CHAPTER 18
GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES: SPECIAL FUNDS AND
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
Q18-1 A governmental entity would use a special revenue fund rather than a
general fund when the resources earmarked for the fund, such as federal or state
government grants or special tax levies, are restricted for specific purposes.
Q18-2 Operating budgets are prepared for the general fund, special revenue funds,
and debt service fund. Capital budgets are prepared for the capital projects fund.
Q18-3 Interest on long-term debt is accounted for in the debt service fund for only
the interest that is due and legally payable as an expenditure. Interest is not accrued
on the outstanding balance of the long-term debt.
Q18-4 The major differences between a special revenue fund and an enterprise
fund are
Special Revenue

Commercial type

Q18-5 The basis of accounting used in the proprietary funds is the accrual basis
because the focus of the governmental entity is on capital maintenance and income
determination rather than budgetary spending authority.
Q18-6 The financial statements that must be prepared for the governmental funds
are the balance sheet and the statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in
fund balances. The financial statements that must be prepared for the enterprise
funds are the statement of net assets, the statement of revenues, expenses, and
changes in fund net assets, and the statement of cash flows.

18-1


Q18-7 Proceeds from a bond issue are accounted for as an other financing source
in the fund that issued the bonds. However, some governments have a policy that the
capital projects fund may not keep any bond premium, in which case the bond
premium is typically transferred to a debt service fund. Other financing sources and
uses are reported separately below operations, but above special items, on the
governmental funds’ statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund
balance.
Q18-8 A permanent fund is a governmental fund for which the principal is
maintained, but the income in the fund can be used by the government for its
programs that benefit all of its citizens. The basis of accounting in permanent funds is
the modified accrual method. Private-purpose trust funds are established to benefit
specific individuals or organizations, as specified by the donor. These private-purpose
trust funds may have an expendable principal, or the principal may be nonexpendable. The accrual basis of accounting is used for private-purpose funds. Thus,
a major difference between these funds is the specificity of who the beneficiaries of
the fund are.
Q18-9 GASB 34 specifies that only governmental and enterprise funds determined
to be “major” funds need to be separately disclosed in their own columns in the fund
financial statements. There are two tests to determine which individual governmental
and enterprise funds are considered major if they meet both tests. First, the general
fund is always considered a major fund. The first test is total assets, liabilities,
revenues, or expenditures/expenses of that individual fund are at least 10 percent or
more of the governmental or enterprise category. The second test is that total assets,
liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental or
enterprise fund are at least 5 percent of the total for all governmental and enterprise
funds combined. Any individual funds that are not considered major are aggregated
and presented in a single column. Management may, at any time, separately disclose
even those non-major funds for which they feel the additional disclosure will provide
information valuable to the readers of the financial statements.
Q18-10 Because the measurement focus of the governmental funds is on current
financial resources, revenue would be recognized in the governmental funds only if
the donated items are available to finance expenditures of the current period, For
example, donated land would be included in contribution revenue of a governmental
fund if the land was sold, or the government has entered into a contract to sell the
land, and that the proceeds from the sale will be available to finance expenditures of
the current period. However, a donation to a governmental fund, in the form of
financial resources or capital assets, that has a restriction imposed by the donor
which makes the donation unavailable to finance current expenditures, is not
included in the governmental fund’s financial statements. Of course, on the
government-wide statement of activities, all donations would be shown, at fair value
on a separate line below general revenues. Specifically, endowment and permanent
fund principal donations are reported below general revenues and above special and
extraordinary items.
On the governmental funds financial statements, special and extraordinary items
are reported below operations, but above the net change in fund balance line, in the
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance. Special items are
those significant transactions within the control of management that are either
unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence. Extraordinary items are transactions or
events that are both unusual and infrequent in occurrence.
Q18-11 Agency funds must be self-balancing with assets equalling liabilities.
Therefore, agency funds do not have a net fund balance.

