3C. This portion of the continuous problem continues the General Fund and special revenue fund examples by requiring the recording and posting of the budgetary entries. To reduce clerical effort required for the solution use control accounts for the budgetary accounts, revenues, expenditures and encumbrances. Subsidiary accounts are not required. Budget information for the City includes:

  1. As of January 1, 2017, the City Council approved and the mayor signed a budget calling for $11,150,000 in property tax and other revenue, $9,350,000 in appropriations for expenditures, and $1,700,000 to be transferred to two debt service funds for the payment of principal and interest. Record the budget for the General Fund and post to the ledger.

  1. Also as of January 1, 2017, the City Council approved and the mayor signed a budget for the Street and Highway Fund that provided for estimated revenues from the state government in the amount of $1,068,000 and appropriations of $1,047,000. Record the budget and post to the ledger.
