomore levels leading to the Associate in Arts and Associate in Science degrees designed to facilitate transfer to a senior college or university. James H. Faulkner State Community College also provides the following technical, vocational and occupational education programs that prepare students for employment in an occupational field and leads to certificates and/or Associate in Applied Science degrees: Commercial Art/Graphic Design; Animation, Interactive Technology, Video Graphics & Visual Effects; Computer Technology; Dental Assisting; Hospitality Management; Culinary Arts; Event Planning; Pastry and Baking; Industrial Maintenance Technology; Landscape and Turf Operations Management; Management and Supervision Technology; Practical Nursing; Nursing Mobility (LPN to RN); Associate Degree Nursing; Office Administration; Paralegal; Advanced Emergency Medical Technician; Paramedic; Veterinary Technology; Respiratory Therapy; Surgical Technology; Child Development; Emergency Medical Technology; Real Estate; Automotive Technology; Building Technology; and Welding Technology.

James H. Faulkner State Community College is a publicly supported institution in the Alabama Community College System. The College is under the authority of the State Board of Education through the Department of Postsecondary Education.

This report presents the results of an audit, the objectives of which were to determine whether the financial statements present fairly the financial position and results of financial operations and whether the College complied with applicable laws and regulations, including those applicable to its major federal financial assistance programs. The audit was conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, as well as, the requirements of the Department of Examiners of Public Accounts under the authority of the Code of Alabama

(10)

14-268 B

An unmodified opinion was issued on the financial statements, which means the College’s financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, its financial position and the results of its operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.

There were no findings in the prior audit.

Tests performed during the audit did not disclose any significant instances of noncompliance with applicable state laws and regulations.

In the normal course of the College’s internal control procedures, the College became aware of certain irregularities involving invoices, billings, and some catered events of the College’s Hospitality and Culinary Arts Program. The College performed an internal investigation into the matter and turned the results of the investigation over to the Baldwin County District Attorney’s office for further review. As a result of the review, Baldwin County District Attorney’s office determined there was probable cause that certain violations of state law had occurred and the matter was reviewed in April 2013 by the Baldwin County Grand Jury. Two indictments were issued related to the investigation. Two employees were indicted on three counts related to the State Ethics Law, one count of 2nd degree theft of property, and one count related to state tax laws. On April 17, 2013, one employee was placed on paid administrative leave and another (non-tenured) employee was terminated. Both have been charged with criminal theft, ethics, and tax evasion. The non-tenured employee has pled guilty to a misdemeanor charge of use of position for personal gain and all other charges in the indictment have been dropped as a result of the plea agreement. Charges are pending on the other employee and trial is scheduled for March 2014.

COMMENTS

James H. Faulkner State Community College October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013

James H. Faulkner State Community College had its origin on May 3, 1963 when Act Numbers 92, 93, and 94 of Acts of Alabama 1963 were approved. Act Number 92 on page 257 provided funds to pay the principal and interest on bonds, not exceeding $15,000,000, issued and sold by the public corporation known as the Alabama Trade School and Junior College Authority. Act Number 93 on page 259 authorized the Governor, the Director of Finance, and the State Superintendent of Education to become a corporation, to be known as the Alabama Trade School and Junior College Authority, for the object of providing for the construction and equipment of educational institutions within the state known as junior colleges and trade schools. Act Number 94 on page 268 vested in the Alabama State Board of Education the authority and responsibility for the operation, management, control, supervision, maintenance, regulation, upkeep, improvement, equipment, and enlargement of, and additions to, educational institutions known as trade schools and junior colleges.

James H. Faulkner State Community College (the “College”) has undergone several transitions and name changes in its lifetime. For the first few months of operation, it was called Bay Minette State Junior College, but in early 1966, the State Board of Education named the College William Lowndes Yancey State Junior College in honor of a pre-Civil-War statesman and educator. In 1970, the name changed to James H. Faulkner State Junior College to honor Mr. James H. Faulkner, a prominent citizen of Baldwin County. The College name was changed again by the State Board of Education in August 1992 to James H. Faulkner State Community College to more accurately reflect its mission and purpose.

