You have requested that we undertake a review and analysis of the Guarantor and provide you with our opinion of their financial condition as related to the proposed resolution and the obligation of the associated revenue bonds. We are pleased to comply with this request. We have reviewed the Guarantor's audited financial statement for each of the years ended June 30, 1976-80. As of June 30, 1980, the Guarantor's stockholders equity was $3.05 million. Net earnings for the year then ended was $633,499. Earnings for the five (5) years reviewed .have averaged $430,000.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 1980 AND 1979 A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Principles of consolidation The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Magnolia Seed Company of Houston and Magnolia Seed Company of Lubbock. All intercompany profits, transactions, and balances have been elimi- nated. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first -in, first -out method) or market. Property, plant, and equipment Provision for depreciation has been made at annual rates based upon the estimated useful livesof the assets, generally four. years for automobiles and trucks and five to ten years for furni- ture and fixtures and machinery and equipment, using both straight- line and declining balance methods. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lease term (10 years) which is shorter than the useful life. The buildings are being depreciated over their esti- mated useful lives using the straight-line method for the used building (20 -year life) and the 150% declining balance method for the new building (30 -year life). Intanqible assets Intangible assets include costs in excess of net assets of businesses acquired and the cost of a noncompete agreement. Cost of $79,012 in excess of net assets of a business acquired in 1978 is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 20 years. In accordance with accounting principles in effect at the date of the acquisition of another business, cost of $100,294 in excess of net assets of the business acquired is not being amortized because Company management is of the opinion that no diminution in value has occurred. The noncompete agreement with an original cost of $50,000 is being amortized over the term of the agreement (three years). 6 ToudieRass,,s,Q MAGIOLIA SEED, HARDWARE & IMPLEMENT CO.
