INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
September 20, 2007
Honorable Mayor
Members of the City Council
City of Moab, Utah
Mayor and Council Members:
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business -type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
City of Moab, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007, which collectively comprise the City of
Moab's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the City of Moab's management. 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 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
provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, each
major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Moab, as of June 30,
2007, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, and the
budgetary comparison for the general fund 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 MDA-1 through MDA-6 is not a required part
of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Additionally, the State of Utah requires the
information in the Impact Fee Schedule on page 38, but it is not a required part of the basic financial
statements. 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.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated September
20, 2007, on our consideration of the City of Moab's internal control over financial reporting and on
our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants. That
report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards
and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City of Moab's basic financial statements. The combining non -major fund
financial statements are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of
the basic financial statements. The combining non -major fund financial statements have been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As management of the City of Moab, we offer readers of the City of Moab financial
statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. It is designed to provide an overview of the City's
financial activity. It is also intended to assist the reader in focusing on significant
financial issues including identifying changes in the City's financial position (its ability
to address the next and subsequent years' challenges), identifying any material deviations
from the approved budget, and identifying individual fund issues or concerns. We
encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the
Transmittal Letter and the City's financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
• The total net assets of City of Moab increased by $1,117,315 to $19,908,058.
The governmental net assets increased by $732,492 and the business -type net
assets increased by $384,823.
• The total net assets of $19,908,058 are made up of $14,416,145 in capital
assets net of related debt and $5,491,913 in other net assets.
• The General Fund (the primary operating fund) had an increase in its fund
balance of $915,864, due to an increase in revenue and significant revenue
over expenditures.
REPORTING THE CITY AS A WHOLE
The discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City of Moab's
basic financial statements. The City of Moab's basic financial statements comprise three
components: 1) government -wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and
3) notes to the financial statements. This report also includes other supplementary
information in addition to the basic financial statements.
The government -wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad
overview of the City of Moab's finances, in a manner similar to a private -sector business.
• The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City of Moab's
assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net
assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a useful
indicator of whether the financial position of the City of Moab is improving or
deteriorating. However, other non -financial factors will need to be
considered.
• The statement of activities presents information showing how the City's net
assets changed during the fiscal year reported. All changes in net assets are
reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs,
MDA-1
regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, all of the current year's
revenues and expenses are taken into account regardless of when cash is
received or paid.
Both of the government -wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of
Moab that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues
(governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a
significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business -type
activities).
The government -wide financial statements can be found on pages 3-4 of this report.
REPORTING THE CITY'S MOST SIGNIFICANT FUNDS
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over
resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of
Moab also uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance -
related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three
categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
• Governmental funds — These funds are used to account for the same functions
reported as governmental activities in the government -wide financial
statements. These fund statements focus on how money flows into and out of
these funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for spending.
These funds are reported using an accounting method called modified accrual
accounting, which measures cash and other financial assets that can be readily
converted to cash. The governmental fund statements provide a detailed
short-term view of the City's general government operations and the basic
services it provides. Governmental fund information helps interested persons
determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be
spent in the near future to finance the City's programs. We describe the
relationship (or differences) between governmental activities (reported in the
Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities) and governmental
funds in a reconciliation included with the fund financial statements.
The only major governmental fund (as determined by generally accepted
accounting principles) is the General Fund. The balance of the governmental
funds are determined to be non -major and are included in the combining
statements within this report.
• Proprietary funds — The only type of proprietary fund that the City of Moab
maintains is the Water and Sewer Enterprise Fund.
As determined by generally accepted accounting principles, the Water and
Sewer enterprise fund meets the criteria for major fund classification.
