Chapter 8 Recording Fiduciary Fund TransactionsAn Investment Trust Fund

The city council of the City of Bingham decided in late 2020 to do an investment pool that would put the city's investments under professional management.The pool will be accounted for as an investment trust fund.The name of the fund, when it is established in early 2021, will be the Investment Pool Fund.The initial participants in the Investment Pool Fund will be the city's debt service fund and the Bingham Consolidated School District (CSD).The pool will be accounted for in accordance with GASB standards applicable to fiduciary funds; therefore, the city's debt service fund assets managed by the investment pool will not be reported in the Investment Pool Fund financial statements. Unless there is a request for a withdrawal, investment earnings and changes in the fair value of investments are distributed to participants only at year-end.During the year, investment earnings are added to an Undistributed Earnings on Pooled Investments account and changes in fair value are added to or subtracted from an Undistributed Change in Fair Value of Investments Account.
