Accounting

The accounting process recording financial


transactions includes summarizing, analyzing,
and reporting these transactions to oversight
agencies, regulators, and tax collection entities.
Government Accounting

encompasses the process of analyzing,


recording, classifying, summarizing and
communicating all transactions involving the

Entity refers to a government agency, department of operating
unit. Each entity maintains accounting books and budget records. Each
entity reconciles to accounting books with cash records for Bureau of the
Treasury (BTr) and reconciles budget records with the Department of
Budget and Management (DBM). The entity’s accounting books are
subject to Audit by the Commission on Audit (COA) by submitting the
financial reports for consolidation for submission to the Congress and to
the President.
Government

Accounting
Agencies (NGA’s)
Learning
Objectives
At the end of the lesson student aims to
understand GAM for NGAs
1. Identify the standard, policies, guidelines
and procedures in accounting for
government funds and property;
2. Understand the coding structure of
accounts; and
3. Familiarize accounting books, registries,
records, forms, reports and financial
statements.
*The Government Accounting Manual (GAM) for National
Accounting Agencies (NGA’s)

• It contains general provisions, basic standards and policies, the specific


guidelines and procedures for each standard and the illustrative entries for
typical transactions of national government agencies.
• Historically, there was existing government accounting system for five
decades. This was change to NGA’s or New Government Accounting System
in 2002 and lead to Government Accounting Manual (GAM) in January 2016.
• These reforms and changes happens in order to adapt and be responsive to
the dynamics of modern technology. Moreover, to have a consistent
government accounting system, creating international standards which was
the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS).
• The IPSAS are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in
order to prevent disallowances of the uses of government funds through
irregular, unnecessary, extravagant and excessive expenditures.
Accounts maintained under NGAS

Equation
W h a t ’s n e w ?
Asset = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity
P1000 = P 600 + P400

Type of characters involves in the Accounting


a. Business = Ikaw
b. Asset = Pag-aari ng business
c. Liability = Utang ng business sa iba
d. Owner’s Equity = Utang ng business sa may ari
(owner)
Question: Is the business and owner the same?
Answer: No, with the use of Accounting Equation, we will understand that
the business and owner is not the same.
A = L + OE
Explanation:
Business = Buy and Sell
Question: When the money came from?
a. Loan to other person or bank (Ex. P600)
b. Loan to the owner (Ex. P400)
P600 + P400 = P1,1000 ( That is total money of the business)
L + OE = A
In this form, the business and the owner is the same, but in
substance, business needs to loan at own.
Example 1 (Asset)
Buy a laptop and paid for P 30,000.

Entry: Equipment P 30,000


Cash P 30,000

Therefore: Debit is equipment because you owned the


laptop.
Debit (Kapag nagkaroon ng “asset o bagay”).
Credit is cash because you paid for the laptop.
Credit (Kapag nabawasan ng “asset o pera”).
Example 2 (Liability)
Buy a laptop but in the form of loan for P 30,000.

Entry: Equipment P 30,000


Accounts Payable P 30,000

Therefore: Debit is Equipment because you paid the laptop using


loan.
Debit (Kapag nawalan ng utang).
Credit is Accounts Payable because you use loan to buy.
Credit (Kapag nagkaroon ng utang).
Example 3
Paid loan for P 30,000.

Entry: Accounts Payable P 30,000


Cash P 30,000

Therefore: Debit is Accounts Payable because you paid what you


owe.
Debit (Nawalan ng utang).
Credit is Cash because you paid money.
Credit (Nawalan ng pera pambayad).
Example 4
Use the equipment for business in accounting tutorial but for collection P
20,000.

Entry: Accounts Receivable P 20,000


Service Income P 20,000

Therefore: Debit is Accounts Receivable because you collected cash for


loan.
Debit (Nagkaroon ng pa-utang).
Credit is Service Income because you earn income.
Credit (Nagkaroon ng kita).
Example 5
Collect the payment for service rendered P 20,000.

Entry: Cash P 20,000


Accounts Receivable P 20,000

Therefore: Debit is Cash because you collected cash for the service
rendered.
Debit (Nagkaroon ng pera).
Credit is Accounts Receivable because you collected cash for
service rendered.
Credit (Nawalan ng pa-utang).
Example 6
Paid rental for the tutorial amounting to P 10,000.

Entry: Rent Expense P 10,000


Cash P 10,000

Therefore: Debit is Rent Expense because you paid for rental


use.
Debit (Nagkaroon ng gastusin).
Credit is Cash because you paid money.
Credit (Nawalan ng pera).
Therefore, in business point of view,

Decrease in Asset Increase in Asset


- payment of loan - gain asset for the business that
- decrease asset due to payment of came from the loan due to
loan investment of creditor
- decrease asset due to payment of - gain asset for the business that
loan came from the initial capital or
- withdrawal of capital of the owner investment of the owner
expenses
Equity/Capital = Investment + Revenue – Expense – Drawing

• Increase in Equity

- equity increases if the revenue is more than the expense

(Net income).

