Blended presentation (not separately presented) is used when the component units are so intertwined with
the primary government that they are, in substance, same as the primary government.
Specifically, the unit is blended if
1 The governing body of the component unit is substantially the same as the primary government and (a) there
is financial benefit / burden relationship or (b) there is common management
2 The services provided are entirely or almost entirely to the primary government (OR) The component's debt
BAE Accounting will be repaid entirely or almost entirely by the primary government.
