Management’s Discussion and Analysis
This section of Dakota State University’s annual financial report presents management’s
discussion and analysis of the University’s financial operations during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2013. The discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying financial statements and footnotes. The accuracy of the financial statements,
footnote disclosures and discussion are the responsibility of University management.
Reporting Entity
Dakota State University is one of six public universities under the control of the South
Dakota Board of Regents. The public universities are considered a component unit of the
State of South Dakota and are reported as such in the State’s comprehensive annual financial
report.
The financial operations of Dakota State University are audited as a part of the State of South
Dakota. An audit opinion is not issued on the individual statements of the University, but
rather on the audited Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the State of South Dakota.
Using the Annual Report
The accompanying statements have been prepared in accordance with Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 35, Basic Financial Statements – and
Management’s Discussion and Analysis – for Public Colleges and Universities.
The statements required by GASB include the Statement of Net Position, Statement of
Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and the Statement of Cash Flows. The
statements are prepared under the accrual basis of accounting where revenues are recognized
when the service is provided and expenses are recognized when a liability is incurred
regardless of when the exchange of cash takes place.
The Statement of Net Position reports the difference in assets and liabilities and is one way of
measuring the University’s financial position. Non-financial measurements such as
enrollment and condition of the facilities serving the students should also be taken into
consideration.
The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position presents revenues earned
and expenses incurred during the year. Revenues and expenses are considered operating or
non-operating. In accordance with GASB requirements, state appropriations have been
classified as non-operating revenues resulting in a net operating loss being reported. The
financial statements also include an allowance for depreciation expense, which is the
amortization of the cost of a capital asset over its estimated useful life.
Page 2
The Statement of Cash Flows presents information related to cash inflows and outflows.
These transactions are classified as operating, non-operating, capital and investing activities.
Financial Highlights
From the prior year, current assets increased $193,000, 2.3%. The main increase is cash
balances as the University makes an effort to increase reserves for fluctuations in enrollment,
special projects or enhanced program offerings. Non-current assets decreased $988,000,
-3.7%. There was a $600,000 increase in capital assets but this was offset by a decrease in
depreciation expense of $1,600,000.
Total liabilities decreased by $440,000, -3.19%, between FY12 and FY13. Current liabilities
decreased by $88,000 and non-current liabilities decreased by $352,000 with the bonds
payable amount being $354,000 of the non-current decrease.

service represent assets that the University may only use for allowable activities related to
each of those funds. Unrestricted assets may be used for the general operations of the
University.

revenues the university earns through its operation, such as tuition, fees, auxiliary services,
and grants and contracts. Federal grants and contract revenue was down $579,000 and self-
support tuition was down $140,000 due to a reduced rate for general education courses and
the University Center in Sioux Falls.
Non-operating revenues are revenues realized through appropriations or non-operating
activities such as investment income. Non-operating revenues increased by $435,000.
General funds increased by $514,000 and HEFF funds decreased by $88,000.
Operating expenses increased by $115,000. There was a $911,000 increase in personal
services and decreases of $942,000 in contractual services and supplies & materials. The
decreased revenue in federal grants and contracts of $597,000 is reflected in the expense
decrease for the same funds.

The Statement of Cash Flows presents information related to cash inflows summarized by
operating, non-capital financing, capital financing and related investing activities. This helps
measure the ability to meet financial obligations as they mature. Major sources of cash
include: 1) funds from students for tuition, fees, auxiliaries, and federal grants, $25 million,
in the operating activities category, and 2) general appropriations, $8.8 million, in the non
capital financing activities. The largest payments were for salaries and benefits, $21 million,
and payments to vendors for contracted services and supplies, $9.6 million.

The following is an illustration of cash balances as of June 30, 2013:
Unrestricted cash on hand as of June 30 each year is used for summer salaries, benefits and
monthly operating expenses. Cash receipts during the summer are relatively low so the
university must maintain a sufficient cash balance to meet obligations until proceeds from
tuition and fees are received in the fall. Restricted cash can only be used in accordance with
the source of the cash and grant funds are typically received on a reimbursement basis. Plant
funds are to be used for long-term maintenance of revenue buildings and not for normal day-
to-day operating expenses.
Enrollment Information
Dakota State University’s Fall headcount and full-time equivalent enrollment increased
slightly by .6% and .7% respectively over the prior year.

DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2013
DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Basis of Presentation:
The financial statements have been prepared and are presented as required by GASB Statement No. 34,
Basic Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis for State and Local Governments
and GASB Statement No. 35, Basic Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis for
Public Colleges and Universities. The financial statement presentation required by GASB provides a
comprehensive, entity-wide perspective of the University’s assets, liabilities, net assets, revenues, expenses,
changes in net assets, cash flows, and replaces the fund-group perspective previously required. GASB
Statement No. 39, Determining Whether Certain Organizations Are Component Units, was implemented
for fiscal year 2004. The provisions of this statement determined that the Dakota State University
Foundation should be reported as a component unit of the university and the Foundation Statements have
been presented following the statements of the university.
B. Reporting Entity:
Dakota State University is one of six public institutions of higher education governed by the South
Dakota Board of Regents. The University is a component unit of the State of South Dakota and is
included in the general-purpose financial statements of the State of South Dakota.
C. Basis of Accounting:
The University has adopted the accrual basis of accounting for preparing its annual financial statements as
required by generally accepted accounting principles. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenue is
recognized when earned and expenditures when an obligation is incurred. For reporting purposes, the
University is considered a special-purpose government engaged only in business-type activities.
D. Fund Accounting:
In order to insure observance of the limitations and restrictions placed on the use of the resources
available to the University, the accounts of the University are maintained according to the principles of
fund accounting. This is the procedure by which resources for various purposes are classified for
accounting and reporting purposes into fund accounts that are maintained in accordance with activities or
objectives specified by donors, governmental appropriations, granting agencies, and other outside sources
or regulations.
Separate accounts are maintained for each fund; however, in the accompanying statements, all funds have
been combined for reporting purposes.
E. Accounts Receivable:
Accounts Receivable consists of funds owed to various University departments from external sources.
Accounts receivable include funds owed from students for tuition & fee charges as well as expenditures
made on grants for which reimbursement has not been received. The University used the direct write-off
method for uncollectible receivables.
F. Notes Receivable:
Notes receivable consist of those receivables in connection with the Perkins Loan program.
G. Investments:
Investments are reported at cost. Market values are not readily determinable for funds on deposit with the
State Treasurer. These funds are pooled by the State Investment Council for investment purposes and
investment earnings are returned to participating funds annually.
H. Inventories:
Inventories of supplies are reported using the FIFO method or estimated value. Inventories are reflected
as current assets on the statement of net assets.
I. Capital Assets:
Capital assets are reported at historical cost. The cost of a capital asset includes capitalized interest and
ancillary charges necessary to place the asset into its intended location and condition for use. Capital
assets includes land, improvements to land, easements, buildings, building improvements, vehicles,
machinery, equipment, infrastructure, and all other tangible or intangible assets that are used in operations
and that have an initial useful lives extending beyond a single reporting period. Capital assets are
depreciated using the straight line method of depreciation over their estimated useful lives and are
reported net of accumulated depreciation in the statement of net assets.
J. Net Assets:
Net assets are classified according to external donor restrictions or availability of assets for satisfaction of
University obligations. Invested in capital assets net of related debt represents the net value of capital
assets (property, plant and equipment) less the debt incurred to acquire or construct the assets.
K. Scholarship allowances and student aid:
Tuition and fee revenues are reported net of any scholarship discounts and allowances on the Statement of
Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Assets.
L. Revenue recognition:
The University uses accrual basis accounting & therefore recognizes revenues when earned.
M. Operating and non-operating revenues:
Operating revenues consist of transactions resulting in the sales of product or service, grants or contracts
related to exchange transactions, program loans, reimbursement of operating transactions, and indirect
cost recovered on grants and contracts related to exchange transactions. Non-operating activities are
generally activities considered non-capital financing, capital and related financing and investing activities
for purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows. General fund appropriations are reported as non-operating
revenues.
2. Cash and cash equivalents:
For reporting purposes, cash includes cash on hand, cash in local banks, and cash in the State Treasury.
Cash equivalents are reported at fair value. Cash equivalents include short-term investments with original
maturities of three months or less.
3. Retirement Plan
The South Dakota Retirement System (SDRS) is a cost-sharing, multiple employer public employee
retirement system (PERS) established to provide retirement benefits for employees of the state and local
governments. The SDRS is considered part of the State of South Dakota financial reporting entity and is
included in the state's financial report as a pension trust fund.
Covered employees are required by state statute to contribute 6 percent of their salary to the plan, while
public safety and judicial employees contribute at 8 percent and 9 percent, respectively. State statue also
requires the employer to contribute and amount equal to the employee’s contributions.
4. State Appropriations
The State General Fund appropriation for fiscal year 2013 was $8,864,410.
5. Tuition and Fees
The University collects and remits tuition and selected fees to the Board of Regents Tuition and Fee pool.
Only the amount returned to the University as a tuition allocation from the fund is reported as revenue.
6. Endowment and Similar Funds
The assets of the Endowment and similar funds administered by the Department of School and Public
Lands have not been included in the financial statements because the University does not actively
participate in the administration of the funds.
7. Related parties:
The financial statements do not include the assets, liabilities or fund balances of affiliated organizations,
whose financial statements are separately audited.
8. Funds held for others:
Funds held for others consist of federal loan program balances and funds held for student organizations.
Assets of the federal loan program are student loans receivable and the funds held for student
organizations are principally cash.
