To the Board of Directors
Business Development Corporation
of South Carolina
Columbia, S.C. 29221
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Business
Development Corporation of South Carolina as of September 30, 1995,
and the related statements of income, retained earnings, and cash
flows for the periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, in
accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review
Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. All information included in these financial statements
is the representation of the management of Business Development
Corporation of South Carolina.
A review consists principally of inquiries of Company personnel and
analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as
a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the accompanying September 31, 1995 and 1994
financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1994, were
audited by us and we expressed an unqualified opinion on them in our
report dated January 19, 1995, but we have not performed any
auditing procedures since that date.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION OF SOUTH CAROLINA
COLUMBIA, S.C.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
Note 1. Organization
The corporation was established by the General Assembly of the
State of South Carolina to promote business development and to assist
new business and industry in the state by making loans or assisting in
other business transactions.
Any financial institution can be a member in the corporation and is
obligated as a member to make loan commitments to the corporation.
Loans are made by the members based on their commitment in proportion
to their capital as it relates to the capital of all members combined
who have committed.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Loans Receivable
The corporation provides an allowance for doubtful accounts which,
in the opinion of management, is adequate to cover possible loan
losses. Loans may be partially sold to investors with the corporation
retaining the obligation to service the entire debt. The balance of
loans receivable of $7,364,988 at September 30, 1995 and $7,017,269 at
December 31, 1994 is the portion of the obligations retained by
Business Development Corporation of South Carolina.
Furniture and Fixtures
The corporation carries fixed assets at cost. The straight-line
depreciation method is used with useful lives varying from five to ten
years.
Note 3. Income Taxes
The corporation is exempt from South Carolina income taxes. For
federal income tax purposes temporary differences in the basis of
assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax
reporting occur. One difference is the use of varying methods and
periods to calculate depreciation. Also the provision for doubtful
accounts is used for financial statement purposes, whereas the direct
charge-off method is used for writing off accounts as they become
worthless for income tax purposes.
The net deferred tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets
include the following at September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994:
Excess of Tax over Financial
Accounting Depreciation $ (5,299)
Excess of Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts for Financial
Accounting over Tax 35,255
29,956

organization known as Certified Development Corporation of South Carolina
(CDCSC). This new organization will assist in making loans through Small
Business Administration loan programs. For the period ended September 30,

both organizations are substantially the same.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
Note 12. Financial Instruments
(A) Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets for cash and
cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates
fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these
financial instruments. The carrying amount for loans receivable and long-
term debt approximates fair value because the underlying instruments are
variable rate notes that fluctuate with the prime rate.
(B) Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist of loans receivable. All loans are
made to borrowers located in the State of South Carolina. Loans are
generally secured by assets, personal guarantees and are generally
partially guaranteed by the Small Business Administration.