14-268 D

James H. Faulkner State Community College began offering courses at Fairhope in 1970 and in 1975, the College added a permanent staff, student services and expanded offering of programs and services to the community. Facilities used at that time were through agreements with the Eastern Shore Art Association and Fairhope High School as well as the Fairhope Public Library. In May 1987, the College entered into a 99 year lease agreement with the City of Fairhope to acquire an approximately 10 acre property located in downtown Fairhope that had been the campus of the Marietta Johnson School of Organic Education. The Fairhope site was entered in the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of Interior on July 1, 1988. Since that time, the College has conducted classes at this campus.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To: Dr. Mark A. Heinrich, Chancellor – Alabama Community College System Dr. Gary Branch, President – James H. Faulkner State Community College

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying basic financial statements of James H. Faulkner State Community College, as of and for the year ended September 30, 2013, as listed in the table of contents as Exhibits 1 through 3.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation off financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in

Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the basic financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

(15)

14-268 G

Opinion

In our opinion, the basic financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of James H. Faulkner State Community College, as of September 30, 2013, and its changes in financial position and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquires, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Supplementary Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements of James H. Faulkner State Community College, taken as a whole. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (Exhibit 4) is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U. S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.

(16)

Other Reporting Required bv Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 5, 2014, on our consideration of James H. Faulkner State Community College's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering James H. Faulkner State Community College's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Faulkner State Community College

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Faulkner State Community College is a public, open door, comprehensive community college dedicated to meeting the changing needs of citizens in the Alabama service area. By offering a broad spectrum of programs, the College provides students with opportunities for educational, personal and professional advancement. A wide range of academic courses prepares students to transfer to four-year institutions. Technical programs equip students to master certain skills as well as to utilize them through job entry.

Faulkner State Community College is proud to present its financial statements for fiscal year 2013. The emphasis of discussions about these statements will be on current year data. There are three financial statements presented: the Statement of Net Position; the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position; and the Statement of Cash Flows.

This discussion and analysis of the College’s financial statements provides an overview of its financial activities for the year and comparative amounts for the prior year.

Statement of Net Position

The Statement of Net Position presents the assets, liabilities, and net position of the College as of the end of the fiscal year. The Statement of Net Position is a ‘point in time’ financial statement. The purpose of the Statement of Net Position is to present to the readers of the financial statements a fiscal snapshot of Faulkner State Community College. The Statement of Net Position presents end-of-year data concerning Assets (current and non-current), Liabilities (current and non-current), and Net Position (Assets minus Liabilities).

(19)

K

Net Position is divided into two major categories. The first category, net investment in capital assets, provides the institution’s equity in property, plant and equipment owned by the institution. The corpus of nonexpendable restricted resources is only available for investment purposes. The second category is unrestricted net position. Unrestricted net position is available to the institution for any appropriate purpose of the institution.

Statement of Net Assets (thousands of dollars)

2013 2012 Assets:

Assets:

Current assets $ 26,619 $ 23,840 Capital assets, net 34,946 35,494 Other Noncurrent Assets 1,690 2,168

Total Assets 63,255 61,502 Liabilities Current liabilities 8,060 7,338 Noncurrent liabilities 16,790 18,005 Total Liabilities 24,850 25,343 Net Position

Net Investment in Capital Assets 17,734 17,016 Restricted - expendable 2,137 1,140 Restricted - nonexpendable

Unrestricted 18,534 18,003

Total Net Position $ 38,405 $ 36,159

The $63.255 million in assets includes cash and cash equivalents of $18.549 million and investments of $4.277 million. A review of the Statement of Net Position also reveals accounts receivable of just over $2.453 million. Most of this represents amounts where a third party is paying for a student.

(20)

L

Liabilities of $24.850 million include long-term debt of $17.420 million and compensated absences of $.632 million as of the end of the 2013 fiscal year. Also included in the liabilities is deferred revenue of $4.70 million. The assets less liabilities result in net position of $38.405 million.

Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position

Changes in total Net Position as presented on the Statement of Net Position are based on the activity presented in the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position. The purpose of the statement is to present the revenues received by the institution, both operating and nonoperating, and the expenses paid by the institution, operating and nonoperating, and any other revenues, expenses, gains and losses received or spent by the institution.

