agency retains control for the lawful purposes for which the fund was received.
 SPECIAL PURPOSE FUND – are funds that the President allocates for special programs and

priority activities of the governments.

SOURCES OF REVENUE

 Revenues may arise from exchange and non- exchange transactions

EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONS – are transactions in which one entity receives assets or services, or has
liabilities extinguished, and directly gives approximately equal value to another entity in Exchange.

NON-EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONS – are transactions in which an entity either receives value from
another entity without directly giving approximately equal value in exchange, or gives value to another
entity without directly receiving approximately equal value in exchange.

MEASUREMENT of REVENUE FROM EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONS

 Revenue from exchange transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration
received or receivable. Any trade discounts and volume rebates shall be taken into account.

EXAMPLE: Entity A sells goods with a list price of P10,000 on account, with the following credit term
10%, 10%, and 5%. How do we recognized the revenue?

Accounts Receivable 7,695


Sales Revenue 7,695
To recognized sale of good on account

RECOGNITION of REVENUE from Non-Exchange Transactions

 Revenue from non-exchange transactions are recognized on a cash basis until a reliable
measurement model is developed. Accordingly, the asset and revenue or liability arising from a
non-exchange transaction are recognized when collected or when these are measurable and
legally collectible.

TAX REVENUE – Tax revenue is recognized at a gross amount and not reduced for expenses paid through
the tax system.

FINES and PENALTIES – are recognized as income in the year they are collected. However, fines are
recognized as revenue when the receivable meets the criteria for asset and are measured at the best
estimate of inflow of resources to the entity.

GIFTS, DONATIONS AND GOODS IN KIND – are recognized as revenue when it is probable that the
economic future benefits or service potential will flow to the entity.

- Those are received without condition are recognized immediately as revenue.


- Those with conditions are initially recognized as liability and recognized as revenue only when
the conditions are satisfied.
SERVICE IN KIND – are not recognized as revenue due to the uncertainties affecting the entity’s
ability to control those services and measure them at fair value.

- Service in-kind may be disclosed in the notes.

NOTES:

 Assets, Liabilities and revenue arising from non-exchange transaction are measured:
 If Asset – at the acquisition-date fair value
 If Liabilities – at present value, when the effect of time value of monetary is material.
 If Revenue – at the amount of increase in net assets.
