To the Honorable, the Assembly:
We have completed a financial audit of WHA Radio, as requested by the University of Wisconsin-Extension to fulfill the audit requirements of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The Corporation requires audited financial statements of public broadcasting entities to determine future funding levels.
WHA Radio is licensed to the University of Wisconsin System's Board of Regents and is operated by the University of Wisconsin-Extension. WHA Radio earned $11.2 million in revenues during fiscal year 2010-11, including state support, member contributions, funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and various other grants.
Our audit report contains WHA Radio's financial statements and related notes as of and for the years ended June 30, 2011, and June 30, 2010. We were able to issue an unqualified independent auditor's report on these statements. In our report on internal control and compliance, we note that the University of Wisconsin-Extension needs to take steps to ensure that it is fully analyzing and applying proper accounting treatment to WHA Radio's and WHA Television's financial activities in a timely manner.
We appreciate the courtesy and cooperation extended to us by University of Wisconsin-Extension staff during the audit.
Respectfully submitted,
Joe Chrisman
State Auditor
