The following are selected elements of that reconciliation: Donations of capital assets are reported as capital contributions in the Statement of Activities, but do not appear in the governmental funds because they are not financial resources. In addition, the Statement of Activities reports gains and losses arising from the disposal of existing capital assets, while governmental funds do not. The difference of $3,618,060 is due to sale of capital assets. Capital outlays are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. However, the Statement of Activities allocates the cost of capital outlays over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense. The details of this $2,217,975 difference are as follows: Capital outlay $2,478,466 Depreciation expense (260,491) Net adjustment$2,217,975 Governmental funds defer revenues that do not provide current financial resources.
