Transporation Fund Other Budgeted Funds (chart) Budget Timeline and Q&A
5
Terminology and Concepts
Why do we use separate funds? to account separately for resources affected by different types of spending restrictions because financial reporting standards require it Fund accounting Each fund has a self-balancing set of accounts (debits = credits) to keep the cash flow, revenues, expenditures and equity segregated from the other funds. It is desirable to have as few funds as legal and sound administrative requirements make possible.
6
Terminology and Concepts 20-9-201, MCA Fund Definitions
BUDGETED FUNDS NON-BUDGETED FUNDS Trustees must adopt a budget to spend money Local property tax levies are a common revenue source No budget is needed to spend money Expenditures are limited to cash available in the fund ( , MCA) No tax revenues Voted Levy – hold an election to obtain voter approval “Permissive” (non-voted) Levy - voter approval not required

Terminology and Concepts “Budget Authority” vs. “Cash”
Budget amounts are estimates of what you intend to receive in revenue and what you intend to spend to operate the school for the year. , MCA: Trustees must formally approve (adopt) an expenditure budget in order to spend money during the fiscal year (July 1 – June 30). Total expenditures made (or liabilities incurred) during the year must be within the approved budget. The actual amount of money you have on hand to spend! Consider this: “Not everyone pays their tax bill on time.” (revenue doesn’t come in when you expect it to) “Stuff happens!” (unanticipated events = unanticipated expenditures
10
Terminology and Concepts “Budget Authority” vs. “Cash”
“Budget” means spending authority— NOT “cash”!

AVERAGE NUMBER BELONGING (ANB)
General Fund - ANB AVERAGE NUMBER BELONGING (ANB) FALL ENROLLMENT (1ST Monday in October) Part-time Students = ¼, ½, or ¾ Example: Oct count = 150 Feb count = 166 ( ) 2 = 158 187 180 = 165 ANB Total of 2 counts divided by 2 180 + PIR Days* 180 = ANB X SPRING ENROLLMENT (1st Monday in February) Part-time Students = ¼, ½, or ¾ X *PIR Days are “pupil instruction related” days for teacher in-service training and recordkeeping

(see section 1. Certified ANB on budget data sheet)
General Fund - ANB Use the ANB that generates the greatest maximum general fund budget: Current Year ANB (CY ANB) ANB for the budget unit for the ensuing school year (FY2020 ANB is based on FY2019 enrollment counts) 3-Year Average ANB Add current year ANB to the current ANB for the previous two school fiscal years and divide by 3 (FY2020 ANB is the average of FY2019, FY2018 and FY2017) (see section 1. Certified ANB on budget data sheet)

State Guaranteed Tax Base Aid (GTB) State subsidy for BASE mills Eligibility is based on the ratio between the district’s taxable value and the district’s GTB Budget Area as compared to the statewide taxable value X 224% and the GTB Budget Areas of all districts statewide. Districts with a ratio lower than the statewide ratio qualify for GTB aid. NEW in FY2020 OPI pays General Fund GTB to districts in December and May
