Message from the President I am delighted to share Washington State University's annual report on the 2008 fiscal year with you. This publication provides in-depth information about the fiscal health and operations of WSU during the period beginning July 1, 2607 and concluding June 30, 2008. | |||
The new five-year Strategic Plan adopted by the Board of Regents in 2008 guides the University in its continuing quest to serve students, the citizens of Washington and the greater world. WSU fulfills its distinctive role as the state's land-grant research university through exceptional teaching and research, combined with relevant outreach and engagement. | |||
This report reflects another remarkable year of achievement in all three areas. Among the highlights: | |||
" The University established a School for Global Animal Health in its College of Veterinary Medicine to provide innovative solutions to global infectious diseases through research, education, global outreach and application of disease control at the animal-human interface. A $25 million grant from the Bill & Melinda'Gates Foundation will help construct the-school's $35 million research building. Veterinary pathologist Dr. Guy-Palmer, a member of the'National Academy of Science's Institute of Medicine, is the school's director. | |||
" An internationally recognized microbiologist, Dr.. Birgitte Ahring, joined the University as director of the Center for Bioproducts and Bioenergy and as the Battelle Distinguished Professor, based at WSU Tri-Cities. Much of the Center's research occurs at the Bioproducts, Sciences, and Engineering Laboratory, a $24.8 million facility opened in spring 2008 at the Tri-Cities campus. BSEL is a partnership of WSU and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, operated by Battelle for the U.S. Department of Energy. | |||
* The University embarked on a 10-year, $200 million plan to meet the living needs of this generation of incoming students and the next. We broke ground in May for the first new residence hall to be built on the Pullman campus since 1971, with completion scheduled. by fall of 2009. | |||
* Enrollment figures showed increased student numbers at all WSU campuses, a record influx of freshmen and higher numbers of minority students. The growth was driven by thefirst class of freshmen at WSU Tri-Cities, continued strong freshman. enrollment at WSU Vancouver and the largest freshman class ever at the Pullman campus. Academic qualifications continued to increase as well. " | |||
* Research and philanthropic funding both increased substantially during the 2008 fiscal year. Faculty members received nearly $156 million in new research grant awards, an increase of some 16 percent. Private support rose substantially with. | |||
a record $143,692,185 in gifts, grants, pledges and revocable commitments, a 56 percent increase. | |||
* Construction continued on influential new or remodeled buildings including the College of Nursing building on the Riverpoint campus in Spokane, the Compton Union Building and Biotechnology Life Sciences Building in Pullman, and the Undergraduate Classroom Building at WSU Vancouver. | |||
Washington State University is dedicated to its mission as a leading land-grant research university, advancing knowledge through creative research and scholarship, extending knowledge through innovative educational programs and applying knowledge through local and global engagement. I invite you to learn more about the ways in which the University contributes to a bright future for the state's residents. | |||
Sincerely, Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D. | |||

Management's Discussion and Analysis Management's Discussion and Analysis Introduction The following discussion and analysis provides an overview of the financial position and operations of Washington State University (the University) for the year ended June 30, 2008. This overview has been prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the University's financial statements and accompanying notes. | |||
Founded in Pullman in 1890 as the state's land-grant research university, Washington State University today has campuses in Pullman, Spokane, Tri-Cities and Vancouver. Ten regional learning centers and award-winning Distance Degree Programs offer access to the University's degrees statewide and around the world. Enrollment exceeds 25,000 students who are served by over 2,400 faculty and 3,600 staff members. Among the University's faculty are eight members of the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering. | |||
Considered one of the country's top public research universities, the University has ten academic.icolleges, an Honors College and the Graduate School. The colleges- include: Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences; Business; Education; Engineering and Architecture; Liberal Arts; Nursing; Pharmacy; Sciences; Veterinary Medicine; and the new Edward R. Murrow College of Communication. The University offers more than 250 fields of study including more than 150 majors plus many minors, options and certificate programs. Bachelor's degrees are available in all major areas with master's and doctoral degrees available in most. Professional degrees are offered in pharmacy and veterinary medicine. Last year, over 5,900 degrees, including bachelor's;' master's,.professiohal and doctoral degrees, were corifer'-ed. | |||
The University is known for research strengths in such diverse areas as biotechnology, reproductive biology, shockphysics, viticulture, sleep research, wood technology, computer chips and advertising's impact on healthy decision-making. Research stations are located in Lind, Long Beach, Mount Vernon, Othello, Prosser, Puyallup and Wenatchee. There are extension offices in all 39 Washington counties. | |||
Using the Financial Statements The.financial statements presented in this report encompass the University and its discretely presented component units. | |||
The Management's Discussion and Analysis, however, focuses only on the University: The University's financial reports include the Statement of Net Assets, the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets, and the Statement of Cash Flows. These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) principles and focus on the University as a whole. | |||
Financial Highlights Overall, the University's financial position improved during the year ended June 30, 2008: | |||
" Assets increased by $104 million to end the year at $1.9 billion. | |||
" Liabilities increased by $32 million to end the year at $435 million. | |||
" Net assets, which represent the residual of assets after deducting liabilities, increased by $72 million to end the year at $1.4 billion. | |||
Other significant changes to operations were as follows: | |||
" Revenues from all sources totaled $900 million, an increase of $57 million over fiscal year 2007. | |||
* Expenses totaled $828 million, an increase of $85 million over last year. | |||
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $111 million. | |||
2008 Finandal Report | |||
Management's Discussion and Analysis Condensed Financial Information and Analysis FinancialPosition-Statementof Net Assets The Statement of Net Assets is a snapshot ofithe University's financial position at fiscal year end. It lists the University's assets (economic resources), liabilities (creditors' claims) and net assets (residual interest in assets after paying creditors) based on end-of-year data. | |||
Assets are: classified as current, non-current or capital. Current assets are expected to benefit the University within 12 months and include cash, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses and investments that can easily be converted into cash to meet University expenses. Non-current assets include endowment fund assets, student loans receivable and investments expected to be held more than one year. Capital assets include construction in-progress, library materials, furniture and equipment, land, buildings and improvements and are reported net of accumulated depreciation. | |||
Liabilities are classified as current or non-current. Current liabilities are claims that are due and payable within 12 months and include payroll and:benefits, amounts payable to suppliers for goods and services receivedand debt principal payments due within one year. Non-current liabilities are obligations payable beyond ore year and include bond obligations, installment contracts, leases and earned but unused vacation and sick'leave. | |||
Net assets are divided into five categories: | Net assets are divided into five categories: | ||

Several bond funded construction projects were completed or were very close to completion during the year and invested bond proceeds were liquidated and spent on the construction costs, resulting in a decrease of $49 million in cash and investments. In addition, accounts receivable increased by $9 million of which $8 million were construction costs paid on state funded projects that had not been reimbursed by the state at June 30. | ||
'bt -" $ 875,094,055, 8" | " Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $ 111 million.

Several bond funded construction projects were completed or were very close to completion during the year and invested bond proceeds were liquidated and spent on the construction costs, resulting in a decrease of $49 million in cash and investments. | ° Net assets increased by $72 million. | ||
In addition, accounts receivable increased by $9 million of which $8 million were construction costs paid on state funded projects that had not been reimbursed by the state at June 30." Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $ 111 million. This increase reflects continued large capital projects underway across campus to. build new facilities and renovate others. Additions to construction in progress and buildings were $96 million, net of depreciation. | Financial Health and Flexibility There are a number of ratios used by the debt rating agencies to gauge financial health and flexibility. One of the more significant ratios used to measure operating flexibility is the ratio of expendable net assets to total expenses. Expendable net assets (defined as restricted expendable net assets plus unrestricted net assets) can be accessed relatively quickly and spent to satisfy current obligations. This ratio indicates how long the University could function using its expendable reserves without relying on additional assets generated by operations. The University had sufficient expendable net assets in 2008 to cover 4.5 months of operations, unchanged from 2007. . | ||
Land increased by $9 million." Current liabilities increased by $9 million. $8 million was accrued construction costs payable at year-end. | Another between popular 0.4 timesratio, used to 1.2 to measure times would bedebt cushion,, is the ratio of expendable net assets (as-defined above) to debt. A ratio considered good coverage by one of the major rating agencies. The University's debt cushion remained constant at 0.9 times in 2008 and 2007. | ||
In addition, deferred revenues were up by $2 million, reflecting increased revenues for the Alive program and increased season ticket sales for Athletics. | Results of Operations-Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets is 'the University's equivalent of an income statement. It shows the sources and amounts of revenues earned and nature and amount of expenses incurred during the year, classified as operating, non-operating or other. | ||
Other short term liabilities decreased by $1 million." Non-current liabilities increased by $22 million.reflecting | Operating revenues are the inflows of funds from providing goods and services to the University's customers.

Revenue projections have been reduced in each quarter beginning with November 2007. While the University's state operating budget for fiscal year 2008 remained intact without suffering any reductions, the University is expecting operating budget reductions during fiscal year 2009. The reduction amount expected to be proposed by the governor, based on December 2008 data, is $10.5 million. Additional reductions are a possibility | Octobr. S areas and current and future laboratory space in support of. | ||
The amount of the reductions will not be known until the Washington Legislature adopts its 2009-11 biennium budget during the 2009 legislative session.State appropriations for operations will continue to be a significant portion of the University's financial support in fiscal year 2009. The appropriation for operations, as of December 2008, is $253.8 million and reflects an'increase of $4.2 million from fiscal year 2008 (a 1.6% increase). | the University s Center for Precision Agricultural Systemrs Find 2007'~~~Saeaporain .~K4~~25 AgWeatherNet -programs in' researcheducation and outreah ',i Long-Term Debt At June 30, 2008, the University had $299,364,810 in outstanding debt, representing an increase of $16,946,729, or 6%, in debt from the prior year. The table below summarizes outstanding debt: | ||

Capital appropriations are approved for a two-year period and the appropriations for the 2007-09 biennia were $219.9 million. Federal appropriations for the University's land.grant programs are expected to remain near a $9.0 million funding level;..As in prior years, student tuition and fees will be increased, with a portion of the incremental revenue used for'financial aid.Tuition rates will be increased by 7% for resident and non-resident students for all progr~ams'except Pharm acyl which will be raised 10%. Enrollment is expected to be 4.9 % higher than 2008, at.23,425 annual average full time equivalents for the four-campus system. Overall, the University expects net tuition and fee revenues to provide $168.5 million to support operations, an 8.2% increase over 2008.Federal sponsored research and other programs are the largest portionof externally funded grant expenditures. | .General obhliation bonds payable. ,, ': $ '. 51,467,666.;$ S.6,5802.,644 $ (5,331978) | ||
Federal.funding supported 66.9% of University projects, and 33:1% were supported by non-federal funding in 2008. Research project expenditures were nearly flat between 2008 and 2007, whereas non-research project expenditures significantly increased by almost 11%. Federal non-research programs and non-federal sponsored programs, both research and non-research, have grown in recent years, offsetting the slow-down in federal sponsored research programs. | Revenue bonds payable, net 234,461,349 211,589,662 22,871,687, lese 7'Oa 13 435;795~ .'~4O575 ~5990 Total debt $ 299,364,810 $ 282,418,081 $16,946,729 The University issued $26 million in May of 2008 to fund construction of the first new residence hall on the Pullman campus, since 1971. :This project is scheduled to be completed in August 2009 and revenues from t~he Housing and Dining System have been pledged to meet debt service. | ||
Growth in overal! sponsored-projects for the past two years has been near 4% and the growth was associated.primarily With non-research sponsored projects. | The University's bond rating on the bcnd issue was Aaa by Moody's Investors Services due to the purchase of municipal bond insurance from an insurer with a Aaa financial strength rating, with an underlying rating of A2.

This trend is expected to continue in fiscal year 2009, although non-federal research has been growing during this fiscal year.

Washington State Auditor Brian Sonntag INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT January 8, 2009 Board of Regents Washington State University Pullman, Washington We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the business-type activities and the discretely presented component unit of Washington State University as of and for the year ended June 30, 2008, which collectively comprise the University's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. | |||
These financial statements are the responsibility of the University's management. | Economic Outlook The State of Washington's general fund revenue collection forecasts for the 2007-09 biennium have been adjusted downward significantly from initial forecasts at the start of the biennium. Revenue projections have been reduced in each quarter beginning with November 2007. While the University's state operating budget for fiscal year 2008 remained intact without suffering any reductions, the University is expecting operating budget reductions during fiscal year 2009. The reduction amount expected to be proposed by the governor, based on December 2008 data, is $10.5 million. Additional reductions are a possibility ifWashington's revenue forecasts continue to decline during 2009. Also, due to revenue forecast reductions for the upcoming 2009-11 biennium, the University expects significant state operating budget reductions for the nextbiennium. The amount of the reductions will not be known until the Washington Legislature adopts its 2009-11 biennium budget during the 2009 legislative session. | ||
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Washington State University Foundation. | State appropriations for operations will continue to be a significant portion of the University's financial support in fiscal year 2009. The appropriation for operations, as of December 2008, is $253.8 million and reflects an'increase of $4.2 million from fiscal year 2008 (a 1.6% increase). If the $1 0.5 million expected reduction is enacted by the Legislature in 2009, the fiscal year 2009 appropriation will be 97.4% of the fiscal year 2008 appropriation. Capital appropriations are approved for a two-year period and the appropriations for the 2007-09 biennia were $219.9 million. Federal appropriations for the University's land. | ||
Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Washington State University Foundation, is based on the report of the other auditors.We conducted our audit-in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. | grant programs are expected to remain near a $9.0 million funding level;.. | ||
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. | As in prior years, student tuition and fees will be increased, with a portion of the incremental revenue used for'financial aid. | ||
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. | Tuition rates will be increased by 7% for resident and non-resident students for all progr~ams'except Pharm acyl which will be raised 10%. Enrollment is expected to be 4.9 % higher than 2008, at.23,425 annual average full time equivalents for the four-campus system. Overall, the University expects net tuition and fee revenues to provide $168.5 million to support operations, an 8.2% increase over 2008. | ||
We believe that our audit and the report of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements of Washington State University are intended to present the financial position, and the changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows of only that portion of the business-type activities of the state of Washington that.is attributable to the transactions of the University. | Federal sponsored research and other programs are the largest portionof externally funded grant expenditures.

