Just checked my asker history and saw this was still outstanding from October! My apologies to all for the very late thank you. This answer was extremely well documented, and with Yolanda's backup, how could I go wrong? Merci infiniment a tous.

appropriation


Explanation:
emploi = appropriation

Déf. :
Se dit en matière financière lorsqu'une recette est destinée spécialement au financement d'une certaine catégorie de dépenses.

Note(s) :
Le terme emploi s'oppose au terme à ressources . Ainsi, on parlera des emplois d'une banque, ou d'un ensemble de banques, pour désigner les crédits qu'elles consentent. On utilise également le terme emplois dans les locutions emplois de trésorerie et emplois de fonds . Plus généralement, lors de l'établissement d'un tableau de financement d'une entreprise au cours d'une période donnée, les emplois de fonds correspondent : aux investissements de toute nature, aux remboursements d'emprunts, à la reconstitution et à l'augmentation du fonds de roulement éventuellement aux bénéfices distribués.

application of funds


Explanation:
I know that "application of funds" isn't very sexy, but it's definitely what the Ménard de la comptabilité has (also not sexy, but very authoritative), in multiple entries, of which I am giving you two (the others are simply combinations of that term with others):

APPLICATION OF FUNDS
UTILISATION DES FONDS; EMPLOIS (DES FONDS); AFFECTATION DES FONDS
Information financière. (vieilli) Partie de l'état de la provenance et de l'utilisation des fonds (ou tableau des emplois et des ressources) où l'on décrivait l'utilisation que l'entité avait faite de ses ressources au cours de l'exercice.

STATEMENT OF SOURCE AND APPLICATION OF FUNDS
(ÉTAT DE LA) PROVENANCE ET (DE L') UTILISATION DES FONDS (CA); TABLEAU DE FINANCEMENT (FR et BE); TABLEAU DES EMPLOIS ET DES RESSOURCES (FR)
Information financière. (vieilli) État de l'évolution de la situation financière (ou tableau de financement) qui présentait les activités survenues au cours de l'exercice dans l'optique de la variation du fonds de roulement plutôt que de la variation de la trésorerie.
