INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO: THE OFFICIALS OF THE CITY OF CARMEL, HAMILTON COUNTY, INDIANA
Report on the Financial Statement
We have audited the accompanying financial statement of the City of Carmel(City),which comprises
the financial position and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013, and the related notes
to the financial statement.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statement
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this financial statement in ac-
cordance with the financial reporting provisions of the Indiana State Board of Accounts as allowed by state
statute (IC 5-11-1-6). Management is responsible for and has determined that the regulatory basis of ac-
counting, as established by the Indiana State Board of Accounts, is an acceptable basis of presentation.
Management is also responsible for the design, implementation,and maintenance of internal control relevant
to the preparation and fair presentation of a financial statement that is free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We con-
ducted 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 ob-
tain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statement. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assess-
ment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement,whether due to fraud or error. In making
those risk assessments,the auditor considers internal control relevant to the City's preparation and fair pres-
entation of the financial statement in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circum-
stances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.
Accordingly,we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of account-
ing policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
(Continued)
Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
As discussed in Note 1 of the financial statement, the City prepares its financial statement on the
prescribed basis of accounting that demonstrates compliance with the reporting requirements established by
the Indiana State Board of Accounts as allowed by state statute(IC 5-11-1-6),which is a basis of accounting
other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The effects on the financial statement of the variances between the regulatory basis of accounting
described in Note 1 and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although
not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material.
Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter discussed in the Basis for Adverse Opinion
on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles paragraph,the financial statement referred to above does
not present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the financial position and results of operations of the City for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Opinion on Regulatory Basis of Accounting
In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position and results of operations of the City for the year ended December 31,2013, in accordance
with the financial reporting provisions of the Indiana State Board of Accounts described in Note 1.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards,we have also issued a report dated December 8,
2014,on our consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance
with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, 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 the City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
Accompanying Information
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the City's financial statement. The
accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis
as required by the 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 financial statement. Such infor-
mation is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying ac-
counting and other records used to prepare the financial statement. The information has been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statement and certain additional procedures, in-
cluding comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records
used to prepare the financial statement or to the financial statement itself,and other additional procedures in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the
Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial
statement taken as a whole.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENT PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
TO: THE OFFICIALS OF THE CITY OF CARMEL, HAMILTON COUNTY, INDIANA
We have audited, 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, the financial statement of the City of Carmel (City), which
comprises the financial position and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013, and the
related notes to the financial statement,and have issued our report thereon dated December 8,2014,where-
in we noted the City followed accounting practices the Indiana State Board of Accounts prescribes rather than
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statement,we considered the City's internal con-
trol over financial reporting(internal control)to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the cir-
cumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statement, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly,we do not express an
opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.
Our consideration of the internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding para-
graph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses
or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were
not identified. However, as described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs,we
identified certain deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weak-
nesses.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow man-
agement or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions,to prevent,or detect and
correct,misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency,or combination of deficiencies,
in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's finan-
cial statement will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. We consider the deficien-
cies described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs as item 2013-001 to be
material weaknesses.

AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENT PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
(Continued)
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statement is free of
material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit and,accordingly,we do not express such an opinion. The results
of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under
Government Auditing Standards and which are described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and
Questioned Costs as item 2013-001.
City of Carmel's Response to Findings
The City's response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying Corrective
Action Plan. The City's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
financial statement and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
Purpose of This Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compli-
ance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal
control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government
Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control and compliance. Accordingly,this communication
is not suitable for any other purpose.

