Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Nantucket Memorial Airport (the
“Airport”), an enterprise fund of the Town of Nantucket, Massachusetts, as of and for the year ended
June 30, 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the
Airport’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In fiscal year 2013, the Airport implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”)
Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of
Resources, and Net Position. See Note B for detail regarding the impact this GASB Statement had on
the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes
the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant
accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinions.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Airport as of June 30, 2013, and the changes in financial position and, cash
flows thereof, for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Other Matters
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that management’s
discussion and analysis, the funding and contribution progress for pension benefits and other post-
employment benefits information as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic
financial statements. Such information, although not part of the basic financial statements, is required
by the GASB, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic
financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic or historical context.
We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries
of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for
consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other
knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an
opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us
with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Reporting Required By Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated December 5,
2013 on our consideration of the Town of Nantucket, Massachusetts’ internal control over financial
reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant
agreements and other matters. That report was issued in conjunction with the audit of the Airport,
which is an enterprise fund of the Town of Nantucket, Massachusetts. The purpose of that report is to
describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the
results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on
compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government
Auditing Standards in considering the Town’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Our discussion and analysis of the Nantucket Memorial Airport’s (the “Airport”) financial performance
provides an overview of the Airport’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The
Airport is an enterprise fund of the Town of Nantucket, Massachusetts (the “Town”). We encourage
readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with their review of the basic financial
statements, notes to the basic financial statements and required supplementary information.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The assets of the Airport exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent fiscal year by
$53,954,831 (total net position).
The Airport’s total net position at June 30, 2013 decreased $946,506, or 1.7%, from June 30,
2012. This decrease was due primarily to the net loss from operations sustained by the Airport
in fiscal year 2013 offset by intergovernmental revenues and transfers from the Town.
The Airport’s unrestricted net asset total at June 30, 2013 was $5,522,096, which is
approximately 38.4% of its fiscal year 2013 operating expenses.
The Airport’s general obligation bonds increased to $9,235,000 at June 30, 2013 from
$8,529,000 at June 30, 2012 as fiscal year 2013 borrowings of $1,235,000 exceeded scheduled
principal repayments of $619,000. In addition, the Airport retired $5,414,224 in bond
anticipation notes in fiscal year 2013 and received an additional $1,110,029 from bond
anticipation notes sales.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This report consists of two parts: management’s discussion and analysis and the basic financial
statements. The financial statements also include notes that explain information in the financial
statements in more detail. The Airport is an enterprise fund of the Town. Accordingly, the financial
statements are presented using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of
accounting. Enterprise fund statements offer short-term and long-term financial information about the
activities and operations of the Airport. These statements are presented in a manner similar to a private
business.
The statement of net position presents information on all of the Airport’s assets and deferred outflows of
resources and its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference between the two
reported as net position (formerly referred to as net assets). Over time, increases or decreases in net
position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial condition of the Airport is improving or
deteriorating.
The statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net position presents information showing how the
Airport’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are
reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of
related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will
only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected receivables and earned but unused
vacation leave.)
The statement of cash flows presents information on the Airport’s cash receipts, cash payments and
changes in cash resulting from operations, investments and financing activities.

As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of the Airport’s financial
condition. In the case of the Airport, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources by $53,954,831 at June 30, 2013.
The Airport’s net position is categorized as either invested in capital assets, net, or unrestricted. The
vast majority of the Airport’s net position is classified as invested in capital assets, net. This includes
the historical cost or donated value of land, buildings, infrastructure, vehicles, machinery and equipment
less any related debt used to acquire those assets outstanding at year end. The Airport uses these assets
to serve its customers and consequently these assets are not available for future spending. Although the
Airport’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the
resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets
themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. Net position invested in capital assets, net
decreased $1,103,043, or 2.2%, in fiscal year 2013.
Unrestricted net position totaled $5,522,096 at June 30, 2013 and may be used by the Airport to meet its
future obligations, subject to statutory restrictions. Unrestricted net position increased $159,537 in
fiscal year 2013 as a result of the intergovernmental revenues and net transfers in from the Town offset
by the Airport’s net operating loss.
