Talk:Fund Accounting

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a very short article based on a large subject. It doesn't even list the different funds used in fund accounting, let alone their uses. It does not specifically discuss that Fund Accounting usually relies on cash-based accounting system, which presents several reconciliation and reporting problems when presenting financial statements.

Governmental Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GGAAP) should be moved to a new article, since fund accounting does not exclusively apply to governmental entities. Mtmelendez 15:08, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

It would be nice to see examples of a general fund with a budget, the entries to post it to a ledger (by using an actual form), examples of opening entries, an example of daily entries and then closing entries, followed by the fund balance being transferred to the next year. To see it actually laid out like that would be very helpful. Unfortunately, I do not have the expertise to do it myself.MHuntington 07:21, 28 September 2006