- equity increases if there is an additional cash for the business.

• Decrease in Equity

- equity decreases if the expense is more than the revenue (Net Loss).

- equity decreases if the cash return to the owner for withdrawal.

The Dual Role of the Accounting System

a. Government accounting plays a vital role in the government


financial system.

• The information provided by the financial statements are bases for making decisions.
A government accounting system basically serves two purposes: accountability and
management requirements.
The Dual Role of the Accounting System
b. Accountability
• In government, money is made available and expended to serve the public good. In
here, accounting and financial management systems are established as key points of
control. Accountability requirements are satisfied in part by internal controls dealing
with the handling of financial transactions. Such controls are set up to ensure that all
financial transactions are handled in compliance with applicable laws and regulations,
and that all assets, funds and resources are safeguarded against waste, loss or
improper use.
The Dual Role of the Accounting System
c. Management requirements
• Government accounting is an integral element of the public finance system. It is
relevant to management for decision-making in the areas of planning, budgeting and
a basis for internal control. The accounting system provides data useful for
administrative control of program operations and for the evaluation of planned
performance and accomplishment of program objectives. Government accounting is
seen mainly as an accountability device for public receipts and expenditures.
Performance measurement and managerial functions seem, however, to be
neglected.

This constitutes the citizen-stockholders of the government corporation.
A basic principle of popular government is that all public officials shall be held to
a rigid accountability for the manner in which they perform their duties.
2. Legislature.

3. Government officials.
The duty of government officials is not to direct actual operations but to
exercise supervision and control over those who have the duty to ensure that they
are performing their duties in compliance with law and in a satisfactory manner.
4. Donors and lending institutions.
These are the parties providing government with loans and donations.
They are either other governments that can be national and international entities.
Comparison of
Government
and
Commercial
Accounting
Similarities:
Commercial and government accounting are similar in many ways, based on the
following aspects:

1. Both are concerned with controlling and reporting on financial position, results of
operations and changes in financial position.
2. Both emphasize relevance, reliability, comparability, consistency, materiality,
understandability,
historical cost information, and completed transactions.
3. Both are concerned with safeguarding assets, assigning stewardship responsibility for
individual resources, and providing information for internal and external decision making.
Similarities:
4. Both apply the following accounting principles:
- double-entry, that for every entry made to the debit side of the account/s, an entry or
entries for a corresponding amount will be made to the credit side of an account/s.
- accrual basis of accounting under which transactions are recognized when they occur,
regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
- mechanics of accounting procedures where transactions are recorded from data
contained in the accounting documents. The information is first placed in the books of
original entry (journal) from which it is posted in the general ledger and subsidiary ledgers.
-proper classification of account to facilitate the preparation of the financial statements and
the conduct of audit.
Differences:
Although there are many similarities between commercial and governmental
accounting, there are also certain basic differences which stem from the
following factors:

a. Purpose – lack of profit motive in government. Government exists to render service to the
public at the lowest possible cost while a private business enterprise exists to
maximize economic profit. These profits are retained for public use aside from
rendering public service.
b. Ownership – government obtains most of financing from involuntary taxpayer resource
providers, and every citizen may be said to have a “share” in government
assets but no individual can dispose of his “shares” and realize a return from
it.
Differences:
c. Management – the necessity of complying with legal provisions. Government transactions
are governed by specific laws, rules and regulations which result in
limitations imposed under which revenue may be earned, debts are
incurred and expenditures made. An accounting system of a government
unit is designed to show not only financial position and operations but also
the extent of compliance with legal provisions.
d. Income – The government derives its income mostly from taxes and fees that the estimated
amount of which is made as the basis of allotting the national budget to different
agencies. Limitations on the ways by which the government may secure and use
its income require the use of fund accounting so that money is spent for the
specific purpose for which it was granted.

The
accounting
cycle
The primary objectives To meet these primary
of the accounting function are to objectives, a series of steps or
process financial information and sequence of activities is required
to prepare financial statements from the analysis of transactions
at the end of the accounting through closing the books, known
period. collectively as the accounting
cycle.
Steps of the accounting cycle

Analyze transactions and business documents.


 An event or condition that has an economic impact or
effect on the entity’s financial condition. A business
deal or agreement. Business documents. Records that
are evidence of transactions.
 The transaction is identified through a source
document such as receipt/disbursement voucher
which provides the date, amount, description and
name/address of the party if necessary. The
transaction is analyzed, determining which accounts
are affected, how (increase or decrease), and how
much.
Steps of the accounting cycle

Journalize transactions
• It is an accounting record in which business transactions
are entered in a chronological order. The journal is
commonly referred to as the book of original entry.
• Each entry in the journal is called a journal entry and
represents a different business transaction. Each
transaction is recorded only once as a debit and a credit.
Every journal entry involves a three-step process:
· Identify the accounts involved with an event or
transaction.
· Determine whether each account increased or
decreased.
· Determine the amount by which each account was
affected
Steps of the accounting cycle

Post journal entries to ledger accounts.