The Airport’s operations are subject to annual appropriations by Town Meeting. Statutory accounting
differs greatly from accounting generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. A
reconciliation of the Airport’s statutory accounting and the financial statements presented herein can be
found in Note K to the financial statements.
CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
The Airport’s capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation totaled $62,602,733 at June 30, 2013. This
was $100,494 greater that the June 30, 2012 balance as fiscal year 2013 additions exceeded fiscal year
2013 depreciation expense. Note E to the financial statements presents a detailed analysis of the
Airport’s capital assets, net.
General obligations bonds payable, net of unamortized bond premiums, totaled $9,506,103 at June 30,
2013. In fiscal year 2013, the Airport received $1,325,000 in proceeds from the sale of general
obligation bonds and made scheduled principal repayments of $619,000 on its general obligation bonds.
In addition, the Airport retired $5,414,224 in bond anticipation notes in 2013 and received an additional
$1,110,029 from bond anticipation notes sales. Notes G and H to the financial statements present
detailed analyses of long-term and short-term debt.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2013
NOTE A – REPORTING ENTITY
The Nantucket Memorial Airport (the “Airport”) is an enterprise fund of the Town of Nantucket,
Massachusetts (the “Town”). The Airport operated three runways and is the second busiest airport in
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Airport’s operations are governed by the Nantucket
Memorial Airport Commission (the “Commission”), which is a five-person board appointed by the
Town’s Board of Selectmen.
NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies of the Airport conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, or GAAP, as applicable to governmental units. The Airport’s financial
statements are not intended and do not present fairly the financial position of the Town.
Following are the significant accounting and reporting policies of the Airport:
Basis of Presentation – The Airport’s financial statements are reported using the economic resources
measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting as specified by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board’s (“GASB”) requirements for an enterprise fund. The Airport’s operations are
accounted for as an enterprise fund, which is a proprietary fund type. Proprietary funds distinguish
operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating revenues and expenses. Operating revenues and
expenses result from the day-to-day operation of the Airport. All other revenues and expenses are
reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
In 2013, the Airport implemented GASB Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred
Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position. As a result of the
implementation of this Standard, the Airport reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred
inflows of resources in fiscal year 2013. In addition, the basic financial statements were renamed to
the statement of net position and statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net position. These
statements were formerly referred to as the statement of net assets and statement of revenues,
expenses and changes in net assets. All previous references to net assets have been replaced with the
concept of net position in accordance with GASB No. 63.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of basic financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, disclosure for contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the basic financial statements,
and the reported amounts of the revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. Actual results could
vary from estimates that were used.
Revenue Recognition – Revenues from the Airport’s operations are recorded when earned, regardless
of the timing of related cash flows. Grants are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility
requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 9 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable and warrants payable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these items.
Taxes – The Airport is exempt from all federal and state income taxes and local property taxes.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and
short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Investments are carried at fair
value.
Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
An allowance for uncollectible accounts is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the
Airport’s inability to collect payments from customers. This allowance is established using estimates
based on factors such as the composition of the accounts receivable aging, historical bad debts,
changes in payment patterns, changes to customer creditworthiness and current economic trends.
Inventory – Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined on the first-
in, first-out method. Inventory consists of aviation fuel at June 30, 2013.
Capital Assets – Capital assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased
or constructed. All purchases and construction costs in excess of $10,000 and with useful lives
exceeding one year are capitalized at the date of acquisition or construction. The costs of normal
repairs and maintenance that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are
not capitalized.
Capital assets (excluding land) are depreciated by the Airport on a straight-line-basis. The estimated
useful lives (in years) of capital assets by major asset class are as follows:
Infrastructure 40 to 70
Buildings 33 to 50
Vehicles 5
Machinery and equipment 10 to 15
Furniture, fixtures and computer equipment 5 to 10
Compensated Absences – Employees earn vacation and sick time as they provide services to the
Airport. Employees may accumulate (subject to certain limitations) unused sick time earned and,
upon retirement, termination or death, be compensated for unused portions of the time earned.
