These primary government financial statements are the responsibility ofthe county's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these primary government financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General ofthe 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. A primary government is a legal entity or body politic and includes all funds, organizations, institutions, agencies, departments and offices that are not legally separate. Such legally separate entities are referred to as component units. In our opinion, the primary government financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position ofthe primary government of Perry County, Mississippi, as of September 30, 1997, and the results of its operations and cash flows of its Enterprise Fund Type for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, the primary government financial statements, because they do not include the financial data of component units of Perry County, Mississippi, do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of Perry County, Mississippi, as of September 30, 1997, and the results of its operations and cash flows of its Enterprise Fund Type for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. 4 In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated October 1, 1998, on our consideration of Perry County, Mississippi's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants.