We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. | funding supported 66.9% of University projects, and 33:1% were supported by non-federal funding in 2008. Research project expenditures were nearly flat between 2008 and 2007, whereas non-research project expenditures significantly increased by almost 11%. Federal non-research programs and non-federal sponsored programs, both research and non-research, have grown in recent years, offsetting the slow-down in federal sponsored research programs. Growth in overal! sponsored-projects for the past two years has been near 4% and the growth was associated.primarily With non-research sponsored projects. This trend is expected to continue in fiscal year 2009, although non-federal research has been growing during this fiscal year. The longer-term outlook is more uncertain due to possible federal funding constraints and deficits and the economic conditions nation-wide, which could constrain both federal and non-federal project activities. | ||
However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the University's basic financial statements. | Private gift support is expected to continue to grow, with a target of $100 million during fiscal year 2008, which is a 25% | ||

$ 355,198,013, Interest Rate Risk-Investments Through its investment policies, the University manages exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest ratesby limiting the modified duration of the operating portfolio to 1.1 years and by cash matching the dedicated bond portfolios to the anticipated construction schedules of the underlying projects.Current use gift funds are segmented into short-term, intermediate-term and long-term pools. University policies limit the portfolio average maturity of the short-term pool to one year or less, the portfolio average maturity of the intermediate-term pool to three years or less and the portfolio average maturity of the long-term pool to ten years or less.University endowments fall under the Foundation investment policy, which employs broad asset class diversification to ýcontrol overall endowment fund volatility, and limits fixed income investments to a maximum of 15% of total endowment fund assets.Concentration of Credit Risk-investments State law limits University operating investments to the highest quality sectors of the domestic fixed income market and specifically excludes corporate stocks, corporate and foreign bonds, futures contracts, commodities, real estate, limited partnerships and negotiable certificates of deposit. University policy does not limit the amount the University may invest in any one issuer.Custodial Credit Risk-Investments Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the University will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. At June 30, 2008, $146,048,882 of the University's operating fund investments, held by Bank of New York Mellon in the bank's name as agent for the University, and $166,814 of endowment assets, held in street name by E*trade for the account of the University, are exposed to custodial credit risk as described in Table 4.Table 4: Investments exposed to Custodial Credit Risk University Investment type Fair Value',Cornmerclal pape,, 1479,642, Repurchase agreements 4,196,142 USagency discount notes 1,-10,15 US agency obligations 116 ,197,864 Mortgage Pass'Throughs 41 _,__________:_:9,745,084 Subtotal 146,048,882 Total Investments exposed to custodial credit risk $ 146,215,696 2008 Finandal Report *21 Notes to the Financial Statements Foreign Currency Risk-Investments University endowment exposure to foreign currency risk at June 30, 2008, is described in Table 5 and is limited by Foundation investment policy.Table S: University Foreign Currency Risk Foreign currency Fair Value 2Eu6i t7,lI ~ ,,' 1,835,607T Japan (Yen) 1,388,574 Australia (Dollar) 674,515 heth (le~sstbar',5%$HY>1 Total foreign currency ;. 5 8,955,871 Investment Expenses Under implementation of GASB 35, investment income for the University is shown net of investment expenses. | -Private equity 3,434,844 | ||

: 19. Contingent Liabilities There is a class action lawsuit filed against the state of Washington on behalf of certain employees alleging improper denial of healthcare benefits. Although WSU has not been named as a defendant in the lawsuit, some of the class members are current or former employees of WSU. | |||
Accordingly, it is possible that the state could assess the University with a material share of any amount paid in the event of a settlement or judgment. Due to the status of the lawsuit, the impact upon WSU cannot be assessed with reasonable certainty at present. | |||

$ | Message from the President It is an honor for me to share with you Washington State University's annual report for the 2009 fiscal year. This publication provides in-depth information about the fiscal health and operations of WSU during the period beginning on July 1, 2008, and concluding on June 30, 2009. | ||
$ | The year provided many indicators of substantial institutional strength. Some of the highlights include: | ||
* Gene and Linda Voiland donated an unprecedented $1 7.5 million-to the School of Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering to advance research and to hire faculty in the areas of renewable fuels and sustainable energy. Yong Wang, an internationally known researcher in catalysis and biorenewable energy, joins the WSU faculty as the first Voiland Distinguished Professor. | |||
Demand for a WSU education remained: high. Record enrollment figures showed increased student numbers at all-WSU campuses, a record influx of freshmen, and higher numbers of minority students, Enrollment increased 3.9 percent statewide, from 24,396 in fall 2007 to 25,352 in fall 2008.. | |||
To recognize high academic achievement, the WSU Office of Admissions announced that Washington students who rank in the'top ten percent of their high school class or who have at least a 3.5 GPA at the time of application would be assured admission. | |||
WSU graduate student numbers continued to climb for fall 2008, with 3,396 graduate students, up two percent. The | |||
.increase was primarily on the Pullman and Spokane campuses. | |||
$ | WSU Distance Degree Programs experienced a 22percent'increase in online students in fall 2008, following an average five percent annual increase over the previous six years. The prbgram, one of the nation's most successful, enhances our ability to ensure student access to a quality WSU education. | ||
* Washington State University completed its extensive self-review for renewed accreditation, which was received in positive fashion from the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities.............:-. . - | |||
This | ° The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching classifies WSU in the elite group of Research Universities with Very High Research Activity. In December 2008, this Foundation awarded WSU its Community Engagement Classification in the dual categories of curricular engagement and outreach and partnerships. | ||
$ | * In September 2008, the extensively renovated Compton Union Building opened, while construction proceeded apace on our Olympia Avenue residence hall; the first to be built on the Pullman campus since 1971. | ||
- We are building for the future statewide with a new $34 million Nursing Building at WSU Spokane, a new $28 million Undergraduate Classroom building at WSU Vancouver, and $72 million Biotechnology/Life Sciences Building on the Pullman campus. Additional important facilities are on the drawing board. | |||
Toward the end of the 2009 fiscal year, WSU was asked by the state to cut its budget and return $10.5 million which had been previously allocated to the University. This reduction was part of a statewide action to address declining state revenues. | |||
Despite this financial challenge, Washington State University remains dedicated to its mission as a leading land-grant research university to advance knowledge through creative. research and scholarship, extend knowledge through innovative education, and apply knowledge through local and global engagement. Through our research and-scholarly endeavors, WSU enhances. | |||
the lives of people around the globe and contributes to the economic and academic vitality of the state, nation, and world. | |||
Sincerely, Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D. | |||

Management's Discussion and Analysis Management's Discussion and Analysis Introduction The following discussion and analysis provides an overview of the financial position and operations of Washington State University (the University) for the year ended June 30, 2009. This overview has been prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the University's financial statements and accompanying notes. | |||
$ | Founded in Pullman in 1890 as the state's land-grant research university, Washington State University today has campuses in Pullman, Spokane, Tri-Cities and Vancouver. Ten regional learning centers and award-winning Distance Degree Programs offer access to the University's degrees statewide and around the world. Enrollment exceeds 25,300 students who are served by over 2,300 faculty and 3,600.staff members. Among the University's faculty are nine members of the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine. | ||
Considered one of the country's top public'research universities, the University has ten academic colleges, an Honors College and the-Graduate School. The colleges include: Agricultural, Human, and-Natural Resource Sciences; Business; Communications; Education; Engineering and Architecture; Liberal Arts; Nursing; Pharmacy; Sciences; and Veterinary Medicine. | |||
The University offers more than 250 fields of study including more than 150 majors plus many minors, options and certificate programs. Bachelor's degrees are available in all major areas with master's and doctoral degrees available in most. Professional degrees are offered in Pharmacy and Veterinary Medicine. Last year, 6,004 degrees, including bachelor's, master's, professional and doctoral degrees, were conferred. | |||
The University is known for research strengths in such diverse areas as biotechnology, reproductive biology, shock physics, viticulture, sleep research, wood technology, computer chips and advertising's impact on healthy decision-making. Research stations are located in Lind, Long Beach, Mount Vernon, Othello,, Prosser, Puyallup, and Wenatchee. There are extension offices in all 39 Washington counties. | |||
Using the Financial Statements The financial statements presented* in this report encompass the University and its discretely presented component units. The management's discussion and analysis, however, focuses only on the University. The University's financial reports include the Statement of Net Assets, the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets, and the Statement of Cash Flows. | |||
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements which establish standards for external financial reporting for public colleges and universities. GASB standards require that financial statements be presented to focus on the University as a whole. | |||
Financial Highlights Overall, the University's financial position improved during the year ended June 30, 2009: | |||
" Assets increased by $66 million to end the year at $1.94 billion. | |||
- Liabilities decreased by $4.5 million to end the year at $430 million. | |||
" Net assets, which represent the residual of assets after deducting liabilities, increased by $71 million to end the year at | |||
$1.5 billion. | |||
Other significant changes to operations were as follows: | |||
* Revenues from all sources totaled $906 million, an increase of $6.2 million over fiscal year 2008. | |||
" Expenses totaled $835 million, an increase of $7.1 million over last year. | |||
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $99 million. | |||
2009 Finandal-Retxrt | |||
Management's Discussion and Analysis Condensed Financial Information and Analysis FinancialPosition-Statementof Net Assets The Statement of Net Assets is a snapshot of the University's financial position at fiscal year end. It lists the University's assets (economic resources), liabilities (creditors' claims) and net assets (residual interest in assets after paying creditors) based on end-of-year data. | |||
Assets are classified as current, non-current or capital. Current assets are expected to, benefit the' University within 12 months and include cash, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses and investments that can easily be co'nverted into cash to meet University expenses. Non-current assets include endowment fund assets, student loans receivable and investments expected to be held more than one year. Capital assets include construction in-progress, library materials, furniture and equipment, land, buildings and improvements and are reported net of accumulated depreciation.,. | |||
Liabilities are classified as current or non-current. Current liabilities are claims that are due and payable within 12 months and include payroll and benefits, amounts payable to suppliers for goods and services received, and debt principal payments due within one year. Non-current liabilities are obligations payable beyond one year and include borad obligations, installment contracts, leases and earned but unused vacation and sick leave. | |||
Net assets are divided into five categories: | |||
Invested I In capital assets-net of related debt: represent the University's capital assets net of accumulated | |||
*depreciation and outstanding principal balances of debt attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. | |||
* Restricted---non expendable net assets: University endowment funds, Land Grant Endowment.funds and similar funds for which donors or outside sources have stipulated as a condition of the gift that the principal be maintained in perpetuity. | |||
* Restricted-loans: funds that have been established for the explicit purpose of providing student support as prescribed by statute or granting authority. | |||
* Restricted-expendable net assets: funds that are subject to externally imposed restrictions governing their use, such as scholarships, fellowships, research, loans, professorships, capital projects, and debt service. | |||
* Unrestricted net assets: represent those assets that are available to the University.for any lawful purpose. | |||

Significant Changes in the Statements of Net Assets | |||
" Current assets decreased by $26 million. Several bond funded construction projects were completed during the year and invested bond proceeds were liquidated and spent on the construction costs resulting in a decrease of $27 million in cash and investments. In addition, accounts receivable increased by $1 million. | |||
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $99 million. This increase reflects the continuing construction costs | |||
*of several large building and infrastructure projects across the campuses. Complete or nearly complete were the new | |||
* Biotechnology/Life Sciences building, the Vancouver Undergraduate Classroom Building, the Olympia Avenue residence hall and the Library Road infrastructure project. | |||
Non-current liabilities decreased by $4 million: With no new bonds issued in 2009, bonds payable decreased by $9 million, the result of principal repayments. The University's net pension obligation increased by $5 million as calculated by the State Actuary, based on forecasts of lower earnings on retirement accounts which may increase the supplemental liability. | |||
* Net assets increased by $71 million. | |||
Financial Health and Flexibility There are a number of ratios used by the debt rating agencies to gauge financial health and flexibility. Orie of the more significant ratios used to measure operating flexibility is the ratio of expendable net assets to total expenses. Expendable net assets (defined as restricted expendable net assets plus unrestricted net assets) can be accessed relatively quickly and spent to satisfy current obligations. This ratio indicates how long the University could function using its expendable reserves without relying on additional assets generated by operations. The University had sufficient expendable net assets to cover 2.7 months of operations in 2009, a decrease from 2008 which was 4.5 months. This decreasewas the direct result of the recession and the decrease in investment earnings. | |||
Another popular ratio, used to measure debt cushion, is the ratio of expendable net assets (as defined above) to debt. A ratio between 0.4 times to 1.2 times would be considered good coverage by one of the major rating agencies. The University's debt cushion decreased to 0.6 times in 2009, down from 0.9 times in 2008. Again, this decrease is also a result of the poor economy. | |||
Results of Operations-Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets is the University's equivalent of an income statement. It shows the sources and amounts of revenues earned and nature and amount of expenses incurred during the year, classified as operating, non-operating or other. | |||
Operating revenues are the inflows of funds from providing goods and services to the University's customers. They include tuition and fees, grant and contract payments, and sales and service revenue generated by student housing, student dining and other University enterprises. Operating expenses are the funds used up in generating operating revenues and in carrying out the University's mission. | |||
Non-operating revenues are revenues earned for which goods and services are not provided and include state appropriations, current-use gifts and grants that are designated for purposes other than capital construction, land grant endowment income, endowment distributions and investment income. Non-operating expenses include interest expense on long-term debt. | |||
Other revenues and expenses include capital appropriations, capital gifts or grants, additions to permanent endowments and gains or losses on the disposal of capital assets. | |||

Signifi cant Changes in the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets Operating revenues increased by $32 million. Student enrollment increased by 956 students and coupled with a 7% increase in the tuition rate resulted in $1 7.5 million more dollars in Tuition and Fees. Auxiliary enterprises revenue increased by 6% or $6 million due to the increased enrollment and an increase of 8.8% in the Housing and Dining rate and because of the reopening of the remodeled student union building in the fall of 2008. Increases in federal and local grants accounted for the remainder of the increases. | |||
Operating expenses increased overall by $8 million. Salaries were up by $13 million due to an authorized 4% pay increase in the fall of 2008. This increase was largely offset by a 4.4% reduction in benefits expense as a result of a $4 million adjustment reducing deferred compensation liability. Utilities expense decreased by $5 million as result of decrease natural gas costs and a change in telecommunication billing. Payments for goods and services decreased by $3 million primarily as a result of a State imposed freeze on travel and equipment purchases. Scholarships and fellowships were up by $4 million as a result of more students qualifying for financial aid. Depreciation increased by $3 million as new buildings and infrastructure were added. | |||
Net non-operating revenues decreased by $60 million. Gifts and contributions were down by $6 million and investment income decreased by $47 million due to the recession in the economy. Federal appropriations decreased by $2 million. Other non-operating revenues decreased by $5 million. | |||
Other revenues increased by $34.5 million. State capital appropriations increased by $34.5 million largely due to the appropriation of the Vancouver Applied Technology Building to be completed in September of 2011. | |||
Operating Performance Rating agencies use a number of ratios to assess operating performance. One of the ratios more commonly used by Moody's is annual operating margin, which compares operating surplus (or deficit) to operating revenues. Moody's definition of operating revenues includes several non-operating revenues in determining margin and an estimated spending rate of the University's investments rather than actual investment income. This ratio indicates the extent to which the University is balancing revenues with expenses and growing its resource base. In spite of the difficult economic conditions, the University's annual operating margin in 2009 was -3.34% which was an improvement over fiscal year 2008's annual operating margin of -5.05%. | |||

