<br />Proprietary funds. The City of Hugo maintains one type of proprietary fund — enterprise funds.

<br />government -wide financial statements. The City of Hugo uses enterprise funds to account for its sewer

<br />financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide information
<br />for the sewer and water fund, which is considered to be a major fund of the City of Hugo. The basic
<br />proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 27-29 and 78 of this report.

<br />GOVERNMENT -WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
<br />As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial
<br />position. In the case of the City of Hugo, assets exceeded liabilities by $74,609,968 at the close of the
<br />most recent fiscal year. A significant portion of the City of Hugo's net position (57 percent) reflects its
<br />investment in capital assets (e.g. land, buildings, vehicles, and equipment), less any related debt used
<br />to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The balance of the City's net investment in capital
<br />assets increased 8 percent from the prior year due primarily to additional infrastructure completed by
<br />the City during the year as well as debt payments. The City of Hugo uses its capital assets to provide
<br />services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City
<br />of Hugo's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the
<br />resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets
<br />themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
