GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

STATEMENT OF NET POSITION

Activities
Assets
—Cash $840,000
—Property Tax Receivable 100,000
Total Assets $1 ,168,900
Liabilities
—Vouchers Payable $41,000
—Salary Payable 10,000
—Interest Payable 10,000
The total net position figure of $907,900 can be found by taking the opening
balance of $180,000 and then adding the revenues for the period and
subtracting the expenses.
49. (10 Minutes) (The budgetary process)
A. True—The initial approval of spending was $380,000 and that amount
should be recorded immediately. The budgetary entry debits Estimated
Revenues and credits Appropriations.
E. False—Budgetary information only relates to fund financial statements
to show the inflows and outflows of current financial resources and has
no impact on the government-wide financial statements.
50. (10 Minutes) (The recording of grants)
A. False—This grant appears to be voluntary exchange transaction.
Revenue should be recognized when all eligibility requirements have
been met. Here, the eligibility requirements, if any, could have been met
during 2015. It is certainly possible that the eligibility requirements have
not been met but that is not necessarily the case.
D. True—Cash is recognized because it had been received but no revenue
is reported because all eligibility requirements have not yet been met.
Thus, unavailable revenue should be established for the amount
received.
51. (20 Minutes) (Impact of various government transactions)
a. Fund financial statements – the fund balance goes up by $6 million
because of the inflow of current financial resources.
Government-wide financial statements – the net position balance does
b. Fund financial statements – the fund balance goes down by $149,000
because of the outflow of current financial resources.
b. Fund financial statements – the fund balance is not affected because
the resources will not be collected quickly enough to be available in the
current period. An asset (receivable) is recognized along with a liability
(unearned revenue) so that the size of the fund balance is not affected.
d. Fund financial statements – the fund balance should go up by $500,000.
Sales took place in the current year but only half of the financial
resources will all be received within the 75 day period being used to
define available resources. The remainder will be unavailable revenue.
f. Fund financial statements – the fund balance for the General Fund goes
down by $18,000 because the transfer has been approved and will
remove current financial resources from this fund.
Government-wide financial statements – no impact occurs on the net
position balance of the governmental activities because this is an intra-
activity transfer from one Governmental Fund to another. There is no
net effect.