Unused vacation time may be carried for 6 months, then, it reverts to a use or lose policy. These
vested and accumulated benefits are reported as a liability in these financial statements.
NOTE C – CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
As required by state law, the Airport’s cash is in the control of the Town’s treasurer. State laws and
regulations require the treasurer to invest funds only in pre-approved investment instruments, which
include, but are not necessarily limited to, bank deposits, money markets, certificates of deposit, U.S.
obligations, repurchase agreements, and the State Treasurer’s investment pool (“the Pool”). In
addition, the statutes impose various limitations on the amount and length of investments and
deposits. Repurchase agreements cannot be for a period of over ninety days, and the underlying
security must be a United States obligation.
Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 10 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
The Pool meets the criteria of an external investment pool. The Pool is administered by the
Massachusetts Municipal Depository Trust (“MMDT”), which was established by the Treasurer of the
Commonwealth who serves as Trustee. The fair value of the position in the Pool is the same as the
value of the Pool shares
At June 30, 2013, the Airport maintained $814,392 in investments that it classified as cash
equivalents in these financial statements. Short-term investments consisted of $651,787 in the
MMDT and $162,605 in repurchase agreements.
The Board of Selectmen has adopted policies related to risk for the Town, its enterprise funds, all
departments and the County. These may be reviewed at the Town’s website, under the Finance
Department and those that apply to the Airport are summarized below:
Custodial Credit Risk: Deposits and Investments - In the case of deposits, this is the risk that in the
event of a bank failure, the government’s deposits may not be returned to it. The Town’s current
deposit requires that the Treasurer review each bank doing business with the Town on a quarterly
basis. The policy does not restrict the value of uninsured or uncollateralized investments held at any
time.
In the case of investments, this is the risk that in the event of the invested party not being able to
provide required payments to investors, ceasing to exist, or filing of bankruptcy, the Town may not be
able to recover the full amount of its principal investment and/or investment earnings. The Town’s
current policy requires all securities not held directly by the Treasurer must be held by a third party
custodian approved by the Treasurer in the Town/County’s name and tax identification number.
Concentration of Credit Risk – The Town does not place a limit on the amount that may be invested
in any one issuer. All of the Airport’s investments were in the form of pooled investments with the
MMDT and repurchase agreements. Approximately 80% of the Airport’s investments were in the
MMDT and 20% in repurchase agreements.
Interest Rate Risk – The Town limits investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure to
fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates. The policy limits investments of operating
funds to one year or less and limits investment maturities of trust funds and other special funds to
periods no longer that seven years, maintaining an average maturity no greater than three years for the
investment portfolio.
Credit Risk – The Town restricts the investment of operating funds to U.S. Treasury or Agency
securities which carry “AAA” ratings. The Airport’s current investments are short-term and
classified as cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable at June 30, 2013 consisted of the following:

NOTE G – TEMPORARY DEBT PLAN
The Airport is authorized to borrow on a temporary basis to fund the following:
Current Operating Costs – Prior to the collection of revenues, expenditures may be financed through
the issuance of tax anticipation notes (“TANS”) or revenue anticipation notes (“RANS”).
Capital Projects and Other Approved Costs – Projects may be temporarily funded through the
issuance of bond anticipation notes (“BANS”) or grant anticipation notes (“GANS”). In certain
cases, prior to the issuance of these temporary notes, the governing body must take the necessary
legal steps to authorize the issuance of the general obligation bonds. Temporary notes may not
exceed the aggregate amount of bonds authorized or the grant award amount.
Details related to temporary debt activity for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 was as follows:
Temporary notes are general obligations of the Airport and carry maturity dates not in excess of
one year and are interest bearing and will be paid through future issuance of general obligation
bonds. The BANS were issued primarily to finance costs related to the Airport’s general
administration building construction, runway improvements and an Airport Master Plan update.
