AGENDA REPORT • Committee Meeting Date: December 10, 2008 To: Finance-Accounting Committee From: Ken Vecchiarelli, Assistant General Manager Staff Contact: Diane Cyganik, Finance Director Reviewed by General Counsel: N/A Budgeted: N/A Total Budget: Funding Source: All Funds CEQA Account No: Job No: Compliance: N/A Estimated Costs: Dept: Bus Subject: Monthly Financial Statements for the third month of fiscal year 2008-09 ending September 30, 2008. SUMMARY: A presentation will be made of the Financial Statements for the third month of fiscal year 2008 - 09 ending September 30, 2008. DISCUSSION: The Water Fund had an Operating Loss for the third month of fiscal year 2008-09 ending • September 30, 2008 of $1,684,753. The key factors are outlined below: Yorba Linda Water District Monthly Financial Statement Analysis - Water Operating Fund For the Month Ending September 30, 2008 September Y-T-D Y-T-D Budget 2008 Budget Budget Description FY 2008/09 Actual Y-T-D Remaining Remaining Total Water Sales $ 17,498,010 $ 5,291,462 $ (12,206,548) -70% Total Variable Water Costs $ 11,156,500 $ 3,811,427 $ 7,345,073 66% Personnel Costs $ 7,389,200 $ 1,328,635 $ 6,060,565 82% Supplies & Services $ 3,773,100 $ 1,035,724 $ 2,737,376 73% The Water Operating Fund reflects water sales greater than what was anticipated due to the water rate increase that was not included in the budget. However, even though the sales are higher, water consumption is less than last year by 5%.The variable water costs are 9% higher than budget because of rate increases from MWDOC and OCWD plus higher energy costs. Personnel Costs are lower than anticipated due to budgeted positions that have not been filled. Supplies & Services are approximately 2% higher than budget as of September 30, 2008. The larger items comprising the variance include: Insurance (ACWA property liability for FY 2008/2009 of $244,389) and Communications for Public Relations Services of $17,320 for July • - August 2008. The Sewer Fund had an Operating Loss for the third month of fiscal year 2008-09 ending September 30, 2008 of $81,497. The key factors are outlined below: • Yorba Linda Water District Monthly Financial Statement Analysis - Sewer Operating Fund For the Month Ending September 30, 2008 Description Sewer Maintenance Charges Personnel Costs Supplies & Services September Y-T-D Y-T-D Budget 2008 Budget Budget FY 2008109 Actual Y-T-D Remaining Remaining $ 1,249,850 $ 296,073 $ (953,777) -76% $ 730,800 $ 152,569 $ 578,231 79% $ 339,600 $ 90,896 $ 248,704 73% The Sewer Maintenance Charges are pretty much right on target as to what was budgeted for at this point in time. The Personnel Costs are slightly lower than anticipated by 4% due to existing vacant positions in the Water Fund. The Personnel Costs are impacted by the Water Fund positions because of the 9% allocation of water overhead expenses to the Sewer Fund. The Supplies & Services are 2% higher than budget, a large portion attributable to Contractual Services for the trenchless sewer lining of $19,804. PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S): The Board of Directors reviews each quarter's financial statements.

The Earnings Allowance is calculated on an actual day year basis using the Earnings Credit Rate and is applied to the average investable balance (collected balance less the 10% reserve requirement) for that month. The formula for calculating the Earnings Allowance is as follows: Investable Balance Available for Services X # of Calendar Davs in Month X ECR Actual # of Days in the Year 3 AUG-05 SEP-OS OCT-05 NOV-05 DEC-05 1 •Average Ledger ■Average Collected I iSeMce Charged YORBA LINDA WATER DISTRICT 4OMPENSATING BALANCE OPTIONS: The District has the option of compensating on a fee or balance basis or a combination of both. The pricing schedule remains the same regardless of payment method. Option A: Compensating Balance Method - Compensating balances are collected balances maintained in non-interest bearing accounts adjusted to meet the Federal Reserve Requirements. The compensating balance requirement for a given month varies based upon the current earnings allowance rate, services utilized, and volumes. Using this method, you may carry excess balances forward to offset a deficit incurred during a calendar month and to cover charges in subsequent months, but excess balances cannot be carried beyond one calendar quarter. Any shortfall will be due and payable within ten days of presentment of the analysis for the final month of the quarter. Option B: Compensating Balance with Sweep - Utilizing this option, the District would utilize a sweep product. The District and the Bank would set a peg balance that would accommodate offsetting a portion or all of the monthly banking fees. Any balances above the peg would automatically sweep into one of the Bank's sweep vehicles and earn hard dollar dividends. Actual monthly charges will vary depending on the type and volume of services used. Option C: Sweep with Direct Fees - Section 53682 of the California Government Code allows public entities to pay direct fees for services. By paying in direct fees, the District would eliminate the need o maintain collected balances required for the above compensating balance methods. The