CITY OF CARMEL
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Reporting Entity
The City was established under the laws of the State of Indiana. The City operates under a
Council-Mayor form of government and provides some or all of the following services: public
safety(police and fire), highways and streets, health and social services, culture and recrea-
tion,public improvements,planning and zoning,general administrative services,water,waste-
water, electric, gas, storm water, trash, aviation, and urban redevelopment and housing.
The accompanying financial statement presents the financial information for the City.
B. Basis of Accounting
The financial statement is reported on a regulatory basis of accounting prescribed by the
Indiana State Board of Accounts in accordance with state statute(IC 5-11-1-6),which is a com-
prehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The basis of accounting involves the reporting of only cash and in-
vestments and the changes therein resulting from cash inflows (receipts) and cash outflows
(disbursements) reported in the period in which they occurred.
The regulatory basis of accounting differs from accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America in that receipts are recognized when received in cash, rather than
when earned, and disbursements are recognized when paid, rather than when a liability is in-
curred.
C. Cash and Investments
Investments are stated at cost. Any changes in fair value of the investments are reported as
receipts in the year of the sale of the investment.
D. Receipts
Receipts are presented in the aggregate on the face of the financial statement. The aggregate
receipts may include the following sources:
Taxes which can include one or more of the following: property taxes, certified shares
(local option tax), property tax replacement credit(local option tax), county option income
tax,wheel tax, innkeepers tax,food and beverage tax, county economic development in-
come tax, boat and trailer excise tax, county adjusted gross income tax, and other taxes
that are set by the City.
Licenses and permits which include amounts received from businesses, occupations, or
nonbusinesses that must be licensed before doing business within the government's
jurisdiction or permits levied according to the benefits presumably conferred by the permit.
Examples of licenses and permits include: peddler licenses,dog tax licenses,auctioneer
license, building and planning permits,demolition permits,electrical permits,sign permits,
and gun permits.

(fines), and for the neglect of official duty and monies derived from confiscating deposits
held as performance guarantees (forfeitures).
Utility fees which are comprised mostly of charges for current services.
Other receipts which include amounts received from various sources which can include,
but are not limited to the following: net proceeds from borrowings; interfund loan activity;
transfers authorized by statute, ordinance, resolution, or court order; internal service
receipts; and fiduciary receipts.
E. Disbursements
Disbursements are presented in the aggregate on the face of the financial statement. The ag-
gregate disbursements may include the following uses:
Personal services include outflows for salaries,wages,and related employee benefits pro-
vided for all persons employed. In those units where sick leave, vacation leave,overtime
compensation,and other such benefits are appropriated separately, such payments would
also be included.
Supplies which include articles and commodities that are entirely consumed and materially
altered when used and/or show rapid depreciation after use for a short period of time.
Examples of supplies include office supplies, operating supplies, and repair and mainte-
nance supplies.
Other services and charges which include, but are not limited to: professional services,
communication and transportation, printing and advertising, insurance, utility services,

CITY OF CARMEL
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
(Continued)
Capital outlay which include all outflows for land, infrastructure, buildings, improvements,
and machinery and equipment having an appreciable and calculable period of usefulness.
Utility operating expenses which include all outflows for operating the utilities.
Other disbursements which include,but are not limited to the following: interfund loan pay-
ments, loans made to other funds, internal service disbursements, and transfers out that
are authorized by statute, ordinance, resolution, or court order.
F. Interfund Transfers
The City may, from time to time, transfer money from one fund to another. These transfers, if
any, are included as a part of the receipts and disbursements of the affected funds and as a
part of total receipts and disbursements. The transfers are used for cash flow purposes as pro-
vided by various statutory provisions.
G. Fund Accounting
Separate funds are established, maintained, and reported by the City. Each fund is used to
account for money received from and used for specific sources and uses as determined by
various regulations. Restrictions on some funds are set by statute while other funds are inter-
nally restricted by the City. The money accounted for in a specific fund may only be available
for use for certain, legally restricted purposes. Additionally, some funds are used to account
for assets held by the City in a trustee capacity as an agent of individuals, private organiza-
tions,other funds,or other governmental units and therefore the funds cannot be used for any
expenditures of the unit itself.
Note 2. Budgets
The operating budget is initially prepared and approved at the focal level. The fiscal officer of the
City submits a proposed operating budget to the governing board for the following calendar year.
The budget is advertised as required by law. Prior to adopting the budget, the governing board
conducts public hearings and obtains taxpayer comments. Prior to November 1, the governing
board approves the budget for the next year The budget for funds for which property taxes are
levied or highway use taxes are received is subject to final approval by the Indiana Department of
Local Government Finance.
Note 3. Property Taxes
Property taxes levied are collected by the County Treasurer and are scheduled to be distributed to
the City in June and December; however, situations can arise which would delay the distributions.
State statute (IC 6-1.1-17-16) requires the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance to
establish property tax rates and levies by February 15. These rates were based upon the pre-
ceding year's March 1 (lien date) assessed valuations adjusted for various tax credits. Taxable
property is assessed at 100 percent of the true tax value(determined in accordance with rules and
regulations adopted by the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance). Taxes may be paid
in two equal installments which normally become delinquent if not paid by May 10 and November
10, respectively.

Note 4. Deposits and Investments
Deposits, made in accordance with state statute(IC 5-13),with financial institutions in the State of
Indiana at year end should be entirely insured by the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation or
by the Indiana Public Deposit Insurance Fund. This includes any deposit accounts issued or
offered by a qualifying financial institution.
State statutes authorize the City to invest in securities including, but not limited to,federal govern-
ment securities, repurchase agreements, and certain money market mutual funds. Certain other
statutory restrictions apply to all investments made by local governmental units.
Note 5. Risk Management
The City may be exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruc-
tion of assets;errors and omissions;job related illnesses or injuries to employees;medical benefits
to employees, retirees, and dependents; and natural disasters.
These risks can be mitigated through the purchase of insurance,establishment of a self-insurance
. fund, and/or participation in a risk pool. The purchase of insurance transfers the risk to an inde-
pendent third party. The establishment of a self-insurance fund allows the City to set aside money
for claim settlements. The self-insurance fund would be included in the financial statement. The
purpose of participation in a risk pool is to provide a medium for the funding and administration of
the risks.
Note 6. Pension Plans
A. Public Employees'Retirement Fund
Plan Description
The Indiana Public Employees' Retirement Fund (PERF) is a defined benefit pension plan.
PERF is an agent multiple-employer public employee retirement system,which provides retire-
ment benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. All full-time employees are eligible to par-
ticipate in this defined benefit plan. State statutes(IC 5-10.2 and 5-10.3)govern,through the
Indiana Public Retirement System(INPRS)Board, most requirements of the system,and give
the City authority to contribute to the plan. The PERF retirement benefit consists of the pen-
sion provided by employer contributions plus an annuity provided by the member's annuity
savings account. The annuity savings account consists of members'contributions,set by state
statute at 3 percent of compensation, plus the interest credited to the member's account. The
employer may elect to make the contributions on behalf of the member.
INPRS administers the plan and issues a publicly available financial report that includes finan-
cial statements and required supplementary information for the plan as a whole and for its par-
ticipants. That report may be obtained by contacting:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL
PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
TO: THE OFFICIALS OF THE CITY OF CARMEL, HAMILTON COUNTY, INDIANA
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
We have audited the City of Carmel's (City) compliance with the types of compliance requirements
described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget(OMB)CircularA-133 Compliance Supplement that
could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended December
31,2013. The City's major federal programs are identified in the Summary of Auditor's Results section of the
accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs.
Management's Responsibility
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations,contracts,and
grants applicable to its federal programs.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the City's major federal pro-
grams based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our
audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America;the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by
the Comptroller General of the United States;and OMB Circular A-133,Audits of States, Local Governments,
and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance require-
ments referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An
audit includes examining,on a test basis,evidence about the City's compliance with those requirements and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major
federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City's compliance.
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
In our opinion,the City complied, in all material respects,with the types of compliance requirements
referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the
year ended December 31, 2013.
-32-
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL
PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
(Continued)
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over
compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our
audit of compliance,we considered the City's internal control over compliance with the types of requirements
that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program to determine the auditing proce-
dures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance for
each major federal program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with
OMB Circular A-133, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control
over compliance. Accordingly,we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control
over compliance.
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over
compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions,to prevent,or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal
program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or com-
bination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that
material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented,or
detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a
deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, with a type of compliance
requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over com-
pliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance
that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal
control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may
exist that have not been identified.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our
testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of OMB
Circular A-133. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

FINDING 2013-001 -INTERNAL CONTROLS OVERREPORTING
OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS
The City did not have a proper system of internal control in place to prevent, or detect and correct,
errors on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards(SEFA). The City should have proper controls in
place over the preparation of the SEFA to ensure accurate reporting of federal awards. Without a proper
system of internal control in place that operates effectively, material misstatements of the SEFA could remain
undetected.
-38-
CITY OF CARMEL
SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
(Continued)
During the audit of the SEFA, we noted the following errors: (a) total federal expenditures were
incorrectly reported with$712,850 in expenditures being omitted from the schedule; (b)amounts reported for
three of five grant awards were incorrect; and (c) information such as grantor agency, program title, pass-
through entity,Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance(CFDA)number,and pass-through identifying number
were omitted for some grant awards.
We believe the deficiencies discussed above constitute material weaknesses. The errors and
omissions on the SEFA were partially caused by a lack of sufficient internal controls over the preparation of
the SEFA and due to insufficient familiarity with some of the required elements of the SEFA. Audit adjust-
ments were proposed, accepted by the City, and made to the SEFA presented in this report. These adjust-
ments resulted in a presentation of the SEFA that is materially correct in relation to the financial statement.
Governmental units should have internal controls in effect which provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial information and records,effectiveness and efficiency of operations, proper
execution of management's objectives,and compliance with laws and regulations. Among other things,seg-
regation of duties,safeguarding controls over cash and all other assets,and all forms of information process-
ing are necessary for proper internal control.
Controls over the receipting, disbursing, recording, and accounting for the financial activities are
necessary to avoid substantial risk of invalid transactions, inaccurate records and financial statements and
incorrect decision making. (Accounting and Uniform Compliance Guidelines Manual for Cities and Towns,
Chapter 7)
OMB Circular A-133, Subpart C, section .300 states in part: "The auditee shall: . . . (d) Prepare
appropriate financial statements, including the schedule of expenditures of Federal Awards in accordance
with section.310."
OMB Circular A-133, Subpart C, section .310(b) states:
"Schedule of expenditures of Federal awards: The auditee shall also prepare a schedule of
expenditures of Federal awards for the period covered by the auditee's financial statements.
While not required,the auditee may choose to provide information requested by Federal award-
ing agencies and pass-through entities to make the schedule easier to use. For example,when
a Federal program has multiple award years,the auditee may list the amount of Federal awards
expended for each award year separately. At a minimum, the schedule shall:
(1) List individual Federal programs by Federal agency. For Federal programs included in a
cluster of programs, list individual Federal programs within a cluster of programs. For
R&D, total Federal awards expended shall be shown either by individual award or by
Federal agency and major subdivision within the Federal agency. For example, the
National Institutes of Health is a major subdivision in the Department of Health and
Human Services.
(2) For Federal awards received as a subrecipient,the name of the pass-through entity and
indentifying number assigned by the pass-through entity shall be included.
(3) Provide the total Federal awards expended for each individual Federal program and the
CFDA number or other identifying number when the CFDA information is not available.

(Continued)
(4) Include notes that describe the significant accounting policies used in preparing the
schedule.
(5) To the extent practical, pass-through entities should identify in the schedule the total
amount provided to subrecipients from each Federal program.
(6) Include, in either the schedule or a note to the schedule,the value of the Federal awards
expended in the form of non-cash assistance,the amount of insurance in effect during
the year,and loans or loan guarantees outstanding at year end. While not required, it is
preferable to present this information in the schedule."
