Year End Questionnaire - Wyoming State Auditor's Office

To improve the ACFR preparation process for the State of Wyoming, the SAO has developed a questionnaire to learn more about some of the topics that can impact financial reporting. The questionnaire is designed to capture information around events, transactions and changes at each organization to ensure the necessary information has been collected in order to produce the ACFR in accordance with the appropriate accounting standards.
Please keep in mind as you read the questions that your answers are regarding YOUR agency and for the period of 7/1 through 6/30.
If you have any questions regarding any portion of this questionnaire, please let SAO Accounting Division know and either we or the external auditors will attempt to address your concerns.
Should you have no further questions, please complete the questionnaire. When you click submit, your answers are returned electronically to the SAO Accounting Division.
This questionnaire needs to be completed and returned to the SAO Accounting Division by September 30

To organizations included in the State reporting entity, related party transactions would be those that have taken place between a reporting organization and its elected or appointed officials, management, or members of their immediate families. Transactions within the State reporting entity (e.g., between State agencies) are not required to be called out as related party transactions and do not need to be included in responses to this question. It is important to consider transactions that may not have been recorded as an accounting transaction, such as services received without charge. In particular, (regardless of whether accounting transactions have been recorded or not) consider any transactions such as: a. Borrowing or lending on an interest-free basis or at a rate of interest significantly above or below market rates prevailing at the time of the transaction b. Selling real estate at a price that differs significantly from its appraised value. c. Exchanging property for similar property in a non-monetary transaction. d. Making loans with no scheduled terms for when or how the loans will be repaid.
