REQUEST NO. 109:
The M&S Shared Assets workpapers, tab labeled 12m 63A2020, has a description
stating "Period Ending Dec. 31,2019" but the sheet includes 2020 numbers. Please
explain the discrepancy and how a report ending in December 31,2019 includes 2020
numbers. lf done in error, please provide an updated excel spreadsheet to include
current 2020 numbers through June 3A, 2020. Please also provide supplemental
information through November 30,2020 in your response.
RESPONSE NO.1O9:
ln the referenced workpaper, the report (attached as attachment 1 to this response) was
run as of June 30, 2020 and the information beginning in cells 811 through R46 was
updated without revising the heading in cells b3 through b6. The amounts provided are
correct, the header is incorrect.
Also attached as attachment2to this response is the same reportforthe 12 months
ended November 30,2020. Please note that an error was made in November which
recorded !T Depreciation to Department 424 instead oi 427 as it should have been. A
correcting entry is being made in December and the Company will update this response
through December after closing.
