The City of Salem does not have a permanent fund or it would be presented here as well. Each of the citys governmental funds is considered a major fund and is presented separately. If the city had multiple smaller funds, they would be combined and reported in a single column labeled nonmajor funds. The governmental fund statements are prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. For this reason, capital assets and long-term debt do not appear on the Balance Sheet. The excess of assets and deferred outflows over liabilities and deferred inflows is labeled fund balance, an account title used only in the governmental funds. All other funds and the government-wide statements label the difference between assets and liabilities as net position. Several features of the Balance Sheet should be noted. First, a total column is required. Secondly, fund balance is displayed within the categories of nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned. These will be more fully described in later chapters, but represent varying degrees of constraint placed on the use of the (net) resources of governmental funds. Finally, total fund balances reported in the total column ($12,922,626) must be reconciled to total net position ($38,410,768) presented in the governmental activities column of the government-wide Statement of Net Position. The reconciliation is presented separately in Illustration 2-7a (below). These amounts differ because the two statements have different bases of accounting and because most internal service funds are included in the governmental activities column on the government-wide statements. ILLUSTRATION 2-7a Reconciliation to (Government-wide) Statement of Net Position Fund balance reported in the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet $12,992,626 Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position are different because: Capital assets used in government operations are not financial resources and therefore are not reported in the funds. 65,690,373 Some liabilities are not due and payable in the current period and are not reported in fund liabilities. (41,999,403) The assets and liabilities of internal service funds are included in governmental activities for the Statement of Net Position. 436,475 Accrued liabilities that are not to be paid from current financial resources are not recognized in the funds. (3,117,390) Receivables on the Statement of Net Position that do not provide current financial resources are reported as deferred inflows in the funds. 4,408,087 Net position of governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position $38,410,768 Final PDF to printer Overview of Financial Reporting for State and Local Governments 33 cop4101X_ch02_020-053.indd 33 10/21/16 11:46 AM Example Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Financial Section: Basic Financial Statements Governmental Funds Statements: Balance Sheet ILLUSTRATION 2-7b Governmental Funds Balance Sheet CITY OF SALEM Balance Sheet Governmental Funds As of December 31, 2017 Special Courthouse Debt Total General Revenue Renovation Service Governmental Assets Fund Fund Fund Fund Funds Cash and cash equivalents $ 6,408,214 $627,837 $ 895,300 $230,000 $ 8,161,351 Investments 3,312,992 _____ _____ _____ 3,312,992 Receivables (net) Taxes receivable 2,872,611 _____ _____ _____ 2,872,611 Accounts receivable 679,215 14,177 _____ _____ 693,392 Due from other governments 1,085,184 _____ 243,264 _____ 1,328,448 Supplies inventory 23,747 _____ _____ _____ 23,747 Restricted assets 3,933,126 _____ _____ _____ 3,933,126 Total assets $18,315,089 $642,014 $1,138,564 $230,000 $20,325,667 Liabilities Accounts payable 2,085,358 70,000 207,134 _____ 2,362,492 Accrued liabilities 543,064 _____ 19,398 _____ 562,462 Total liabilities 2,628,422 70,000 226,532 _____ 2,924,954 Deferred Inflows of Resources Property taxes 4,408,087 _____ _____ _____ 4,408,0 cop4101X_ch02_020-053.indd 34 10/21/16 11:46 AM 34 Example Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Financial Section: Basic Financial Statements Governmental Funds Statements: Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance Governmental Funds: Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance Illustration 2-8b presents the operating statement for the same governmental funds appearing in Illustration 2-7b (the balance sheet). Again, the statement is prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are reported by source, and expenditures (not expenses) are reported by character: current, debt service, and capital outlay. Within the current category, expenditures are presented by function: general government, judicial administration, public safety, and so on. Within the debt service category, expenditures are displayed as interest or principal. Following revenues and expenses, the statement reports other financing sources and uses. These reflect interfund transfers and the proceeds of issuing debt. Most of the items appearing in this section are eliminated when preparing the governmentwide financial statements. Like all operating statements, reconciliations to the Balance Sheet are required. In this case, the operating statement is reconciled to total fund balances by adding the beginning of year fund balances. The excess of revenues and other sources over expenditures and other uses ($1,485,357) is reconciled to the change in net position ($+3,250,795) for the governmental activities column in the government-wide Statement of Activities. This reconciliation would normally appear at the bottom of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance, but is presented in Illustration 2-8a due to space considerations. ILLUSTRATION 2-8a Reconciliation to (Government-wide) Statement of Activities Excess of revenues and other sources over expenditures and other uses reported in the Governmental Funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance. $(1,485,357) Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Activities are different because: Governmental funds report the cost of capital assets as expenditures, while they are capital assets in the government-wide statements. 10,924,818 Debt proceeds provide current financial resources to the governmental funds but are liabilities in the government-wide statements. (9,675,400) Depreciation is not recorded in the governmental funds, but is expensed in the Statement of Activities. (1,691,116) Income earned by internal service funds is included in governmental activities on government-wide statements. 23,964 Payments of principal on long-term debt are expenditures in the governmental funds but reduce the liability in the government-wide statements. 1,155,326 Property taxes expected to be collected more than 60 days after year-end are deferred in the governmental funds. 3,998,560 Change in net position of governmental activities (government-wide) $3,250,795 Final PDF to printer cop4101X_ch02_020-053.indd 35 10/21/16 11:46 AM Example Comprehensive Annual