As the above graphs show, the university has a diversified revenue base. No single source of revenue generated more than 27% | |||
of the total fiscal year revenues for 2009 and 2008. State operating appropriations were $246.5 million comprising 27% of total revenue for 2009. The university relies on this state funding which subsidizes its instructional activities allowing for lower tuition rates. | |||
Grants and contracts generated $201 million or 22% of total revenue. This was an increase of $11 million over 2008. These funds support the university's research activities which allow students to work with nationally recognized faculty as part of their educational experience. | |||
State capital appropriations totaled $94.2 million (11% of total revenue). This was an increase of $ 34.5 million over 2008. This was largely the result of the new funding for the Vancouver Undergraduate Classroom Building to be completed in May 2011 and the Biotechnology/Life Sciences Facility, completed in June 2009. | |||
Auxiliary enterprises generated $101 million in revenues representing 11% of the total revenue. This was an increase of $6 million over 2008. Auxiliary enterprises are essential supporting activities, such as university residences, intercollegiate athletics, and the student union. | |||

The above graphs demonstrate that during 2009 expenditures increased in the Research and Public Service areas by 1% each. | |||
Overall, expenditures increased by $8.4 million. Expenditures for research increased by $9.4 million, or 1% of total due to an increase in grants and contracts, including stimulus grants. The net change in all other operating expenditures consisted of increases in instruction costs and scholarships offset by decreases in nearly all other program areas. | |||
(Note: for the purposes of these graphs, depreciation has been allocated to the programs.) | |||
Capital Assets and Long-Term Debt Activities Capital Assets At June 30, 2009, the University had $1,242,463,648 invested in capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation. This represents an increase of $99,054,316, or 8.6%, over last year, as shown in the table below: | |||

Interest Rate Risk-Investments Through its investment policies, the University manages exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates by limiting the modified duration of the operating portfolio to 1.1 years and by cash matching the dedicated bond portfolios to the anticipated construction schedules of the underlying projects. | |||
Current use gift funds are segmented into short-term, intermediate-term and long-term pools. University policies limit the portfolio average maturity of the short-term pool to one year or less, the portfolio average maturity of the intermediate-term pool to three years or less, and the portfolio average maturity of the long-term pool to ten.years or less. | |||
University endowments fall'under the Foundation investment policy, which employs broad asset class diversification to control overall endowment fund volatility, and limits fixed income investments to a maximum of 15% of total endowment fund assets. | |||
Concentration of Credit Risk-investments State law limits University operating investments to the highest quality sectors of the domestic fixed income market and specifically excludes corporate stocks, corporate and foreign bonds, futures contracts, commodities, real estate, limited partnerships and negotiable certificates of deposit. University policy does not limit the amount the University may invest in any one issuer. | |||
Custodial Credit Risk-Investments Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty ,toa .transaction, the University will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. At June 30, 2009, $116,750,522 of the University's operating fund investments, held by Bank of New York Mellon in the bank's name as agent for the University, and $836,530 of endowment assets, held in street name by E'trade for the account of the University, are exposed to custodial credit risk as described in Table 4. | |||

RAI1
- 1. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff will analyze the financial statements for the current year, which are required by 10 CFR 50.71(b), to determine if the applicant is financially qualified to operate the WSU TRIGA. Since WSU's financial statements are currently out of date, please provide a copy of the latest financial statements for the NRC staff's review.
Response to RAI 1.
The financial reports for Washington State University Fiscal Years 2008 and 2009, covering the period of July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2008, and the period of July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2009, respectively, are included with this document.
Electronic copies of the annual financial statements for fiscal years 2004 through 2009 may also be found at:
http://www.wsu.edu/.qenacct/finstat.htm
RAI 2
- 2. Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.33(f)(2), "[t]he applicant shall submit estimates for total annual operating costs for each of the first five years of operation of the facility."
Since the information included in the application for the WSU TRIGA is now out of date, please provide the.following, additional information:
(a) The estimated operating costs for the WSU TRIGA for each of the fiscal years (FY) 2012 through FY2016 (the first five year period after the projected license renewal).
(b) WSU's source(s) of funding to cover the operating costs for the above fiscal years (e.g. state-funded budget, etc.).
Response to RAI 2 (a).
The annual operating costs for the WSU reactor facility can be divided into categories for the purpose of calculating current costs, and projecting future costs. The cost categories that are used include personnel, department expenses, and utilities, and are summarized in Table 2.a.1.
The currently authorized number of Full Time Equivalent (FTE) employees at the WSU facility is 3.5 FTE. These positions are Director (1 FTE), Reactor Supervisor (1 FTE),
Reactor Technician (1 FTE), and Administrative Assistant (0.5 FTE). WSU is currently in the process of conducting a search to add an additional staff member, to be classified under the State of Washington civil service classification system as Research Technologist 3.
Estimated department expenses are based on prior year expenditures for items such as office and laboratory supplies, repair and component expenses, equipment purchases and wages for part-time student employees. The departmental expenses for FY 2009 totaled
$89,742. For purposes of estimating future expenses, the expense of $89,742 was increased at a rate of 4% per year, for every year through 2016. Utilities expenses are estimated based upon communications with the university utility supplier in 2007.
Page 1 of 10
Table 2.a.1 Estimated Operating Costs for the Years 2012 - 2016 WSU Fiscal Year Expense Category 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Personnel (a) $318,547 $331,288 $344,540 $358,322 $372,654 Department Expenses $100,948 $104,986 $109,185 $113,553 $118,095 Utilities $23,795 $24,747 $25,737 $26,766 $27,836 Total $441,495 $459,154 $477,520 $496,622 $516,486 (a) Includes both salary and benefit expense. Personnel expense was determined by holding all personnel expenses constant for 2010 and 2011, then incrementing each subsequent year by 4%.
Operating Costs The personnel expense for 2012 was determined by increasing the 2010 expense by 4%,
and then incrementing the expense by an additional 4% for each subsequent year.
Department expenses for 2012 were determined by incrementing the department expense for FY 2009 by 4 % for each year following 2009 through 2016. Utilities were likewise incremented up by 4% each year.
Department Expenses There is some flexibility in accrual of department operating expenses; generally, as service work for others increases, expenses also increase. As a result, department operating expenses scale with outside sources of income. As of January 31, 2010 the WSU/NRC has generated $111,954.80 income inrwork for others for FY 2010. Typical revenue derived from work for others over the last three fiscal years has been in the range of $200,000 - $250,000 per year. Revenue generated by work for others will be used to make up the difference between the state allocation and actual department expenses.
Response to RAI 2 (b).
Allocations The state allocation for personnel and expenses that is budgeted for FY 2010 is about
$328,918, as of February 1, 2010. The budgeted number sometimes makes small mid-year corrections, which account for a small percentage (generally less than 2%) of the total allocation. Changes can also result from changeover of personnel. The utilities cost is not charged directly against department allocations or accounts, but is an expense that is managed through the university central budget office. The cost for positions that are charged to the account that is funded by the state (Director (1 FTE), Reactor Supervisor (1 FTE) and Administrative Assistant (0.5 FTE)) are completely funded by the state. It is anticipated that a newly hired Reactor Operator will also be a state-funded civil service position. Any additional positions that might be added (e.g. additional Reactor Operators or research personnel) would be funded entirely by grants or funds generated by commercial work for others.

The cost is paid through the university accounting system.
(b) Includes salaries and benefits (c) Calculated as of January 31, 2010 Summary The 3.5 FTE (Director, Reactor Supervisor, Reactor Operator, Administrative Assistant),
some departmental operating expenses, and utilities are funded directly by the state.
Additional sources of income, such as work for others and grants have supplemented the allocation provided by the state. Additional staff positions are funded through extramural support (contracts, grants, etc.) that must be obtained before hiring additional personnel. It should be borne in mind that the.-difference, between direct state support and department expenses does not necessarily imply that there is a departmental operating deficit. The department routinely generates sufficient income from grants and contracts to cover all expenses in excess of those covered directly by the state.
RAI 3
- 3. The application references a decommissioning cost estimate developed by the Nuclear Division of Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1989. The application states that "The 2000 inflation adjusted decommissioning costs are estimated to be
$4,994,615," and will be adjusted for inflation using the consumer price index. In order for the NRC staff to complete its review of the decommissioning cost estimate, please update the application by including the following additional information:
(a) A current decommissioning cost estimate (2011 dollars) for the WSU TRIGA to meet the NRC's radiological release criteria for decommissioning the facility for unrestricted use to comply with 10 CFR 50.75(d)(2). Accordingly, describe the basis on how the cost estimate was developed (if the 1989 Nuclear Division of Westinghouse Electric Corporation estimate is still the basis for the cost estimate, please so state), show costs specifically broken down into categories of labor, waste disposal, other items (such as energy, equipment, and supplies),
and include a contingency factor of at least 25 percent.
(b) A statement of the decommissioning method to be used (e.g. DECON, SAFSTOR, or other method).
(c) A description of the means of adjusting the cost estimate and associated funding level periodically over the life of the facility, to comply with 10 CFR 50.75(d)(2)(ii).
Since the application states that the cost "will be adjusted for inflation by the Page 3 of 10
consumer price index," confirm whether that is still the means of adjusting the WSU TRIGA's cost estimate and associated funding level over the life of the facility. If the consumer price index (CPI) is still the means of adjusting the cost estimate, provide a full identification of the specific U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI to be used (e.g., Producer Price Index, etc.). Also please provide a detailed numerical example updating the 2011 decommissioning cost estimate.
Response to RAI 3 Part (a)
The decommissioning cost estimate was provided by the Nuclear and Advanced Technology Division of the Westinghouse Electric Corp. The cover letter provided by the Manager of Installation and Construction Services is dated February 15, 1988, although this appears to be an error, as the document control number is 9022M;1 E-021489, indicating that the report was prepared on February 14, 1989. Additional correspondence in our files supports the February 14, 1989 date.
The cost categories are described in Table 4 of the 1989 Westinghouse cost estimate. A complete copy of the cost estimate, which describes work scope, and the bases for determining costs of various work components, is included with this document. The cost components are summarized in Table 3.a.1.
Table 3:a.1. Cost Components of the 1989 Decommissioning Cost Estimate Cost Category Estimated Cost ($) in 1989 Disposal of radioactive wastes $565,000 Labor $2,314,000 Tools, Equipment and Supplies (10% of $231,000 labor)
Misc, Overhead (Energy, Fees, Insurance, $231,000 Travel & Living, etc.) 10% of labor Subtotal $3,341,000 Contingency (15%) $501,000 Total Costs $3,842,000 Adjusting the subtotal of $3,341,000 for inflation to 2009 (the latest calendar year for which Consumer Price Index inflation values are available) gives an estimated decommissioning cost, without contingency, of $5,394,970. Adding a 25% contingency, $1,348,743 gives a total of $6,743,713 for calendar year 2009. The average CPI inflation rate for the years 1991 through 2008 is 2.6%. The date source is the U. S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index - All Urban Consumers, which may be found at:
ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cpi/cpiai.txt
\
Using the average inflation value to adjust the decommissioning cost to 2011 gives a decommissioning cost of $7,093,119. The estimated costs for 2009, 2010, and 2011 are given in the following table.
Page 4 of 10
Table 3.a.2 Estimated Cost for Decommissioning for 2009, 2010, 2011 Based upon the 1989 Decommissioning Cost Estimate Calendar CPI Inflation Decommissioning 25% Total year Rate (a Cost Contingency 2009 2.7% $5,394,970 $1,348,743 $6,743,713 2010 2.6% $5,532,968 $1,383,242 $6,916,210 2011 2.6% $5,674,495 $1,418,624 $7,093,119 Please refer to the response for RAI 3, Part (c) for a complete numerical example updating the cost to 2011 dollars by the method described in NUREG-1 307.
The cost estimate that was provided by the Nuclear and Advanced Technology Division of the Westinghouse Electric Corp. has been adjusted for each year, starting in 1991, by multiplying the total cost provided in the cost estimate (including a 15% contingency fee) by the average December to December inflation adjustment that is annually reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Continual adjustments have been made every year from 1991 through 2009 (the latest year for which BLS inflation values are available). The annual adjusted Estimated Cost for Decommissioning which has been tabulated and updated each year is included as an attachment to this document.
Reevaluation of Waste Disposal Cost Estimate Upon further examination, of current waste disposal costs, and comparing the annually updated WSU cost estimate on the basis of annual CPI incremental increases, it was decided to reevaluate the decommissioning cost estimate to determine whether a more comprehensive determination is warranted. As a result, WSU has recalculated the cost estimate, using some of the methodology described in NUREG-1 307, to the extent that it is applicable in the present cost estimating process, to estimate a reasonable bracket for decommissioning costs.
The current cost estimate for decommissioning is partly estimated according to the method provided in NUREG-1307, and corrected to 2011 dollars. This is done by using the formula to determine estimated cost in Year X as a function of estimated cost in 1986 dollars:
Estimated Cost (Year X) = [1986 $ Cost] x [A L, + B Ex + C Bx]
Where A, B, and C are the fractions of the total 1986 dollar costs that are attributable to labor (0.65), energy (0.13) and burial (0.22) respectively, and sum to 1. The factors Lx, Ex, and B, represent labor cost, energy cost, and burial/disposition cost adjustments from January 1986 to January of Year X (as indicated in Table 2.1 of NUREG-1 307).
The cost estimate that was developed for WSU for in 1989 was divided into five components:
- 1. disposal of radioactive wastes
- 2. labor
- 3. tools, equipment, and supplies
- 4. miscellaneous overhead (energy, fees, insurance, travel)
- 5. contingency Item 3, tools, equipment and supplies was provided as a scheduled rate of 10% of labor cost; Item 4 miscellaneous overhead (energy, fees, insurance, travel) is also assigned a Page 5 of 10
value of 10% of labor cost. For the purposes of the present estimate, labor, tools, equipment, and supplies will be lumped into a single category of labor, Lx, and Item 4, Miscellaneous Overhead will be treated as energy, Ex, cost.
NUREG-1 307 makes cost adjustments on the basis of January 1986 dollars, therefore the 1989 estimate is corrected to 1986 dollars, using inflation adjustors from the consumer price index for 1987, 1988, and 1989 (source: ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cpi/cpiai.txt).
The adjustments for waste disposal are illustrated in Table 3.a.3 Table 3.a.3 Adjustment of Waste Disposal Cost from 1989 to 1986 Dollars year Inflationary adjustment (a) Estimated waste disposal cost 1986 $495,582 1987 4.40% $517,388 1988 4.40% $540,153 1989 4.60% $565,000 (a) inflation rate taken from Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index Correcting waste disposal cost from 1986 to 2004 can be carried out by using waste disposal cost factors presented in Table 2.1 of NUREG-1 307 for PWR and BWR reactors with Direct Disposal by Vendors. The multiplier values for PWR and BWR disposal are 3.846 and 11.755, respectively. NUREG-1307 does not provide multiplier values for Research and Test Reactors (RTR), however the BWR waste disposal cost multiplication factor is considerably higher than for PWR, presumably due to the larger waste volumes associated with BWR vs. PWR. As a result, it seems more reasonable to use the PWR multipliers than BWR because the waste volume from an RTR would be smaller than for either a PWR or BWR. The cost range in 2004 dollars for Direct Disposal with Vendors is given by the expression (using the PWR multiplier):
3.846 x $495,582 = $1,906,008 Simply adjusting the 2004 disposal cost estimate to 2011 dollars (e.g. using the CPI) yields a waste disposal cost that is unrealistically low. Disposal costs have increased from 2004 to the present (2010). The 2010 cost schedule provided by U.S. Ecology Washington, Inc. for the Richland, Washington facility is included with this document as an attachment. The cost structure for waste disposal rates by U.S. Ecology is composed of four factors: (1) Volume, (2) Shipment, (3) Container, and (4) Exposure.
Table 3.a.4 Change In Waste Disposal Costs from 2004 to 2010 Volume (a) Shipment (b) Container (c)
Calendar year 2004 $56.6 $9,820 $4,930 Calendar year 2010 $130.6 $13,820 $9,210 Change +131% +41% +87%
(a) The Volume charge is in dollars per cubic foot.
(b) The Shipment charge is in dollars per manifested shipment.
(c) The Container charge is in dollars per container on each manifest.
The volume of waste to be disposed is not known at this time; therefore, using volume, shipment, and container rates to make a precise calculation is not justified. Using the Page 6 of 10
increase in the per-Container disposal rate increase (87%) as a median for the purposes of correcting disposal costs from 2004 to 2010, (which should capture a substantial fraction of the uncertainty in the number of shipments and the shipment volume due to the offsetting percent increases in these two cost contributors) a range for estimated disposal costs is given by:
$1,906,008 x 0.87 + $1,906,008 = $3,564,235 Due to the large change in waste disposal costs, the remainder of the cost estimating process will be conducted by applying Consumer Price Index and Labor Price Index incremental increases to the 1989 cost estimate, rather than forcing a solution to the cost estimate by stipulating that burial costs account for 22% of total decommissioning costs, as provided in NUREG-1 307. Using the 22% guideline to calculate the remainder of the cost contributors would lead to an estimated decommissioning cost of $16.2 million.
NUREG-1307 stipulates 1.984 as a regional cost adjustment factor for the Western U.S. for labor from a 1986 reference date to 2004. Using a total labor cost of $2,545,000 (including tools, equipment, and supplies), the correction, using the U.S. Social Security Administration Average Wage Index for 1989 to 1986 (http://www.ssa.qov/OACT/COLA/awidevelop.html) is illustrated in Table 3.a.5 Table 3.a.5 Inflationary Adjustment for Labor Cost From 1989 to 1986 Year Inflationary adjustment (a) Estimated waste disposal cost 1986 $2,193,117 1987 6.38% $2,333,038 1988 4.93% $2,448,057 1989 3.96% $2,545,000 Adjusting the 1'986 labor cost of'$2,193,117 to 2004 is given by