Operating revenues are received for providing goods and services to the various customers and constituencies of the institution. Operating expenses are those expenses paid to acquire or produce the goods and services provided in return for the operating revenues, and to carry out the mission of the institution. Nonoperating revenues are revenues received for which goods and services are not provided. For example, state appropriations are nonoperating because they are provided by the Legislature to the institution without the Legislature directly receiving commensurate goods and services for those revenues.

Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position (thousands of dollars)

2013 2012

Operating revenues $ 13,681 $ 12,961

Operating expenses 30,877 29,810

The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position reflect a positive year with an increase in the net position at the end of the year. Some highlights of the information presented on the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position are the following:

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The financial statements of James H. Faulkner State Community College are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant accounting policies of the College are described below.

A. Reporting Entity

For financial reporting purposes, James H. Faulkner State Community College is part of the primary government of the State of Alabama. The State of Alabama, through the State Board of Education, governs the Department of Postsecondary Education. The Department of Postsecondary Education, through its Chancellor, has the authority and responsibility for the operation, management, supervision and regulation of James H. Faulkner State Community College.

B. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation

The financial statements of James H. Faulkner State Community College have been prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.

The College follows all applicable GASB pronouncements as well as the following pronouncements issued on or before November 30, 1989 unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements: Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statements and Interpretations, Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinions, and Accounting Research Bulletins (ARBs).

It is the policy of the College to first apply restricted resources when an expense is incurred and then apply unrestricted resources when both restricted and unrestricted net resources are available.

C. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position

1. Deposits and Investments

The College has defined cash to include currency on hand and demand deposits with financial institutions.

Statutes authorize the College to invest in the same type of instruments as allowed by Alabama law for domestic life insurance companies. This includes a wide range of investments, such as direct obligations of the United States of America, obligations issued or guaranteed by certain federal agencies, and bonds of any state, county, city, town, village, municipality, district or other political subdivision of any state or any instrumentality or board thereof or of the United States of America that meet specified criteria.

Investments are reported at fair value.

2. Receivables

Accounts receivable relate to amounts due from federal and state grants, state appropriations, third party tuition, and auxiliary enterprise sales, such as food services, bookstore, and residence halls.

3. Inventories

The inventories are comprised of consumable supplies and items held for resale. Inventories are valued at cost. All inventories are valued using the first in/first out (FIFO) method.

4. Capital Assets

(35)

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the Year Ended September 30, 2013

10

Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. The amount of interest to be capitalized is calculated by offsetting interest expense incurred from the date of the borrowing until completion of the project with interest earned on invested proceeds over the same period.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and major improvements which significantly increase values, change capacities or extend useful lives are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of fixed assets being depreciated using the straight-line method, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operation.

The method of depreciation and useful lives of the capital assets are as follows:

Assets Depreciation Method Useful Lives

Buildings and Improvements Straight-Line 50 years Improvements Other Than Buildings Composite 25 years

Equipment Composite 5 – 10 years

Library Materials Composite 20 years

Capitalized Software Straight-Line 10 years Internally Generated Computer Software Straight-Line 10 years Easement and Land Use Rights Straight-Line 20 years Patents, Trademarks, and Copyrights Straight-Line 20 years

5. Long-Term Obligations

Long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the Statement of Net Position. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds.

6. Compensated Absences

No liability is recorded for sick leave. Substantially all employees of the College earn 12 days of sick leave each year with unlimited accumulation. Payment is not made to employees for unpaid sick leave at termination or retirement.

7. Deferred Tuition and Fee Revenue

Tuition and fee revenues received but related to the period after September 30, 2013, have been deferred.

8. Net Position

Net Position is required to be classified for accounting and reporting purposes into the following categories:

♦ Net Investment in Capital Assets – Capital assets, including restricted capital assets, reduced by accumulated depreciation and by outstanding principal balances of debt attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. Deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets or related debt are also included in this component of net position. Any significant unspent related debt proceeds or inflows of resources at year-end related to capital assets are not included in this calculation.

♦ Restricted:

 Nonexpendable – Net Position subject to externally imposed stipulations that they be maintained permanently by the College. Such assets include the College’s permanent endowment funds.