daily ollected balance must be positive to avoid uncollected funds charges. If you choose this alternative, fees will be billed at the time the account analysis for the month is presented. Wells Fargo can either directly debit your account or bill you for the service fees. Fees will be due and payable within ten days of this presentment. Utilizing this option, the District would utilize a sweep product. The District and the Bank would set a peg balance of zero. All collected balances above this peg would automatically sweep into one of the Bank's sweep vehicles and earn hard dollar dividends. Actual monthly charges will vary depending on the type and volume of services used. WELLS FARGO STAGECOACH SWEEP Wells Fargo's Stagecoach SweepsM Repurchase Agreement service helps you gain maximum benefit from balances in your Wells Fargo commercial checking accounts. End of day balances are automatically swept into interest-bearing repurchase agreements. At the opening of the next business day, the funds are returned to your account. The Stagecoach Sweep Repurchase Agreement service allows you to generate additional earnings overnight while maintaining access to your cash during the day. ■ Time and Cost Savings. Stagecoach Szueep Repurchase Agreement is automated. It requires no estimating of available balances, phone calls or on-going management by your treasury • personnel. Qualifying balances are automatically swept every bank business day, whether you're in the office or not. 4 YORBA LINDA WATER DISTRICT • Enhanced Earnings. Interest on your investment accrues daily and can be paid daily or monthly on the first business day of the following month. ■ Accessibility. Funds are invested overnight and automatically deposited to your business checking account at the opening of the next business day. Investments are completely liquid. Access to your cash, including the amount invested, is available through your commercial checking account. Investments in Repurchase Agreements are undivided proportional interests in overnight repurchase obligations of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., governed by the bank's standard Repurchase Agreement. The specific type and term of the securities used in connection with Wells Fargo's repurchase obligation may vary from day to day. To help monitor your investments, your daily confirmation statement includes details of your repurchase investment and the underlying repurchase obligation of Wells Fargo Bank, including the securities held by the bank as collateral. This sweep option is an available investment option as specified by the California Government Code. The Wells Fargo Stagecoach Sweep Repurchase Agreement is subject to specific credit quality and valuation standards.

November 18, 2008 200-056-08 I, IA, VI SUBJECT: INVESTMENT RETURN IMPACT ON EMPLOYER RATES ATTENTION: FINANCE DIRECTORS, HUMAN RESOURCE DIRECTORS, PUBLIC AGENCY DECISION MAKERS CalPERS is sending this circular as a result of our commitment to periodically provide information regarding the current financial market volatility impact to the CaIPERS trust fund, to our employers and to our members. CalPERS continues to manage a well diversified portfolio and maintain a prudent, long term investment strategy in order to ensure the financial security for those we serve. RECENT EMPLOYER OUTREACH CalPERS issued Circular Letter 310-050-08 on October 6, 2008 in order to inform public agencies of the CalPERS investment policy and strategy during the market decline. That Circular Letter also addressed the impact of financial market volatility on employer contribution rates and on the security of retiree benefits. On October 21, 2008, CaIPERS staff presented an agenda item to the Board of Administration that assessed the impact to the System's funding status and employer contribution rates under various 2008/2009 fiscal year investment return scenarios. In addition, CalPERS Board Members and Executive staff addressed these same issues extensively during the 2008 CalPERS Educational Forum that was held in southern California from October 27 through October 29. This Circular Letter updates the information shared in October and includes the impact of a revision to the fiscal year 2007/2008 investment return and more recent asset return information during fiscal year 2008/2009. FINAL 2007/2008 INVESTMENT RESULTS In July 2008, CalPERS released preliminary net of fees investment returns for the 2007/2008 fiscal year of about negative 2.5 percent. Consistent with previous years, this announced return was labeled preliminary because the market value figures for the real estate and Alternate Investment Management (AIM) programs were as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. L~ P Circular Letter # 200-056-08 -2- November 18, 2008 The one to two quarter lag is a normal consequence of the time private market partners • take to complete their financial reporting to CalPERS. This lag is consistent with industry reporting standards. CalPERS has now obtained final figures for these investments. The official 2007/2008 investment return net of expenses is negative 5.1 percent. More information about the official investment return is available on the CalPERS web site at