The following information pertains to the City of Williamson for $2024,$ its first year of legal existence. For convenience, assume that all

transactions are for the general fund, which has three separate functions: general government, public safety, and health and sanitation. Compensated absences $($such as vacations and sick days$)$ legally owed to general government workers at year$-$end total $$14,000.$

These amounts will not be taken by the employees until so late in $2025$ that the payment is not viewed as requiring $2024$ current

financial resources.

The city received a piece of art this year as a donation. It is valued at $$21,300.$ The city plans to use it for general government

purposes. The gift has no eligibility requirements. The city chose not to capitalize this property.

General government activities use the storage shed that was acquired this year. It is depreciated over a $10-$year period using the

straight$-$line method with no residual value. The city uses the equipment for health and sanitation and depreciates it using the straight$-$

line method over five years with no residual value.

The investments are valued at $$114\mathrm{.}300$ at the end of the year.

For the equipment that was ordered but not yet received, the City Council $($the highest decision$-$making body in the government$)$ voted
