Correct Answer:
C
GASB Statement No. 34 provides the criteria for determining major funds, primarily based on
quantitative thresholds (e.g., 10% of total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses).
However, GASB also allows management to designate any governmental or enterprise fund as a
major fund if, in its judgment, it is particularly important to users of the financial statements—even if
it doesn’t meet the quantitative criteria.
Other options are incorrect:
The general fund is always presented as a major fund regardless of criteria.
Internal service funds are never reported as major funds in the fund financial statements.