18-2


Q18-12 Component units are separate government entities for which the primary
government is financially accountable. The financial presentation of these component
units is dependent on the separability from the primary government. If the component
unit is virtually inseparable, then the component unit’s financial information is blended
into the primary government’s financial statements. However, if the component unit is
distinguishable, and has its own taxing authority, then the component unit’s financial
information is presented in a separate column in the government-wide financial
statements.
Q18-13 Two reconciliation schedules are required by GASB 34. The first reconciles
the fund balances reported in the governmental funds to the net assets of
governmental activities reported on the government-wide financial statements. For
example, internal service funds are not a governmental fund, but the accounts for
internal service funds are blended into the governmental activities that are reported
on the government-wide financial statements. The second reconciliation schedule
reconciles the net change in fund balances reported in the governmental funds
statements to the change in net assets reported in the government-wide financial
statements. These two reconciliation schedules are required by GASB 34 to be
presented either on the face of the fund financial statements or in a separate
schedule immediately following the fund financial statements.
Q18-14 The budgetary comparison schedule reports, for the general fund and any
other governmental fund that has a legally adopted budget, the initially approved
budget, the final budget of the year, and the actual amounts, for each line item in the
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance. A variance
column may also be used to compare the actual against the final budget. This
budgetary comparison schedule is part of the required supplementary information
(RSI) required by GASB 34. GASB 41 amended GASB 34 for those governments
that do not use the general fund and special revenue fund structure specified in
GASB 34 for their budgetary purposes. GASB 41 specified that those governments
with significant perspective differences should provide a budgetary comparison
schedule in the RSI based on the structure the government used for its legally
adopted budget.
Q18-15 The government-wide financial statements present the infrastructure assets,
such as roads, bridges, tunnels, sewer and water systems, etc., and other long-term
assets of the government entity, such as buildings, equipment, vehicles, etc. The
capital assets should be reported at historical cost or fair value at the time of
donation, if donated. Because the basis of accounting for the government-wide
financial statements is the accrual method, depreciation is recorded on the other
long-term assets and these are reported net of depreciation. For infrastructure assets,
the governmental entity may elect to use a modified approach in which depreciation is
not recorded. The modified approach requires an assessment of the current condition
of the infrastructure assets and an estimate of the annual amount required to
maintain and preserve the infrastructure assets. In addition, the government-wide
financial statements present the general long-term debt obligations of the
governmental entity at the present value of the debt principal and future interest, just
as computed under the accrual basis of accounting that is used for commercial
entities.

18-3


SOLUTIONS TO CASES
C18-1 Basis of Accounting and Reporting Issues
a. In the accrual basis of accounting, revenue should be recognized in the
accounting period in which it is earned and becomes measurable.
In the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenue should be recognized in the
accounting period in which it becomes both measurable and available to finance
expenditures of the fiscal period. "Available" means collectible within the current
period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay current period liabilities.
b. For the general fund, the modified accrual basis of accounting should be used
because it is a governmental fund, which is, in essence, an accounting segregation of
financial resources.
For the special revenue fund, the modified accrual basis of accounting should be
used because it is a governmental fund, which is, in essence, an accounting
segregation of financial resources.
For the enterprise fund, the accrual basis of accounting should be used because it is
a proprietary fund, with activities similar to those in the commercial, profit-seeking
sector.

