    To the Citizens, Governor, and Members of the Legislature of the State of Tennessee


    As part of its responsibility under Tennessee Code Annotated 4-3-1007 to maintain a system of
    general accounts embracing all the financial transactions of state government, the Department of
    Finance and Administration is pleased to submit to you the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report
    (ACFR) for the State of Tennessee’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Prepared in accordance with
    Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) applicable to governments as prescribed by the
    Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the objective of this report is to present a clear
    picture of our government as a single comprehensive reporting entity.

    Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of this report,
    including all disclosures, rests with the management of state government and this department. The
    data and information presented is believed to be accurate in all material respects, and all disclosures
    that are necessary to enable the reader to obtain a thorough understanding of the state’s financial
    activities have been included.

    The aforementioned belief is based on a comprehensive framework of internal control that has been
    established by state government management to provide a reasonable basis for asserting
    Tennessee’s financial statements are free of material misstatement. The concept of reasonable
    assurance recognizes that the cost of a system of internal and operational control should not exceed
    the benefits derived and recognizes that the evaluation of these factors necessarily requires
    estimates and judgements by management.

    The State of Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury, Department of Audit, considered by federal and
    state government to be independent auditors, has examined the accompanying financial statements,
    and issued an unmodified opinion. Their report is located at the front of the financial section of this
    report. We acknowledge the Department of Audit’s staff for their many contributions to the
    preparation of this ACFR.

    The audit of the financial statements of Tennessee is part of a broader, federally mandated Single
    Audit designed to meet the special needs of federal grantor agencies. The Single Audit Report for the

                                 Independent Auditor’s Report


Members of the General Assembly
The Honorable Bill Lee, Governor


Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and
the aggregate remaining fund information of the State of Tennessee, as of and for the year ended
June 30, 2021, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the
State’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this
includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the
preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control
relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express
no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used




16                                                                                  Auditor's Report
and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinions. Tennessee statutes, in addition to audit responsibilities, entrust certain other
responsibilities to the Comptroller of the Treasury. Those responsibilities include serving as a
member of the board of directors of the Board of Claims, Chairs of Excellence, Local Education
Insurance Committee, Local Government Insurance Committee, State Building Commission, State
Funding Board, State Insurance Committee, Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System, Pension
Stabilization Reserve Trust, Tennessee College Savings Trust, Tennessee Housing Development
Agency, Tennessee Local Development Authority, Tennessee Student Assistance Corporation,
and the Tennessee State School Bond Authority. We do not believe that the Comptroller’s service
in this capacity affected our ability to conduct an independent audit of the State of Tennessee.

Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate
discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund
information of the State of Tennessee as of June 30, 2021, and the changes in financial position
and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 4, the state implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board
Statement (GASBS) 84, Fiduciary Activities, during the year ended June 30, 2021. Our opinion
is not modified with respect to this matter.

As discussed in Note 5, the Tennessee Retiree Group Trust investment pool has investments valued
at $15.8 billion, whose fair values have been estimated by management in the absence of readily
determinable fair values. These investments make up 0.2% of net position of the general fund,
20.3% of net position of pension and other employee benefit trust funds, 23.5% of net position of
investment trust funds, and 0.1% of net position of component units. In addition, the financial
statements of the University of Tennessee, a discretely presented component unit, include
investments valued at $597.3 million (5.7% of total component unit net position), whose fair values
have been estimated by management in the absence of readily determinable fair values.
Management’s estimates are based on information provided by the fund managers or the general
partners. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management’s discussion and analysis and other required supplementary information listed in the
accompanying table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such
information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board, which considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for
placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical
context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and
comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic
Auditor's Report                                                                                     17
financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial
statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because
the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide
any assurance.

Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the State of Tennessee’s basic financial statements. The supplementary
information and supplementary schedules listed in the accompanying table of contents are
presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from, and
relates directly to, the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial
statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of
the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and
reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to
prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other
additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The introductory section and statistical section
listed in the accompanying table of contents are presented for purposes of additional analysis and
are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has not been subjected
to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly,
we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we will also issue our report dated December
27, 2021, on our consideration of the State of Tennessee’s internal control over financial reporting
and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant
agreements and other matters in the Tennessee Single Audit Report. The purpose of that report is
to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and
the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting
or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the State of Tennessee’s internal control over
financial reporting and compliance.

manufacturer (OEM) with operations in Tennessee,
joining Nissan, General Motors and Volkswagen.

Through a joint venture, Ford and SK Innovation will
invest $5.6 billion to build a 3,600-acre mega campus
called Blue Oval City on the Memphis Regional Megasite,
where production of next generation all-electric F-Series
trucks will begin in 2025. The project will result in the
creation of 5,800 new jobs in West Tennessee.

Blue Oval City will be designed to be the largest, most
advanced and most efficient automotive production
campus in Ford’s history. The campus will include the
Ford assembly plant, a supplier park and a battery
manufacturing plant operated by BlueOvalSK, Ford and
SK Innovation’s joint venture. The site will become a
vertically integrated ecosystem with key suppliers and
battery manufacturing on the same campus where Ford
will assemble next generation all-electric F-Series trucks.

Economic analysis projects the Ford buildout of the
Memphis Regional Megasite will result in significant job
and gross state product gains. The Center for Economic
Research in Tennessee, a division of the Tennessee
Department of Economic and Community Development,
has determined that the project is projected to generate
the following economic and fiscal impacts. Annual
projections reflect estimates for the first year during
which the project becomes fully operational.

     •   The project is anticipated to generate more than
         27,000 new jobs, both directly and indirectly, to
         support the site’s operations. This will result in
         more than $1.02 billion in annual earnings.
     •   This project is anticipated to contribute $3.5
         billion each year to Tennessee’s gross state
         product.
     •   This project is also expected to generate
         temporary construction benefits including $5.6
         billion spent on land, buildings, and other real
         property improvements. Additionally, more than
         32,000 jobs are expected to support the
         construction period, with around $1.87 billion in
         salaries related to construction activity.

         Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position are different because:

              Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and therefore are not
               reported in the funds.

              Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and therefore are
               unavailable in the funds. In addition, other miscellaneous adjustments that are not reported in
               the governmental funds balance sheet but are reported in the statement of net position.

              Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of various internal operations
               to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of internal service funds are included in the
               governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position.

              Resources and obligations related to pensions and other postemployment benefits are not available
               nor due and payable, respectively, in the current period and therefore are not reported in the funds.


              Long-term liabilities, other than pension and other postemployment benefits and including bonds
               payable, are not due and payable in the current period and therefore are not reported in the funds.

                                Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues,
                               Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances of
                              Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities
                                         For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021
                                                (Expressed in Thousands)




Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds                                               $     3,917,897

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Activities are
 different because:


     Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the Statement
       of Activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as
       depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded
       depreciation in the current year.                                                                     977,483


     Net effect of revenues reported on the accrual basis in the Statement of Activities
       that do not provide current financial resources and thus are not reported as
       revenues in the funds until available.                                                              (167,210)

     The issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds, commercial paper) provides current
       financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal
       of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds.
       Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental
       funds report the effect of premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first
       issued, whereas these amounts are amortized over the life of the debt in the Statement
       of Activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in treatment of long-term
       debt and related items.                                                                               104,032


     Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the
       use of current financial resources and therefore are not reported as
       expenditures in governmental funds.                                                                     1,200

     Internal service funds are used by management to charge the cost of certain activities,
       such as insurance and telecommunications, to individual funds. The net revenue
       (expense) of internal service funds is reported with governmental activities.                        (86,385)

Changes in net position of governmental activities                                                   $     4,747,017

