3 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT Board of Directors McNally Smith College, Inc. and Subsidiary Saint Paul, Minnesota We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of McNally Smith College, Inc. and Subsidiary (the College) as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the College s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of McNally Smith College, Inc. as of December 31, 2009, were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 31, 2010, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. As discussed in Note 11, the College has restated its 2009 financial statements during the current year to record capital leases, non-compete agreements and environmental remediation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The other auditors reported on the 2009 financial statements before the restatement. 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 opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of McNally Smith College, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying footnote 12 on the institutions calculation on its Title IV 90/10 revenue test are required by the U.S. Department of Education and are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

4 Board of Directors McNally Smith College, Inc. and Subsidiary In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated May 5, 2011 on our consideration of McNally Smith College, Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. 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 internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit. We also audited the adjustments described in Note 11 that were applied to restate the 2009 financial statements. In our opinion such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.

9 NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Business McNally Smith College, Inc. does business as McNally Smith College of Music and operates from its location in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The College prepares students for a fulfilling future in the global music industry by providing a culture of learning that enables them to reach their creative, intellectual and personal potential, and enriches our society through their artistry and leadership. The College markets to potential students worldwide. The College also sells musical instruments, textbooks and other music items to its students and faculty. MSCM Housing, LLC was created in 2010 to operate student housing for the benefit of the College s students. The LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the College. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of McNally Smith College, Inc. and MSCM Housing, LLC (collectively, the College). All significant balances and transactions between the two entities eliminated. Revenue Recognition The College s tuition revenues consist of tuition, application and graduation fees and retail sales which consist of bookstore, publication and cafeteria sales. Tuition revenue is deferred and recognized as revenue ratably over the period of instruction. If a student withdraws or drops out, the College follows its refund policy, which provides a 100% refund through the second week, 75% through the third week, 50% through the fourth week, 25% through the fifth week, and no refund thereafter. The College does not recognize revenue for students who enroll but never take a course. Refunds are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period that the student withdraws from a course. If a partial refund is given to a student in accordance with the College refund policy, the portion of the revenue which has been earned by the College is recognized over the remaining period of instruction. Scholarships issued by the College are recorded as a reduction in revenue in the period that the scholarship is issued. Unearned revenues consist of tuition and housing revenues that have not been earned. Cash and Cash Equivalents The College considers all highly liquid marketable securities with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at market value. A certificate of deposit in the amount of $500,000 as of December 31, 2009 was included in cash and cash equivalents. The certificate earned interest at.2% at December 31, 2009 and was redeemed during (7)

10 NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Concentrations of Credit Risk The College maintains cash balances at a national bank which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At times, the College s uninsured cash balances may exceed the maximum FDIC insurance threshold. However, management believes this risk is minimal since the bank is considered sound and is one of the largest financial institutions in the United States. Financial instruments that potentially subject the College to credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable for which no collateral is required. Management believes that the credit risk related to accounts receivable is limited due to the large number and diversity of students that comprise the College s customer base. The College s credit risk with respect to these accounts receivable is mitigated through the participation of a majority of the students in federally funded financial aid programs. Accounts and Loans Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable consist of uncollateralized student obligations due under the College s tuition policy which generally requires tuition payments within five weeks of the beginning of a semester and student loans. No interest is charged on the account receivable balances. During 2010, the College started a loan program which offers students an alternative for those students who might not otherwise qualify for a loan. The loan program consists of either a 12-month option in which no interest is charged or up to a 10-year option in which interest is charged at 8%. The College reduces accounts and loans receivable by a valuation allowance that reflects management's estimate of the amounts that will not be collected because of the inability, failure or refusal of its students to make required payments. The College determines its allowance for doubtful accounts amount based on an analysis of the accounts receivable and loan detail, historical write-off experience, and current economic conditions, recoveries and trends. Accounts past due more than 90 days are individually analyzed for collectibility. When all collection efforts have been exhausted, the accounts are written off against the related allowance. Bad debt expense is recorded as an operating expense in the statements of income. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on a first-in first-out basis, and consist primarily of books and other items sold in the College s bookstore and food items sold in its cafeteria. (8)

11 NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. The College capitalizes assets with a cost over $1,000 and a useful life of more than one year. Depreciation is provided using the straightline method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: Years Buildings and Improvements 39 Leasehold Improvements 5 Equipment, Furniture and Fixtures 5 to 10 Software 3 to 7 Vehicles 5 Website 3 Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized. As items of property or equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operating income. Other Assets Non-Compete Agreements The College capitalizes the costs associated with a non-compete agreement and amortizes the costs over the term of the agreement of two years using the straight-line method. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The College reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The College had no impaired assets or impairment charges in 2010 or Advertising The College expenses the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $449,634 and $578,367, respectively. Income Taxes The College adopted the income tax standard for uncertain tax positions on January 1, The implementation of this standard had no impact on the College s financial statements. The College s 2007 to 2010 tax years are open for examination by the federal and state authorities. (9)

12 NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Income Taxes (Continued) The Company has elected to be taxed under S corporation rules; therefore, it is not taxed as a separate entity. The portion of income or loss derived by the shareholders is included in their individual income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes is included in these financial statements. The entities do not incur income taxes. Instead, they file consolidated federal and state tax returns, with consolidated taxable income included in the tax returns of the parent's shareholders and are taxed accordingly. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the December 31, 2009 financial statements to conform with the December 31, 2010 presentation. These classifications have no effect on retained earnings or net income as previously reported. Subsequent Events The College has reviewed and evaluated subsequent events and transactions for material subsequent events through May 5, 2011, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
