C arbonarol4aer Certified Public Accountants <br /> Member: AICPA <br /> CPA Associates HSCPA <br /> INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT <br /> To the Board of Directors <br /> Hawaii Island Humane Society <br /> Kailua Kona, Hawaii 96740 -2701 <br /> We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of Hawaii Island Humane <br /> Society (a Hawaii non -profit corporation) as of June 30, 2009, and the related statements of activity, <br /> functional expenses, changes in net assets and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial <br /> statements are the responsibility of Hawaii Island Humane Society's management. Our <br /> responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. <br /> Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with auditing <br /> standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan <br /> and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free <br /> of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the <br /> amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting <br /> principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall <br /> financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our <br /> opinion. <br /> Due to lack of documentation and lack of internal controls over the cash receipts functions, we were <br /> not able to adequately verify that all cash receipts were properly recorded and deposited. <br /> Accordingly, it was not practicable for us to extend our audit of such receipts beyond the amounts <br /> recorded. <br /> In our opinion, except for the effects of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to <br /> be necessary had the cash receipts functions noted in the preceding paragraph been susceptible to <br /> satisfactory audit tests, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material <br /> respects, the financial position of Hawaii Island Humane Society as of June 30, 2009, and the <br /> changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting <br /> principles generally accepted in the United States of America. <br /> Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements <br /> taken as a whole. The schedule of county program activity on page 8 is presented for purposes of <br /> additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has <br /> been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, <br /> in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements <br /> taken as a whole. <br /> C P,4 <br /> Mountain View, Hawaii <br /> October 28, 2009 <br /> P.O.
