B. Governmental Fund Types, Expendable Trust and Agency Funds:
Basis of Accounting:

The accounts of the general, special revenue, debt service, capital projects, expendable trust and agency
funds are maintained and reported using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual
basis of accounting, revenues are susceptible to accrual and recognized in the financial statements when they
are measurable and available to finance operations during the year or liquidate liabilities existing at the end
of the year. Material revenues susceptible to accrual include federal grants, income, sales and motor vehicle
fuel and excise taxes. Expenditures are recognized when obligations are incurred as a result of receipt of goods
and services. Modifications to the accrual basis of accounting include:

• Interest on long-term obligations reflected in the general long-term debt account group is recognized in
the debt service funds when it becomes payable.

• Inventories of materials and supplies are recorded as expenditures when purchased. Such inventories
are not material.

• Obligations for employees' vested annual leave and sick leave are recorded as expenditures when paid.

• Encumbrances, represented by executed and unperformed purchase orders and contracts which are
approved by the Department of Budget and Fiscal Planning, are recorded as reservations of fund
balance as of the end of the fiscal year.

Investments:

Investments are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, plus
accrued income. Short-term investments aggregating $454,436,000 (which approximates market value) at
June 30, 1983, consisting principally of U. S. Government Securities purchased with agreements to resell, are
reported as cash and short-term investments in governmental fund types.
