Community College has an operating fund, a scholarship fund and an endowment fund.
Community College has an operating fund, a scholarship fund and an endowment fund. All scholarship donations are taken to the endowment fund and the contributions are invested to earn investment income. Some donors have stipulated that their endowments must be protected against inflation by using investment income to increase the endowment balance to keep pace with inflation. Other donors have specified that all investment income is to be used for scholarships.
On January 1, 2017, the first year of the fund, endowment contributions of $2,000,000 were received, of which half required that the endowment be protected against inflation. All donations were invested in fixed interest securities and the investment income for the year totalled $100,000. Inflation for 2017 was at 2.5%.
On December 31, 2017, scholarships in the amount of $65,000 were awarded at a scholarship ceremony. All scholarships were paid to the recipients by cheques drawn on the scholarship fund bank account.

Clearly indicate the fund to which each journal entry will be posted.
