Chapter 7 – interfund transaction

What is meant by the term interfund transaction and what are the four types of such transactions?

1 comment:

  1. Interfund transactions are transactions that take place solely between funds, as opposed to transactions with outside parties.

    The first type is a reciprocal loan to another fund, which the receiving fund is required to repay.

    The second type are interfund services, which are similar to arms-length exchanges with external parties, as one fund records a revenue, and the other records an expense/expenditure.

    The third type is an interfund transfer without the requirement for repayment. These are usually when the general fund makes it possible for another fund without revenue-generating capabilities to operate.

    The last type is a reimbursement, which happen when a fund pays for something that another fund should have.
