Gambia 8 - Unregulated and Affiliate Transactions.PDF
1
UNREGULATED AND AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
2
AFFILIATED OR RELATED PARTIES
• Parties (affiliates) that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the enterprise.
• Entities for which investments are accounted for by the equity method. • Trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing
trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management • Principal owners of the enterprise (more than 10% of voting interest) • Management • Members of immediate families of principal owners and its
management • Other parties who can control, or be controlled by, management or
operating policies of the company
3
REQUIRED DISCLOSURES (SFAS 57)
• Must disclose material related party transactions, other than transactions in normal course of business (e.g., compensation) – Eliminated in consolidated financial statements
• Disclosures might include: – Nature or relationship – Description of transaction – Amounts due to or from related parties
4
REQUIRED DISCLOSURES (SFAS 57)
• Requires the auditor to consider whether sufficient competent evidential matter has been obtained during the audit to understand the relationship of the parties and, for related party transactions, the effects of the transaction on the financial statements
• Auditor should determine that the financial statement disclosures are adequate and appropriate
• Since it is difficult to substantiate representations that transaction was consummated on arm’s-length terms, if such a representation is included in the financial statements and the auditor believes it is unsubstantiated by management, then a qualified or adverse opinion should be expressed because of a departure from generally accepted accounting principles.
5
U.S. (...) The auditor should decide on the degree of assurance required and the extent to which available information provides such assurance
12
SOURCE INFORMATION
• A key source of information on these topics used in preparation of this presentation: Accounting and Auditing for Related Parties and Related Party Transactions: A Toolkit for Accountants and Auditors – Prepared by the staff of the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants
13
AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS REGULATORY CONCERNS
• Cost shifting • Profit shifting • Risk shifting • Anti-competitive behavior
– Cross subsidization
14
GUIDELINES FOR COST ALLOCATIONS AND AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Cost Allocation Principles – The maximum extent practicable, costs should be collected
and classified on a direct basis for each asset, service or product provided.
– The general method for charging indirect costs should be on a fully allocated cost basis
– To the extent possible, all direct and allocated costs should be traceable on the books of the applicable regulated utility to the applicable uniform system of accounts. Documentation should be made available to the appropriate regulatory authority upon request regarding transactions between the regulated utility and its affiliates.
15
GUIDELINES FOR COST ALLOCATIONS AND AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Cost Allocation Principles (Continued) – The allocation methods should apply to the regulated entity’s affiliates
in order to prevent subsidization from, and ensure equitable cost sharing among the regulated entity and its affiliates, and vice versa.
– All costs should be classified to services or products which, by their very nature, are either regulated, non-regulated, or common to both.
– The primary cost driver of commons costs should be identified and used to allocate the cost between regulated and non-regulated services or products.
– The indirect costs of each business unit, including the allocated costs of shared services, should be spread to the services or products to which they are related using relevant cost allocators.
16
GUIDELINES FOR COST ALLOCATIONS AND AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Affiliate Transaction Pricing Guidelines – Generally the price for services, products and the use of
assets provided by a regulated entity to its non- regulated affiliates should be at the higher of fully allocated costs or prevailing market prices
– Generally, the price for services, products and the use of assets provided by a non-regulated affiliate to a regulated affiliate should be at the lower of fully allocated cost or prevailing market prices
17
GUIDELINES FOR COST ALLOCATIONS AND AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• An audit trail should exist • The regulator should have complete access to all
affiliate records necessary to ensure that cost allocations and affiliate transactions are conducted in accordance with the guidelines
• The regulators, not the utilities, should determine (within reason) what information is relevant for a particular audit objective
18
REGULATORY OBJECTIVES IN REVIEWING AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Determine methods of accumulating costs to be allocated are reasonable
• Determine that methods of allocating costs are reasonable based on benefits received and methods are properly computed and applied
• Determine that overhead costs are reasonable and properly allocated
• Determine that any return component is reasonable
19
REGULATORY OBJECTIVES IN REVIEWING AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Determine that the percent of shared officers’ time is allocated to appropriate entities or services based on the actual time or time studies, and that resulting allocation percentages are reasonable based on benefits received and methods are properly computed and applied
• Determine that charges from affiliates are reasonable as to pricing method and levels and are consistently treated
• Determine that transactions with non-utility affiliates do not result in cross subsidies by or to utility operations
20
REGULATORY REVIEW OF AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Useful items – A list of all known related parties and any transactions between
the utility and those parties – List of boards of directors and officers of various entities to
check for common directors and officers – Establish if there are transactions occurring between entities that
are not being recorded or for which charges are not being made – Review significant loans for unusual interest rates – Obtain description of method used for allocations – Compare current allocations and methods to that of prior years – Review any fair market value studies completed by the utility
21
REGULATORY REVIEW OF AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS
• Useful Items (Continued) – Determine method used to allocate common or
shared salaries and corporate costs • Timesheets for officers may be suspect as may be
filled out randomly by office assistant
– Compare returns included in services from unregulated entities to regulated entities to returns allowed for the regulated entity
