The Government is responsible for its gross receipts tax collections records for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Government has agreed to and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate to meet the intended purpose of assisting in evaluating the Government’s assertion that the Government’s gross receipts tax collections for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, are accurate and complete. This report may not be suitable for any other purpose. The procedures performed may not address all the items of interest to a user of this report and may not meet the needs of all users of this report and, as such, users are responsible for determining whether the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. We make no representation regarding the sufficiency of the procedures described below, either for the purpose for which the report has been requested or for any other purpose. The procedures and the associated findings are as follows: 1. We read Sections 43, 44, and 45 of Subtitle 1 of Title 33 of the Virgin Islands’ Code, applicable to the imposition and collection of gross receipts taxes. 2. We obtained the monthly gross receipts tax collections for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, from the monthly "Unaudited General Fund Statement of Revenue" prepared by the Revenue Audit Division of the Government’s Department of Finance. 3. We obtained from management of the Government, the First Bank (the Collecting Agent) account statements, which include deposits of the monthly gross receipts tax revenue collected for each of the three months in the quarter ended March 31, 2025. 4. For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, we obtained the "General Fund Daily Distribution Worksheets" prepared by the Revenue Audit Division of the Government’s Department of Finance. We then added the total daily gross receipts tax collections as presented in the "General Fund Daily Distribution Worksheets" for each of the three months in the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and compared the sum of those amounts to the monthly gross receipts tax collections as presented in the monthly "Unaudited General Fund Statement of Revenue" reports and observed the following: 3 Gross Receipts Tax Collections Month 2025 Unaudited General Fund Statement of Revenue General Fund Daily Distribution Worksheets Difference January $ 18,320,707 $ 18,409,201 $ (88,494) February 22,109,991 22,159,645 (49,654) March 16,445,246 16,561,619 (116,373) $ 56,875,944 $ 57,130,465 $ (254,521) The Government has represented that the differences observed between the sum of the total daily gross receipts tax collections as presented in the "General Fund Daily Distribution Worksheets" and the monthly gross receipts tax collections presented in the "Unaudited General Fund Statement of Revenue" are due to checks returned by the banks for non-sufficient funds (NSF) that are reflected in the "Unaudited General Fund Statement of Revenue" as a reduction in the gross receipts tax collections.