18-4


C18-2 Capital Projects, Debt Service, and Internal Service Funds
a. Capital projects funds account for the acquisition or construction of major capital
facilities or improvements. A separate capital projects fund is created at the time the
project is approved and ceases at the completion of the project. Accounting for capital
projects funds is similar to accounting for the general fund. The modified accrual
basis of accounting is used; no fixed assets, depreciation, or long-term debt is
recorded in these funds.
The bond proceeds are not revenue to the capital projects fund; they are reported as
Other Financing Sources. A premium on the sale of bonds is transferred to the debt
service fund. When the expenditure is recorded, Contract Payable is credited for the
current portion due and Contract Payable-Retained Percentage is credited for the
amount held back to ensure that the contractor fully completes the project to the
satisfaction of the governmental entity.
The financial statements for capital projects funds are a balance sheet and a
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance. No budget versus
actual is required because capital projects funds use a capital budget rather than an
operating budget.
b. Debt service funds account for the accumulation and use of resources for the
payment of general long-term debt principal and interest. Accounting for the debt
service fund is similar to accounting for the general fund. The modified accrual basis
of accounting is used; no fixed assets or long-term debt is recorded; only current
maturities are recorded in the fund.
The bond premium received from the capital projects fund is recorded as an other
financing source – transfer in. The matured portion of a serial bond is recognized as
an expenditure and Matured Bonds Payable is credited. Interest legally due and
payable is recorded as an expenditure and Matured Interest Payable is credited.
The financial statements of the debt service fund are a balance sheet and a
statement of revenue, expenditures, and changes in fund balance.
c. Internal service funds account for the financing of goods or services provided by
one department to other departments on a cost-reimbursement basis. Separate
internal service funds are established for each type of service. Accounting for internal
service funds is the same as for enterprise funds or commercial entities. The accrual
basis is used; these funds record fixed assets, depreciation, and long-term debt.
The internal service fund may be started with a transfer in from the general fund. The
billings are recorded in "Due from" accounts and the revenue account, Charges for
Services. The closing entries involve a Profit and Loss Summary or Excess of Net
Revenues over Costs account.
The financial statements of an internal service fund are a statement of net assets; a
statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in fund net assets; and, a statement
of cash flows.

C18-3 Discovery Case
Summary of major information items in the Financial Report of the United States
Government,
1.

The report is prepared by the Secretary of the Treasury.

2.

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis presents comparative historical
information for operations and financial position along with budget information,
both historical and projected.

3.

The Comptroller General of the United States heads the General Accountability
Office (GAO) who is the auditor for the U.S. government. For several years, the
Comptroller General has disclaimed an opinion on the consolidated financial
statements because of the material deficiencies in the government’s systems,
recordkeeping, documentation, and financial reporting.
The material
deficiencies are listed in the auditor’s report.

4.

The following five statements are presented: (1) Statements of Net Cost,
(2) Statements of Operations and Changes in Net Position, (3) Reconciliations
of Net Operating Revenue (Cost) to the Budget Surplus (unaudited), (4)
Dispositions of the Budget Surplus (unaudited), and (5) Balance Sheets.

5.

The Statements of Net Cost present the costs and revenue for the major
departments, agencies, commissions, and other units of the federal
government.

6.

The Statement of Operations and Changes in Net Position presents the
revenues by type, the total costs, and the net operating revenue (cost) for each
year.

7.

The Reconciliation of Net Operating Revenue (Cost) to the Budget Surplus
presents the increases or decreases in major cost programs, along with the
amount of capitalized fixed assets by major agencies of the federal
government.

8.

The Dispositions of the Budget Surplus presents the changes in assets and
liabilities during the years reported.

9.

The Balance Sheets present the assets, by major type, the liabilities, by major
type, and reconciles to the net position of the U.S. government.

10.

Major footnotes include a stewardship report on the resources held by the U.S.
government, and a large number of notes to the financial statements that
report on specific items related to agencies, commissions, and other entities
within the federal government.

C18-4 Becoming Familiar With a Local Government’s Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report (CAFR)
(Note to the instructor: Most local governments now produce a comprehensive annual
financial report. You might select the local city or county in which the university is located
or a large city close to the university town. Printed copies of the CAFR may be obtained
directly from that governmental entity and you could place these copies on reserve in
your university library for use by your students. Alternatively, many governments now
provide their CAFRs online. A Google web search using “CAFR” and the name of your
city, county or state will show if your selection provides an online copy of its CAFR. Or,
you may do a Google search using “CAFR” and then select one of the government units
that provide an online copy of its CAFR and then provide that link to your students or
insert that link into your online syllabus.)
a. Students should read the MD&A to get familiar with the governmental entity. One of
the items contained in the MD&A is information on the nature of the services performed
by the government. At the local government level, the services usually consist of police
and fire protection, street maintenance, recreation, and other services typically the
responsibility of the local government.
b. Because there is so much information contained in a CAFR, it is important to see what
information is covered by the auditor’s opinion. The auditor’s opinion is usually
unqualified. The auditor does not audit the MD&A and other RSI and does not express an
opinion on this information. The auditor reads the MD&A and other RSI to determine if
the information contained therein is reasonable.
c. A general purpose government will have most fund types. It is beneficial for the student
to see which fund types are used and which ones are not used by a government.
d. Students should become familiar with the types of information found in the notes. One
item of information disclosed in the notes is a description of the measurement focus and
basis of accounting used by the governmental funds. The footnotes’ discussions
regarding the governmental funds and their use of the financial resources measurement
focus and modified accrual basis of accounting reinforce what the students learned from
the text.
e. Listing the financial statements that use the economic resources measurement focus
and accrual basis of accounting reinforces the coverage in the text. In their evaluation,
students should remember that the governmental fund financial statements are the only
ones prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting.
f. Students should be aware of the reporting of major funds in the financial statements
of governmental and proprietary funds.
g. This question emphasizes that the reporting entity for the government may be larger
than the local governmental if the local government has fiscal accountability over other
governmental entities. Because many component units are reported discretely, students
should have little problem identifying the existence of component units.

