What is a budget?
A Budget is a list of planned revenue and expenditures used as a tool for assessing performance and providing for internal management controls.
Page 4
Why do we budget?
Budgets create a structure for both planning operations (hiring, major equipment purchases, moves, etc.) for the coming year and assessing actual performance throughout the year.
Page 5
When do we need to budget?
There are three primary ‘budget triggers’:Board of Regent Requirements
Position Control Requirements
Fund (the first four digits of the account number) Requirements
Page 6
Board of Regents requirements
Each fiscal year all self-supporting budgets with total budgeted expenditures greater than $25,000 must be approved by the Board of Regents.
For budgeting purposes, ‘total budgeted expenditures’ excludes expense objects 39 (recharge), VT (voluntary transfers out) and 79 (reserves). All other expense objects (10,11,12...25,30 and so on) are included in the $25,000. In other words, if the amount on is over $25,000, the budget will be submitted to the Board of Regents.

Position Control requirements
A budget must be in the system before any wages or salaries can be paid from expense object codes:
10 (Letter of Appointment with or without benefits) 11 (Professional) 12 (Graduate) 14 (Classified) 15 (Student Wages/Temporary Labor). Remember fringe (obj. 16) must be budgeted
Page 9
Fund requirements
The following funds require that a budget be in place before any expenditure activity can be processed: 1201, 1202, 1204, 1206, 1208,1210, 1211,1212, 1213,1300,1317,1318, 1319, 1407, 1504, 1505, 1506, 1700,1701, 1702, 1703, 1704, 1705, 1708, 1709, 1711, 1712 Once an account is part of a budget required fund, it remains in that fund, even if activity decreases below $25,000 per year.

Fund requirements Continued…
The Controller’s Office can only change an account to a budget required fund as part of the ‘fiscal year opening’ procedures. You may request that an account be moved to a ‘budget required’ fund if you find expenditures or encumbrances are frequently occurring before revenues are received. The Budget Office may request that an account be changed to a ‘budget required’ fund if both current year actual expenditures and projected expenditures are > $25,000 or if the trend over the past few years indicates the account will be reportable to the Board of RegentsPlease remember to change the account numbers on all employment documents and in the comprehensive position lists (via CBE) if the fund is changed to a ‘budget required fund’.

Who prepares the budget?
Preparing an effective budget requires a joint effort between the people responsible for managing the fiscal operations (tracking purchases, making deposits, processing PAFs and budget revisions) and those who understand and manage the non-financial activities giving rise to the account. These non-financial activities include generating the revenues, managing projects, determining when renovations, relocations or equipment replacements will occur.

Forecasting Methods
Self-Supporting Budget Request Form 2
Page 31
Forecasting Methods
• Straight three year average:• ($200,000(YR1) + $220,000(YR2) + $215,000(YR3)) / 3 = $211,667
• Three year weighted average:• ($200,000(YR1) x .5) + ($220,000(YR2) x .3) + ($215,000(YR3) x .2) =
$209,000• Current YTD plus previous year actual:
• $150,000(Current year to date as of end of February) + $45,000(Previous year actual March-June) = $195,000
• Current YTD annualized:• $150,000 YTD at end of February / 8 months x 12 months = $225,000
• Current YTD:• Sometimes, revenue/expense occurs in a very compressed time frame
so current YTD is a reasonable amount.
These are just a few forecasting methods. You may develop one that works well for your particular budget.

Self-Supporting Budget Request Recharge
This is the budget submitted to PBA by the original due date.
At the start of each August, PBA makes automatic budget revisions to all budgeted accounts to make the budgeted balance forward equal to the current appropriation.
Recharge Accounts: Recharge accounts are used to account for services charged by one department to another department. We put the reimbursement amounts in an expense object (39) so we don’t double count revenue in our financial statements. Each recharge account may carry two months of operating cash without having to adjust recharge rates or justify them to the Controller. For this account, this limitation would be calculated as follows: The sum of A(expenses in objects 10-30)/12 mos x 2 mos.=$62,479. This means that up to $62,479 may be budgeted in reserves(object 79) in addition to any “prepaid” amounts relating to ongoing operations.
