5200Fund TransfersTransactions which withdraw money from one fund and place it in another without recourse  Unless state law prohibits, revenues should be allocated to the appropriate funds when received, rather than accepted in the general fund and later transferred  Interfund loans are not recorded here, but are handled through the balance sheet accounts  To record the debit side of a transfer, the last two digits of the source code must be used to identify the fund number of the destination fund  An example is: A transfer from the General Fund to the Food Service Fund is coded as 5251, and by nature this carries a debit balance; this is a reduction of revenue out of the General Fund  The corresponding Source code in the Food Service fund would be 5210 and carries a credit balance, and is an increase in revenue  See Revised Appendix F, “Fund Transfers,” for an example  Please note that Object Code 0930 is no longer used to record the debit (expenditure) side of fund transfers
5300Intergrant TransfersAn Intergrant Transfer is when you transfer revenue from one grant to another, and spend those moneys accordingly  Example: you can transfer Title II Part A “Teacher Quality” grant revenue (grant 4367) over to Title I (grant 4010), and spend the transferred Teacher Quality money as Title I money  You cannot do this with all grants (there is a list of allowable grants in Appendix F-2) See Appendix F-3 for federal set aside transfers
5400Capital Financing (Leases). Used to classify the acquisition of capital assets through a capital financing (lease) agreement instead of using a conventional loan process.  This code will be used only for Leases under GASB Statement No. 87 after implementation, see source code 5500 instead.
5500Other Long-Term Debt Proceeds including Certificates of ParticipationProceeds from other long-term debt instruments not captured in the preceding revenue source codes. Included here are Certificates of Participation and proceeds from Capital Financing (Leases).  This code will not be used for Leases under GASB Statement No. 87 after implementation, see source code 5400 instead.
5700Charter School AllocationUsed to record the charter school per-pupil allocation that is required by Section 22-305-112(2)(a)(III)(A) CRS  Source code 5700 must be used to record these charter school allocations  To record the debit side of a revenue allocation, the last two digits of the source code must be used to identify the fund number of the destination fund: fund 11 for charter schools  Example: an allocation from the General Fund to the charter school fund is coded 5711 and, by nature, would carry a debit balance  The corresponding source code in the Charter School Fund is coded 5710
5800Colorado Preschool ProgramUsed only to record the districts CPP allocation Source code 5800 may be used to record these CPP allocations  To record the debit side of an allocation, the last two digits of the source code must be used to identify the fund number of the destination fund: fund 19 for District CPP and Fund 11 for Charter School CPP  Example: an allocation from the General Fund (Fund 10) to the District CPP Fund 19 is coded 5819 and to the Charter School CPP fund 11 is coded 5811  The corresponding source code in the CPP Fund 19 or Fund 11 is 5810 Additional funds transferred to fund 19 should be coded using the 5200 transfer coding structure (see Appendix F)  See Appendix O, “Allocations” For How to Use 5700 and 5800
5900Other SourcesProceeds from other sources not classified in any account listed above
5990Special ItemsThis account is used to classify special items in accordance with GASB Statement 34  Included are transactions or events within the control of the school district administration that are either unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence  For some districts, this may include the sale of certain general governmental capital assets; sale or lease of mineral rights, including oil and gas; sale of infrastructure assets; or significant forgiveness of debt by a financial institution  Special items may also include events that are not within the control of the district  In the governmental funds, these items should be separately captioned or disclosed
5991Extraordinary ItemsThis account is used to classify items in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No30  Included are transactions or events that are outside the control of school district administration and are both unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence  For some districts, this may include insurance proceeds to cover significant costs related to a natural disaster caused by fire, flood, tornado, hurricane, or hail storm; insurance proceeds to cover costs related to an environmental disaster; or a large bequest to a small government by a private citizen
6710  Non-spendable Fund BalanceThe non-spendable fund balance classification includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.  The “not in spendable form” criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash, for example, inventories and prepaid amounts.  It also includes the long-term amount of loans and notes receivable, as well as property acquired for resale.  The corpus (or principal) of a permanent fund is an example of an amount that is legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. 6711-6717 are available for District use and will roll to 6710. 6718-6719 are reserved for CDE use only.

6750 Committed Fund BalanceAmounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal action of the government’s highest level of decision-making authority should be reported as committed fund balance.  Those committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the government removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action it employed to previously commit those amounts. 6751-6757 are available for District use and will roll to 6750. 6758-6759 are reserved for CDE use only.
6760 Assigned Fund BalanceAmounts that are constrained by the government’s intent to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed, should be reported as assigned fund balance. 6761-6767 are available for District use and will roll to 6760. 6768-6769 are reserved for CDE use only.
6770  Unassigned Fund BalanceUnassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the General Fund.  This classification represents fund balance that has not been assigned to other funds and that has not been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific purposes within the General Fund.  The General Fund should be the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount.  In other governmental funds, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes exceeded the amounts restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance.  If that occurs, amounts assigned to other purposes in that fund should be reduced to eliminate the deficit.  If the remaining deficit eliminates all other assigned amounts in the fund, or if there are no amounts assigned to other purposes, the negative residual amount should be classified as unassigned fund balance.   A negative residual amount should not be reported for restricted, committed, or assigned fund balances in any fund.  6771-6777 are available for District use and will roll to 6770.  6778-6779 are reserved for CDE.Reporting EncumbrancesFor governments that use encumbrance accounting, significant encumbrances should be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements by major funds and nonmajor funds in the aggregate in conjunction with required disclosures about other significant commitments.  Encumbering amounts for specific purposes for which resources already have been restricted, committed, or assigned should not result in separate display of the encumbered amounts within those classifications.  Encumbered amounts for specific purposes for which amounts have not been previously restricted, committed, or assigned should not be classified as unassigned but, rather, should be included within committed or assigned fund balance, as appropriate, based on the definitions and criteria.
