For shared funds, Account No. 1104000 (Legacy Account No. 1140), Cash in State Treasury, shows the net cash balance in the State Treasury for the fund. By having the agency/department transfer their balance of Account 1104000, in addition to the closing entry (Entry No. C-1) to the Account No. 3903000 (Legacy Account No. 5570), Fund Balance-Clearing Account, each agency/department will show their equity (net assets or liabilities) of the shared fund, and the State Controller’s Office (SCO) records will show the net activity for the entire fund.

To ensure the accuracy of the agency/department’s financial reports, agencies/departments will perform a monthly fund reconciliation to their general ledger account balances prior to closing the nominal accounts. The fund administrator of a shared fund will obtain necessary reports from all fund users to reconcile the activity in Account No. 1104000 (Legacy Account No. 1140).
