Inventories/Assets Held for Resale and Prepaid Items Inventories consist primarily of materials and supplies held for consumption. They are stated at cost, determined principally by a moving average method. The costs of governmental fund-type inventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. Inventories of the Greensboro ABC Board are valued at the lower of cost (FIFO) or market. Assets Held for Resale in the amount of $3,061,212 and $1,996,711 as of June 30, 2021, can be found in the statement of net position for component units, Exhibit A-15 on page 35, for the Greensboro Redevelopment Commission and the Greensboro Housing Development Partnership, respectively. Assets Held for Resale amounting to $95,180, and $600,000 are recorded in the Street and Sidewalk Capital Project Fund, and the Capital Leasing Fund, respectively, for certain other properties held by the City. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements and expensed as the items are used. 4. Restricted Assets Certain proceeds of the City’s bonds, certain grant receipts, as well as other funds are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their use is limited by applicable bonds covenants, grantor or other third party and enabling legislative restrictions and state statutes. Powell Bill funds are classified as restricted cash because they can be expended only for the purposes of maintaining, repairing, constructing, reconstructing or widening of local streets per G.S. 136-41.1 through 136-41.4. 5.
