COUNTY OF HURON CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET AS AT DECEMBER 31, 1993 To the Members of Council, Inhabitants and Ratepayers of the Corporation of the County of Huron We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of the Corporation of Huron as at December 31,1993 and the consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended. These statements are the responsibility of the county's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit In accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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 overall financial statement presentation. In our opinion, those consolidated financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Corporation of the County of Huron as at December 31,1993 and the results of Its operations for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting principles disclosed In note 1 to the financial statements.
