To the City Council of the City of Chicago, Illinois

We have examined the balance sheet of Chicago-0 'Hare Interna- tional Airport as of December 31, 1977, and the related statements of revenue and expense, changes in reserves, changes in contributions, and changes in retained earnings for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We also made reference to the authorizing ordinance to determine that accounting transactions reflected in the attached financial statements were within the scope of the authority.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements, together with our notes pertaining thereto, present fairly the financial position of Chicago-0 'Hare International Airport as of December 31, 1977 and the results of its operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and, except as stated in Note 1C3 , the applicable provisions of the Revenue Bond Ordinance, applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

C. Fixed Assets (Continued) :

At December 31, 1977 the gross amount of those assets acquired with money from other sources is $120,526,403.14 less allowances for depreciation of $27,972,031.80. The net amount of these assets is reflected by source in the "Contributions" section of the Balance Sheet.

1. Fixed assets acquired with City money include capitalized interest for the use of City money. Interest is capitalized from the commencement of the land improvement or construc- tion activity through the year of completion.

2. Fixed assets acquired with State and Federal money represent grants received that are reimbursements for fixed assets acquired with City money of $2,218,653.16 and Public Utility, Concessionaire and Airline money of $4,302,3 54.24. These grants are recognized only as received. As of December 31, 1977 a maximum of $26,381,444.62 may be realized in future periods from such grants.

3. Fixed assets acquired with Public Utility, Concessionaire and Airline money are comprised of direct reimbursements and amounts expended directly and indirectly from operating revenues. The Revenue Bond Ordinance does not allow the expenditure of operating revenues for capital improvements. However, the Airline Representative has agreed to substan- tially all of these expenditures. Using operating revenues for this purpose has the effect of raising flight fees.

In accordance with the Revenue Bond Ordinance, all replace- ments of vehicles, furnishings, signs and other equipment are expensed during the year of acquisition.

D. Depreciation and Amortization;

Depreciation on Buildings and Other Facilities is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the individual assets. Depreciation charges are begun in the year following the year of acquisition or completion. Deferred Engineering Costs with an original balance of $1,226,701.79 are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 2 5 years.