-process of transferring amounts from the journal to the
general ledger.
Ledger - a collection of accounts in which data from
transactions recorded in the journals are posted, classified
and summarized

Determine account balances and prepare a trial balance.


A trial balance is a report that lists the
balances of all general ledger accounts of a accompany
at a certain point of time. It is primarily used to identify the
balance of debits and credits and provide as a means to
assure that the books are “in balance” and that total
debits and total credits are equal. The trial balance uses
the information from the general ledger to summarize the
data to be used in preparing the Financial Statements.
Steps of the accounting cycle

Journalize and post adjusting entries.


Adjusting entries are required at the end of each
accounting period for accrual basis of accounting in
order to record any unrecognized income or expenses for
the period. It happens prior to the preparation of the
financial statements. When a transaction is started in one
accounting period and ended in a later period, an
adjusting journal entry is required to properly account for
the transaction.
Moreover, adjusting journal entries can also refer to
financial reporting that corrects a mistake made
previously in the accounting period.
The purposes for adjusting entries are to:

a. brings balance sheet accounts to be current


b. reflects proper amounts of revenues, costs, and expenses in the income statement.
Under the matching principle, adjustments should be made for economic activities
that have taken place but are not yet recorded at the time when the financial
statements are prepared. In other words, adjusting journal entries are used to record
transactions that have occurred but have not yet been appropriately recorded in
accordance with the accrual method of accounting.
Items that should be adjusted are:

· Earned revenues not yet recorded as assets and income at the end of the
accounting period.
Examples: receivables for revenues already earned but not yet collected nor billed as
of the year end.

· Assets, portion of which shall be recorded as expense of the agency at the end of the
accounting period. Examples: prepaid expenses, bad debts and depreciation.

A worksheet is prepared before


the construction of financial statements
and before the adjusting entries are
entered in the journal and posted. Also
used to summarize all the information
necessary to complete the end-of-period
financial reports and prepare other
financial analyses.
Steps on preparing a
Worksheet
a.) Prepare an adjusted trial balance.
After the accounts have been adjusted
and posted, an adjusted trial balance is prepared
to prove the accuracy of the postings to the
general ledger.

b.) Prepare financial statements.


Financial statements are prepared after
the trial balance has been adjusted. The financial
statements required under NGAS are balance
sheet, statement of income and expenses,
statement of government equity (not required for
local government units), and statement of cash
flows.

4. Statement of Cash Flows
2. Statement of Income and Expenses The financial statement that

The financial statement that for a specific period, normally a year.
summarizes revenues and expenses for
a specific period, usually a month or a
year. This statement is also called a
Profit and Loss Statement or an
Operating Statement.
Steps on preparing a
Worksheet
c.) Journalize and post-closing entries
After the Statement of Income and
Expenses has been prepared, the nominal or
temporary and intermediate accounts are closed
at the end of the accounting period.
d.) Prepare post-closing trial balance
The post-closing trial balance is prepared
after recording the closing journal entries in the
general journal and posting to the general ledger. It
contains a listing of all general ledger accounts that
remain open after the closing process is completed

PROJECT, ACTIVITIES
AND PROGRAM
PROJECT, ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAM
• The objective of projects, activities, and programs describes the various stages of the
planning process in the framework of Results Based Management. The document includes
directions on how to integrate and execute this method in real-world settings. It explains
the major components of RBM as well as references to the agency's concerns.
• Philippine government aims to improve the lives of vulnerable people by harnessing the
power of humanity affected by dangers, disasters, or other barriers to their well-being.
There is frequently an unequal power balance between humanitarian groups and the
people they aim to serve, as well as a lack of regulation in humanitarian practice. Results-
based approaches to job management can enable them to fulfill this duty effectively and
fairly.
PROJECT, ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAM

• Results - Based Management (RBM) – refers to overall approach in managing projects,


activities and programs that focuses on defining measurable results and the methodologies
and tools to achieve it.
- It supports better performance and greater accountability by applying a clear logic: plan,
manage and measure an intervention with a focus on the results you want to achieve.
• Results – intended or unintended effects of an intervention. They can be positive or
negative depending on multiple factors. Intended positive results are used as the basis of
planning, while an effort is made to anticipate any potential negative results so that they
can be avoided or minimized.
• Objectives – intended results of an intervention
PROJECT, ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAM

• Results and objectives can be classified according to their level of importance, with the
lower-level objectives defining the changes that need to occur in order for the higher-
level objectives to be achieved. By setting out in advance the intended results of an
intervention and ways in which to measure whether they are achieved or not, it can be
seen more clearly whether a difference has genuinely been made for the people
concerned.
• The projects, activities and programs can be used to implement a results-based approach
that help and define the design and management of an intervention. The phases are
broadly progressive, with each one leading to the next and also interrelated and may at
times overlap. The duration of activities is important in relation to each phase will vary
depending on the context.
PROJECT, ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAM
• Initial assessment – may be needed to obtain supplementary information during the
planning phase. This phase is a process to understand the current situation and find out
whether or not an intervention is required. This is done by identifying the key factors
influencing the situation including problems and their causes, as well as the needs,
interests, capacities and constraints of the different stakeholders.

When an intervention is required, an assessment can include an initial analysis and


proposal of the type of intervention that could be carried out. It is a process to define an
intervention’s intended results (objectives), the inputs and activities needed to accomplish
them, the indicators to measure their achievement, and the key assumptions that can affect
the achievement of the objectives.
PROJECT, ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAM

• Planning – takes into consideration the needs, interests, resources, mandates and capacities of
the implementing organization and various stakeholders. At the end of planning phase, a
project plan is ready to be implemented.
• During implementation of projects, activities and programs are carried out to achieve the
intended results (objectives) to each particular area of intervention with detailed guidance on
implementation can therefore be found in manuals.
Implementation and Monitoring

During implementation of projects, activities and programs


are carried out to achieve the intended results (objectives) to each
particular area of intervention with detailed guidance on
implementation can therefore be found in manuals.
What is monitoring?

“Monitoring” is defined the routine


collection and analysis of information in order
to track progress, check compliance and make
informed decisions for projects activities and
programs.

Monitoring systems should be


established during the planning phase to allow
collection of information on the progress made
in achieving the objectives during
implementation.
Implementation and Monitoring

Evaluation is defined as an assessment of a systematic ongoing or


completed projects, activities and programs or policy, its design,
implementation, and results aim is to determine the relevance and fulfilment of
objectives developmental efficiency, effectiveness, impact, and sustainability.
An evaluation should provide information that is credible and useful
process in identifying the purposes of evaluation at various stages of the
project, activities, and programs.
Intervention
Intervention implies that an administration is compelled to determine exchange
disputes between market players, sharing the financial dangers straightforwardly or in a
roundabout way and giving up the job of the referee. The advantage of government
intervention is the chance of decreasing expected political risk, and the expense is that
such an administration needs to prepare public or private assets to share the
corresponding economic risks.
Importance of tools and techniques in intervention includes:
• Involvement of the people that intervention seeks to help and address
• Relevant participation of all those involved in different aspects of the planning
• Involvement of those who will implement the intervention
• Decision-makers in governance
• Decision-makers in management
• Stakeholders of organization involved
Intervention

In developing an intervention, it is vital to have a scope of the:


• Outline of the analytical tools and techniques that will be use
• Analysis of stakeholders
• Problems and causes
• Objectives
• Alternative options for intervention

The results of the intervention may vary from time to time depends on the variables and
factors at stake, but it is very important to understand the fundamentals of intervention that
can be a key in addressing the problems that the administration will face.

MAP
Planning

Planning consists of determining solutions


to an unsatisfactory situation by identifying the results
that will best address identified problems and needs,
and the actions and resources required to achieve
those results. It is the foundation of good
performance management and accountability.
Planning can also be seen as a process of
choosing from the different courses of action
available and of prioritizing the steps to take in order
to change a particular situation for the better.
Strategic Planning

Strategic planning is the process of deciding where an organization wants to get


to and why, then choosing from the different courses of action available to ensure the best
chance of getting there. It helps an organization to define a clear way forward in response
to emerging opportunities and challenges, while maintaining coherence and long-term
sustainability. It guides the overall direction of an organization by defining its vision and
mission and the goals or strategic objectives necessary to achieve them.

Strategic planning also includes choosing and designing a framework which sets
out the best courses of action to achieve the stated objectives.
Operational Planning
Operational planning is the process of determining how the objectives spelt out in
the strategic plan will be achieved “on the ground”. It usually covers the short term
(between several months and three years).
A plan is the highest level of operational planning (e.g., for a geographical area
or for a technical area) which several groups’ programs (and their respective projects,
activities, etc.) with a view to achieve part of an organization’s strategic objectives.
A program is a set of coordinated projects implemented to meet specific
objectives within defined time, cost and performance parameters. Programs aimed at
achieving a common goal under a common entity (country plan, operation, alliance, etc.).
An activity is a combination of several tasks, all of which target the same
objective. This is the lowest level of actions that need to be planned. Tasks are the simplest
actions that make up activities.
Planning Phase
It is an intervention’s intended results (objectives), the inputs and activities
needed to accomplish them, the indicators to measure their achievement, and the key
assumptions that can affect the achievement of the results (objectives).

