Accounting Comments
Form 10-K for Year ended December 31, 2004
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm - pages 37
and 63
We refer to "Management Report on Effectiveness of Internal
Control
Over Financial Reporting" on page 62 that states management has
assessed the Company`s internal controls over financial reporting
and
has determined that they are effective in conformity with GAAP and
Call Report Instructions as of December 31, 2004. Please provide
us
supplementally with the following information considering the
"Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm" does not refer
to
Call Report Instructions as part of the scope of their audit
regarding management`s assessment of internal controls over
financial
reporting:
1. Discuss the consideration given to Section II.H.4 of SEC
Commission Release No. 33-8238, "Final Rule: Management`s Reports
on
Internal Control over Financial Reporting and Certification of
Disclosure in Exchange Act Period Reports" which states that when
management prepares a single report to satisfy both the FDICs and
the
Commissions requirements it must:
* State its responsibility for complying with laws and regulations
related to safety and soundness designated by the FDIC; and
* Provide an assessment as to the effectiveness of the related
internal controls over financial reporting.
2. Tell us supplementally the consideration given by your
independent
accountants to the reporting guidance in the following
authoritative
literature:
* PCAOB Staff Interpretive Response to Question 31 of PCAOB
Auditing
Standard No. 2 which states that when a single management report
is
prepared that satisfies both the requirements of FDICIA and
Section
404 of the Sarabanes Oxley Act the report of the auditor must
address
the requirements of both sets of rules.
* The related statement in Section II.H.4 of SEC Commission
Release
No. 33-8238 that states, for purposes of the attestation report,
financial reporting must encompass both financials statements
prepared in accordance with GAAP and those prepared for regulator
reporting purposes.
