Preferred term

fund balance  

Definition

  • The accounting term fund balance is usually reserved for government units, including government hospitals, which are typically a proprietary fund of a government entity such as a county or city. It is similar to equity as that term is used by for-profit entities and to net assets as that term is used by not-for-profit organizations.