Planning takes into


consideration the needs, interests,
resources, mandates and capacities of the
implementing organization and various
stakeholders.
Stages in Planning Phase
1. ANALYSIS STAGE

• Identifying the main strengths, interests, needs, constraints and opportunities of the
implementing team and of key stakeholders.
• Identifying the problems that need to be solved and their causes and consequences.
• Development of objectives involves on the identified problems and verifying the cause-
effect relationships in order to achieve the main objective.

Analysis stage aims to understand in more detail the information gathered during
the assessment phase. The conclusions and recommendations of the assessment should be
used as the basis for a more detailed analysis of the problems to be tackled.

If the information collected appears to be inaccurate, incomplete or biased, it


may be necessary to redo some of the assessment steps, using the relevant methodology
and tools.
Tools to analyze the situation in which a team intends to
intervene:
1. Stakeholder analysis 2. SWOT analysis

2. DESIGN STAGE

• Design stage involves refining the intervention’s objectives, identifying the assumptions,
indicators and means of measuring them, and developing a summary of activities.
• This involves determining the sequence of activities, estimating their duration, setting
milestones and assigning responsibilities.

LESSON 3:
THE BUDGET
PROCESS
Learning Objectives

 At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:

 To provide structure in the agency budgeting that offers useful guidance in


designing an agency’s programs, activities, and projects.
 To provide allocation for efficient utilization of the agency’s resources in
implementing plans, programs, and activities.
 To measure agency performance which serves as a practical basis for evaluating
an agency’s performance.
INTRODUCTION
*The National Budget
T h e N at i o n a l B u d get

The National Budget is crafted with the primary objective of bringing about
a positive transformation through the implementation of successful change and
development towards the achievement of providing for the life of people based on
credible and disciplined policies guarantees for long-term fiscal sustainability. The key
to sustaining the country’s growth is to ensure that our limited resources from
improved revenue collections and sustainable borrowings are the country’s strategic
priorities of the government.
T h e N at i o n a l B u d get

 Government budgeting is the allocation of public funds to attain the economic


and social goals of the country. It also entails the management of government
expenditures to create the most impact from the production and delivery of
goods and services.
 Government budgeting is important because it enables the government to plan
and manage its financial resources to support the implementation of various
programs and projects that best promote the development of the country.
Through the budget, the government can prioritize and put into action its plans,
programs, and policies within the constraints of its financial capability.
W h at i s i t ?

Budget

• Is the government’s plan for a year. It is a table of/ schedule of expenditures, based
on either obligation or cash concepts and the corresponding sources of financing,
either from revenues, borrowings, or cash drawdown. Eventually, it is a toll that
enables the government to achieve its development agenda.

• Budgeting for the national government involves four (4) distinct phases: budget
preparation, budget legislation or authorization, budget execution or
implementation and budget accountability.
*BUDGET
CYCLE
*Budget Cycle
There are four phases in managing the national Budget.
 Budget Preparation
 Budget Legislation
 Budget Execution
 Budget Accountability

During the preparation phase, the Executive prepares the proposed National Budget. This
is followed by the legislation phase where the Congress authorizes the General
Appropriations Act. In the execution phase, agencies utilize their approved budgets and
during the accountability phase, the executive monitors and evaluates the use of the
budget.

*BUDGET
PREPARATION
BUDGET PREPARATION

This starts with the Budget Call and ends with the President's submission of the
proposed budget to Congress.

 What is the Budget Call?


 What is Early Preparation?
 What is Stakeholder Engagement?
 What is "Bottom-Up" Budgeting?
 What are Technical Budget Hearings?
 What is the Executive Review?
 What is Consolidation, Validation, and Confirmation?
 What is a Presentation to President and Cabinet?
 What is the President's Budget?
1. The Budget Call
• At the beginning of the budget preparation year, the Department of
Budget and Management (DBM) issues the National Budget Call to all
agencies (including state universities and colleges) and a separate
Corporate Budget Call to all GOCCS and GFls.
• The Budget Call contains budget parameters (including macroeconomic
and fiscal targets and agency budget ceilings) as set beforehand by the
Development Budget Coordination Committee (DBCC): and policy
guidelines and procedures in the preparation and submission of agency
budget proposals.
Early Preparation
• Under the Aquino Administration, the DBM has
established a new tradition of beginning the Budget
Preparation phase earlier, to ensure that the
National Budget is enacted on time. Under the new
Budget Preparation Calendar, the Budget Call is
issued in December (versus around April in the past);
and the submission of the President's budget a day
after the State of the Nation Address (in contrast to
earlier practice where it is submitted during the late
in the 30-day window that the Constitution
prescribes).
2. Stakeholder Engagement
A new feature in budget preparations which
seeks to increase citizen participation in the budget
process, departments and agencies are tasked to
partner with civil society organizations (CSOS) and
other citizen stakeholders as they prepare their
agency budget proposals.
This new process, which was piloted in the
preparation of the 2012 National Budget, is now
being expanded towards institutionalization.
Department and GOCCs mandated to conduct
consultations
Bottom-up Budgeting

• For the first time in history, the National Budget for 2013 will be
prepared using a breakthrough "bottom-up" approach. As
opposed to the conventional way of allocating resources from
top to bottom, grassroots communities will be engaged in
designing the National Budget.
• The Aquino government, through the Cabinet Cluster on
Human Development and Poverty Reduction, has identified
300 to 400 of the poorest municipalities and will engage these
in crafting community-level poverty reduction and
empowerment plans. This initial salvo of "bottom-up"
budgeting will focus on rural development programs and the
conditional cash transfer program, and will thus involve DA,
DAR, DENR, DSWD, DepEd and DoH. These agencies will then
include the community plans in their proposed budgets.
Along these Cabinet Members will make commitments on programs and projects that they
will deliver. These decisions and commitments are then summarized in a budget priority framework that
will guide all agencies in crafting their respective Budget proposals and priorities.

3RD TECHNICAL HEARING (February to April)

Once the department and agencies submit their Agency Budget Ceiling (ABC) to the
DBM, the latter will call technical Budget Hearings where the agencies defend their proposed budgets
before a technical panel of DBM, based on performance indicators on output targets and absorptive
capacity.

4TH EXECUTIVE REVIEW (May to June)

The recommendations are presented before Executive Review Board which is composed
of the DBM Secretary and Senior officials.

5th CONSOLIDATION, VALIDATION and CONFIRMATION (end of June)

DBM then consolidates the recommended agency budgets and recommendations into a
National Expenditure Program (NEP) and a Budget Expenditures and Sources of Financing
(BESF). Heads of major departments are invited to this meeting.
6th PRESENTATION to PRESIDENT and CABINET (July)

The proposed budget is presented by DBM, together with the DBCC, to the President
and the Cabinet for further refinements or reprioritization. After the President and Cabinet approve
the proposed National Expenditure Plan, the DBM prepares and finalizes the budget documents to
be submitted to Congress.

7th PRESIDENTS BUDGET

Budget Expenditures and Sources of Financing (BESF)-mandated by the constitution, this contains
the macroeconomic assumptions, public sector context, breakdown of the expenditures
and funding sources for the fiscal year and two previous years.
National Expenditure Program (NEP) - this contains the details of spending for each department and
agency by program, activity or project, and is submitted in the form of a proposed General
Appropriations Act.
Documents included in the President Budget:

1. Book of Outputs - seeks to show the link between the budget and the
outcomes and outputs from the government activities.

1. Details of Selected Programs and Projects - this contains a more detailed


disaggregation of key programs, projects and activities in the NEP, especially
those in line with the national government’s development plan.

1. Staffing Summary - this contains a summary of the staffing complement of


each department and agency, including number of positions and amounts
allocated for the same.
Example of Staffing Summary:

Government funds shall only be spent in pursuance of an appropriation called the "budget authorization
phase". This starts upon the House Speaker’s receipt of the President’s budget and ends with the President’s
approval of the GAA.
1st House Deliberations (August to November)

- In plenary, the GAB is presented and defended by the Appropriations Committee and Sub-Committee
Chairmen, and the GAB is approved on 2nd and 3rd reading before transmission to the Senate.
2nd Senate Deliberations (August to November)

- Budget deliberations in the Senate formally begin after the House of Representatives transmits the GAB.
The Senate Finance Committee and Sub-Committee usually start hearings while the House is still in the
process of deliberating and thereafter approves on 2nd and 3rd reading.
3rd Bicameral Deliberations

- After both Houses of Congress have finished their deliberations, the Committee will discuss the
conflicting provisions of the House and Senate versions of GAB.
4th Ratification and Enrollment

- The harmonized or “Bicam” version is then submitted to both houses, which will then vote to
ratify the final GAB for submission to the president. Once submitted to the President for his
approval, the GAB is considered enrolled
5th The Veto Message

- The President and DBM review the GAB and prepare a Veto Message, where the budget
items subjected to direct veto or conditional implementation are identified, and where
general observation are made. Under the Constitution, the GAB is the only legislative measure
where the President can impose a line-veto.
6th Enactment - December

- The budget legislation phase ends when the General Appropriation Act (GAA) is signed by
the President as law. Ideally, enactment should happen not later than December 31 of the
GAA’s fiscal year. Otherwise, the previous year’s budget is reenacted in part, if the new
budget is approved not approved on time, it is re-enacted in full if no new budget is
approved at all.
III
*Budget
Execution
A process by which the financial resources made available
to an agency are directed and controlled toward achieving
the purposes and objects for which budgets were
approved.
Budget Execution

This is where the people’s money is actually spent. As soon as the


GAA is enacted, the government can implement its priority programs and
projects which the agency conduct pre procurement activities on August
of previous year for submission of Monthly Disbursement Program for
October of previous years.

