handle is hein.gao/gaobacmjw0001 and id is 1 raw text is: United States General Accounting Office Washington, D.C. 205481 Accounting and Information Management Division B-280212 June 16, 1998 The Honorable Henry J. Hyde Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary House of Representatives Subject: Federally Chartered Corporation: Review of the Financial Statement Audit Report for the American Gold Star Mothers, Incororated, for Fiscal Year 1997 Dear Mr. Chairman: As requested, we reviewed the audit report covering the financial statements of the American Gold Star Mothers, Incorporated, a federally chartered corporation, for the year ended June 30, 1997. The corporation was established in 1928 for the purpose of perpetuating the ideals of Americanism for which members' relatives fought and died. Federally chartered corporations are required under 36 U.S.C. 1102-1103 to present the corporation's assets and liabilities and reasonable detail on the corporation's income and expenses in annual financial statements, obtain an annual financial audit by an independent public accountant, and submit the auditor's report and the corporation's financial statements to the Congress not later than 6 months following the close of the corporation's fiscal year. The objective of our review was to determine whether the audit report complied with the financial reporting requirements of the law. In carrying out our work, we reviewed the corporation's financial statements and the accompanying notes, performed certain analytical procedures related to information presented in the financial statements, reviewed the auditor's report, and made inquiries to corporation officials or the auditor as deemed necessary. We did not review the auditor's working papers. During our review, nothing came to our attention that would cause us to believe that the financial reporting requirements of the law have not been met.
