To receive reimbursement, the City must submit quarterly reports showing its expenditures, which it has done. Its expenditures for the quarter January through March 2019 were $320,000. Prepare separate journal entries to record (1) its expenditures under the grant and (2) its billing to the state.
b. The City of Ayers receives an expenditure-driven grant from the federal government to provide public concerts to traditionally underserved communities.

The City will be reimbursed for each dollar it spends on qualifying concerts up to a maximum of $60,000.
Prepare three separate journal entries in the City of Ayers' Parks and Recreation Special Revenue Fund to record (1) receipt of a $20,000 of grant proceeds that is received from the federal government prior to City sponsoring a qualifying concert, (2) incurring $65,000 of cash expenditures in the Special Revenue Fund for qualifying concerts during the current year, and (3) recording revenue from and the billing to the federal government.