www.calpers.ca.gov. IMPACT ON 2010/2011 PUBLIC AGENCY EMPLOYER RATES Local public agency contribution rates are affected by the investment return of a given fiscal year in the third fiscal year that follows. For example, CalPERS recently set the employer contribution rates for fiscal year 2009/2010 based on the investment return of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. The negative 5.1 percent return for fiscal year 2007/2008 will first be reflected in the public agency employer contribution rates applicable for the 2010/2011 fiscal year. CalPERS achieved double digit gains in each of the four years leading up to the 2007/2008 fiscal year. Through CalPERS 15 year smoothing of investment returns, these previous positive returns will cushion the impact the 2007/2008 investment losses will have on employer contribution rates in 2010/2011. In fact as of June 30, 2007, the asset smoothing method set aside about 14 percent of the CalPERS fund as a "rainy day" fund. The negative 5.1 percent return for fiscal year 2007/2008, about 12.9 percent less than the 7.75 percent expected rate of return, uses up most of the 14 percent of the • "rainy day" fund. The good news is that employer contribution rates in 2010/2011 are not expected to increase as a result of the 2007/2008 negative 5.1 percent return. In fact, with the rate smoothing policies at CalPERS, the estimated impact of the negative 5.1 percent investment return is a decrease up to 0.1 percent of payroll in expected 2010/2011 employer rates. This assumes that all other actuarial assumptions are realized in aggregate. It is important to note that in recent years, the demographic experience of most plans translated to increases in employer rates. By now, you should have received your actuarial valuation report as of June 30, 2007, which set employer contribution rates for fiscal year 2009/2010. That actuarial valuation also contained an estimated employer contribution rate for fiscal year 2010/2011. However, due to timing and availability of data, that report projected the 2010/2011 employer rate using the preliminary estimated negative 2.5 percent rate of return rather than the actual negative 5.1 percent investment for fiscal 2007/2008. The projected employer contribution rate for 2010/2011 shown in the annual valuation report should be about 0.1 percent of payroll higher than the figure contained in this most recent report. 0 Circular Letter # 200-056-08 -3 - November 18, 2008 IMPACT ON 2011/2012 PUBLIC AGENCY EMPLOYER RATES • The investment return for fiscal year 2008/2009 will first impact public agency employer contribution rates in the 2011/2012 fiscal year. As a result of the rate stabilization method adopted by the Board, the impact on employer rates will be greatly mitigated. However, the smoothing method adopted by CaIPERS imposes a corridor of 80 percent to 120 percent of the market value of assets when determining the smoothed actuarial value of assets. Stated another way, the 15 year smoothing method stops when the actuarial value of assets hits 120 percent of the market value of assets or 80 percent of the market value assets. The corridor limit will be hit if the 2008/2009 investment return reaches about negative 13 percent. Investment return lower than negative 13 percent will produce a significantly greater impact on employer rates. Note that the impact on employer rates will vary from plan to plan based on the assets of your plan compared to the payroll of active members of your plan. The higher the ratio of assets to payroll, the greater the change in employer rate. The table below shows the estimated impact of various 2008-2009 investment returns on the employer rate for fiscal 2011/2012. ESTIMATED Change in Employer Contribution Rates in Fiscal 2011/2012 Hypoth etical Investment Return for 20 08-2009 • -20% -15% -10% 0% 7.75% 10% 20% Return Return Return Return Return Return Return Range of Increase Increase Increase Increase Decrease Decrease Decrease Estimated of about of about of about of about of less than of about of about Changes in 2% to 5% 1% to 2% 0.2% to 0.1% to 0.1% of 0.1 % to 0.2% to Rates in Fiscal of Payroll of Payroll 0.5% of 0.2% of Payroll 0.2% of 0.5% of Year 2011/2012 Payroll Payroll Payroll Payroll If CaIPERS does experience a negative return in 2008-2009 as illustrated above, and then returns to its anticipated 7.75 percent investment return, employer rates would likely continue to rise slowly over time. Returns in excess of 7.75 percent in subsequent years would be necessary to prevent a steady rise in employer rates. For example, if the 2008/2009 fiscal year ends with an investment return of negative 20 percent, investment returns of 7.75 percent in the next few years would result in increases in employer rates of about 0.2 percent to 0.6 percent of payroll each year. 0 Circular Letter # 200-056-08 -4- November 18, 2008 • IMPACT ON FUNDED STATUS CalPERS determines a plan's funded status by comparing the market value of assets to the accrued liability. The table below displays the average funded status of CalPERS public agency plans as of June 30, 2007. The table also shows the estimated funded status as of June 30, 2008 based on the negative 5.1 percent return during 2007/2008.