18-7


C18-4 (continued)
h. The purpose of this question is for students to become acquainted with the balance
sheet equation for the governmental funds: Assets = Liabilities + Fund Balance. Another
goal for this question is for students to see that fund balance is separated into two
components: (1) reserved and (2) unreserved.
i. The purpose behind questions i - l is to help students understand the format of the
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance. The first section
deals with revenues, which are reported according to source. Students will discover that
taxes are generally not the only source of revenue.
j. The objective of this question is to get students to understand how governments report
expenditures. Students may expect governments to report expenditures by object;
however, expenditures are not reported this way on the statement of revenues,
expenditures, and changes in fund balance.
k. The purpose of this question is to have students examine the items reported in other
financing sources and uses. This should reinforce what they learn in the text when they
read the section dealing with interfund transfers.
l. This question covers the last items reported on the statement of revenues,
expenditures, and changes in fund balance: special items, the change in fund balance for
the year, and the ending fund balance at the end of the most recent year. Students
should not expect to see any special items since their occurrence is rare. However,
students should see the change in fund balance for the year being added to the
beginning fund balance to produce ending fund balance.

C18-5 The GASB’s Decision-Making Process
The GASB’s presentation of its decision-making process is found on their web site at
www.gasb.org/ then click on GASB FACTS in the left-hand frame, then click on Facts
About the GASB: The Mission and Structure of the Board, and finally, click on An Open
Decision-Making Process.
1. The Governmental Accounting Standards Advisory Council (GASAC). This council is
composed of about 25 persons from a diverse background in government accounting
and finance. This council provides suggestions for topics to be considered by the
GASB. In addition, the Board receives concerns about current governmental
accounting needs from other persons and groups who work in governmental
accounting or auditing.
2. Task Force. In many cases, a task force is formed shortly after the Board agrees to
place the project on its agenda. A task force is comprised of persons who know the
project’s subject matter and provides expertise and advice to the GASB as it focuses
on the critical issues and determine if a new standard is necessary.
3. Discussion Memorandum (DM). The DM is normally prepared by the staff and
defines the problem(s), the scope of the project, the accounting and reporting issues;
and presents relevant research, alternative solutions to the issues, and arguments
both for and against each alternative. Written comments are solicited and in many
cases a public hearing is scheduled to discuss the DM.
4. Invitation to Comment (ITC). An ITC is sometimes issued when the GASB seeks
more input on one or more of the issues.
5. Preliminary Views (PV). A PV puts forth the Board’s consensus at an early stage in
the process. A majority of the Board must approve the issuance of a PV. The Board
solicits comments on the PV.
6. Public Hearing. A public hearing is typically scheduled to provide the Board with an
opportunity to hear the viewpoints of the public as well as to allow the Board to raise
questions to the staff regarding written or oral comments received on the project,
including any submissions at the public hearing.
7. Analysis of Oral and Written Comments. The staff performs an analysis of the
submitted comments, looking for information and good arguments on the issues, and
presents this analysis to the members of the Board who often make their own review
of the comments.
8. Meetings of the Board. The Board may have several, or many, meetings to discuss
the issues. Board meetings on the project are open to the public, although observers
are not allowed to participate in the discussions.
9. Exposure Draft (ED). An ED presents the proposed new standards, the proposed
effective date and method of transition, background information, and explains the
basis for the Board’s conclusions regarding the issues covered by the ED.
10. Further Deliberations by the Board. The Board receives comments on the ED and
discusses the comments to determine if any modifications are needed in the
proposed standard.
11. Statements of Governmental Accounting Standards or Statements of Governmental
Accounting Concepts. A majority of the Board must vote in favor of adopting a
pronouncement. Statements of Standards establish new accounting or reporting
requirements. Statements of Concepts do not create new standards, but rather give
guidance for dealing with problems that arise on an issue.
And then, the Board continues to work on the next project!