Correcting the 2004 energy cost to 2011 dollars is illustrated in Table 3.a.8 Table 3.a.8 Inflationary Adjustment from 2004 to 2011 Dollars year Inflationary adjustment (a) Estimated labor cost 2004 3.3 $300,484 2005 3.4 $310,400 2006 2.5 $320,953 2007 4.1 $328,977 2008 0.1 $342,465 2009 (b) 2.7 $342,807 20-10 (b) 2.6 $352,064 2011 (b) 2.6 $361,217 The individual cost components are summarized in Tables 3.a.9 and 3.a.10. Table 3.a.9 uses the correction factors for a- PWR reactor to estimate waste disposal cost. Table 3.a. 10 uses the correction factor for a BWR for waste disposal cost, but incorporates a $5,500,000 cap for disposal cost. Communication with U.S. Ecology Washington, Inc. of the Richland, Washington facility indicated that waste disposal cost would be capped at $5,500,000.

Response to RAI 3 Part (b)
The cost estimate that was provided by the Nuclear and Advanced Technology Division of the Westinghouse Electric Corp. was based on the DECON alternative for decommissioning.
Part (c)
Over time, the largest perturbation on the cost estimate has been an increase in the waste disposal costs. The annual periodic increase in the cost estimate when using the CPI has yielded cost estimate values for labor, energy, and materials that are reasonably similar to the method employed following NUREG-1307. Beginning in 2011, the values in Table 3.a.9 will be used for baseline planning for decommissioning cost estimate, with the values for labor and energy (with materials included in labor) indexed annually by the BLI published CPI or Social Security Administration AWl values. Waste disposal costs will be determined according to the standard published rates for waste disposal.

1 Activities and Manpower Requirements for DECON at a Research Reactor DECON is the decommissioning alternative that leads to the earliest termination of the owner's nuclear license. This alternative involves the immediate removal of all radioactive materials down to levels which are considered acceptable to permit the property to be released for unrestricted use. Planning and preparation activities, DECON activities, and the schedule and manpower requirements for DECON are presented below.
Planning and Preparation Activities Effective planning and preparation work before final reactor shutdown is vital to successful completion of DECON activities at the research reactor facility. Planning and preparation for DECON is accomplished during the 12 months prior to final reactor shutdown.
Planning and preparation activities include the following:
o satisfying regulatory requirements o gathering and analyzing data o developing detailed, work plans and.procedures o designing, procuri'ng, and' testi'ng- special" equipment o selecting and training staff o selecting specialty contractors o installing additional HEPA filters and temporary equipment These activities are discussed in the following paragraphs.
Satisfying Regulatory Requirements The major requirements are: 1) providing the necessary documentation for amending the facility operating license to "possession-only" status, and 2) obtaining an NRC dismantling order.
In requesting an amended license, the licensee must provide:
0 a description of the current facility status 9022M: lE-021489 l
'i 0 an inventory of the onsite radioactive materials 0 a description of the proposed decommissioning activities 0 a description of the proposed measures to prevent criticality and to minimize radioactive releases o any proposed changes to the technical specifications (e.g., deletion of specifications relating solely to plant operation) o safety analyses of both the proposed activities and the proposed specification changes.
An NRC dismantling order is required for DECON. The request for such an order must include a decommissioning plan providing:
o a description of the. ultimate. facility status o a description of the decommissioning activities (including radioactive material disposal and site decontamination) and the associated environmental. and. safety precautions o a safety analysis of the plan and any resultant releases o a safety analysis of the plant in its ultimate status.
In addition to the aforementioned documentation, the licensee must submit a radioactive waste handling plan, a quality assurance plan, an environmental report, and security and safeguards plans. Updated information concerning the financial qualification of the licensee may also be required.
Gathering and Analyzing Data. A large body of data is gathered and analyzed during the planning and preparation phase of decommissioning. This data helps satisfy the regulatory requirements discussed in the previous paragraphs, particularly the inventory of radioactive materials and the various safety analyses. In addition, they provide the bases for planning the decommissioning tasks and for selecting the appropriate methods and equipment.
9022Mv: lE-0214892 2
Included in this activity is a comprehensive survey of radiation dose rates and contamination levels in the facility. This survey, taken after final reactor shutdown, provides information for determining decontamination and temporary shielding requirements. It also provides initial data on radiation dose rates likely to be encountered during the various decommissioning tasks.
Developing Detailed Work Plans and Procedures. Detailed work plans and procedures are developed based on the information gathered during data gathering and resultant analyses and provided to the NRC with the license amendment and dismantling order requests. These detailed plans and procedures contain all the information required to actually carry out the decommissioning tasks.
They address the following items:
o decommissioning methods o schedules and sequences. of events radioactive waste management o contamination control o radiological and'industrial safety o equipment requirements.
Quality assurance, security, and'envi'ronmental constraints are also considered. The plans and procedures cover all aspects of the decommissioning project.
Designing, Procuring, and Testing Special Equipment. Any special equipment required to complete the decommissioning project is identified during planning and preparation. Designs and specifications are prepared for each item required. When the item is procured, it is inspected to verify that it meets specifications and complies with applicable QA and safety requirements. It is then tested to ensure that it performs as required. The testing also serves to train personnel in the use of the equipment and to provide pertinent data on its operation.
Selecting and Training Staff. At the start of planning and preparation, a decommissioning organization is created for the facility. Staff requirements are identified, and critical positions are filled with key engineering and 9022M: l E-021489 3
operating personnel. The personnel are trained as required to fulfill their roles in the organization; special emphasis is given to the use of new and unique equipment and procedures. Organization of the decommissioning staff is discussed in detail later in this section.
Selecting Specialty Contractors. During planning and preparation, the decommissioning planning staff identifies and selects the specialty contractors required to decommission the facility. These contractors perform unique services outside of the expertise or capability of the staff. After the needs are identified, contractors are invited to bid on the required work packages. Contractual agreements are concluded prior to the start of the actual decommissioning, if possible, to ensure the uninterrupted completion of the project. Specialty contractor requirements are also discussed later in this section.
Installing Additional HEPA Filters. Prior to the start of the actual decommissioning tasks, HEPA filters are installed outboard of the blower in the HVAC exhaust system of t h~e ReactorB' 'uillding-. Thes'e- fi'iters 're-i'ns'ta4lled to lessen the atmospheric release of airborne radioactivity generated during DECON, because many of the tasks are expected to generate airborne contamination that exceeds that produced duri'ng normal plant operation.
Additional temporary equipment may be7 i' stal'l'ed at this time to preclude the spread of contamination.
DECON Activities The activities and requirements of DECON for the research reactor are discussed in this section, including decontamination, disassembly and disposal, quality assurance, environmental surveillance, specialty contractors, and essential systems and services.
Decontamination. Decontamination is necessary to remove the radioactive contamination from selected systems and components. The objectives of the decontamination effort are twofold: first, to reduce the radiation levels throughout the facility in order to minimize personnel exposure during disassembly; and second, to attempt to clean as much material as possible to 9022M: 1E-021489 4
unrestricted levels, thereby permitting salvage of valuable material and reducing the quantities of material that must be packaged and shipped to a disposal site.
Disassembly and Disposal. Disassembly of the research reactor is started after the reactor is defueled, systems and components are decontaminated, and temporary shielding is installed where a comprehensive radiation survey indicates the need.
The exact component removal sequence within a given system or locality is dictated by the component's accessibility and the anticipated personnel exposures during removal. When possible, items that contribute significantly to the general level of exposure in the work area are either removed first or are temporarily shielded while the work goes on. Systems are unbolted at flanges when possible and cut into manageable sections, using an appropriate cutting device (plasma-arc torch, oxyacetylene torch, or power hacksaw).
Piping is cut into lengths compatible with standard shipping boxes.
Similarly, tanks and poo.1: lifners are- cut' into plate segments appropri*-t'efy sized.
Packaging of radioactive materials, for disposal, i~s accompl'ished in accordance with DOT and NRC regulations. Containers are lined with shi'el'ding materi-al when necessary to reduce surface dose rates to acceptable levels. Some items, such as a heat exchanger, may have openings welded shut and be shipped using the outer shell of the exchanger as the container.
Shipping of packaged contaminated materials from the facility to a waste burial site is accomplished using a trucking company that specializes in transporting special materials. The volume of materials to be transported and the number of shipments required are estimated in table 2 and was taken from the "Final Report Decommissioning of the Ames Laboratory Research Reactor, January 1982."
The reactor is postulated to be removed with as little as possible remote cutting.. Remote cutting will be used to disconnect certain components and to cut components into manageable and shipable sizes.
9022M:IE-021489 5
Small contaminated equipment is removed and packed in standard shipping boxes. Large contaminated equipment having no external smearable contamination is sealed by welding steel plates over all openings. Such equipment is then shipped to a burial ground, using the outer shell as the packaging. Contaminated equipment that is too large to be shipped as a unit is cut up either into segments that will fit into standard shipping boxes or into segments that can be sealed with welded steel plates.
Contaminated concrete is removed using a concrete spallers, jack hammers and concrete cutting equipment. All contaminated or neutron-activated concrete is removed. Core boring and sampling is performed to determine the extent of concrete removal. The rubble is packaged in standard shipping boxes for disposal.
Quality Assurance. An extensive quality assurance program is carried on throughout the decommissioning effort to assure that all applicable regulations are met, to assure that the work is performed according to plan, to assure that the work dbe'snrfodt efdng'er pub*lic safety,, and: to a*ssure the-safety of the decommissioning staff.
During the 12-month period prior to shutdown, QA personnel are active in the following areas:
0 reviewing decommissioning plans for quality assurance involvement o preparing inspection/test procedures as work plans are developed o reviewing designs of test equipment for quality input o ordering any inspection/test equipment required to perform the quality assurance/quality control function o receiving procured equipment and verifying acceptance o qualifying suppliers for fabrication of radioactive shipping containers 9022M: l E-021489 6
o preparing inspection/test procedures to be imposed on contractors o preparing inspection plans for shipment of radioactive materials, containers, trucks, etc.
o finalizing the formal quality assurance plan.
The QA efforts during the actual DECON period include the following:

An abbreviated version of the environmental monitoring program carried on during plant operation is continued during the DECON period. The purpose of the program is to identify and quantify any releases of radioactivity to the surrounding areas resulting from the DECON activities. For emergency situations involving releases from events such as fires or malicious acts that may necessitate prompt emergency action to minimize the risk to the public, additional short-term surveillance efforts are required.
9022M:lE-021489 7
After DECON is complete, a reduced 1-year follow-up program of environmental monitoring is carried out by the same organization that performed the earlier program.
Specialty Contractors. The only specialty contractor requirement during DECON of the research reactor is limited in scope to a hauling contractor, for transport of packaged radioactive materials to a disposal site. An estimated amount of waste shipments and disposal costs are shown in table 2 and was taken from the "Final Report Decommissioning of the Ames Laboratory Research Reactor, January 1982". If following DECON the facility is demolished, landscaping contractors are also required.
Essential Systems and Services. All or parts of certain facility systems and services must remain in place and in service until all radioactive material is either removed from the facility or secured on the site, to prevent the release of significant quantities of radionuclides (or other hazardous materials) to the environment. Some systems and services are required for cleanup and disassembly acfivifivts-. O.tiieig' r6vipd'ep-s-rnh-l heaTthýanfd.,
safety protection. The required systems and services are li~sted' in Table 1 together with the justification for retaining each.
As di smantl ement and decontamitnatibon' are, compietred iln, a&reas, wi thin. the facility, the essential systems and services in these areas are deactivated and, if contaminated, removed as required. Continuous service to the remaining work areas is maintained as long as necessary.
DECON Schedule The schedule and sequence of DECON tasks is shown in Figure 1. Initial planning for DECON of the research reactor facility begins about 12 months before final shutdown of the reactor.
After final shutdown, the reactor is defueled, and the spent fuel is shipped to an offsite repository. A logical pattern for cleanup, decontamination, dismantlement, packaging, and shipment is followed with the tasks associated with the research reactor. DECON at the research reactor is completed in approximately 8 months.
9022M:lE-021489 8
DECON Staff Requirements and DECON Costs In this section, the DECON costs, the organization of the decommissioning staff and the types and numbers of decommissioning workers needed for DECON are discussed.
Cost of DECON The estimated cost of DECON for the research reactor, including a 15%
contingency is summarized in Table 4.
Organization of the Decommissioning Staff. The decommissioning staff for the research reactor is organized as shown in Figure 2 with a manloading shown in Table 3. Ultimate responsibility for decommissioning activities rests with the university administration (the licensee). It is postulated that, for decommissioning of the reference research reactor, two staff committees oversee the operations and safety tasks. The operations branch, under a decommissioning superintendent;- pOlf*ns'hand'p1erff6r-s thedeFc'ommissrioning, activities while overseeing financial, security, and safety functions. The safety branch, under a health physicist, plans and conducts radiological and industrial safety programs. As shown. in Figure 2, the quality assurance supervisor interacts with both- the opera-tri*ons, and safety personnel while reporting to the staff committees, but he is directly responsible to the university administration.
DECON tasks, with few exceptions, are performed on a single 8-hour shift, five days per week. Each task presented in Figure 2 is postulated based on a crew size that provides a reasonably constant manpower loading for the bulk of the decommissioning project.
The crew on the basic working unit includes a crew leader, a utility operator, laborers, and the necessary craftsmen and health physics technicians. To the extent possible, decommissioning staff positions are filled with facility operations and maintenance personnel already familiar with the research reactor. In this way, effective and efficient task performance is obtained.
9022M:lE-021489 9
Use is made of student labor where knowledgeable personnel are available. The specific crew makeup for a given decommissioning task is tailored to fit the need.
The personnel interactions, activities, and responsibilities of key staff members are described below.
Reactor Administration and Operations Committee This committee advises university administration on matters under its jurisdiction. Its main function is to provide overall planning and direction to the decommissioning superintendent and financial branch while interacting with the other facets of the organization.

Message from the President I am delighted to share Washington State University's annual report on the 2008 fiscal year with you. This publication provides in-depth information about the fiscal health and operations of WSU during the period beginning July 1, 2607 and concluding June 30, 2008.
The new five-year Strategic Plan adopted by the Board of Regents in 2008 guides the University in its continuing quest to serve students, the citizens of Washington and the greater world. WSU fulfills its distinctive role as the state's land-grant research university through exceptional teaching and research, combined with relevant outreach and engagement.
This report reflects another remarkable year of achievement in all three areas. Among the highlights:
" The University established a School for Global Animal Health in its College of Veterinary Medicine to provide innovative solutions to global infectious diseases through research, education, global outreach and application of disease control at the animal-human interface. A $25 million grant from the Bill & Melinda'Gates Foundation will help construct the-school's $35 million research building. Veterinary pathologist Dr. Guy-Palmer, a member of the'National Academy of Science's Institute of Medicine, is the school's director.
" An internationally recognized microbiologist, Dr.. Birgitte Ahring, joined the University as director of the Center for Bioproducts and Bioenergy and as the Battelle Distinguished Professor, based at WSU Tri-Cities. Much of the Center's research occurs at the Bioproducts, Sciences, and Engineering Laboratory, a $24.8 million facility opened in spring 2008 at the Tri-Cities campus. BSEL is a partnership of WSU and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, operated by Battelle for the U.S. Department of Energy.
- The University embarked on a 10-year, $200 million plan to meet the living needs of this generation of incoming students and the next. We broke ground in May for the first new residence hall to be built on the Pullman campus since 1971, with completion scheduled. by fall of 2009.
- Enrollment figures showed increased student numbers at all WSU campuses, a record influx of freshmen and higher numbers of minority students. The growth was driven by thefirst class of freshmen at WSU Tri-Cities, continued strong freshman. enrollment at WSU Vancouver and the largest freshman class ever at the Pullman campus. Academic qualifications continued to increase as well. "
- Research and philanthropic funding both increased substantially during the 2008 fiscal year. Faculty members received nearly $156 million in new research grant awards, an increase of some 16 percent. Private support rose substantially with.
a record $143,692,185 in gifts, grants, pledges and revocable commitments, a 56 percent increase.
- Construction continued on influential new or remodeled buildings including the College of Nursing building on the Riverpoint campus in Spokane, the Compton Union Building and Biotechnology Life Sciences Building in Pullman, and the Undergraduate Classroom Building at WSU Vancouver.
Washington State University is dedicated to its mission as a leading land-grant research university, advancing knowledge through creative research and scholarship, extending knowledge through innovative educational programs and applying knowledge through local and global engagement. I invite you to learn more about the ways in which the University contributes to a bright future for the state's residents.
Sincerely, Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D.

Management's Discussion and Analysis Management's Discussion and Analysis Introduction The following discussion and analysis provides an overview of the financial position and operations of Washington State University (the University) for the year ended June 30, 2008. This overview has been prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the University's financial statements and accompanying notes.
Founded in Pullman in 1890 as the state's land-grant research university, Washington State University today has campuses in Pullman, Spokane, Tri-Cities and Vancouver. Ten regional learning centers and award-winning Distance Degree Programs offer access to the University's degrees statewide and around the world. Enrollment exceeds 25,000 students who are served by over 2,400 faculty and 3,600 staff members. Among the University's faculty are eight members of the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering.
Considered one of the country's top public research universities, the University has ten academic.icolleges, an Honors College and the Graduate School. The colleges- include: Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences; Business; Education; Engineering and Architecture; Liberal Arts; Nursing; Pharmacy; Sciences; Veterinary Medicine; and the new Edward R. Murrow College of Communication. The University offers more than 250 fields of study including more than 150 majors plus many minors, options and certificate programs. Bachelor's degrees are available in all major areas with master's and doctoral degrees available in most. Professional degrees are offered in pharmacy and veterinary medicine. Last year, over 5,900 degrees, including bachelor's;' master's,.professiohal and doctoral degrees, were corifer'-ed.
The University is known for research strengths in such diverse areas as biotechnology, reproductive biology, shockphysics, viticulture, sleep research, wood technology, computer chips and advertising's impact on healthy decision-making. Research stations are located in Lind, Long Beach, Mount Vernon, Othello, Prosser, Puyallup and Wenatchee. There are extension offices in all 39 Washington counties.
Using the Financial Statements The.financial statements presented in this report encompass the University and its discretely presented component units.
The Management's Discussion and Analysis, however, focuses only on the University: The University's financial reports include the Statement of Net Assets, the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets, and the Statement of Cash Flows. These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) principles and focus on the University as a whole.
Financial Highlights Overall, the University's financial position improved during the year ended June 30, 2008:
" Assets increased by $104 million to end the year at $1.9 billion.
" Liabilities increased by $32 million to end the year at $435 million.
" Net assets, which represent the residual of assets after deducting liabilities, increased by $72 million to end the year at $1.4 billion.
Other significant changes to operations were as follows:
" Revenues from all sources totaled $900 million, an increase of $57 million over fiscal year 2007.
- Expenses totaled $828 million, an increase of $85 million over last year.
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $111 million.
2008 Finandal Report
Management's Discussion and Analysis Condensed Financial Information and Analysis FinancialPosition-Statementof Net Assets The Statement of Net Assets is a snapshot ofithe University's financial position at fiscal year end. It lists the University's assets (economic resources), liabilities (creditors' claims) and net assets (residual interest in assets after paying creditors) based on end-of-year data.
Assets are: classified as current, non-current or capital. Current assets are expected to benefit the University within 12 months and include cash, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses and investments that can easily be converted into cash to meet University expenses. Non-current assets include endowment fund assets, student loans receivable and investments expected to be held more than one year. Capital assets include construction in-progress, library materials, furniture and equipment, land, buildings and improvements and are reported net of accumulated depreciation.
Liabilities are classified as current or non-current. Current liabilities are claims that are due and payable within 12 months and include payroll and:benefits, amounts payable to suppliers for goods and services receivedand debt principal payments due within one year. Non-current liabilities are obligations payable beyond ore year and include bond obligations, installment contracts, leases and earned but unused vacation and sick'leave.
Net assets are divided into five categories:
° Invested In capital assets--net of related debt: represents the University's capital assets net of accumulated depreciation and outstanding principal balances of debt attributable to the acquisition, construction or impr6pemeht of those assets.
" Restricted-non expendable net assets: University endowment funds, Land Grant Endowment funds and similar funds for which cdonors or outside sources have stipulated as a condition of the gift that the principal be maintained in perpetuity.
" Restricted-loans: funds that have been established for the explicit purpose of providing student support as prescribed by statute or granting authority.
- Restricted-expendable net assets: funds that are subject to externally imposed restrictions governing their use, such as scholarships, fellowships, research, loans, pr6fe'ssorships, cap'ital frojects and debt service.
° Unrestricted net assets: represents those assets that are available to the University for any lawful purpose.

Significant Changes in the Statements of Net Assets
" Current assets decreased by $41 million. Several bond funded construction projects were completed or were very close to completion during the year and invested bond proceeds were liquidated and spent on the construction costs, resulting in a decrease of $49 million in cash and investments. In addition, accounts receivable increased by $9 million of which $8 million were construction costs paid on state funded projects that had not been reimbursed by the state at June 30.
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $ 111 million. This increase reflects continued large capital projects underway across campus to. build new facilities and renovate others. Additions to construction in progress and buildings were $96 million, net of depreciation. Land increased by $9 million.
" Current liabilities increased by $9 million. $8 million was accrued construction costs payable at year-end. In addition, deferred revenues were up by $2 million, reflecting increased revenues for the Alive program and increased season ticket sales for Athletics. Other short term liabilities decreased by $1 million.
" Non-current liabilities increased by $22 million.reflecting $26 million of new revenue bonds issued to. finance the construction of a new residence hall, net of principal. reductions of $8 million. In addition, accrued leave, deferred compensation and pension liabilities increased by $4 million. . *... ..
° Net assets increased by $72 million.
Financial Health and Flexibility There are a number of ratios used by the debt rating agencies to gauge financial health and flexibility. One of the more significant ratios used to measure operating flexibility is the ratio of expendable net assets to total expenses. Expendable net assets (defined as restricted expendable net assets plus unrestricted net assets) can be accessed relatively quickly and spent to satisfy current obligations. This ratio indicates how long the University could function using its expendable reserves without relying on additional assets generated by operations. The University had sufficient expendable net assets in 2008 to cover 4.5 months of operations, unchanged from 2007. .
Another between popular 0.4 timesratio, used to 1.2 to measure times would bedebt cushion,, is the ratio of expendable net assets (as-defined above) to debt. A ratio considered good coverage by one of the major rating agencies. The University's debt cushion remained constant at 0.9 times in 2008 and 2007.
Results of Operations-Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets is 'the University's equivalent of an income statement. It shows the sources and amounts of revenues earned and nature and amount of expenses incurred during the year, classified as operating, non-operating or other.
Operating revenues are the inflows of funds from providing goods and services to the University's customers. They include tuition and fees, grant and contract payments, and sales and service revenue generated by student housing, student dining and other University enterprises. Operating expenses are the funds used in generating operating revenues and in carrying out the University's mission.
Non-operating revenues are revenues earned for which goods and services are not provided and include state appropriations, current-use gifts and grants that are designated for purposes other than capital construction, land grant endowment income, endowment distributions and investment income. Non-operating expenses include interest expense on long-term debt.
Other revenues and expenses include capital appropriations, capital gifts or grants, additions to permanentendowments and gains or losses on the disposal of capital assets.

increase in enrollment. Increased sales by the colleges of Veterinary Medicine and Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences contributed to a $2 million increase in sales and services by educational departments. Rate and enrollment increases caused auxiliary enterprise revenues to go up by $7 million. Increases in federal and local grants accounted for the remainder of the increases.
Operating expenses increased by $82 million. The largest increases were in salaries and benefits expenses. Salaries were up by
$28 million. The state authorized a 4% pay increase in 2008. Benefit costs increased by $16 million as a result of a 14% increase in health care premiums, more temporary employees qualifying for health care benefits, and increases in the rates for PERS retirement contributions. Payments for goods and services increased by $15 million, primarily as a result of increased energy costs. Depreciation expense increased by $7 million for the current year as a result of a change in accounting principle and by
$7 million as a result of the cumulative effect of the change.
Net non-operating revenues increased by $33 million. Gifts and contributions were up by $7 million as the Washington State University Foundation geared up for a new capital campaign. State and federal appropriations increased $26 million.
Investment income increased by $9 million. These increases were offset by increased interest expense on bond debt of $3 million and a decrease in.other non-operating revenue of $6 million.
Other revenues decreased by $6 million. State capital appropriations decreased by $13 million as the capital projects funded by them were completed. Capital grants and gifts increased by $7 million, which included a $4 million gift of land received in 2008.

