• 60 day rule• Create reserve for supplies and other
prepaids
• Reverse budgetary entry• Close actual accounts
• Debit revenue, OFS, transfers in• Credit expenditures, OFU, transfers out

Purposes of Budgets
• Planning of programs, acquisitions, resource allocations• Control and administration • Creating reports and evaluation
![Page 5: Chapter 3 1. Learn the purposes and types of budgets 2. Learn how to classify expenditures 3. Learn the budget cycle 4. Learn the benefits of budgets 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070404/56649f345503460f94c51cbe/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Types of Budgets
• Appropriation Budgets - details for current operations (this will be our main focus)• Capital Budgets- for acquisition and construction of long term assets • Flexible Budgets - relates to costs for certain levels of outputs, used to control costs in proprietary funds

Object vs. Program
Object classification is what you are used to…. Salaries, supplies, etc.
This doesn’t allow for analysis of programs
But does foster control of overall expenditures
Uses bottom up budgeting…why is this good?
Produces lots of detail
Program budgeting allows analysis of programs using program specific inputs and outputs, or SEA

Recording the Budget
Record the revenue side of the budget:
Estimated Revenues 1,000,000Budgetary Fund Balance 1,000,000
Transfers in 25,000Estimated Other Fin.Sources 500,000
Budgetary Fund Balance 525,000
Recording the budget serves as an internal control

Recording Appropriations
Budgetary Fund Balance 1,400,000Appropriations 1,300,000Other Fin. Uses 50,000Transfers Out 50,000
If the inflows > outflows, then there is a budget surplus. If the inflows < outflows,there is a budget deficit.

Execution
• Appropriations are apportioned by time periods in allocations (to agencies) then by allotment to units within the agency. • Entities, agencies integrate their budgets into their accounts. • Most agencies make sure they spend their budgets even if they stock up on supplies to insure that in the next year their budgets won’t be cut.

Analysis Budget to Actual
If an entity records a budget, part of their end of year statements includes a budget-to-actual comparisons. Use caution in assessing this because: • Budgets might have been revised • Differences in Basis• Differences in timing• Differences in reporting level (Perspective)• Differences in reporting entity

Encumbrance system
Steps in the order/receipt process:
• Purchase Request • Purchase Order• Receiving Report
• Vendor’s Invoice Paid
![Page 14: Chapter 3 1. Learn the purposes and types of budgets 2. Learn how to classify expenditures 3. Learn the budget cycle 4. Learn the benefits of budgets 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070404/56649f345503460f94c51cbe/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Purchase Order
Encumbrances 950Reserve for Encumbrances 950
This creates a reserve in the fund balance section of the balance sheet, so Fund Equity = Assigned + Fund Balance
![Page 15: Chapter 3 1. Learn the purposes and types of budgets 2. Learn how to classify expenditures 3. Learn the budget cycle 4. Learn the benefits of budgets 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070404/56649f345503460f94c51cbe/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Receipt of Order
Two Parts: Reverse the reserve for encumbrances:Reserve for Encumbrances 950
Encumbrances 950Record the receipt of the shipment: Expenditures 970
Vouchers Payable 970
Notice that the encumbrance is reversed forits original amount, not the amount of the bill

Open Encumbrances
What was shown on the previous slides assumes that orders are received within the same year and all at once.
What happens if an encumbrances is still open at the end of the fiscal year?
What happens if a partial order is received?
![Page 18: Chapter 3 1. Learn the purposes and types of budgets 2. Learn how to classify expenditures 3. Learn the budget cycle 4. Learn the benefits of budgets 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070404/56649f345503460f94c51cbe/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Open encumbrances
Think about the accounts you used to establish an encumbrance: Encumbrance
Reserve for encumbrance
The government wants to show the reserve in the fund balance section of the balance sheet, but is encumbrance an asset? Should it be closed with expenditures?
Encumbrances is like a notation, but is not a permanent account. Therefore, if an encumbrance is open at the end of the year, it needs to be closed.
![Page 19: Chapter 3 1. Learn the purposes and types of budgets 2. Learn how to classify expenditures 3. Learn the budget cycle 4. Learn the benefits of budgets 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070404/56649f345503460f94c51cbe/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Closing an encumbrance
Assume you have established an encumbrance: Encumbrance 5,000
Reserve for Encumbrance 5,000
And some of the order is received:
Reserve for encumbrance 2,500Encumbrance 2,500
Expenditure 2,500Vouchers Payable 2,500
There is still $2,500 in an encumbrance open at the end of the fiscal year. It needs to be closed.

Encumbrances, FY 2
First, reestablish the encumbrance in FY 2:
Encumbrance 2,500Unreserved Fund balance 2,500
Then complete the process as already illustrated: When the order is received:
Reserve for encumbrance 2,500Encumbrance 2,500
Expenditure 2,500Vouchers payable 2,500
![Page 21: Chapter 3 1. Learn the purposes and types of budgets 2. Learn how to classify expenditures 3. Learn the budget cycle 4. Learn the benefits of budgets 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022070404/56649f345503460f94c51cbe/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Closing an encumbrance
Close the remaining amount at the end of the fiscal year: Unreserved fund balance 2,500
Encumbrance 2,500
But what happens when the rest of the order comes in?