NOTE 6
Fair Value Measurements
A. Primary Government
The fair value of assets held at June 30, 2021, represents the price that would be received were the asset to be sold or the
liability transferred in an orderly transaction between market participants. Assets held are categorized for fair value
measurement within the fair value hierarchy established by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The
hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset and gives the highest priority to
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

investment companies and use of a third-party investment manager (US agencies), use of a third-party investment
manager (US Treasuries), price quotes for identical or similar assets in non-active markets (corporate bonds), use of
third-party pricing services and guidance provided by custodians and trading counterparties for fair value estimates
(mutual bond funds and mutual equity funds). Assets classified in Level 3 are valued based on modeling techniques that

Governmental activities include all governmental funds and internal service funds. Typically, agencies accounted for in
the general fund, internal service funds, and special revenue funds liquidate compensated absences, OPEB and pension
liabilities. Claims and judgments are obligations of the highway fund (special revenue fund), risk management fund
(internal service fund) and the general fund. Typically, pollution remediation is liquidated from the general fund and
highway fund.

2. Budgetary process

The law requires the Governor to submit a recommended budget to the General Assembly annually. Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent
with generally accepted accounting principles for the departments in the general fund and the special revenue funds (except Fraud and Economic Crime,
Agricultural Promotion Boards, Opioid Abatement Fund and Tennessee Promise Scholarship Endowment Fund, included in the Education Trust Fund),
and for the debt service fund. The General Assembly enacts the budget through passage of specific departmental appropriations, the sum of which may
not exceed estimated revenues. Before signing the Appropriations Act, the Governor may veto or reduce any specific appropriation, subject to legislative
override. Once passed and signed, the budget becomes the state's financial plan for the coming year.

Budgetary control is maintained at the department level. Budget revisions during the year, reflecting program changes or intradepartmental transfers of
an administrative nature, may be affected with certain executive and legislative branch approval.

Generally, appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year. It is the state's budgetary practice to appropriate matching dollars for jointly funded projects
in the year of federal apportionment for the highway fund and these appropriations do not lapse at year-end but are reappropriated for subsequent year
expenditure. There were no outstanding encumbrances reported as of June 30, 2021. In order to provide sufficient funding for several programs during
the year, supplemental appropriations of $102.7 million were required.

                      (1)            The increase in expenses in the employment security program between fiscal years 2019 and 2020 is due to the extra benefits
                                     provided to the unemployed in response to the pandemic.

                      (2)            The increase in operating grants and contributions for business-type activities between fiscal years 2019 and 2020 is primarily
                                     because of the extra benefits provided to the unemployed in response to the pandemic.

                      (3)            The increase in expenses for general government between fiscal years 2020 and 2021 is primarily due to changes made because of the implementation of GASBS 84.
                                     Amounts previously reported in intergovernmental revenue sharing is now reported as general government.

                      (4)            The increase in operating grants and contributions between fiscal years 2020 and 2021 is primarily because of increased

                      (1)            The increase in unrestricted net position between fiscal years 2015 and 2016 is mostly attributable to the increase in cash and cash equivalents
                                     caused by an increase in revenue collections from business and sales taxes.

                                     The increase in unrestricted net position between fiscal years 2016 and 2017 and between 2018 and 2019 is attributable to (1) the increase in
                      (2)            cash and cash equivalents caused by an increase in revenue collections from business and sales taxes. The increase between 2016 and 2017 is
                                     also attributable to a correction of a federal billing issue from fiscal year 2016.

                      (3)            The increase in net investment in capital assets between fiscal years 2017 and 2018 is mostly attributable to an increase in infrastructure.

                      (4)            The increase in unrestricted net position between fiscal years 2020 and 2021 is attributable to the increase in cash and cash equivalents caused by an increase in federal revenue and an increase in tax revenue.

                      (1)         The increase in assigned fund balance for the general fund between fiscal years 2019 and 2020 is primarily because of an increase in
                                  the reserve for supplemental appropriation and an increase in carry forwards. The increase in assigned fund balance between the
                                  fiscal years 2020 and 2021 is primarily because of increases in carry forwards, supplemental appropriations, and the civil defense
                                  reserve.

                      (2)         The increase in unassigned fund balance for the general fund between fiscal years 2020 and 2021 is primarily because of an
                                  increase between the reserve fluctuations and future requirements.