As the above graphs show, the University has a diversified revenue base. No single source of revenue generated more than 27% of the total fiscal year revenues for 2008 and 2007. State operating appropriations were S245 million, comprising 27% of total revenue for 2008. The University relies on this state funding which subsidizes its instructional activities allowing for lower tuition rates.
Grants and contracts generated $190 million or 21% of total revenue. These funds support the University's research activities which allow students to work with nationally recognized faculty as part of their educational experience.
Income from gifts, capital grants and contributions totaled $34 million (4% of total revenue). This was an increase of
$14 million over 2007. This was a result of the new fund-raising campaign underway by the Washington State University Foundation. These funds support all types of University activities and generate millions of dollars for student scholarships.
Auxiliary enterprises generated $95 million in revenues, representing 11% of the total revenue. This was an increase of 1% over 2007 or $7 million. Auxiliary enterprises are essential supporting activities, such as university residences, intercollegiate athletics, and the student union.

The above graphs demonstrate that while 2008 expenditures have increased over 2007, they have done so evenly across programs. The increases have been largely due to campus-wide cost increases. Salaries and benefits increased as a result of state mandated increases in wage rates and health care premiums. In addition, energy cost increases affected the entire university.
(Note: For the purposes of these graphs, depreciation has been allocated to the programs.)
Capital Assets and Long-Term Debt Activities Capital Assets At June 30, 2008, the University had $1,143,409,332 invested in capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation.
This represents an increase of $111,201,282, or 10.8%, over last year, as shown in the table below:

Economic Outlook The State of Washington's general fund revenue collection forecasts for the 2007-09 biennium have been adjusted downward significantly from initial forecasts at the start of the biennium. Revenue projections have been reduced in each quarter beginning with November 2007. While the University's state operating budget for fiscal year 2008 remained intact without suffering any reductions, the University is expecting operating budget reductions during fiscal year 2009. The reduction amount expected to be proposed by the governor, based on December 2008 data, is $10.5 million. Additional reductions are a possibility ifWashington's revenue forecasts continue to decline during 2009. Also, due to revenue forecast reductions for the upcoming 2009-11 biennium, the University expects significant state operating budget reductions for the nextbiennium. The amount of the reductions will not be known until the Washington Legislature adopts its 2009-11 biennium budget during the 2009 legislative session.
State appropriations for operations will continue to be a significant portion of the University's financial support in fiscal year 2009. The appropriation for operations, as of December 2008, is $253.8 million and reflects an'increase of $4.2 million from fiscal year 2008 (a 1.6% increase). If the $1 0.5 million expected reduction is enacted by the Legislature in 2009, the fiscal year 2009 appropriation will be 97.4% of the fiscal year 2008 appropriation. Capital appropriations are approved for a two-year period and the appropriations for the 2007-09 biennia were $219.9 million. Federal appropriations for the University's land.
grant programs are expected to remain near a $9.0 million funding level;..
As in prior years, student tuition and fees will be increased, with a portion of the incremental revenue used for'financial aid.
Tuition rates will be increased by 7% for resident and non-resident students for all progr~ams'except Pharm acyl which will be raised 10%. Enrollment is expected to be 4.9 % higher than 2008, at.23,425 annual average full time equivalents for the four-campus system. Overall, the University expects net tuition and fee revenues to provide $168.5 million to support operations, an 8.2% increase over 2008.
Federal sponsored research and other programs are the largest portionof externally funded grant expenditures. Federal.
funding supported 66.9% of University projects, and 33:1% were supported by non-federal funding in 2008. Research project expenditures were nearly flat between 2008 and 2007, whereas non-research project expenditures significantly increased by almost 11%. Federal non-research programs and non-federal sponsored programs, both research and non-research, have grown in recent years, offsetting the slow-down in federal sponsored research programs. Growth in overal! sponsored-projects for the past two years has been near 4% and the growth was associated.primarily With non-research sponsored projects. This trend is expected to continue in fiscal year 2009, although non-federal research has been growing during this fiscal year. The longer-term outlook is more uncertain due to possible federal funding constraints and deficits and the economic conditions nation-wide, which could constrain both federal and non-federal project activities.
Private gift support is expected to continue to grow, with a target of $100 million during fiscal year 2008, which is a 25%
increase over last year's goal. The University is working closely with the WSU Foundation in the planning stages of a major fund-raising campaign.
Washington State Auditor Brian Sonntag INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT January 8, 2009 Board of Regents Washington State University Pullman, Washington We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the business-type activities and the discretely presented component unit of Washington State University as of and for the year ended June 30, 2008, which collectively comprise the University's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the University's management. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Washington State University Foundation. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Washington State University Foundation, is based on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audit-in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 supporting 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 audit and the report of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements of Washington State University are intended to present the financial position, and the changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows of only that portion of the business-type activities of the state of Washington that.is attributable to the transactions of the University. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the state of Washington as of June 30, 2008, the changes in its financial position, or, where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business-type activities and the discretely presented component unit of Washington State University, as of June 30, 2008, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The management's discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 11 is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the University's basic financial statements. The accompanying information listed as supplemental information on page 33 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. This information has been subjected to auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The University opened its doors January 13, 1892, on land donated by the citizens of Pullman. Today, Washington State University has campuses in Pullman, Spokane, the Tri-Cities and Vanc'ouver, with extension offices and learning centers across the state. The University's 25,352 undergraduate, graduate and professional students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with internationally acclaimed professors and researchers. The primary missions of the University are instruction, research and public service.
Reporting Entity The financial reporting entity is Washington State University and the WSU Foundation as a discretely reported component unit.
Component Unit The WSU Foundation ("the Foundation") is a legally separate, tax-exempt entity, and serves contractual asset management functions in support of the University's mission. The Foundation is a significant component unit based on the criteria of GASB Statement 39.
This report presents the Foundation's financial condition and activities as a discretely presented separate component unit-in the University's financial statements.
The Foundation reports its financial results in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and guidance.
As such, certain revenue recognition criteria and presentation features are different from GASB. No modifications have been made to the' Foundation's financial information in the University's financial statements for these differences. The Foundation presents information about its financial position and activities according to the following three classes of net assets, depending on the existence and nature of donor restrictions.
Under FASB, the Foundation's net assets are described as follows:
- Unrestricted net assets-Support received that is not subject to donor-imposed restrictions and over which the Board of Directors has discretionary control.
- Temporarily restricted net assets-Support received subject to donor-imposed use restrictions or time restrictions.
- Permanently restricted net assets-Support received subject to donor-imposed restrictions stipulating that funds be invested in perpetuity.
For presentation purposes, in the University's financial statements, temporarily restricted net assets have been shown as expendable net assets and permanently restricted net assets have been shown as nonexpendable net assets.
The Foundation's financial statements can be acquired at the following address:

Current use gift funds are segmented into short-term, intermediate-term and long-term pools. University policies limit the portfolio average maturity of the short-term pool to one year or less, the portfolio average maturity of the intermediate-term pool to three years or less and the portfolio average maturity of the long-term pool to ten years or less.
University endowments fall under the Foundation investment policy, which employs broad asset class diversification to ýcontrol overall endowment fund volatility, and limits fixed income investments to a maximum of 15% of total endowment fund assets.
Concentration of Credit Risk-investments State law limits University operating investments to the highest quality sectors of the domestic fixed income market and specifically excludes corporate stocks, corporate and foreign bonds, futures contracts, commodities, real estate, limited partnerships and negotiable certificates of deposit. University policy does not limit the amount the University may invest in any one issuer.
Custodial Credit Risk-Investments Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the University will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. At June 30, 2008, $146,048,882 of the University's operating fund investments, held by Bank of New York Mellon in the bank's name as agent for the University, and $166,814 of endowment assets, held in street name by E*trade for the account of the University, are exposed to custodial credit risk as described in Table 4.

Pension Plans The University offers two contributory pension plans: the Washington State Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) plan, a defined benefit retirement system, and the Washington State University Retirement Plan, consisting of a defined contribution plan modified with a supplemental payment plan, when required.

The payroll for employees covered by PERS was $117,616,162 and the payroll for employees covered by the Washington StateUniversity Retirement Plan was $219,925,855.
Public Employees Retirement'System Plan Description. PERS is a multi-employer mandatory retirement plan for all eligible civil service employees. Employees hired into an eligible position prior to October 1, 1977, are enrolled in Plan 1 while employees hired into an eligible position on or after October 1, 1977 are enrolled in Plans 2 or 3. Retirement benefits are vested after five years of eligible service. Plan 3 has a defined contribution component that members may elect to self-direct as established by the Employee Retirement Benefits Board. The authority to establish and amend benefit provisions resides with the legislature. The Washington State Public Employees Retirement System issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for PERS. The report may be obtained by writing to the Department of Retirement Systems, PO Box 48380, Olympia, Washington 98504-8380.
Funding Policy. The Office of the State Actuary, using funding methods prescribed by statute, determines actuarially required contribution rates for PERS. The basic contribution rates, established by the legislature, match the actuarially determined rates considered necessary to fully fund the tier one system by June 30, 2024 and to continue to fully fund the tier two systems. Plan I members are required to contribute 6% of their annual covered salary. Contributions for Plan 2 members are determined by the aggregate method and ray vary over time. The contribution rate for Plan 2 employees at June 30, 2008 was 4.15%. The contribution rate for the University at June 30, 2008 for all PERS plans was 6.1 3%.
The summary of rates for the year are as follows:
Employee University Plan 1 6.00% 6.13%
Plan 2 4.15% 6.13%
Plan 3 5% to 15% 6.13% "
Employee and employer contributions for the year ended June 30, 2008, were $4,561,676 and $5,775,034 respectively.
The pension benefit obligation is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value of pension benefits, estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The pension benefit obligation as of 2004 for PERS as a whole, determined through an actuarial valuation performed as of that date, was $20,686,000,000. The PERS net assets available for benefits on that date (valued at market) were
$19,905,000,000 leaving an unfunded pension benefit obligation of $781,000,000. Information for WSU as a stand-alone entity is not available.

Washington State University
Washington State University Retirement Plan Plan Description. Faculty, professional and other staff are eligible to participate in the Washington State University Retirement Plan (WSURP).
The Teacher's Insurance and Annuity Association (TIAA) and the College Retirement Equities Fund (CREF) are the companion organizations through which individual retirement annuities are purchased. Employees have at all times a 100% vested interest in their accumulations.
TIAA-CREF benefits are payable upon termination at the member's option unless the participant is re-employed in another institution which participates in TIAA-CREF.
The plan has a supplemental payment component that guarantees a minimum retirement benefit goal based upon a one-Lime calculation at each employee's retirement date. The University makes direct payments to qualifying retirees when the retirement benefitprovided by TIAA-CREF does not meet the benefit goal. Employees are eligible for a non-reduced supplemental payment after the age of 65 with ten years of full-time service.
The minimum retirement benefit goal is 2% of the average annual salary for each year of full-time service up to a maximum of 25 years. However, if the participant does not elect to make the 10% TIAA-CREF contribution after age 50, the benefit goal is 1.5% for-each year of full-time service for those years the lower contribution rate is selected.
No significant changes were made in the benefit provisions for the year.
Contributions. Contribution rates for~the WSURP (TIAA-CREF), which are based upon age,.,are 5%, 7.5% or 10% of salary and are matched by the University. Employee and employer contributions for the year ended June 30, 2008 were each $18;271,572. .
The Washington State University Retirement Plan (supplemental payment) is financed on a pay-as-you-go basis. Supplemental payments made by the University for the year ended June 30, 2008 were $691,643.
At the latest valuation July 1, 2007, the total unfunded pension benefit obligation under the Washington State University Retirement Plan (supplemental payment plan) was $9.6 million, consisting of $4.8 million~for retirees and beneficiaries currently receiving benefits and $4.8 million for current employees..- . . * ... . * . * --

- 19. Contingent Liabilities There is a class action lawsuit filed against the state of Washington on behalf of certain employees alleging improper denial of healthcare benefits. Although WSU has not been named as a defendant in the lawsuit, some of the class members are current or former employees of WSU.
Accordingly, it is possible that the state could assess the University with a material share of any amount paid in the event of a settlement or judgment. Due to the status of the lawsuit, the impact upon WSU cannot be assessed with reasonable certainty at present.

I.
Message from the President It is an honor for me to share with you Washington State University's annual report for the 2009 fiscal year. This publication provides in-depth information about the fiscal health and operations of WSU during the period beginning on July 1, 2008, and concluding on June 30, 2009.
The year provided many indicators of substantial institutional strength. Some of the highlights include:
- Gene and Linda Voiland donated an unprecedented $1 7.5 million-to the School of Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering to advance research and to hire faculty in the areas of renewable fuels and sustainable energy. Yong Wang, an internationally known researcher in catalysis and biorenewable energy, joins the WSU faculty as the first Voiland Distinguished Professor.
Demand for a WSU education remained: high. Record enrollment figures showed increased student numbers at all-WSU campuses, a record influx of freshmen, and higher numbers of minority students, Enrollment increased 3.9 percent statewide, from 24,396 in fall 2007 to 25,352 in fall 2008..
To recognize high academic achievement, the WSU Office of Admissions announced that Washington students who rank in the'top ten percent of their high school class or who have at least a 3.5 GPA at the time of application would be assured admission.
WSU graduate student numbers continued to climb for fall 2008, with 3,396 graduate students, up two percent. The
.increase was primarily on the Pullman and Spokane campuses.
WSU Distance Degree Programs experienced a 22percent'increase in online students in fall 2008, following an average five percent annual increase over the previous six years. The prbgram, one of the nation's most successful, enhances our ability to ensure student access to a quality WSU education.
- Washington State University completed its extensive self-review for renewed accreditation, which was received in positive fashion from the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities.............:-. . -
° The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching classifies WSU in the elite group of Research Universities with Very High Research Activity. In December 2008, this Foundation awarded WSU its Community Engagement Classification in the dual categories of curricular engagement and outreach and partnerships.
- In September 2008, the extensively renovated Compton Union Building opened, while construction proceeded apace on our Olympia Avenue residence hall; the first to be built on the Pullman campus since 1971.
- We are building for the future statewide with a new $34 million Nursing Building at WSU Spokane, a new $28 million Undergraduate Classroom building at WSU Vancouver, and $72 million Biotechnology/Life Sciences Building on the Pullman campus. Additional important facilities are on the drawing board.
Toward the end of the 2009 fiscal year, WSU was asked by the state to cut its budget and return $10.5 million which had been previously allocated to the University. This reduction was part of a statewide action to address declining state revenues.
Despite this financial challenge, Washington State University remains dedicated to its mission as a leading land-grant research university to advance knowledge through creative. research and scholarship, extend knowledge through innovative education, and apply knowledge through local and global engagement. Through our research and-scholarly endeavors, WSU enhances.
the lives of people around the globe and contributes to the economic and academic vitality of the state, nation, and world.
Sincerely, Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D.

