CITY OF SAN LEANDRO NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For The Year Ended June 30, 2019 NOTE 1— SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) E. Use of Restricted and Unrestricted Net Position When an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net positions are available, the City's policy is to apply restricted net position first. F. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments The City pools cash and investments from all sources, except the fiscal agent cash and investments, for the purpose of increasing income through investment activities. Interest income on investments is allocated on the basis of average month-end cash and investment balances in each fund. Cash and cash equivalents represent cash and investments and restricted cash and investments with an original maturity term of three months or less. Pooled cash and investments allocated to proprietary fund types are considered cash and cash equivalents since specific investments held in the City's pooled cash and investments are not allocated to each fund. The City invests in the California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), which is part of the Pooled Money Investment Account operated by the California State Treasurer. LAIF funds are invested in high quality money market securities and are managed to insure the safety of the portfolio. A portion of LAIF's investments are in structured notes and asset-backed securities. The remainder of the City's investment portfolio is managed by Chandler Asset Management. In accordance with GASB Statement No. 31, highly liquid money market investments with maturities of one year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. G. Inventory Inventory is held for consumption and is valued at average cost. Internal service fund supplies consist of materials and supplies for the various City vehicles (tires, batteries, etc.) and building maintenance, which are used for replacement parts for vehicle service and to maintain City buildings. Information management service inventory consists of postage for department use and a monthly count is performed to adjust this account to actual at the appropriate month-end. CE:
