- FIN ANCI AL REPORT 1
REPORT OF M AN AGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY l Management is responsible for the preparation and integrity of the financial statements and representations in the annual report. Management uses the best judgement and resources to ensure that such statements present fairly the i I financial positions, results of operations and cash flow of Dairyland Power Cooperative. Dairyland maintains a system ofinternal controls which is designed to provide reasonable assurance that iransac-tions are recorded in accordance with management's authorization, that financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis and that assets are safeguarded.
)
1 The board of directors, through its Audit Comminee. has responsibility fbr determining that management fulfdis its responsibilities for preparation of financial statements and financial control of operations. The Audit Committee meets regularly with management, Dairyland's internal auditor and the Cooperative's independent public accountants to dis-cuss internal control, financial reporting and auditing matters. DAIRYl.AND POWER COOPERKriVF La Crosse, Wisconsin February 28,1997 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLic ACCOUNTANTS To the Members and 11oard of Directors of Dairyland Power Cooperative: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dairyland Power Cooperative (a Wisconsin coopera-tive) and Subsidiaries as of December 31,1996 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of revenues, expens-es and patronage capital and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Cooperative's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the standards fbr financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards (1994 Revision), 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence support-ing the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all m nerial respects, the financial posi-tion of Dairyland Power Cooperative and Subsidiaries as of December 31,1996 and 1995, and the retults of their rev-enues, expenses and patronage capital and their cash flows ihr the years dru ended in conformity with generally l accepted accounting principles. l In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report on our consideration of the j Cooperative's internal control structure and a report on its compliance with laws and regulations, both dated February 28,1997.
