Answer 1

The $1,200,000 should be accounted for in Grove’s special revenue funds

Step-by-step explanation:

Special revenue fund: The special revenue fund is a fund that is introduced by the government to collect the money from the public. It is made to fulfill the need for specific purposes/ projects.

The computation of special revenue funds is shown below:

= Income received for providing the meals to the needy people + financing of sales tax with respect to tourist facilities maintenance in the shopping district

= $300,000 + $900,000

= $1,200,000
