5. UKRAINE MINISTRY OF FINANCE Accounting Method in Ukraine’s Public Sector Ukraine law does not presently define uniform accounting and reporting methods in the public sector Accounting for execution of the state and local budgets is conducted by Ukraine Treasury authorities using the cash method with elements of the accrual method for certain operations (accounting for the public debt and liabilities of the administrators of budgetary resources) Accounting for execution of budgetary entities’ budgets is conducted by the administrators of budgetary resources using a modified accrual method Accounting for state mandatory universal social insurance funds is based on a modified accrual method (uniform accounting methods established by the State Treasury are not used). Financial and budgetary reports on the execution of budgets are divided into: financial: quarterly annual budgetary: monthly quarterly annual Slide 5

6. Reporting Period for Reports The reporting period for monthly budgetary reports is the period beginning January 1 and ending on the last day of the reporting month The reporting period for quarterly financial and budgetary reports is the period beginning January 1 and ending on the last day of the reporting quarter The reporting period for annual financial and budgetary reports is the budgetary period constituting one calendar year beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31 of the same year, unless a different period is defined in instances established by law Slide 6 UKRAINE MINISTRY OF FINANCE

7. The Chart of Accounts for state and local budgets is governed by a legal regulatory act; Development of the Chart of Accounts took into account the distinctive features of the execution of state and local budgets, the operation of the unified treasury account, and the servicing of local budgets through Treasury authorities, in compliance with general accounting and reporting principles and requirements; The Chart of Accounts provides for the reflection in accounting of operations associated with performance of the functions assigned to Treasury authorities, i.e., it makes possible detailed and complete accounting for all banking and other operations associated with execution of the budgets; The Chart of Accounts has been developed to provide for accounting operations entailed in the execution of the state budget and local budgets operations using the cash method, and for the preparation of financial reports The Chart of Accounts employs a decimal method of encoding accounts with a four-digit number. Under that method, all classes are divided into 10 sections, which are assigned numbers from 0 to 9. All sections, in turn, are divided into no more than 10 groups, which are also assigned numbers from 0 to 9. Each group is divided into no more than 10 accounts. Such an approach meets the requirements of the Ukraine National Bank with regard to the structure of accounts and number of digits, according to which the number of a balance-sheet account must have 4 digits while analytical accounts that are used in the Ukraine National Bank’s electronic payments system must have from 6 to 14 digits. 7 Chart of Accounts for Execution of State and Local Budgets Slide 7 UKRAINE MINISTRY OF FINANCE

8. Slide 8 Chart of Accounts in Budgetary Entities Accounting in budgetary entities provides for the reflection of all operations associated with execution of their budgets. The timely, complete and accurate reflection on the entities’ balance sheets makes it possible for their officials to take well-founded managerial decisions, analyze an entity’s (organization’s) work, monitor the use of budgetary resources for their intended purposes on the basis of an approved budget, and detect unlawful and unforeseen expenditures Budget execution accounting in entities and organizations whose principal activities are financed out of state or local budget resources is based on the Chart of Accounts for budgetary entities approved in the December 10, 1999, Order No. 114 of the Chief Administration of the Ukraine State Treasury, registered with the Ukraine Ministry of Justice on December 20, 1999, No. 890/4183 The Chart of Accounts uses a decimal method of encoding accounts with a three- figure number (first-level subaccount). All accounts are divided into 2 sections. Section І comprises balance-sheet accounts, which are divided into 8 classes. Section II comprises off-balance-sheet accounts, which include one class 0, “Off-balance-sheet accounts” The Chart of Accounts for a state mandatory universal social insurance fund is approved in a legal regulatory act of that fund.
