APPROVAL: Approved by Dale Brunton
SUMMARY: According to Governmental Accounting Standard Board (GASB) Statement 34, revenues from grants should be classified as operating or capital.


These changes are based on a survey sent to agencies who receive large amounts of grant money. This survey revealed that most of the revenues received for grants were for operating grants. In those situations where grant revenues are received for capital projects, additional revenue subobject codes are being established to report these capital grant revenues. The reporting of operating and capital grants is necessary to comply with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and GASB Statement 34.

The following revenue subobject codes for grants have been revised to report operating grants. Operating grants are defined as grants used for the operation of a specific program. The following changes in descriptions for operating grants are effective immediately:

4100 All Other Operating Grants, Gifts, Donations and Contributions: Amounts received from private and public sources, other than the federal government, for use in support of specific functions of government or for use in other governmental activities.

The following federal grants revenue subobject codes are being established to report capital grants revenues. Paragraph 50 of GASB Statement 34 states that a capital grant is used to purchase, construct or renovate a capital asset associated with a specific program. The following additions for capital grants are effective immediately:

4014 Highways and Bridges (Capital Grants): Federal Grants and matching funds for building highways and bridges, including grants for primary, urban and secondary roads.
