Note 21. Reconciliation of Net Cost of Operations to Budget

 

The Reconciliation of Net Cost of Operations to Budget reconciles the Department’s Resources Used to Finance Activities (first section), which consists of the budgetary basis of accounting Net Obligations plus the proprietary basis of accounting Other Resources, to the proprietary basis of accounting Net Cost of Operations. The second section, Resources Used to Finance Items Not Part of Net Cost of Operations, reverses out items included in the first section that are not included in Net Cost of Operations. The third section, Components of Net Cost of Operations that Will Not Require or Generate Resources in the Current Period, adds items included in Net Cost of Operations that are not included in the first section.

The third section’s subsection, Components Requiring or Generating Resources in Future Periods, includes costs reported in the current period that are included in the Liabilities Not Covered by Budgetary Resources reported in Note 15. This subsection does not include costs reported in prior fiscal years that are also included in Liabilities Not Covered by Budgetary Resources.

In accordance with Revised OMB Circular No. A-136, Financial Reporting Requirements, dated June 29, 2007, the Statement of Financing is presented as a footnote disclosure and is no longer a basic financial statement, as had been presented in prior years. The information provided in the FY 2006 Statement of Financing is also presented in this footnote, to provide comparative disclosures, as required. The reconciliation of net cost of operations to budget for FY 2007 and FY 2006 is as follows:
