Expense Account Number Use and Budget Concerns
Expenses should be charged to the account numbers that best categorize the expense, regardless of whether of not there is a budget reserve for that account. This will assist you in analyzing your expenditures because you will know more accurately where your funds are being spent, as opposed to the majority of expenses being put into the general supplies account. While you may appear to be over budget in one account, you will be under budget in another and the bottom line will still be the same. 下面是两个例子:
Magazine subscriptions could easily fall into the general supplies account, 然而, 如果你把它们记在账上 # 9550期刊/订阅, you could easily look at that account total at the end of the year to know how much you spent in this area as opposed to analyzing your supply account and trying to pull out these charges.
When a guest teacher or lecturer is being paid an honorarium and travel expenses, the entire amount should be charged to 客座教师费用,而不是 #9430旅行和里程. Even though you are reimbursing for travel, it is part of the guest teacher expense and should be categorized there. Account #9430 (Travel and Mileage) is for staff and faculty travel expenses only.
帐号指引
Your account number (sometimes referred to as the FOAPAL) for operating is comprised of the following elements:
基金-Orgn -Acct掠夺,活动
11 - 5300 - 9510 - 80 - 5300011
基金: Represents the purpose for which the monies are generated or used. Most transactions occur in the Current Unrestricted 基金 (11). However gifts from outside sources go to different funds such as the plant fund (for Buildings) or endowment.
组织: Represents a department of people or activities. Common ones might be the presidents office, food service or biology.
帐户: Categorizies "like" types of revenue of expense. Examples might be undergraduate tuition, salaries, general supplies, etc. As note in the first section of this page just because a budget is in one account doesn't mean the item should be charged there.
计划: Represents the main function a particular department serves. 项目 are divided between expenses and revenues. The biology department's main purpose is Instructional. Therefore there main program is 70. The president's main purpose is Institutional Support. 因此这个程序是80. Most departments only have one main expense function even though some of their activity could cross program lines.
活动: Represents a more detailed breakout of the Account component. A department could use this to breakout certain activities or separate costs by teacher.
地点: 目前未使用.
Therefore it is important for each department to know their account number components. If these are used incorrectly they must be corrected at a later time by either the department or the financial records office. Please observe the following section carefully. If you have questions please contact one of the accountants:
When you formulate an account number for an IDC or check request there is a direct correlation between the program code and the account number. 一个简单的规则 总是 申请收入和其他 总是 申请费用:
收入的数字: The Account Code will always start with an 8 whereas the Program Code will always start with a 5 or 6. Unless your organization code begins with a '9' there can be no other combination.
费用数字: The Account Code will always start with a 9 whereas the Program Code will always be 70 or higher. Once again there can be no other combination unless your organization code begins with a '9'.
收入账户 (11-xxxx -8xxx -5x或 6x) should not be charged on a cash/check request or an IDC unless you are processing a refund of monies you originally deposited to that account. Even though you may have money in an income account to offset certain costs, expense accounts should be used and then netted against the income account.
工资账户 numbers (#91xx或 #92xx) should never be used on a cash/check request. These accounts are used through payroll only. Either an expense goes through payroll (i.e. 非盟雇员)或者它是一个 客座教师费用(#9612) or 合同服务(#9613).
专业会员资格(#9356) may be used for an individuals membership to an organization.
Organization Memberships (#9712) may be used for a membership for the university or a department.
Most expense account numbers are self-explanatory by their title. The use of the accounts is for the most part decided by each department. A list of commonly used expense accounts is included in this web page. Any questions on which account number to be used can be answered by the staff accountants.
