1 7.17 IMPREST FUND (Petty Cash) PROCEDURES (1) PURPOSE. To provide a uniform method for replenishing a Petty Cash Imprest Fund for direct disbursements. (2) POLICY. It is the policy of Milwaukee County to limit disbursements from a Petty Cash Fund to only those items that cannot be paid for in the regularly prescribed manner or when normal purchasing procedures are not practical. (3) AUTHORITIES. Milwaukee County Ordinance has established and authorized the creation of Petty Cash funds. Section 15.17(2) provides a schedule of authorized funds and designates whether an Imprest Fund can be banked (checking account). (a) When allowed by Ordinance, the decision to use a bank is at the discretion of the department head. The decision to use a checking account should be supported by an analysis of expected activity and bank service charges. The Cash Investment Manager in the Treasurer s Office can assist in this analysis. (b) The Comptroller in the Office of the Comptroller, has set the Petty Cash limit for a single item purchase at $ Exceptions to this limit must be approved by the Office of the Comptroller. (c) The purchase authority granted here shall not be used for repetitive, consecutive or project purchases if the intent is to circumvent the administrative procedures relating to Purchase Orders. This would include repeated purchases of a single item where the unit cost times the quantity exceeds $50, or the purchase of materials for a project that exceeds $50 is a broken down to individual unit costs of $50 or less. (4) RESPONSIBILITIES. (a) It is the responsibility of the department head to designate an Imprest Fund Cashier, whose name must be submitted to the Office of the Comptroller, Accounts Payable Division, on an Authorized Signature Card, Form 6854 (see Appendix C). 1. To insure proper segregation of duties, the Imprest Fund Cashier must be someone who does not have cash handling responsibility for departmental receipts. (b) It is also the responsibility of the department head to assign an individual other than the Imprest Fund Cashier to reconcile and audit the Petty Cash fund no less than twice per year. (c) It is also the responsibility of the department head, or his/her designated representative, to sign and authorize the Petty Cash Replenishment Request, Form 2410, (Appendix B). This individual s name must be submitted to the Office of the Comptroller Accounts Payable Division, on an Authorization for Petty Cash Disbursement forms, with receipts attached. (d) In general, cash advances from the Petty Cash fund are not permitted. Exceptions to this policy must be signed and approved by the department head. The cashing of personal checks is strictly prohibited
2 (e) Funds maintained in cash must be secured in a locked area. (f) At all times, the petty cash fund must be supported by available funds and approved Authorization for Petty Cash Disbursement forms, with receipts attached. (5) PROCEDURES. (a) Reimbursement from Petty Cash. 1. An employee requesting a petty cash disbursement must fill out (in ink/or type) the form Authorization for Petty Cash Disbursement, Form #3146 (see Appendix A).
