Q1: $3,750,000
Q2:$4,500,000
Q3: $3,750,000
Q4: $3,000,000
On December 31, 201X, budgetary status reports showed expenditures of $7,500,000 and encumberances of $1,000,000. Using an accural accounting concept, what was the budgetary status of Library Systems as of that December 31 date?
As of the end of the third quarter, the Library Systems shows expenditures of $11,000,000 and has $3,000,000 in encumberances. It projects that spending in the fourth quarter will be $500,000 more than what was initially allotted for that budget period. Determine the amount of the supplemental appropriation, if any, which must be requested in order the end the fiscal year with a balanced budget.