 Expendable – Net Position whose use by the College is subject to externally imposed stipulations that can be fulfilled by actions of the College pursuant to those stipulations or that expire by the passage of time. These include funds held in federal loan programs. ♦ Unrestricted – Net Position is the net amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources,

liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position. Unrestricted resources may be designated for specific purposes by action of management or the State Board of Education.

9. Federal Financial Assistance Programs

The College participates in various federal programs. Federal programs are audited in accordance with the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996, the U. S. Office of Management and Budget Revised Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments and Non-Profit

10. Scholarship Allowances and Student Aid

Student tuition and fees are reported net of scholarship allowances and discounts. The amount for scholarship allowances and discounts is the difference between the stated charge for goods and services provided by the College and the amount that is paid by the student and/or third parties making payments on behalf of the student. The College uses the case-by-case method to determine the amount of scholarship allowances and discounts.

Note 2 – Deposits and Investments

A. Deposits

The College’s deposits at year-end were held by financial institutions in the State of Alabama’s Security for Alabama Funds Enhancement (SAFE) Program. The SAFE Program was established by the Alabama Legislature and is governed by the provisions contained in the Code

of Alabama 1975, Sections 41-14A-1 through 41-14A-14. Under the SAFE Program all public

funds are protected through a collateral pool administered by the Alabama State Treasurer’s Office. Under this program, financial institutions holding deposits of public funds must pledge securities as collateral against those deposits. In the event of failure of a financial institution, securities pledged by that financial institution would be liquidated by the State Treasurer to replace the public deposits not covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). If the securities pledged fail to produce adequate funds, every institution participating in the pool would share the liability for the remaining balance.

The Statement of Net Position classification “cash” includes all readily available cash such as petty cash and demand deposits.

Note 5 – Defined Benefit Pension Plan

A. Plan Description

The College contributes to the Teachers’ Retirement System of Alabama, a cost-sharing multiple-employer public employee retirement system for the various state-supported educational agencies and institutions. This plan is administered by the Retirement Systems of Alabama.

Full-time employees of the College are members of the Teachers’ Retirement System. Membership is mandatory for covered or eligible employees of Faulkner State Community College. Benefits vest after 10 years of creditable service. Tier 1 employees (those hired prior to January 2013) may retire at any age after 25 years of service or at age 60 with 10 years of service. Tier 2 employees (those hired beginning January 2013 and after) may retire at age 62 with 10 or more years of service.

Retirement benefits are calculated by two methods with the retiree receiving payment under the method which yields the highest monthly benefit. The methods are (1) Minimum Guaranteed, or (2) Formula, of which the Formula method usually produces the highest monthly benefit. Under this method Tier 1 retirees are allowed 2.0125% of their average final salary for each year of service. Tier 1 employees’ average final salary is determined by the best three out of their final ten years of service. Tier 2 retirees are allowed 1.65% of their average final salary for each year of service. Tier 2 employees’ average final salary is determined by the best three out of the last five years of service. Retirees may also elect to receive a reduced retirement allowance (Special Privileges at Retirement) in order to provide an allowance to a designated beneficiary after the member’s death. Disability retirement benefits are calculated in the same manner. Pre-retirement death benefits in the amount of the annual salary for the fiscal year preceding death are provided to plan members.

The Teachers’ Retirement System was established as of October 1, 1941, under the provisions of Act Number 419, Acts of Alabama 1939, for the purpose of providing retirement allowances and other specified benefits for qualified persons employed by state-supported educational institutions. The responsibility for general administration and operation of the Teachers’ Retirement System is vested in the Board of Control (currently 14 members). Benefit provisions are established by the Code of Alabama 1975, Sections 16-25-1 through 16-25-113, as amended, and Sections 36-27B-1 through 36-27B-6, as amended.

