BASIS FOR SCHEDULES

Where the data are available in the accounting system, cost-type budgets are presented. Detailed figures for each activity or object are the value of goods and services consumed in carrying out the program, in the case of operating costs; they are the value of assets acquired, in the case of capital outlay programs.

Total obligations are always shown; activities and objects are reflected on an obligation basis where cost data are not available. Obligations refer to orders placed, contracts awarded, loan agreements made, and services received during the year, regardless of the time of payment. In the case of a few limitations which are on the basis of accrued expenditures, the detail and the totals are on that basis.

For public enterprise revolving funds, there are two additional lines showing gross expenditures and applicable receipts of the fund.

NARRATIVE STATEMENT OF PROGRAM AND PERFORMANCE

The work planned and services proposed to be carried out are described briefly in a narrative statement for each appropriation or fund. Where practicable the narrative statement indicates the expected accomplishment in relation to the financial estimates, and gives some measures of program and performance.

SCHEDULE OF OBJECT CLASSIFICATION AND PERSONNEL
SUMMARY

There is shown for each account a classification of obligations, costs, or accrued expenditures according to a uniform list of objects, as follows:

Selected resources as of June 30 are as follows: Unpaid undelivered orders, 1963, $25 thousand: 1964, $33 thousand: 1965, $33 thousand; 1966, $33 thousand.

Where cost-type budgets are presented, the relation of costs to obligations is summarized in an entry "Change in selected resources." For appropriation accounts, this entry is supported by a footnote identifying the amounts of the resources involved. For revolving funds, the items are identified on the statement of financial condition and the appended tabulation.

Where programs are financed at a "preobligation" stage (such as the "program plan" for certain Defense items, and "commitments" for some loan programs) an extra three columns provide details on that basis.

The third section of the schedule shows receipts and

The object classes reflect the nature of the things or services purchased, regardless of the purpose or the nature of the program for which they are used.

Several of the object classes are broken down into subclasses-personnel compensation, for example, is shown

separately for permanent positions, for positions other than permanent, and for certain other payments. A third digit is therefore used in the object schedules to identify the subclasses; a zero is used for the third digit when there are no subclasses. Additional entries are shown for unvouchered obligations (those for which accountability is waived; coded 91.0) and those which cannot be distributed by object class (coded 92.0), and for certain other adjusting entries to reach a total which agrees with the total obligations shown in the program and financing schedule.

A personnel summary is appended to the object classification schedule, as illustrated:

The statement includes an analysis of the retained earnings or the cumulative deficit. This analysis shows any additions to earnings, other than net income for the year, any charges made against retained earnings, and the balance of profits kept in the enterprise as of the end of the year (whether as cash, inventories, or other assets).

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

For each revolving fund there is also presented a balance sheet of assets, liabilities, and equity of the Government at the close of the year, as in this example:

[merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][subsumed][subsumed][subsumed][ocr errors][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small]

The balance sheet excludes balances of appropriations and borrowing authorizations which have not yet been paid into the revolving fund. The section on equity of the Government is divided into three subsections as appropriate: (a) interest-bearing capital, (b) non-interestbearing capital, and (c) retained earnings.

Because the balance sheet is on an accrual basis, it does not reflect the obligations incurred which have not yet matured into liabilities, nor does it reflect unfilled customer orders received and available as a basis for obligation in the case of intragovernmental revolving funds. Therefore, there is normally appended to the balance sheet an "Analysis of Government Equity" which shows obligations other than liabilities, the unobligated balance, unfilled customers' orders on hand (where relevant), and invested capital and earnings, as in the following example:
