Nonprofit Food Service Account Status

You are able to track the balance in the nonprofit food service account to ensure that the CACFP reimbursement is being appropriately spent.

To track balances:

• Click on “Expenses” from the main dashboard.
• Click the blue “Nonprofit Food Service Account Status” button on the upper-right corner.
• Set the opening balance. Either type a number in or click the green button on the left to copy the closing balance from the prior month.
• Reimbursement for Operating (85% of meal reimbursement plus cash in lieu of commodities) is populated based on the claim data but can be edited if necessary.
• Reimbursement for Admin (15% of meal reimbursement) is populated only for self-sponsored sites and is based on the claim.
• Operating Expenses are drawn directly from the receipt ledger.
• Admin Expenses are drawn directly from the receipt ledger and only available for self-sponsored sites.
• If you edit the opening balance or change the reimbursement amounts, you can re-calculate the beginning and ending balances for a month by clicking the green or blue buttons on the right (1).
• In addition, for those that only want to see the monthly reimbursement and expenses, you have the option to hide these buttons for a cleaner interface. Simply slide the toggle button to “Hide Calculation Options” (2).