18-9


C18-6 Summarizing a Recent GASB Exposure Draft
Note to the Instructor: This case provides your students with the opportunity to be on
the leading edge of a proposed governmental accounting or reporting standard. Students
can learn about some of the specifics of an expected, new GASB Statement.
The most recent ED on the web page will be dependent on future actions of the GASB,
but the Project Pages link in the left-hand frame of the GASB’s opening web page
presents information on the status of current GASB projects. These projects are in
various stages of progress, but as of 2008, it appears that future Statements may be on
economic condition reporting, fund balance reporting, and on service efforts and
accomplishments reporting. Of course, given the dynamic nature of governmental
accounting and reporting, it is expected that new projects will be added, and some of the
current projects may be discontinued or included within a larger project the board is
studying. And, some may become new GASB Statements!

To be a major fund, an individual fund must meet both the 10 percent and the 5 percent
major fund criteria in at least one financial statement item. Each major fund is presented in a
separate column on the fund-based financial statements presented as part of the
comprehensive annual financial report for the governmental entity.
(1) General fund – is always a major fund
(2) Capital Projects – Library fund – assets (both 10% and 5% criterion tests)
(3) Enterprise – Electric – assets and liabilities (both 10% and 5% criterion tests)
(4) Enterprise – Water – assets, liabilities, revenues (both 10% and 5% criterion tests)
The other governmental funds must be aggregated and reported in a single column in the
governmental funds balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in
fund balance.

P18-23 Reconciliation Schedules
a. Reconciliation of the Balance Sheet of the Governmental Funds to the Statement of
Net Assets:
City of Sycamore
Reconciliation of the Balance Sheet of Governmental Funds
to the Statement of Net Assets
Fund balances reported in the governmental funds
Amounts reported for the governmental activities in the statement of net
assets are different because:
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and
therefore are not reported in the governmental funds. The internal service
fund reported $18,000 in capital assets. Thus, the amount of the adjustment
Is for the capital assets not reported in just the governmental funds,
($4,311,000 = $4,329,000 - $18,000)
Internal service funds are used by management to charge costs of certain
activities. The assets and liabilities of the internal service fund and are
Included in governmental activities In the statement of net assets.
Long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in the
current period and therefore are not reported as liabilities in the
governmental funds.
Interest in the governmental funds is recognized under the modified accrual
basis, but under the accrual basis for the government-wide financial
statements.
Net assets are adjusted for interest ($5,000 = $6,000 - $1,000).

Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities:
City of Sycamore
Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund
Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities
Net change in fund balances – governmental funds
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in
the statement of activities, the costs of those assets is capitalized and
depreciated over their estimated useful lives. This is the amount by which
capital outlays in the governmental funds ($287,000) exceeded
depreciation of the governmental assets ($187,000)
Bond proceeds provide current financial resources for the governmental
funds. However, the issuance of debt increases long-term liabilities in the
statement of net assets. Bond proceeds of $460,000 are not reduced
because there is no repayment of principal during the year.
Revenues and expenses in the statement of activities are recorded on the
accrual basis. Interest in the governmental funds is recorded on the
modified accrual basis. Accrual interest revenue exceeded modified
accrual interest revenue recognized in the governmental funds by $1,000.
Accrual interest expense exceeded modified accrual interest expense
by $6,000 ($46,000 - $40,000). The net interest adjustment is $5,000.
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of
certain services. The net revenue (expense) of the internal service
funds is reported with governmental activities.