Management's Discussion and Analysis Management's Discussion and Analysis Introduction The following discussion and analysis provides an overview of the financial position and operations of Washington State University (the University) for the year ended June 30, 2009. This overview has been prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the University's financial statements and accompanying notes.
Founded in Pullman in 1890 as the state's land-grant research university, Washington State University today has campuses in Pullman, Spokane, Tri-Cities and Vancouver. Ten regional learning centers and award-winning Distance Degree Programs offer access to the University's degrees statewide and around the world. Enrollment exceeds 25,300 students who are served by over 2,300 faculty and 3,600.staff members. Among the University's faculty are nine members of the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine.
Considered one of the country's top public'research universities, the University has ten academic colleges, an Honors College and the-Graduate School. The colleges include: Agricultural, Human, and-Natural Resource Sciences; Business; Communications; Education; Engineering and Architecture; Liberal Arts; Nursing; Pharmacy; Sciences; and Veterinary Medicine.
The University offers more than 250 fields of study including more than 150 majors plus many minors, options and certificate programs. Bachelor's degrees are available in all major areas with master's and doctoral degrees available in most. Professional degrees are offered in Pharmacy and Veterinary Medicine. Last year, 6,004 degrees, including bachelor's, master's, professional and doctoral degrees, were conferred.
The University is known for research strengths in such diverse areas as biotechnology, reproductive biology, shock physics, viticulture, sleep research, wood technology, computer chips and advertising's impact on healthy decision-making. Research stations are located in Lind, Long Beach, Mount Vernon, Othello,, Prosser, Puyallup, and Wenatchee. There are extension offices in all 39 Washington counties.
Using the Financial Statements The financial statements presented* in this report encompass the University and its discretely presented component units. The management's discussion and analysis, however, focuses only on the University. The University's financial reports include the Statement of Net Assets, the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets, and the Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements which establish standards for external financial reporting for public colleges and universities. GASB standards require that financial statements be presented to focus on the University as a whole.
Financial Highlights Overall, the University's financial position improved during the year ended June 30, 2009:
" Assets increased by $66 million to end the year at $1.94 billion.
- Liabilities decreased by $4.5 million to end the year at $430 million.
" Net assets, which represent the residual of assets after deducting liabilities, increased by $71 million to end the year at
$1.5 billion.
Other significant changes to operations were as follows:
- Revenues from all sources totaled $906 million, an increase of $6.2 million over fiscal year 2008.
" Expenses totaled $835 million, an increase of $7.1 million over last year.
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $99 million.
2009 Finandal-Retxrt
Management's Discussion and Analysis Condensed Financial Information and Analysis FinancialPosition-Statementof Net Assets The Statement of Net Assets is a snapshot of the University's financial position at fiscal year end. It lists the University's assets (economic resources), liabilities (creditors' claims) and net assets (residual interest in assets after paying creditors) based on end-of-year data.
Assets are classified as current, non-current or capital. Current assets are expected to, benefit the' University within 12 months and include cash, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses and investments that can easily be co'nverted into cash to meet University expenses. Non-current assets include endowment fund assets, student loans receivable and investments expected to be held more than one year. Capital assets include construction in-progress, library materials, furniture and equipment, land, buildings and improvements and are reported net of accumulated depreciation.,.
Liabilities are classified as current or non-current. Current liabilities are claims that are due and payable within 12 months and include payroll and benefits, amounts payable to suppliers for goods and services received, and debt principal payments due within one year. Non-current liabilities are obligations payable beyond one year and include borad obligations, installment contracts, leases and earned but unused vacation and sick leave.
Net assets are divided into five categories:
Invested I In capital assets-net of related debt: represent the University's capital assets net of accumulated
- depreciation and outstanding principal balances of debt attributable to the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets.
- Restricted---non expendable net assets: University endowment funds, Land Grant Endowment.funds and similar funds for which donors or outside sources have stipulated as a condition of the gift that the principal be maintained in perpetuity.
- Restricted-loans: funds that have been established for the explicit purpose of providing student support as prescribed by statute or granting authority.
- Restricted-expendable net assets: funds that are subject to externally imposed restrictions governing their use, such as scholarships, fellowships, research, loans, professorships, capital projects, and debt service.
- Unrestricted net assets: represent those assets that are available to the University.for any lawful purpose.

Significant Changes in the Statements of Net Assets
" Current assets decreased by $26 million. Several bond funded construction projects were completed during the year and invested bond proceeds were liquidated and spent on the construction costs resulting in a decrease of $27 million in cash and investments. In addition, accounts receivable increased by $1 million.
" Capital assets, net of depreciation, increased by $99 million. This increase reflects the continuing construction costs
- of several large building and infrastructure projects across the campuses. Complete or nearly complete were the new
- Biotechnology/Life Sciences building, the Vancouver Undergraduate Classroom Building, the Olympia Avenue residence hall and the Library Road infrastructure project.
Non-current liabilities decreased by $4 million: With no new bonds issued in 2009, bonds payable decreased by $9 million, the result of principal repayments. The University's net pension obligation increased by $5 million as calculated by the State Actuary, based on forecasts of lower earnings on retirement accounts which may increase the supplemental liability.
- Net assets increased by $71 million.
Financial Health and Flexibility There are a number of ratios used by the debt rating agencies to gauge financial health and flexibility. Orie of the more significant ratios used to measure operating flexibility is the ratio of expendable net assets to total expenses. Expendable net assets (defined as restricted expendable net assets plus unrestricted net assets) can be accessed relatively quickly and spent to satisfy current obligations. This ratio indicates how long the University could function using its expendable reserves without relying on additional assets generated by operations. The University had sufficient expendable net assets to cover 2.7 months of operations in 2009, a decrease from 2008 which was 4.5 months. This decreasewas the direct result of the recession and the decrease in investment earnings.
Another popular ratio, used to measure debt cushion, is the ratio of expendable net assets (as defined above) to debt. A ratio between 0.4 times to 1.2 times would be considered good coverage by one of the major rating agencies. The University's debt cushion decreased to 0.6 times in 2009, down from 0.9 times in 2008. Again, this decrease is also a result of the poor economy.
Results of Operations-Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets The Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets is the University's equivalent of an income statement. It shows the sources and amounts of revenues earned and nature and amount of expenses incurred during the year, classified as operating, non-operating or other.
Operating revenues are the inflows of funds from providing goods and services to the University's customers. They include tuition and fees, grant and contract payments, and sales and service revenue generated by student housing, student dining and other University enterprises. Operating expenses are the funds used up in generating operating revenues and in carrying out the University's mission.
Non-operating revenues are revenues earned for which goods and services are not provided and include state appropriations, current-use gifts and grants that are designated for purposes other than capital construction, land grant endowment income, endowment distributions and investment income. Non-operating expenses include interest expense on long-term debt.
Other revenues and expenses include capital appropriations, capital gifts or grants, additions to permanent endowments and gains or losses on the disposal of capital assets.

'2009. and restated 2008 for comparison purposes.
Signifi cant Changes in the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets Operating revenues increased by $32 million. Student enrollment increased by 956 students and coupled with a 7% increase in the tuition rate resulted in $1 7.5 million more dollars in Tuition and Fees. Auxiliary enterprises revenue increased by 6% or $6 million due to the increased enrollment and an increase of 8.8% in the Housing and Dining rate and because of the reopening of the remodeled student union building in the fall of 2008. Increases in federal and local grants accounted for the remainder of the increases.
Operating expenses increased overall by $8 million. Salaries were up by $13 million due to an authorized 4% pay increase in the fall of 2008. This increase was largely offset by a 4.4% reduction in benefits expense as a result of a $4 million adjustment reducing deferred compensation liability. Utilities expense decreased by $5 million as result of decrease natural gas costs and a change in telecommunication billing. Payments for goods and services decreased by $3 million primarily as a result of a State imposed freeze on travel and equipment purchases. Scholarships and fellowships were up by $4 million as a result of more students qualifying for financial aid. Depreciation increased by $3 million as new buildings and infrastructure were added.
Net non-operating revenues decreased by $60 million. Gifts and contributions were down by $6 million and investment income decreased by $47 million due to the recession in the economy. Federal appropriations decreased by $2 million. Other non-operating revenues decreased by $5 million.
Other revenues increased by $34.5 million. State capital appropriations increased by $34.5 million largely due to the appropriation of the Vancouver Applied Technology Building to be completed in September of 2011.
Operating Performance Rating agencies use a number of ratios to assess operating performance. One of the ratios more commonly used by Moody's is annual operating margin, which compares operating surplus (or deficit) to operating revenues. Moody's definition of operating revenues includes several non-operating revenues in determining margin and an estimated spending rate of the University's investments rather than actual investment income. This ratio indicates the extent to which the University is balancing revenues with expenses and growing its resource base. In spite of the difficult economic conditions, the University's annual operating margin in 2009 was -3.34% which was an improvement over fiscal year 2008's annual operating margin of -5.05%.

As the above graphs show, the university has a diversified revenue base. No single source of revenue generated more than 27%
of the total fiscal year revenues for 2009 and 2008. State operating appropriations were $246.5 million comprising 27% of total revenue for 2009. The university relies on this state funding which subsidizes its instructional activities allowing for lower tuition rates.
Grants and contracts generated $201 million or 22% of total revenue. This was an increase of $11 million over 2008. These funds support the university's research activities which allow students to work with nationally recognized faculty as part of their educational experience.
State capital appropriations totaled $94.2 million (11% of total revenue). This was an increase of $ 34.5 million over 2008. This was largely the result of the new funding for the Vancouver Undergraduate Classroom Building to be completed in May 2011 and the Biotechnology/Life Sciences Facility, completed in June 2009.
Auxiliary enterprises generated $101 million in revenues representing 11% of the total revenue. This was an increase of $6 million over 2008. Auxiliary enterprises are essential supporting activities, such as university residences, intercollegiate athletics, and the student union.

The above graphs demonstrate that during 2009 expenditures increased in the Research and Public Service areas by 1% each.
Overall, expenditures increased by $8.4 million. Expenditures for research increased by $9.4 million, or 1% of total due to an increase in grants and contracts, including stimulus grants. The net change in all other operating expenditures consisted of increases in instruction costs and scholarships offset by decreases in nearly all other program areas.

2009 Finandal Report 9
t M anagem ent's Discussion and Analysis Long-Term Debt At June 30, 2009, the University had $290,573,000 in 'outstanding debt, representing a decrease of $8,791,810, or 3%, from the prior year. The table below summarizes outstanding debt:

Economic Outlook In the recently adopted 2009-11 biennial operating budget, the State of Washington addressed an estimated budget shortfall of $9 billion. For the University, the net effect of the shortfall was a $54.2 million or 10.4% reduction of state operating support for the biennium. Since the initial 2009-11 budget was adopted, Washington's revenue forecasts have been adjusted downward. As of November 2009, the State projects an additional $2.6 bIillion shortfall that must be addressed in the 2010 legislative session. The impact on the University will not be known until the Washington Legislature adopts its 2010 supplemental operating budget.
The State's capital budget remained 'strong, with the university receiving appropriations and bonding authorit, for the two-year biennial period of $196.8 million. Federal appropriations for the University's land grant programs are expected to remain near a
$9 million funding level.
Student tuition and fees will increase, with a portion of the incremental revenue used for financial aid. Tuition rates will increase by 14% for resident students and increase between 5% and 10% for other student categories. Enrollment is expected to be 2.8% higher than 2009, at 23,962 annual average full time equivalents fOr:the four-campus system. Overall, the University expects net tuition and fee revenues to provide $191.3 million to support operations, a 10% increase over 2009.
'Federal sponsored research and other programs are the largest portion of externally funded grant expenditures. 66% of University projects were supported by federal funding and 34% by non-federal funding in 2009. Federal research project expenditures increased only slightly between 2008 and 2009; whereas non-research project expenditures significantly increased by almost 16%. Federal non-research programs and non-federal sponsored programs, both research and non-research, have grown in recent years, offsetting the slow-down in federal sponsored research programs. Current trends indicate that federally sponsored research programs will likely grow at a faster rate in 2010. The longer-term outlook is more uncertain due to possible feeral funding constraints and dficits and the e'onomic conditions nation-wide, which couild impact both federal and non federal Project activities . ,. , -
Washington State Auditor Brian Sonntag INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT January 11,2010 Board of Regents Washington State University Pullman, Washington We have audited the acco mpanying financial statements of the business-type activities and the discretely presented component unit of Washington State University as of and for the year ended June 30, 2009, which collectively comprise the University's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the University's management. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Washington State University Foundation. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Washington State University Foundation, is based on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 supporLting 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 audit and the report of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements of Washington State University are intended to present the financial position, and the changes in financial position,,and, where applicable, cash flows of only that portion of the business-type activities of the state of Washington that is attributable to the transactions of the University. They do not purport to, and do not; present fairly the financial position of the state of Washington as of June 30, 2009, the changes in its financial position, or, where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business-type activities and the discretely presented component unit of Washington State University, as of June 30, 2009, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The management's discussion and analysis on pages 3 through 10 is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of
- inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
The information identified in he' table of contents as.EnrollrrentWnd Degrees confe purposes ofadditional ina s and is not a required part of the basic financial statements of the University. Such information has not been subjectedo the auditing procedures app ed n the audit of the basic financial statements and,.accordingly, we'express no'opinion on it.