This phase happens alongside the Budget execution phase. Through budget accountability, the DBM
monitors the efficiency of fund utilization, assesses agency performance and provides a vital basis for reforms
and new policies.

1st Performance targets and Outcomes

- Agencies are held accountable not only for how they use public funds ethically, but also on how they attain
performance targets and outcomes using available resources.

2nd Budget and Financial Accountability Reports (BFARS)

- Submitted by agencies on a monthly and quarterly basis. Required reports that show how agencies used their
funds and which identify their corresponding physical accomplishments.
3 Review of Agency Performance
rd

- The DBM regularly reviews the financial and physical performance of agencies. Actual utilization funds and
physical accomplishments as indicated in the agencies BFARS’s are evaluated against their targets as
identified via OPIF and in the agency’s BEDs.
4th Audit

- Auditing is not within the DBM’s jurisdiction and instead lodged under COA. Nonetheless,
auditing is critical in ensuring agency accountability in the use of public funds. DBM uses COA’s
audit reports in confirming agency performance, determining budgetary levels for agencies and
addressing issues in fund usage.

So when we say,

BY - Budget Year ( Current year + 1 year)

PY – Prior Year ( Current year – 1 year)

The government fiscal policies on budget affects the economy through the following
macroeconomic indicators (persistent rise in the general price level of goods and services):

- Increase in the GDP growth (measures the total output within the geographic boundaries of
the country, regardless of the nationality of the entities producing the output.
- Increase in inflation rate
- Increase in merchandise imports
- Increase in interest rates
- Depreciation in foreign exchange rate
The Budget and the TRAIN

To fund the priority social services and infrastructure programs, the Tax
Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Law transform the current complex and
unjust tax system to one that is simpler, fairer and most efficient way to promote fund
collection which aims to raise the significant revenues in support for the spending on
low income families and individuals.

Of the total gains from TRAIN, 70% will fund infrastructure projects (Build, Build,
Build Program – concreting of national and local roads, road access to isolated
barangays and sitios and irrigation of farm lands ) while 30% will go to social services
(program for sugar farmers and social mitigating features which is the health and
education for a 100% enrollment and completion rates for all levels, classroom built and
teachers hired and establishing hospital and upgrading local hospitals)
Fe at u re s o f T R A I N

 Reduction of income taxes for 99% of income tax payers on the 13th month pay and
other bonuses amounting to P90,000 are tax exempt.
 Broadening of the consumption tax base

 Protection of the environment by increasing the excise tax on dirty fuel.
 Updating of the excise tax on automobiles, coal, cosmetics and cigarettes.
Government spending can be classified using the Classification of the Functions of
the Government (COFOG) system which takes considerations to the nature of the
expenditure of an agency.

Criteria in Keeping the Accounts of Government

The following are the criteria in keeping the accounts of the government:

a) The accounts of an agency shall be kept in such detail as is necessary to meet


the needs of the agency and at the same time be adequate to furnish the
information needed by fiscal or control agencies of the government.
b) The highest standards of honesty, objectivity and consistency shall be
observed in the keeping of accounts to safeguard against inaccurate or
misleading information.
In all countries, regardless of the overall approach, the accounting practices used
and the data developed should satisfy the following criteria:

 Simplicity. The accounting system should include those records that serve
significant purpose. Excessive details and unnecessary records should be
avoided. There should be no evidence of “accounting for accounting’s sake.”

 Timely, accurate, reliable and meaningful data in relation to an identified need.


All transactions that occur within an accounting period should be recorded in
accounts and reflected in reports which are available shortly after the close of
the period. Recorded data should accurately describe the financial transactions
and results that will avoid misleading reports.

 Usefulness of financial data. The data can be used for the purposes of
accountability or management. To serve these purposes, the data must be
promptly presented, properly organized, clearly reported, impartial and its
significance and usefulness clearly understood by all stakeholders, so that they
are effectively utilized for management purposes.
Recording of Transactions

 Each government agency records its financial transactions and operations in


conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and in
accordance with pertinent laws and regulations.

 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The body of principles


that governs the accounting for financial transactions underlying the
preparation of a set of financial statements.
Fund Accounting
System
A system used by non-profit organizations,
particularly governments, to ensure
compliance with laws and regulations.
Fund Accounting System
The main purpose is stewardship of financial resources received and
expended in compliance with legal requirements. There is no profit motive,
“accountability” is measured instead of profitability.

Terminologies
 Financial reporting - directed at the public rather than investors.

 The accounting equation is Assets = Resources on Assets.

 Fund - self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources.
Fund distinguished from Cash and Appropriation
 Cash is the sum of money in the treasury or in the bank and is only one
type of asset composing a fund.
 When using the term fund, it should not be confused with cash and
appropriation.
 A fund consists of all resources, including cash, which have been created
or designated for a particular purpose only.

Appropriation
 Appropriation is an authorization made by law or other legislative enactment directing the
payment of goods and services out of government funds under specified conditions or for
a specified purpose.

 An appropriation is always made by a legislative body.

 No expenditures may be made out of certain funds, i.e., the general fund, without an
appropriation.

 A single appropriation may be made out of several funds.


Sources of appropriations:
1. New General Appropriations refer to the portion of National Budget submitted
annually every fiscal to congress for legislation and approval. These appropriations
consist of the:

• Programmed New General Appropriations refer with the landmark shift to cash-
based budgeting which limits new appropriations to only program, activities
and projects (PAPs) for the year allocated for department/agencies and
Special Purpose Funds.

• Unprogrammed New General Appropriations refer to standby authorities


granted by Congress to be released once revenue collections in any one of the
support for foreign assisted projects, support to GOCCs, payment of pension
and gratuities and others.

2. Automatic Appropriations, funds are covered by outstanding legislation which do


not require periodic action by the Congress and need not be included in the
legislation of the annual budget.
Basis or Method of
Accounting
Methods of Accounting
The method of recognizing revenues and expenses is known as the basis of
accounting. Regardless of the measurement focus used, it refers to the timing of the
recognition of revenues and expenditures in the accounts and those reported in the
financial statements.

Terminologies
 Transactions are recognized when they occur, regardless of the timing of
accompanying cash flows, using the accrual method of accounting.
 Revenues are recognized and quantified in the accounting period in which they
are earned. If an expense is measurable, it is recognized at the time it is incurred.
The accrual method of accounting is used to accurately match income and
spending in the appropriate period.
 Transactions are only recognized when cash changes hands under the cash basis
of accounting. When cash is received, revenues are recorded in the accounts,
and when cash is dispensed, expenditures are documented.
 Assets and liabilities not deriving from cash transactions are not recognized in
cash basis financial statements.
Important Accounting Basis/Methods, Definitions, and Concepts

 The amount of money paid for products and services is referred to as expenditure.
It also involves the enactment of a legal responsibility to pay.

 The cost of goods and services spent in the process of achieving the
organization's goals is referred to as expenses.

 Amounts of an asset used (e.g. depreciation) or a liability incurred (e.g. creditor's


amount) are used to calculate them.
Budgetary
Accounts System

Budgetary Accounts System under NGAS
The Budgetary Accounts System encompasses the processes
of preparing Agency Budget Matrix (ABM) monitoring and recording of allotments.
• It received by the agency from the Department of Budget and Management

• In releasing the Sub-Allotment Release Order (SubSARO) to Regional Offices
to the Central Office;
• Issuance of Sub-SARO to Operating Units by the Regional Office; and
• Recording and monitoring of obligations

Agency Budget Matrix (ABM) - A document showing the disaggregation of


agency expenditures into components like, among others, by source of
appropriations, by allotment class, and by need of clearance.

Allotment Release Order (ARO) - A formal document issued by the DBM to


the head of the agency containing the authorization, conditions and
amount of an agency allocation.
Appropriation
- is an authorization made by law or other legislative enactment for payments to be
made with funds of the government under specified conditions and/or for specified
purposes.

Kinds of Appropriation
1. Annual Appropriations
2. Special Appropriations
3. Supplementary Appropriations
4. Interim Appropriations
5. Continuing Appropriations
6. Standing Appropriations or Automatic
Appropriations
Terminologies

 Allotment - is an authorization issued by authorities (the DBM for national


government agencies or the Local Chief Executive (LCE) for LGUs) to an
agency/LGU which allows it to incur obligations within a specified amount that is,
within a legislative appropriation.

 Notice of Cash Allocation - is an authorization issued by the DBM to an agency to


withdraw cash from the Bureau of the Treasury to pay expenses incurred, purchases
of materials and fixed assets, payment of payables, and other authorized
disbursements thru the issuance of MDS Checks or other modes of disbursements.

 Obligations - are commitments by a government agency arising from an act of a


duly authorized government officer binding the government to incur expenses,
purchases and other operational requirements of the agency and the immediate or
eventual payment of a sum of money.

of Accounts
Chart of Accounts
It provides the framework within which the accounting records are constructed. It is
a list of general ledger accounts consisting of real and nominal accounts. (it
contains the accounts name, a brief description of the account, and an account
number.)
