JUNE 30, 2002

Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNTFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND-the fund used to account for financial resources to be used for the acqms1tlon or construcuon ofmaJor capital fac1hllcs
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund 1s determined by its measurement focus All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus With this measurement focus, only current assets and current hab1ht1es generally are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements ofthese funds present increases (1 e , revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (1 e, expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets Their reported fund balance 1s considered a measure of available spendable resources
Liab1ht1es which arc expected to be financed from available spendable resources are reported as hab1htlcs in the governmental funds
Governmental funds arc accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accountmg under which
Revenues are recogmzed when susceptible to accrual (1 e, when they become both measurable and available) "Measurable" means the amount of the transact10n can be determined and "available" means collectible w1thm the current penod or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay hab1httes of the current pcnod The School D1stnct considers receivables collected within sixty days after yearend to be available Property tai..es, sales taxes and interest arc considered to be susceptible to accrual Nonexchange transactions, in which the School D1stnct gives (or receives) value without directly receiving (or giving) equal value in exchange, include property taxes, local option sales laxes, intergovernmental grants and donations Revenue for property taxes 1s recogruzed in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied Revenue from sales taxes 1s recogmzed in the fiscal year the resources are received or susceptible to accrual Revenue from grants and donations 1s rccogmzed in the fiscal year in which all ehg1b1hty requirements have been sallsfied
Expenditures are generally recogmzed when the related fund hab1hty 1s incurred
A departure from the above defimt1ons 1s the accounting treatment afforded the final two payments on General Fund teachers' and bus dnvers' contracts, and the resources available from the Georgia Department of Education for the State's share of these contracts Dunng fiscal year 2002, a substanllal number of personnel of the School D1stnct were employed for a one hundred and mnety day pcnod bcginning in August 2001 and ending in early June 2002 Personnel contracts for this employment penod specify that compensation be paid in twelve equal monthly payments begmning in September 2001 and ending in August 2002.
