Receipts
Review this portion of the book for information surrounding receipts.
Understanding receipts at Indiana University is crucial because it details how financial transactions flow into the institution, impacting revenue recognition and IU’s overall financial health. The different forms of receipts, including cash, checks, wires, and credit card payments, must be properly documents and controlled to prevent errors or fraud. Internal controls surrounding receipts ensure accuracy and compliance with accounting standards. It is important to follow the accrual method of accounting at IU, meaning that even though a receipt is received, the funds do not automatically translate into revenue until it is properly recorded.