B. Funding Policy

Tier 1 employees, with the exception of full-time law enforcement officers, are required by statute to contribute 7-1/2 percent of their salary to the Teachers’ Retirement System. Tier 1 full-time law enforcement officers (as defined by Act Number 2000-669, Acts of Alabama, page 1335) are required by statute to contribute 8-1/2 percent of their salary to the Teachers’ Retirement System. Tier 2 employees, with the exception of full-time law enforcement officers, are required by statute to contribute 6 percent of their salary to the Teachers’ Retirement System. Tier 2 full-time law enforcement officers are required by statute to contribute 7 percent of their salary to the Teachers’ Retirement System. Faulkner State Community College is required to contribute the remaining amounts necessary to fund the actuarially determined contributions to ensure sufficient assets will be available to pay benefits when due. Each year the Teachers’ Retirement System recommends to the Legislature the contribution rate for the following fiscal year, with the Legislature setting this rate in the annual appropriation bill. The percentages of the contributions and the amount of contributions made by Faulkner State Community College and its employees equal the required contributions for each year as follows:

2013 2013

Fiscal Year Ended September 30, Tier 1 Tier 2 2012 2011

Total Percentage of Covered Payroll 17.58% 15.44% 17.25% 17.51%

Note 6 – Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) A. Plan Description

The College contributes to the Alabama Retired Education Employees’ Health Care Trust (the “Trust”), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit postemployment healthcare plan. The Trust provides health care benefits to state and local school system retirees and was established in 2007 under the provisions of Act Number 2007-16, Acts of Alabama, as an irrevocable trust fund. Responsibility for general administration and operations of the Trust is vested with the Public Education Employees’ Health Insurance Board (PEEHIB) members. The

Code of Alabama 1975, Section 16-25A-4, provides the PEEHIB with the authority to amend the

benefit provisions in order to provide reasonable assurance of stability in future years. The Trust issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained at the Public Educations Employees’ Health Insurance Plan website, http://www.rsa-al.gov/PEEHIP/peehip.html under the Trust Fund Financials tab. The Plan’s financial report for fiscal year 2013 will be available at the end of January 2014. The provisions of GASB Statement Number 45, Accounting and Financial

Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions were implemented

prospectively.

B. Funding Policy

The Public Education Employees’ Health Insurance Fund (PEEHIF) was established in 1983 under the provisions of Act Number 255, Acts of Alabama, to provide a uniform plan of health insurance for current and retired employees of state educational institutions. The plan is administered by the PEEHIB. Any Trust fund assets used in paying administrative costs and retiree benefits are transferred to and paid from the PEEHIF. The PEEHIB periodically reviews the funds available in the PEEHIF and if excess funds are determined to be available, the PEEHIB authorizes a transfer of funds from the PEEHIF to the Trust. Retirees are required to contribute monthly as follows:

For employees that retire other than for disability on or after October 1, 2005 and before January 1, 2012, for each year under 25 years of service, the retiree pays two percent of the employer premium and for each year over 25 years of service, the retiree premium is reduced by two percent of the employer premium. Employees who retire on or after January 1, 2012, with less than 25 years of service, are required to pay 4% for each year under 25 years of service. In addition, non-Medicare eligible employees who retire on or after January 1, 2012 are required to pay 1% more for each year less than 65 (age premium) and to pay the net difference between the active employee subsidy and the non-Medicare eligible subsidy (subsidy premium). When the retiree becomes Medicare eligible, the age and subsidy premium no longer applies, but the years of service premium (if applicable to the retiree) will continue to be applied throughout retirement. These changes are being phased in over a 5 year period. The tobacco premium is $28.00 per month for retired members that use tobacco products.

The College is required to contribute at a rate specified by the State for each active employee. The College’s share of premiums for retired employees health insurance is included as part of the premium for active employees. The following shows the required contributions in dollars and the percentage of that amount contributed for retirees:

Fiscal Year Ended September 30, Active Health Insurance Premiums Paid By College Amount of Premium Attributable to Retirees Percentage of Active Employee Premiums Attributable to Retirees Total Amount Paid Attributable to Retirees Percentage of Required Amount Contributed 2013 $714.00 $216.90 30.38% $439,270.92 100% 2012 $714.00 $228.85 32.05% $481,282.35 100% 2011 $752.00 $198.94 26.45% $393,553.23 100%

Each year the PEEHIB certifies to the Governor and to the Legislature the contribution rates based on the amount needed to fund coverage for benefits for the following fiscal year and the Legislature sets the premium rate in the annual appropriation bill. This results in a pay-as-you-go funding method.
