earned by District employees. It handles the disbursing of such
amounts to the employees and to taxing and other agencies on their
behalf.
Activity Fund . Accounts for programs operated and sponsored by
various clubs and organizations within the schools, Activity
funds are Agency Funds which are separately accounted for
because of legal requirements.
Account Groltos
The account groups are used to account for the general fixed assets and general
long-term debts of the District. These account groups are not funds. They are
only conceL'ned with the measurement of financial position and are not Involved
with the measurement of results of operations.
General Fixed Assets - General Fixed Assets account for the District's
Investment in fixed assets exclusive of those included In the Food
Service Fund. No depreciation has been provided on general fixed
assets, Interest costs incurred to purchase or finance fixed
assets is not capitalized as part of fixed assets.

charged as an expense against Its operations. Depreciation
has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the
straight-line method. The estimated useful life of food
service equipment is 12 years.

historical cost if actual historical cost is not available.

2. Summary of signiftcant accounting policies (Cont'd.)
Basis of accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized in
the accounts and reported in the financial statements.
Governmental Fund Tvpe9
All governmental funds utilize the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under
this method, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual, i. e.. both
measurable and available. Available means collectible within the current period
or soon enough thereafter to pay current liabilities. Such revenue items, which
are accrued in the year to which they apply arc principally property taxes, and
inter-governmental reVenues.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the moditied accrual basis of
accounting when the related fund liability is incurred. Exceptiona to thia
general rule include principal and interest on general long-term debt which is
recognized when due. Disbursements for inventory type i terns and prepaid expenses
are considered expenditures at the time of purchase.
Fiduciarv Fund Types
Agency Funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve
measurement of results of operations. Agency Funds are also accounted for using
the modified accrual basis of accounting.
Proprietarv Fund Types
The Food Service Fund uses the Pennsylvania Department of Education prescribed
"modified enterprise fund" method of accounting. Under this full accrual method
of accounting:
Equipment utilized by the Food Service Fund is recorded as
fixed assets of that Fund (at cost), and is depreciated therein
on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 12
years. The fixed assets, net of accumulated depreciation are
offset within the Fund by a reserved portion of retained
earnings representing the net investment in Food Service
equipment.
Donated commodities received by the Food Service Fund are
inventoried at estimated cost to purchase comparable products
locally or at cost figures provided by the Federal Government
if comparable products are not locally available.

Food Service Fund. Thus, General Fund expenditures which partially benefit the

Service Fund does not recognize a cost for the building space it occupies (no
rental of facilities expense).

General obligation bonds payable in future yeers are recorded
Interest on these bonds is recorded when such interest is due.
Compensated absences are those for which employees receive pay. A liability is
recorded through the use of estimates which apply historical data to current
factors. The District maintains records of unused absences and applies current
and/or contracted compensation rates to the vesting types of compensated absences.
Vacation leave does not accumulate. The District allows only restricted
sabbatical leave and therefore has no recorded liability in advance of the
sabbatical.
Cash and equivalents
The District pools cash resources of certain funds in order to facilitate the
management of cash. AY part of this cash management program sponsored by the
District's depositary institution, overnight repurchase egreements are bought end
sold on a regular basis to increase interest earnings. Cash and equivalents
applicable to a particular fund is readily identifiable. The balances in the
pooled cash management accounts are available to meet current operation
requirements.
