16  insert:

17         (i)  In order to provide financial information that is

18  comparable to that reported for other public schools, charter

19  schools are to maintain all financial records which constitute

20  their accounting system in accordance with the accounts and

21  codes prescribed in the most recent issuance of the

22  publication titled "Financial and Program Cost Accounting and

23  Reporting for Florida Schools." Charter schools are to provide

24  annual financial report and program cost report information in

25  the state-required formats for inclusion in district reporting

26  in compliance with s. 236.02(1). Charter schools which are

27  operated by a municipality or are a component unit of a parent

28  nonprofit organization may use the accounting system of the

29  municipality or the parent, but must reformat this information

30  for reporting according to this paragraph.
