  • Proprietary Funds

    Funds used to account for a government's business-type activities. There are two types of proprietary funds – enterprise funds and internal service funds. Both enterprise and internal service funds recover the full cost of providing services (including capital costs) through fees and charges on those who use their services. (Washington State, 2010)
