CMCA Practice Exam Terms Questions

expenses?: State- ment of Revenue and Expense

reflects the associations financial condition
4. Modified Cash Basis: Under the modified accrual basis, also
sometimes re- ferred to as modified cash basis, some accounts, such
as assessment income are maintained on the accrual basis and other
accounts, such as interest or other misc. income accounts and some
expenses such as repairs, are maintained on
a cash basis. The accrual of major expenses in particular, such as a
contract for landscaping, trash removal, etc. regardless of non-receipt
of invoices, gives the reader a much more accurate depiction of the
association's financial standing, as the accruals serve to alert the
reader to the recognition of obligations that the association must meet
