Chapter 4-GAAP Adjustments & Reclassifications Not Requiring Information from the C.O.
This Chapter describes GAAP entries that campuses must create from their own source records
Chapter 5 describes GAAP entries that campuses must record for which the C.O. has the source data
These entries convert accounting information from State legal/budgetary (modified accrual) to GAAP (full accrual) basis
All sections and entries will be covered – all questions welcomed
If questions arise after this session, post them to the Financial Standards list serve: [email protected]

Chapter 4-GAAP Adjustments & Reclassifications Not Requiring Information from the C.O.
TYPES OF ADJUSTMENTS Permanent adjustments
Timing adjustments
Campuses that are using PeopleSoft Financials version 8.4 will create a separate business unit for the purpose of recording GAAP adjustments and then generating resulting financial statements from their adjusted PeopleSoft data.
5
Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Validating Beginning Trial Balance
PS 8.4 campuses no longer need to make entries to “re-establish” beginning Net Assets if GAAP business unit was used to record or convert PY balances.
=======================================
If a GAAP business unit was not used to record or convert PY balances, then an analysis of PY GAAP adjustments must be performed to determine the effect on CY beginning Net Assets. CY adjustments need to be recorded to re-establish the CY beginning Net Assets. (See 2003-2004 GAAP Manual)
6
Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Validating Beginning Trial Balance
After issuance of your PY GAAP Financial Statements, the prior fiscal year GAP ledger should be closed
This will establish you Beginning CY GAAP balances into Period 0 of the current fiscal year for the GAP Ledger
Queries should be immediately run to verify the completeness and accuracy of the closing
The CY Period 0 balances should agree to you “Final” PY GAAP Reporting Package balances
7
Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Validating Beginning Trial Balance
If beginning GAAP Trial Balance does not agree to the preceding year’s final “Post Closing” Trial Balance, this situation indicates a problem with the Year-End Closing process for the preceding year GAAP Ledger. The problem could be the result of the following circumstances:
Not all prior year GAAP adjustments were posted before the Year-End Closing process was run.
The Year-End Close Rules have not been set up correctly.
The “Account Types” “Roll-Forward” checkbox has been incorrectly configured.
There is an application problem (“bug”).
After correcting the circumstances, the Year-End Close Request should be reprocessed and the beginning Trial Balance re-validated

Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Reversing PY GAAP Adjustments
Which of the following PY GAAP adjustments would require that a reversing adjustment be made in CY to properly report CY balances?
1. DR Accounts Payable, CR Operating Expense for $250,000
2. DR Tuition and Fees, CR Scholarships and Grants for $50,000
3. DR Investments, CR Fund Balance-Clearing for $750,000

Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Reversing PY GAAP Adjustments
“Gross change” vs. “net change” adjustments
Can use either method –adjustments from C.O. using “net change”
COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE
Campus X had prepaid expenses of $100,000 at 6/30/PY and $150,000 at 6/30/CY. What GAAP adjustment(s) would it have recorded at 6/30/CY to reflect the $150,000 of CY prepaid expenses:
Using the “gross change” method? Using the “net change” method?
13
Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Reversing PY GAAP Adjustments
COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE (cont.)
Both methods work – the key is to verify that after all CY GAAP adjustments have been made, the adjusted balances agree with the expected 6/30/CY amounts
14
Section 4-1 – Net Assets: Reversing PY GAAP Adjustments
The following is a list of reversing entries and reference to the sections where these entries are illustrated:
Library Book Disposals (refer to Section 4-2)
Faculty Payroll Accruals (refer to Section 4-7)
Unrecorded (as of Legal CYE) Liabilities
“Gross Method” Entries: Prepaid Expenses and Inventories (refer to Section
4-6)
Compensated Absences (refer to Section 4-8)
Deferred Revenues (refer to Section 4-9)
15
Section 4-2: Capital Assets and Depreciation
ADDITIONS
Legal – expense payments in operating net assets category, capitalize in Invested in Capital Assets category with offset to net assets.
GAAP – capitalize asset with offset to liability or cash.
GAAP permanent adjustment needed to eliminate entries to net assets and expense (see manual for full entry and net assets categories).
Dr. Net assets
Cr. Operating expense
16
Section 4-2: Capital Assets and Depreciation
DEPRECIATION
Legal – record accumulated depreciation with offset to net assets.
GAAP – record depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation.
GAAP permanent adjustment required to record depreciation expense.
DR Depreciation expense
CR Net assets
17
Section 4-2: Capital Assets and Depreciation
DISPOSALS
Legal – delete cost and accumulated depreciation, with offset to net assets.
GAAP – delete cost and accumulated depreciation, with offset to loss on sale.
GAAP permanent adjustment required to record loss on sale.
Dr. Other non-operating revenue/expense
Cr. Net assets
GAAP timing adjustment is often required to accrue library book dispositions recorded in the following fiscal year on legal basis books.
18
Section 4-3: Accounts Payable: Encumbrances and Obligations
Encumbrances are no longer accounted for in the Actuals ledger; therefore, a GAAP adjustment is no longer required for governmental funds
In the first year of PS 8.4, one final adjustment is recorded to eliminate the current year reversal of prior year expenses related to encumbrances of governmental (General/Capital Outlay) funds 001, 574, 6028, 6041
Obligations are purchase commitments in which receipt of goods or services has occurred as of June 30
Recording of retention relating to capital projects are specific to each campus, but must be included as obligations.
Obligations and retention are timing adjustments, assuming that purchase commitments are valid and receipt ultimately occurs
19
Section 4-4: State and CSU Receivables and State Appropriations
For legal (budgetary) basis accounting, State appropriations in governmental funds (e.g.: 0001, 0574, 6028) are neither revenue nor expense, but they allow campuses to charge expenditures up to the amount appropriated
For GAAP, such appropriations are treated as revenue – the GAAP entries reflect permanent differences from legal basis
GAAP revenue is either “capital” (e.g.: Funds 0574 and 6028) or “non-capital” (e.g.: Fund 0001) – different Net Asset Categories and Natural Classifications
Adjusted appropriation revenue must agree with amounts per C.O., except for de-allocations and reverting appropriations
Unexpended portion of appropriations becomes a receivable – must agree with 6/30 RSA per State Controller’s records
Lottery Fund no longer receives allocation orders – unexpended portion of previous appropriations should be recorded in Trust Fund 481 and treated as “Investments”
20
Section 4-4: State and CSU Receivables and State Appropriations
“Net change” method for recording CY GAAP revenue provides more reliable results when appropriations may revert
Need to have SAM06 reports for current and prior year, and extract BBA at 6/30 for both years and CYTD actuals
Record 7/1/CY A/R per p. 4-20 (top), CY appropriations revenue per pages 4-20 (bottom) and 4-21
Appropriations receivable are reduced by 6/30/CY pre-closing balance of Fund Balance Clearing – discussed in Section 4-5
Allocation orders don’t always mean appropriation revenue for GAAP (e.g. for transfers to Fund 0576) – see page 4-21
Reclass Fund 0576 transfers to A/R (Restricted net assets)
21
SECTION 4-5: Fund Balance-Clearing
Fund Balance-Clearing postings represent SCO revenues and expenses recorded on behalf of CSU – these SCO transactions either give the CSU more available money to spend through the State (e.g. remittances, interest income, transfers into a fund) or reduce what had been available to spend (e.g. claim schedules, payroll, fund transfers out)
For GAAP, these postings either add to or reduce campus assets (Appropriations Receivable, Investments, or Cash depending upon whether the fund receives State appropriations)
Need to reclassify Pre-Closing Fund Balance-Clearing to appropriate asset line by Net Asset Category

SECTION 4-10: Capital Lease Obligations
Legal and GAAP – leased assets are capitalized (see section 4-2) if one of four conditions is met.
Legal – no liability recorded; payments are expensed. GAAP – liability is recorded at inception; payments are
charged to principal and interest. GAAP permanent adjustment is needed at inception to
record the obligation.
Dr. Net assets
Cr. Capitalized lease obligations – current
Cr. Capitalized lease obligations - noncurrent
GAAP permanent adjustment is needed each year to reclassify annual payments (see manual for full entry and Net Asset Categories).
Dr. Capitalized lease obligations – current
Dr. Interest on capital related debt
Cr. Operating expenses

SECTION 4-11: Tuition Discounting
In legal basis records, all scholarships and grants disbursed to or on behalf of students are recorded as expense, including the portion that is used to pay University fees
For GAAP, the portion that is used to pay fee charges is to be reclassed as a contra-revenue item, “Scholarship Allowances”
If a campus’ student information system can not directly determine the amount of Scholarship Allowances, an “Alternate Method” has been developed
GAAP Manual includes all steps in Alternate Method – the basic student account equation is (G) + (E) = (A) + (B) + (C) + (D) + (F)
(A), (B), (C) and (F) can result in refunds to students, (E)
(B) and (F) are reported as expenses or contra-revenue; (A) and (C) are not
31
SECTION 4-11: Tuition Discounting
The sum of (B) and (F) must be reported either as contra-revenue (Scholarship Allowances) or expense (Scholarships and Grants)
(K) is the same % of (B) + (F)…as (G) is of (H) – makes sense!
32
SECTION 4-11: Tuition Discounting
Things to remember in applying either “direct” or Alternate method:
Account for all sources of aid that might be used to pay fees or be given to students
Reclassify all fee waivers (whether or not given to employees) as scholarship/grant expense before doing calculation: debit expense, credit fees
Allocate scholarship allowances between tuition and fees and auxiliary enterprise revenue wherever possible
GAAP entries will cross net asset categories, as restricted scholarship and grants expense will become contra-revenue to unrestricted fee revenue – offset w/transfers
The GAAP adjustments related to Scholarship Allowances are reclassification entries that do not affect Net Assets
33
SECTION 4-12: Other Accounting Topics
Record GAAP adjustments as necessary to eliminate double-counting of revenue and expense:
Reimbursed Activities (FIRMS Program 1100): auxiliary organization and interfund reimbursements
Student Union Fee Revenue: also reported by auxiliary
SUG/EOP Grants: revenue/expense recorded twice
GAAP adjustments needed re: SMIF Interest for 1/1/-6/30/CY if AD-NOAT issued after legal basis close
Treatment of student loans receivable – all noncurrent
Allowance for Uncollectible Federal Perkins or Nursing Loan Programs
