cash flow statement
Hi this is a heading ('rúbrica') on a cash flow statement for a non-profit organisation. It comes under Despesas and is broken down into categories such as 'human resources' 'infrastructure' 'indirect costs' 'monitoring and evaluation etc'. I am assuming it is basically use or applications of funds (as in sources and applications of funds) but would appreciate confirmation of the best term to use in this context.
There are various examples of the use of the term, including the sentence below:
Aplicações efectuadas
Na rubrica das Aplicações efetuadas foram incorridos os seguintes gastos
it is also listed directly as follows on the summary of receipts/expenditure:
Despesas
Aplicações efectuadas (sum)
many thanks

Aplication(s) of Funds
I would translate it as "application of funds" as in "source and application of funds", according to the definition below.
source and application of funds
noun [U] ACCOUNTING
Definition
› a company's financial statement with details of where money has come from and how it has been spent during a particular period:
