CITY COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
Date: April 25, 2024
To: Cupertino City Council
From: Thomas Leung, Budget Manager
Re: Receive the Monthly Treasurer's Report for March 2024
Background
California Government Code Section 41004 states:
Regularly, at least once each month, the city treasurer shall submit to the city clerk
a written report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements, and fund balances.
The city treasurer shall file a copy with the legislative body.
The City's Municipal Code Section 2.24.030 Monthly Reports states:
The Treasurer shall make monthly reports which conform to the requirements of
Government Code Section 41004. Said reports shall be delivered to the City
Council, the City Manager and made available for review by such other persons
who may so request.
The Treasurer's Report (report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements, and fund
balances) is made available to City Council in compliance with the aforementioned
requirements.

Cash vs. Accrual Basis Accounting
Cash basis accounting and accrual basis accounting differ in the way revenues and
expenses are recognized and recorded, primarily with regard to their timing.
Under cash basis accounting, revenues are recorded when payment is received, and
expenses are recorded when payment is made. This method of accounting recognizes
transactions only when cash changes hands. In contrast, accrual basis accounting
recognizes revenues when they are earned (but not necessarily received) and expenses
when they are incurred (but not necessarily paid). This method of accounting recognizes
transactions as they occur, regardless of whether cash has been exchanged.
Receipts, disbursements, and cash balance are measured on a cash basis. The cash balance
shows the total cash and investments in the City's accounts. The ending balance is the
beginning balance plus receipts minus disbursements. Journal adjustments generally
include transactions recorded in other systems and imported into New World, Council-
approved budget adjustments, quarterly Cost Allocation Plan (CAP) charges, and
quarterly interest earnings.
Revenues, expenditures, and fund balance are measured on an accrual basis. As a result,
the amount in fund balance does not mean the City has that much cash on hand. Instead,
fund balance is the difference between assets and liabilities. The ending balance is the
beginning balance plus revenues minus expenditures.
