Learning Objectives
• Learn about what a CAFR is and what entities prepare a CAFR and why
• Identify the components of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR).
• Gain a deeper understanding of what information is presented within each CAFR component

What is a CAFR?
• An annual financial report that is more “comprehensive” than financial statements required by GAAP.
• CAFR = Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
![Page 5: Basic Overview of the CAFR](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568161b7550346895dd1841f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Must Local Governments Prepare a CAFR?
• Only basic financial statements are required for a GAAP presentation
• Many government finance officers prepare a CAFR as a result of their desire to participate in the GFOA's program, the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting– Among other requirements, CAFR must be postmarked or
emailed no later than six months after the end of the government's fiscal year to be eligible to participate in the program
• GFOA checklist: http://www.gfoa.org/downloads/GENERALPURPOSECHECKLIST2011.pdf