NOTE H – LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
The following reflects the activity in the Airport’s long-term liability accounts during the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2013:
Bond and Note Indebtedness – The Airport, through the Town, issues general obligation bonds and
notes to provide funds for the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities. State law
permits the Town, under the provisions of Chapter 44, Section 10, to authorize indebtedness up to a
limit of five percent of its equalized valuation. Debt issued in accordance with this section of the law
is designated as being “inside the debt limit.” In addition, the Town may authorize debt in excess of
that limit for specific purposes. Such debt, when issued, is designated as being “outside the debt
limit.”

NOTE I – RETIREMENT SYSTEM
System Description – The Airport contributes to the Barnstable County Contributory Retirement
System (the “Retirement System”), a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan
administered by the Barnstable County Retirement Board. A stand-alone financial report for the year
ended December 31, 2012, was issued and is available at the Barnstable County Retirement Office,

Substantially all Airport employees participate in the Retirement System. The members of the
Retirement System do not participate in the Social Security system. Benefits paid under the
Retirement System, referred to as “retirement allowances,” include both an annuity portion, funded
principally from amounts contributed by the participants, and a pension portion, funded by the
Airport.
Benefits – Massachusetts contributory retirement system benefits are uniform from retirement system
to retirement system. Generally, the Retirement System provides for retirement allowance benefits up
to a maximum of 80% of a participant’s highest three-year average annual rate of regular
compensation. Benefit payments are based upon a participant’s age, length of creditable service,
level of compensation and group classification.
The retirement allowance consists of two parts: an annuity and a pension. Participants’ accumulated
total deductions and portions of the interest they generate constitute the annuity. The differential
between the total retirement benefit and annuity is the pension.
From time to time, the Legislature may grant cost-of-living increases to benefits being paid to
retirees. These increases are expressed as a percentage of the retiree’s allowance subject to a
maximum dollar increase. Since 1982, cost-of-living increases granted to members of local
retirement systems have been the financial responsibility of the State. However, beginning in 1998,
the funding of future cost-of-living amounts became the responsibility of the participating units.
These units are responsible for the full cost-of-living amounts for all new retirees beginning that year,
and for any additional cost-of-living increases granted to individuals who retired before 1998. The
State shall continue to fund the cost-of-living amounts granted to retirees prior to 1998 for the
duration of their selected retirement option.
Participants who resign from service and who are not eligible to receive a retirement allowance or are
under the age of 55 are entitled to request a refund of their accumulated total contributions. In
addition, depending upon the number of years of creditable service, such employees are entitled to
receive 0%, 50% or 100% of the regular interest that has accrued upon those contributions. A vested
employee under the age of 55 who elects to leave his accumulation on deposit may apply for benefits
upon reaching that age. Survivor benefits are extended to eligible beneficiaries of participants whose
death occurs to or following retirement.
The Retirement System may be amended or terminated in whole or in part at any time by the
Massachusetts Legislature, provided that no such modification, amendment or termination shall be
made that would deprive a current member of superannuation pension rights or benefits provided
under applicable laws of Massachusetts, if such member has paid the stipulated contributions
specified in sections or provisions of such laws.
Normal Retirement – Normal retirement occurs at age 65; however, participants may retire after
twenty years of service or at any time after attaining age 55, if hired prior to April 2, 2012 or at any
time after attaining age 60 if hired on or after April 2, 2012. Participants with hire dates subsequent
to January 1, 1978 must have a minimum of ten years’ creditable service in order to retire at age 55.
Participants become vested after ten years of service. Benefits commencing before age 65 are
provided at a reduced rate. Members working in certain occupations may retire with full benefits
earlier than age 65.
Disability Retirement – The Retirement System provides for both an ordinary disability retirement,
where a participant is permanently incapacitated from a cause unrelated to employment, and an
Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 15 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
accidental disability retirement, where the disability is the result of an injury or illness received or
aggravated in the performance of duty. The amount of benefits to be received in such cases is
dependent upon several factors, including the age at which the disability retirement occurs, the years
of service, average compensation and veteran status.
Funding Status and Progress – Barnstable County elected provisions of Chapter 32, Section 22D of
Massachusetts General Laws, which require that a funding schedule be established to fully fund the
accrued liability by June 30, 2040. Under provisions of this law, participating employers are assessed
their share of the total retirement cost based on the entry age, normal actuarial cost method.
Amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability is determined using the level dollar amortization
method over a 19-year period. Currently, Barnstable County’s funding schedule is calculated to fully
fund the accrued liability by June 30, 2038.
Contribution Requirements and Contributions Made – The Retirement System’s funding policies
have been established by Chapter 32 of the Massachusetts General Laws. The annuity portion of the
retirement allowance is funded by employees who contribute a percentage of their regular
compensation. Employees whose creditable service began prior to January 1, 1975, contribute 5% of
their base salary or wage; those whose service date is subsequent to January 1, 1975 and prior to
January 1, 1984, contribute 7%; those whose service date is subsequent to January 1, 1984, and prior
to July 1, 1996, contribute 8%, and those whose service date is subsequent to July 1, 1996, contribute
9%. Additionally, employees hired after January 1979 contribute an additional 2% on earnings in
excess of $30,000.
The total Airport contributions to the Retirement System for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and
2011 were $511,951, $485,624 and $495,449, respectively. This equaled its required contribution for
each fiscal year. At June 30, 2013, the Airport did not have a net pension obligation.
NOTE J – OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
Plan Description – In addition to the pension benefits previously described, the Airport provides
health and life insurance benefits to current and future retirees, their dependents and beneficiaries (the
“Plan”) in accordance with Massachusetts General Law Chapter 32B. Specific benefit provisions and
contribution rates are established by collective bargaining agreements, state law, and Town ordinance.
All benefits are provided through the Town’s insurance program. The Plan does not issue a stand-
alone financial report since there are no assets legally segregated for the sole purpose of paying
benefits under the Plan. For purposes of the Plan, the Airport is a department within the Town, which
had 463 active employees and 307 retirees, beneficiaries and dependents for a total of 770.
Funding Policy – The contribution requirements of Plan members and the Airport are established
through collective bargaining agreements. Retirees contribute approximately 20% of the calculated
contribution primarily through pension benefit deductions. The remainder of the cost is funded by the
Airport. The Airport currently contributes enough money to the Plan to satisfy current obligations on
a pay-as-you-go basis. The costs of administering the Plan are paid by the Airport.
Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation – The Airport’s annual OPEB cost is calculated based
on the annual required contribution (“ARC”) of the employer, and actuarially determined amount that
is calculated in accordance with GASB Statement Number 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting
by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. The ARC represents a level of
funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize
any unfunded liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years.

The following table reflects the activity regarding the Airport’s OPEB obligation:
OPEB obligation at beginning of year $ 1,599,576
Annual required contribution 387,675
Contributions made (132,849)

Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and
assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events into the future. Amounts determined
regarding the funded status of the Plan and the ARC of the employer are subject to continual revision
as estimates are compared to actual results and past expectations.
Methods and Assumptions – Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the
substantive Plan and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the
historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and the Plan members to that point.
The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce short-
term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the
long-term perspective of the calculations. The significant methods and assumptions as of the latest
valuation are as follows:
Valuation date June 30, 2012
Actuarial cost method Projected Unit Credit
Amortization method Amortization payments increasing at 4.0%
Amortization period 30 years open
Interest discount rate 4.5%
Healthcare/medical cost trend rate 8.0% decreasing by 0.5% for 6 years to an
ultimate level of 5.0% per year
Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 17 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
NOTE K – RECONCILIATION OF STATUTORY
The Airport’s accounting records are prepared on a basis other than GAAP to conform to the Uniform
Municipal Accounting System basis and for Town purposes. A reconciliation of the budgetary-basis
to GAAP basis results for the Statement of Changes in Net Position for the year ended June 30, 2013
is as follows:
A Accounts receivable in the statutory accounting records are fully deferred. Enterprise funds do not defer accounts
receivable. Amount represents the difference between the deferred revenue balances at June 30, 2013 and 2012.
