| SUMMARY: | Deletion of expenditure sub-objects 4XX9. These items will no longer be coded as capital outlay purchases, but will be classified as the appropriate commodity sub-object. | |
| | ||
In past years, capital outlay purchases were classified under a dual sub-object code system which was determined by the cost of the item being purchased. Items with a useful life expectancy of one year, or more, with a cost of $75 ($20 for books), but less than $500 were classified as sub-object 4XX9 (non-inventory) and items with a useful life expectancy of one year, or more, with a cost of $500, or more, were classified as sub-object 4XX0 (inventory). To eliminate this inefficiency in coding, it has been determined that only those items with a useful life expectancy of one year, or more, with a cost of $500 (including books), or more, should be classified as "capital outlay" and maintained on inventory.
Effective with fiscal year 2000 business, the expenditure sub-object series 4XX9 will be eliminated and the definition of capital outlay will be amended to define capital outlay/inventory as any item with a useful life expectancy of one year, or more, and with a cost of $500, or more. Items purchased as fiscal year 2000 business which were previously classified as "non-inventory capital outlay" and coded 4XX9 will instead be classified as the appropriate commodity sub-object. When submitting encumbered items for DA-118 transactions for fiscal year 1999, please use the revised coding policy which eliminates the 4XX9 expenditure sub-object codes.
The following expenditure sub-object codes will be closed effective June 30, 1999. Please review all encumbrance documents that extend beyond fiscal year 1999 for this change in expenditure sub-object coding. This will expedite the processing of these encumbrance documents and help reduce the number of delays experienced during fiscal year closing.
