Shareholders and Board of Trustees
BRT Realty Trust
Great Neck, New York
We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses of the property located at 4740 Highway 51 N, Southhaven, MS ("Civic Center I") for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses 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 the statement of revenues and certain expenses that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the statement of revenues and certain expenses based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenues and certain expenses is free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the statement of revenues and certain expenses. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the statement of revenues and certain expenses, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to Civic Center I's preparation and fair presentation of the statement of revenues and certain expenses 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 controls. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the revenues and certain expenses.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expenses referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the statement of revenues and certain expenses of Civic Center I for the year ended December 31, 2015, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
