funds, up to the reserve account maximum. For purposes of this section, “earned funds” are those for which the required number of eligible service units have been provided.

A California state preschool program contracting agency may retain a reserve fund balance equal to 15 percent of the sum of the maximum reimbursable amounts of all California state preschool program contracts, or two thousand
dollars ($2,000), whichever is greater.
(c)
Each contractor’s audit shall identify any funds earned by the contractor for each contract through the provision of contracted services in excess of funds expended.
