Schedule of Spending

The Schedule of Spending provides an accessible and easily understandable financial summary of how and where agencies are spending money for the reporting period. As shown in Table 50, an overview of how much money AOC had available to spend, how or on what that money was spent, and who the money went to for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. The data for the Schedule of Spending is the same used to prepare the Statement of Budgetary Resources (SBR). The Schedule of Spending provides a more detailed summary of the “Obligations Incurred” line shown on the Statement of Budgetary Resources. “What Money is Available to Spend?” compares to the SBR’s total resources, factoring the amounts for funds available and unavailable. The term “spend,” as used in this report, means funds paid out or used. It does not equate to expenses as reported in the Statement of Net Cost.