B Proceeds from long-term general obligations and principal payments on long-term obligations are recorded in the
statutory accounting records on the cash-basis of accounting. In enterprise funds, these transactions are recorded as
increases and decreases to long-term debt.
C Amount represents the increase in inventory of $217,616 and $24,387 increase in accrued payroll.
D Capital outlays in the statutory accounting records are recorded as expenditures. Enterprise funds capitalize these costs
and depreciate these items over their estimated useful lives.
E Amount represents a $32,550 increase in compensated absence costs and a $254,826 increase in OPEB costs.
F The allowance for uncollectible accounts increased from $36,210 at June 30, 2012 to $267,100 at June 30, 2013.
G Amount represents the normal, scheduled amortization of the June 30, 2012 unamortized premium on bonds and notes
and the reversal of accrued interest at June 30, 2012.
H Amount represents the reversal of the intergovernmental receivable balance at June 30, 2012 and current accrual of
$13,265.

Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 18 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
NOTE L – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Airport’s general administration building construction was in process at June 30, 2013. The
original contractor awarded the construction contract was removed from the project in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the construction project and applicable laws and regulations in
February 2013. The bonding insurer has assumed the remainder of the project. Management believes
that this construction project will be completed within its original budget.
At June 30, 2013, the Airport had open contracts totaling $0.8 million. Of this total, $0.7 million
pertained to general administration building construction and $0.1 million for infrastructure projects.
The Airport is party to certain legal claims, which are subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome
of individual litigation matters is not always predictable with assurance. Although the amount of
liability, if any, at June 30, 2013, cannot be determined, management believes that any resulting
liability, if any, should not materially affect the basic financial statements of the Airport at June 30,
2013.
Amounts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor
agencies, principally the federal and state governments. Any disallowed claims, including amounts
already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of
expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time, although the
Airport expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
The Airport is subject to certain Federal arbitrage laws in accordance with long-term borrowing
agreements. Failure to comply with the rules could result in the payment of penalties. The amount of
penalties, if any, cannot be determined at this time, although the Airport expects such amounts, if any,
to be immaterial.
NOTE M – ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE
The Airport’s operations continue to report operating losses. The operating losses for fiscal years
2013 and 2012 were $2,440,104 and $2,219,691, respectively. The Airport is dependent in part on
intergovernmental grants from federal and state agencies as well as operating transfers from the
Town. In fiscal years 2013 and 2012, the Airport recorded $907,696 and $4,209,521 in
intergovernmental revenues, respectively, and $954,667 and $4,209,521 in net transfers in from the
Town. Without these funds, the Airport would not generate sufficient funds from its operations to
sustain its operations.
NOTE N – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Airport has evaluated subsequent events through November 7, 2013 which is the date the
financial statements were available to be issued.
NOTE O – IMPLEMENTATION OF GASB PRONOUNCEMENTS
Current Year Implementations
In November 2010, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Financial Reporting
for Service Concession Arrangements. The objective of this Statement was to improve financial
Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 19 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
reporting by addressing issues related to service concession arrangements. The provisions of GASB
60 became effective for the Airport in fiscal year 2013 and did not have a material effect on its
financial statements.
In November 2010, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 61, The Financial Reporting Entity:
Omnibus—an amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 34. The objective of this Statement
was to improve financial reporting for a governmental financial reporting entity. The requirements of
Statement No. 14, The Financial Reporting Entity, and the related financial reporting requirements of
Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements—and Management’s Discussion and Analysis—for
State and Local Governments, were amended to better meet user needs and to address reporting entity
issues that have arisen since the issuance of those Statements. The provisions of GASB 61 became
effective for the Airport in fiscal year 2013 and did not have a material effect on its financial
statements.
In December 2010, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 62, Codification of Accounting and
Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA
Pronouncement. The Statement was intended to enhance the usefulness of its Codification by
incorporating guidance that previously could only be found in certain Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) and American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”)
pronouncements. The provisions of GASB 62 became effective for the Airport in fiscal year 2013
and did not have a material effect on its financial statements.