- 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Financial Reporting Entity Washington State University ("the University"), an agency of the State of Washington, is a comprehensive degree-granting research univedrsity. It is governed by a ten member Board of Regents, appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State senate. The University is included in the general-purpose financial statements of the State.
Nature of Operations . ,
The University was created as a land grant public university by:the Washington State Legislature in 1890. The University opened its doors January 13, 1892, on land donated by the citizens of Pullman. Today, Washington State University has campuses in Pullman, Spokane, the Tri-Cities.
and Vancouver, with extension offices and learning centers across the state. Washington State University's 25,352 undergraduate, graduate and professional students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with internationally acclaimed professors and researchers. The primary missions of the University are instruction, research and public service.
Reporting Entiy The financial reporting entity is Washington State University and the WSU Foundation.as a discretely reported component unitý Component Unit The WSU Foundation ("the Foundation") is a legally separate, tax-exempt entity,and serves contractual asset management functions in support of the University's mission. The Foundation is a significant component unit based on the criteria of GASB Statement 39. This report presents the Foundation's financial condition and activities as a discretely presented separate component unit in the University's financial statements.
The Foundation reports its financial results in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and guidance.
As such, certain revenue recognition criteria and presentation features are different from GASB. No modifications have been made to the Foundation's financial information in the University's financial statements for these differences. The Foundation presents information about its financial position and activities according to the following three classes of net assets, depending on the existence and nature of donor restrictions.
Under FASB, the Foundation's net assets are described as follows:
" Unrestricted net assets-Support received that is not subject to donor-imposed restrictions and over which the Board of Directors has discretionary control.
" Temporarily restricted net assets-Support received subject to donor-imposed use restrictions or time restrictions.
- Permanently restricted net assets-Support received subject to donor-imposed restrictions stipulating that funds be invested in perpetuity.
For presentation purposes, in the University's financial statements, temporarily restricted net assets have been shown as expendable net assets and permanently restricted net assets have been shown as nonexpendable net assets.'
The Foundation's financial statements can be acquired at the following address:
WSU Foundation PO Box 641925 Pullman, WA 99164-1925 Financial Statement Presentation The financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
Basis of Accounting For financial reporting purposes, the University is considered a special-purpose government engaged in Business Type Activities (BTA). In accordance with BTA reporting, the University presents a Management's Discussion and Analysis; a Statement of Net Assets; a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets; a Statement of Cash Flows; and Notes to the Financial Statements. The financial statements are prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when an obligation has been incurred. Pursuant to GASB Statement 20, the University has elected not to apply any Financial Accounting Standards Board pronouncements issued after November 20, 1989.
16 Washington State University
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Bond premiums/discounts, issuance costs, and gains or losses on refundings are deferred and amortized over the term of the bonds using the effective interest method. Unamortized balances are presented as reductions of the face amount of bonds payable. Related amortization is included in interest expense in the statements of revenues, expenses, and changes in net assets.
Interest is capitalized on assets acquired or constructed with tax-exempt financing. The amount of interest to be capitalized is calculated by offsetting interest expense incurred while activities necessaryto get the asset ready for its intended use are in progress, with interest earned on invested proceeds over the same period. The net capitalized interest for fiscal year 2009 was $1,905,061.
Elimination of Inter-fund Transactions During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods provided, services rendered or interfund loans.
For the financial statements, the interfufnd receivables and payables have been eliminated.
Designated auxiliary enterprises have revenue and expense transactions, which are treated as though the University Were dealing with private vendors. For all other funds, transactions that are reimbursements of expenses are recorded as reductions of expense.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments Cash balances in excess of current requirements are pooled and invested in Treasury securities, time deposits, deposits with the Washington State
- Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP), federal agency bills and notes. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments convertible to known amrounts of cash without change in value or risk of loss. Interest income earned on the investment pool is distributed on a quarterly
- basis based on daily cash balances in various funds. Cash, cash equivalents, and investments are stated at fair value.
Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable consists of tuition and fee charges to students and auxiliary enterprise services provided to students, faculty and staff. This also includes amounts due from the federal government, state and local governments or private sources in connection with reimbursement of allowable expenditures made pursuant to the University's sponsored agreements. Accounts receivable are shown net of estimated uncollectible amounts.'
Inventories Inventories are stated at cost using various methods in the separate enterprise and internal service funds.
Capital Assets Land, buildings and equipment are recorded at cost, or if acquired by gift, at fairmarket value at'the date of the gift. Capital additions, replacements and major renovations are capitalized. Routine repairs and maintenance are charged to operating expense in the year in which the expense was incurred. In accordance with the state capitalization policy, only fixed assets with a unit cost of $5,000 or greater are capitalized.
Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 15 to 50 years for buildings'and components, 20 to 25 years for infrastructure and land improvements, 20 years for library resources and 5 to 7 years for equipment.
In accordance with GASB Statement 42, the University reviews assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that the carrying amount of its assets might not be recoverable. Impaired assets are reported at the lower of cost or fair value. At June 30, 2009, no assets had been written down.
Deferred Revenues Deferred revenues occur when funds have been collected in advance of an event, such as summer semester tuition and certain auxiliary activities prior to the end of the fiscal year but related to the subsequent fiscal year.
Tax Exemption The University is a tax-exempt organization under the provisions of Section 115(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and is exempt from federal income taxes on related income.
2009 Finandial Report
Notes to the Financial Statements Net Assets The University's net assets are classified as follows:
" Invested in CapitalAssets-Net of Related Debt. This represents the University's total investment in capital assets, net of outstanding debt obligations related to those capital assets. To the extent debt has been incurred but not yet.expended for capital assets, such amounts are not included as a component of capital assets.
" Restricted Net Assets-Nonexpendable. This consists of endowment and similar type funds for which donors or other outside sources have stipulated as a condition of'the gift instrument that the principal is to be maintained inviolate and in perpetuity and invested for the purpose of producing present and future income which may either be expended or added to the principle.
" Restricted Net Assets-Loans. The loan funds are established for the explicit purpose of providing student support as prescribed by statute or granting authority.
" Restricted Net Assets-Expendable. These include resources for which the University is legally or contractually obligated to spend resources in accordance with restrictions imposed by third parties.
" UnrestrictedNet Assets. These represent resources derived from student tuition and fees, state appropriations) and sales and serAces, of educational departments and auxiliary enterprises.
Classification of Revenues The University has classified its revenues as either operating or non-operating revenues according to the following criteria:
Operating Revenues. This includes activities that have the characteristics of exchange transactions such as (1) student tuition and fees, net of scholarship discounts and allowances, (2) sales and services of auxiliary enterprises and (3) most federal, state and local grants and contracts.
Non-operating Revenues. This includes activities that have the characteristics of non-exchange transactions, such as gifts and contributions, state appropriations and investment income.
Scholarship Discounts and Allowances Student tuition and fee revenues, and certain other revenues from. students, are reported net of scholarship discounts and allowances in the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets.

New Accounting Pronouncements On July 1, 2007, the University adopted GASB Statement No. 49, Accounting and FinancialReporting for Pollution Remediation Obligations. This pronouncement includes provisions for recognition and disclosure of estimated costs for cleanup of pollution that the University may have an obligation to 'remediate. Pursuant to this accounting staternent, the University has identified a number of small sites for which it may have pollution remediation liabilities but none are material.
In November 2007, GASB issued Statement No. 52, Land and Other Real Estate Held as Investments by Endowments. Statement No. 52 requires that land held for investment by endowments be reported at fair value rather than historical cost. The University has.reviewed its land holdings and determined that noneof its land is held for investment.

Interest Rate Risk-Investments Through its investment policies, the University manages exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates by limiting the modified duration of the operating portfolio to 1.1 years and by cash matching the dedicated bond portfolios to the anticipated construction schedules of the underlying projects.
Current use gift funds are segmented into short-term, intermediate-term and long-term pools. University policies limit the portfolio average maturity of the short-term pool to one year or less, the portfolio average maturity of the intermediate-term pool to three years or less, and the portfolio average maturity of the long-term pool to ten.years or less.
University endowments fall'under the Foundation investment policy, which employs broad asset class diversification to control overall endowment fund volatility, and limits fixed income investments to a maximum of 15% of total endowment fund assets.
Concentration of Credit Risk-investments State law limits University operating investments to the highest quality sectors of the domestic fixed income market and specifically excludes corporate stocks, corporate and foreign bonds, futures contracts, commodities, real estate, limited partnerships and negotiable certificates of deposit. University policy does not limit the amount the University may invest in any one issuer.
Custodial Credit Risk-Investments Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that in the event of the failure of the counterparty ,toa .transaction, the University will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. At June 30, 2009, $116,750,522 of the University's operating fund investments, held by Bank of New York Mellon in the bank's name as agent for the University, and $836,530 of endowment assets, held in street name by E'trade for the account of the University, are exposed to custodial credit risk as described in Table 4.

Public Employees Retirement System Plan Description. PERS is a multi-employer mandatory retirement plan for all eligible civil service employees. Employees hired into an eligible position prior to October 1, 1977, are enrolled in Plan 1 whileemployees hired into an eligible position on or after October 1, 1977 are enrolled in Plans 2 or 3. Retirement benefits are vested after five years of eligible service. Plan 3 has a defined contribution component that members may elect to self-direct as established by the Employee Retirement Benefits Board. The authority to establish and amend benefit provisions resides with the legislature. The Washington State Public Employees Retirement System issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for PERS. The report may be obtained by writing to the Department of Retirement Systems, PO Box 48380, Olympia, Washington 98504-8380.
Funding Policy. The Office of the State Actuary, using funding methods prescribed by statute, determines actuarially required contribution rates for PERS. The basic contribution rates, established by the legislature, match the actuarially determined rates considered necessary to fully fund the tier one system by June 30, 2024 and to continue to fully fund the tier two systems. Plan 1 members are required to contribute 6% of their annual covered salary. Contributions for Plan 2 members are determined by the aggregate method and may vary over time. The contribution rate for Plan 2 employees at June 30, 2009 was 5.45%. The contribution rate for the University at June 30, 2009 for all PERS plans was 8.31%.
The summary of rates for the year are as follows' Employee University
,:Plan 1 6.00% 8.31%
Plan 2 5.45% 8.31%
Plan 3 .9 .'5% to 15% 8.31%
Employee and employer contributions for the year ended June 30, 2009, were $3,763,672 and $7,946,450 respectively.
The pension benefit obligation is a standardized disclosure measure of the present value of pension benefits, estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The pension benefit obligation as of 2007 for PERS as a whole, determined through an actuarialF valuation performed as of that date, was $26,124,000,000. The PERS net assets available for benefits on that date (valued at market) were
$29,080,000,000. Information for WSU as a stand-alone entity is riot available.
Ten-year historical trend information showing the PERS'progress~in accumulating sufficient assets to pay-benefits when due, is presented in the State of Washington June 30; 2009, Department of Retirement Systems Comprehensive AnnualFinancialReport.
Washington State University Retirement Plan Plan Description. Faculty, professional and other staff, are eligible to participate in the Washington State University Retirement Plan (WSURP).
The Teacher's Insurance and Annuity Association (TIAA) and the College Retirement Equities Fund (CREF) are the companion organizations through which individual retirement annuities are purchased. Employees have at all times a 100% vested interest in their accumulations.
TIAA-CREF benefits are payable upon termination at the. member's option unless the participant is re-employed in another institution which
-participates in TIAA-CREF.
The Plan has a supplemental payment component that guarantees a minimum retirement benefit goal based upon a one-time calculation at each employee's retirement date. The University makes direct payments to qualifying retirees when the retirement benefit provided by TIAA-CREF does not meet the benefit goal. Employees are eligible for a non-reduced supplemental payment after the age of 65 with ten years of full-time service.
The minimum retirement benefit goal is 2% of the average annual salary f6r each year of full-time service up to a maximum of 25 years. However, if the participant does not elect to make the 10% TIAA-CREF contribution after age 49, the benefit goal is 1.5% for each year of full-time service for those~years the lower contribution rate is selected.
No significant changes were made in the benefit provisions for the year.
Contributions. Contribution rates for the WSURP (TIAA-CREF), which are based upon age, are 5%, 7.5% or 10% of salary and are matched by the University. Employee and employer contributions for the year ended June 30, 2009 were each $19,249,386.
The Washington State University Retirement Plan (supplemental payment) is financed on a pay-as-you-go basis. Supplemental payments made by the University for the year ended June 30, 2009 were $735,931.
At the latest valuation July 1, 2009, the total unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAL) benefit obligation under the Washington State University Retirement Plan (supplemental payment plan) was $40 million. The annual Required Contribution (ARC) by the University is $9 million.
2009 Financial Report 27)
Notes to the Financial Statements Other Post-Employment Benefits During the 2008 fiscal year, WSU adopted GASB Statement No.45, Accounting and FinancialReporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions. This statement establishes standards for.the measurement, recognition, and display of other post-employment benefits (OPEB) expenditures and related liabilities (assets); note disclosures, and required supplementary information in the financial reports of the state and local governmental employers. GASB Statement No. 45 requires systematic, accrual-basis measurement and recognition of OPEB cost (expense) over a period that approximates employees' years of service. GASB Statement No. 45 also provides information about actuarial accrued liabilities (AAL) associated with OPEB and whether and to what extent progress is being made in funding the plan.
The state of Washington funds OPEB obligations at a state-wide level on a pay-as-you-go basis.

- 19. Contingent Liabilities There is a class action lawsuit filed against the state of Washington on behalf of certain employees alleging improper denial of healthcare benefits. Although WSU has not been named as a defendant in the lawsuit, some of the class members are current or former employees of WSU.
Potentially, the state could assess the University with a material share of any amount paid in the event of a settlement or judgment. Due to the status of the lawsuit, the impact upon WSU cannot be assessed with reasonable certainty at present.
Additionally, the University is engaged in various legal actions in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe the ultimate outcome of these actions will have a material adverse effect on the financial statement.
- 20. Subsequent Events In October 2009, the University's Student Recreation Center issued $38,425,000 in revenue refunding bonds. The bonds are beingissued for the purpose of refunding the 1998 bonds to achieve debt service savings and to pay the'costs of issuing the bonds. This will result in an in-substance defeasance of the 1998 revenue bonds.
In December 2009, the University issued $111,665,000 in revenue bonds to finance the costs of construction of three new buildings. The bonds are special revenue fund obligations of the University, payable from revenues and investment earnings from the Trust Land Permanent Funds held in trust by the State for the University. Revenues from the Permanent Funds have been pledged to make the debt payments for'as long as the bonds are outstanding. $97 million of the bonds are taxable "Build American" bonds and are eligible for a subsidy from the Federal gov&nment to be used toward the debt service.
