  12. Budgeting • Best Practice • Involve cafeteria managers in preparing budget • Communicate with district finance officer for benefit rates, salary increases • Base budget on actual expenditures in current year plus any known increases/decreases • Budget must be approved by School Board and governing body

  13. Budget Amendments • Review budgeted amounts to actual expenditures at least quarterly • Finance office should provide monthly revenue and expenditure reports to School Nutrition • Submit a budget amendment • If salary expenditures expected to exceed budget • New grant revenue and expenditures • If total expenditures are projected to exceed budget amount for the category (i.e. 73100) • Amendments must be approved by: • Board of Education (all) • Governing body (everything except line item transfers)

  14. Commodity Reporting • Commodity Reporting – Centralized • Revenue – 47112 USDA - Commodities • Expenditures – 469 USDA – Commodities • Budget amendment and journal entries will be necessary to record commodities • No separate report in eReporting required

  15. Commodity Reporting • Commodity Reporting – Non-Centralized • Report as part of Non-centralized report in eReporting • New line item created for commodity revenue and expenditures - 84100 • No separate commodity report in eReporting required

  16. Reporting Timelines • Original budget – July 1 • Budget amendments • Approved by Board of Education and governing body by June 30 • Plan ahead – do not wait until the school year ends • Annual Financial Report – August 1 in eReporting • Non-centralized Cafeteria Report – August 1 in eReporting

  17. INDIRECT COST • What are Indirect Costs?—costs incurred for common or joint purposes. Indirect costs benefit more than one program and cannot be readily identified with a single program. • Examples of indirect costs— • Attendance Director • Finance Department • Cost of Audit • Worker’s Comp Insurance • Maintenance and Operations costs

  18. Indirect Cost • What are Direct costs?—costs that benefit a single program, costs that are identified with a single program. • Examples of direct costs— • Teacher’s salaries and benefits • Instructional materials and supplies • Professional development • Direct Administrative costs • Food Costs for School Nutrition

  19. Indirect cost • Calculation of Rate— Indirect Costs__________ Direct Costs-Excluded Expenditures Excluded expenditures (calculated at the system level) include equipment, food purchases, trustee commission, transfers out.

  20. Indirect cost • Restricted Rate • Lower than Non-restricted Rate • Limits the amount of general management costs that can be included in the indirect cost pool (numerator.) • Treats as direct costs • Director of Schools administrative costs • Maintenance • Operations • Used for other Federal Projects calculations

  21. Indirect Cost • Non-restricted Rate • Higher than Restricted Rate • Treats as direct costs • Director of Schools administrative costs • Maintenance • Operations • Used for School Nutrition calculations

  22. Indirect cost • Using your non-restricted Indirect Cost Rate, calculate the Indirect Cost to pay to your General Purpose fund: Total School Nutrition Expenditures -Food Expenditures -Equipment Expenditures = Expenditure Base X Non-restricted Rate = Calculated Indirect Cost

  23. Indirect cost • An example… • $1,000,000 School Nutrition Expenditures • - $300,000 Food Expenditures • - $100,000 Equipment Expenditures • = $600,000 Expenditure Base • X 12.0% Non-restricted Indirect Cost Rate • = $72,000 Calculated Indirect Cost

  24. Indirect Cost • May take indirect cost ONLY IF there is an excess operating balance (3 months operating expenditures) • May take indirect cost up to amount of year end excess operating balance only • In prior example, if excess balance was $70,000, then indirect cost on only $70,000 may be taken.

  25. Indirect cost • Which year’s rate do I use? • Use the appropriate rate for that fiscal year…. • Expenditures from July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012—use the FY 12 rate. • Expenditures from July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013—use the FY 13 rate. • When budgeting—use the rate for upcoming fiscal year. • If you do not pay indirect costs prior to June 30, setup a payable in Fund 143 and a receivable in General Purpose. • Check would be written after June 30 from the payable account. Deposit into GP receivable account.

  26. Indirect Cost • NOTE: • If you do take an indirect cost, you may have to recalculate the indirect cost rate IF some of the expenditures included are charged directly to the School Nutrition Program • Example – SNP pays full cost of 3 maintenance workers, parts, vehicles, gasoline, etc. – would have to be taken out of indirect cost calculation since this is a direct cost • Fiscal Consultant will recalculate if necessary