In June 2011, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows
of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position. The objective of this Statement was
to provide financial reporting guidance for deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of
resources. Concepts Statement No. 4, Elements of Financial Statements, introduced and defined
those elements as a consumption of net assets by the government that is applicable to a future
reporting period, and an acquisition of net assets by the government that is applicable to a future
reporting period, respectively. The provisions of GASB 63 became effective for the Airport in fiscal
year 2013 and did not have a material effect on its financial statements.
In June 2011, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 64, Derivative Instruments: Application of
Hedge Accounting Termination Provisions—an amendment of GASB Statement No. 53. The
objective of this Statement was to clarify whether an effective hedging relationship continues after the
replacement of a swap counterparty or a swap counterparty’s credit support provider. The provisions
of GASB 64 became effective for the Airport in fiscal year 2013 and did not have a material effect on
its financial statements.
Future Implementations
In March 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and
Liabilities. This Statement establishes accounting and financial reporting standards that reclassify, as
deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources, certain items that were previously
reported as assets and liabilities and recognizes, as outflows of resources or inflows of resources,
certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities. This Statement also provides
other financial reporting guidance related to the impact of the financial statement elements deferred
outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources, such as changes in the determination of the
major fund calculations and limiting the use of the term deferred in financial statement presentations.
The provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after
December 15, 2012 (fiscal year 2014). The Airport is currently evaluating whether adoption will
have a material impact on the financial statements.
Nantucket Memorial Airport Page 20 of 22 Basic Annual Financial Statements
In March 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 66, an amendment of GASB Statements No.
10 and No. 62. The objective of this Statement is to improve accounting and financial reporting for a
governmental financial reporting entity by resolving conflicting guidance that resulted from the
issuance of two pronouncements, Statements No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental
Fund Type Definitions, and No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance
Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA Pronouncements. The provisions of this
Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 2012 (fiscal
year 2014). The Airport is currently evaluating whether adoption will have a material impact on the
financial statements.
In June 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans.
This Statement replaces the requirements of Statement No. 25, Financial Reporting for Defined
Benefit Pension Plans and Note Disclosures for Defined Contribution Plans and Statement 50 as they
relate to pension plans that are administered through trusts or similar arrangements meeting certain
criteria. This Statement builds upon the existing framework for financial reports of defined benefit
pension plans, which includes a statement of fiduciary net position (the amount held in a trust for
paying retirement benefits) and a statement of changes in fiduciary net position. Statement 67
enhances note disclosures and RSI for both defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans.
Statement 67 also requires the presentation of new information about annual money-weighted rates of
return in the notes to the financial statements and in 10-year RSI schedules. The provisions of this
Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15, 2013 (fiscal year
2014). The Airport is currently evaluating whether adoption will have a material impact on the
financial statements.
In June 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for
Pensions — an amendment of GASB Statement No. 27. Statement 68 replaces the requirements of
Statement No. 27, Accounting for Pensions by State and Local Governmental Employers and
Statement No. 50, Pension Disclosures, as they relate to governments that provide pensions through
pension plans administered as trusts or similar arrangements that meet certain criteria. Statement 68
requires governments providing defined benefit pensions to recognize their long-term obligation for
pension benefits as a liability for the first time, and to more comprehensively and comparably
measure the annual costs of pension benefits. The Statement also enhances accountability and
transparency through revised and new note disclosures and required supplementary information. The
provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15,
2013 (fiscal year 2014). The Airport believes the adoption of this statement will have a material
impact on the financial statements.
In January 2013, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 69, Government Combinations and
Disposals of Government Operations. GASB 69 established accounting and financial reporting
standards to government combinations and disposals of government operations. The provisions of
this Statement are effective for financial reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 (fiscal
year 2015). The Airport is currently evaluating whether adoption will have a material impact on the
financial statements.
In April 2013, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 70, Accounting and Financial Reporting for
Nonexchange Financial Guarantees. The objective of GASB 70 is to improve accounting and
financial reporting by governments that extend and receive nonexchange financial guarantees. The
provisions of this Statement are effective for financial reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2013
(fiscal year 2015). The Airport is currently evaluating whether adoption will have a material impact
on the financial statements.
