In 2016 the governing body of the City of Wonder decided to construct a bridge expected to cost $3,000,000. The bridge construction and related costs are to be financed as follows:

Total Percent

Federal Grant $ 1,200,000 40

State Grant $ 600,000 20

Bond issue proceeds $ 900,000 30

Transfer from General Fund $ 300,000 10

$ 3,000,000 100

The state grant is a fixed sum irrevocably granted for the bridge project and will revert to the state only if the bridge is not built. The federal grant is for 40% of the qualifying project expenditures, with a maximum grant limit of $1,200,000; and any excess grant cash will revert to the federal government.

The bridge is to be constructed by a private contracting firm, Defliese & Co. The city's workforce will do related earthmoving and landscape work. The estimated costs of the bridge project are:

Bridge Structure:

Defliese & Co. contract …………………………$ 2,400,000

Earthmoving and Landscaping

Labor ………………………………………...........……$ 300,000

Machine time ………………………………….....… $ 200,000

Fuel ………………..……………………………........… $100,000

Materials ………………………………………….......$ 600,000

Total $ 3,000,000

Defliese & Co. is to post a performance bond guaranteeing the quality and timeliness of its work. In addition, 5% of the amounts payable to Defliese & Co. under the contract will be retained as a further guarantee of the quality of its work. This retainage will be remitted upon final inspection of the bridge and its acceptance by the city.

When the bridge capital project was officially authorized by ordinance, the City of Wonder controller recorded estimated revenues and appropriations in the amounts listed above.

The following transactions occurred during 2016:

(1) The contract with Defliese & Co. was signed and work began on the bridge.

(2) Bonds were sold to help finance the project at a slight premium (101) for $909,000.

(3) Fuel and materials ordered during the year totaled $55,000.

(4) The state grant was received; but the governing body authorized only a $130,000 transfer from the general fund for now. The remainder will be authorized later.

(5) Invoices were received and vouchered for fuel and materials, $49,000 (encumbered at $48,000); machine time, $81,000; and the Defliese & Co. contract, $1,000,000 (as encumbered).

(6) Cash disbursements thus far were:

Vouchers Payable $970,000

Investments 400,000

Labor 140,000

(7) Filed for federal grant reimbursement for 40% of the expenditures (transactions 5 & 6) incurred for the project thus far.

(8) Accrued interest receivable on investments at year end was $18,000.

(9) Invoices were received and vouchered for fuel and materials, $43,000 (partially encumbered at $7,000); machine time, $108,000; and the Defliese & Co. contract, $1,410,000 (encumbered at $1,400,000); including a $10,000 adjustment in the contract, approved by the governing body, for necessary work not anticipated.

(10) Cash receipts during the remainder of the year were:

Federal grant $1,198,000

Investments (including interest) 430,000

Operating transfers from Gen. Fund 170,000

(11) Cash disbursements made during the remainder of the year were:

Vouchers payable $1,600,500

Payroll 129,000

(12) Under the terms of the federal grant; (a) the $10,000 additional payment to Defliese & Co. is not an allowable cost; (b) only the actual costs for earthmoving and landscaping are allowable; and (c) the otherwise allowable costs must be reduced by the interest earned by investing project monies. Accordingly, $30,000 was recorded as payable to the federal government, pending final inspection of the completed bridge.
