Introduction Section 167 of the PFM Act, 2012 requires the Administrator of a County Public fund established by the Constitution, an Act of Parliament or County Legislation to prepare financial statements for the Fund for each financial year in a form prescribed by PSASB. The financial statements should be submitted to the Auditor General by 30th September with a copy of the report to the CEC member responsible for that Fund. Section 168 requires the Administrator to also prepare quarterly reports and submit to the County Treasury within 15 days after the end of each quarter with a copy to the Controller of Budget.
Fund Accounting Fund Accounting is the process of recording, measuring and reporting financial transactions relating to Funds. Funds are accounted for using the Accrual basis of accounting. In Kenya, the PSASB has prescribed the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) as the accounting framework for public entities. Consequently, Funds should be accounted for using the IPSAS Accrual accounting standards. This is in accordance with section 2.2.2 of Gazette Notice No 5440.

TYPES OF FUNDS Revolving funds e.g. Car and Mortgage, Non Revolving funds e.g. Bursary, Emergency Strictly private and confidential Draft 19 April 2016 PwC
Journal Entries Whether loan is given or loan is taken, it is a must to record it in books because given loan is our asset and taken loan is our liability. Moreover on the basis of outstanding balance, interest is calculated and it is paid by borrower to lender. So, for knowing actual balance of loan outstanding, we need to pass journal entries.

Accounting for Revenue The main type of revenue for funds is interest income. This is regulated by IPSAS 9: Revenue from exchange transactions Exchange transaction - one entity receives assets or services, or has liabilities extinguished, and directly gives approximately equal value (primarily in the form of cash, goods, services, or use of assets) to another entity in exchange. Key considerations: Revenue should be accounted for in the period to which it relates; Interest income should be apportioned on a time basis taking into accounting the effective yield on the loan A receivable should be booked for earned revenue but not yet received.
Accounting for Expenses Expenses arising from exchange transactions: purchase of goods and services at arm s length conditions, such as maintenance services, consulting services, subscriptions, cleaning services and insurance fees. Expenses should be measured at the fair value of the consideration paid, or payable, taking into account the amount of any trade discounts and volume rebates granted to the entity. Expenses must be recorded in the accounting period in which they are incurred. If a service was rendered (or supplies were delivered) but the invoice has not yet been received - accrued expenses; If a service was rendered (or supplies were delivered) and the invoice received but payment has not been made- accounts payable; If a payment has been made and the service was not rendered (or supplies were not delivered) - prepayments. - If a payment has been made and the service was rendered (or supplies were delivered) book the expense and credit the cash book
Accounting for Fixed Assets IPSAS 17: Property, Plant and Equipment. An item of PP&E shall be recognized as an asset if: it is probable that future economic benefits or service potential associated with the item will flow to the entity; the cost or fair value of the item can be measured reliably. The date of acquisition is the date on which the risks and rewards pertaining to ownership get transferred -generally corresponds to the acceptance of delivery of the asset. PPE is initially measured at acquisition. Depreciation method (and useful life) used should reflect the pattern in which the asset's economic benefits or service potential are consumed.
Financial Records to be maintained Examples of key records to be maintained by a fund include: Loan disbursement schedule showing amount of loans disbursed, interest earned, principal repaid and outstanding balance; Bank reconciliation statements; Schedules of fund expenses and income earned; Support documentation for expenses and income for the fund; Asset register for the fund; This list is not comprehensive and there are other records necessary for the maintenance of fund s financial records.
