Fiscal Anatomy
of a State or Local Government Program
State and local government financial managers know that
their accounting and financial management systems are
unique. But how can the differences be explained to new
personnel? Do program managers understand how their
activities fit into the big picture? Do auditors of
government programs understand the nuances of encumbrances,
appropriations and allotments? This course is designed to
highlight the differences in accounting and financial
management at the state and local level versus the private
sector. The course follows a program from its
inception—adoption by appropriation—to budget execution,
which includes establishing allotments and allocations,
processing personnel and payroll, procuring goods, services
and capital, and revenue processing. The timeline for the
program is approximately 24 months—from budget development
through the GAAP reporting requirements—even though the
actual activity takes place in one fiscal year.
