Self-Supporting Budget: An account
that is neither state-appropriated
nor grant-funded.
Self-supporting accounts typically
generate revenue through the sale
of goods or the provision of
services. Since self-supporting
accounts are not funded by the
state, they depend upon revenues
generated or a transfer-in to cover
the costs of operation.
Self-supporting accounts are often
established for a specific purpose
so expenses charged to a self
supporting account must be directly
related to the purpose.

Any surplus from the annual
operation of a self-supporting
account carries over from one fiscal
year to the next. Unless the account
is an administrative department
funded by the dean .


Should expenditures in an account
appear to be in danger of exceeding
revenues, every attempt must be
made to reduce expenditures or to
charge them against another
appropriate revenue source.
A self-supporting account has both
a revenue budget and an
expenditure budget. The revenue
and expenditure amounts must
balance.



Self-supporting accounts may or
may not have budgets.
The Nevada System of Higher
Education (NSHE) Board of
Regents policy requires a selfsupporting budget…
ANY account that will be paying
salary dollars (including
temporary labor/student wages)
needs to be budgeted.

Estimating Budgets…
The Current Year Projected
Actual expenditures can
normally be determined by
 1) referring to the prior
year’s organization summary
by object/sub-object report.
2) ANNUALIZING
 (Annualize means divide the year
to date number by the number of
the fiscal period shown in the
CAIS report header (ex. 2014/06=
December) and multiply the result
by 12) the year to date expense
information. Keep in mind special
circumstances occurring within
the department should be
considered.
 Methods 1) or 2) can also be
used as a basis for estimating the
following year's expenditures.


3) Keep in mind special
circumstances occurring within
the department . Method
number 1) or 2) are not
appropriate in estimating the
following year’s expenses, if
there are significant changes
pending or occurring within the
department.
UNSOM budgets will be uploaded
to the Department of Planning
Budget and Analysis based on
the information entered into the
budget module. We do not
change your information.

UNSOM professional PAF’s
generated in July will be based on
the data entered between
February and April in the UNSOM
Budget Module, which also feeds
the final comprehensive position
lists (CPL) available for your
review in CAIS/HR/Look Up
Information/Comprehensive
Position Listing.


To avoid rejected Personnel
Action Forms (PAFs), it is crucial
that a budget revision be sent to
Budget & Finance for changes
you make to July 1st PAFs after
the Budget Module closes if the
change causes a net increase in
total professional salary dollars
paid from a specific account.
Note: Budget revisions for
Sponsored Project accounts
should be submitted to
Sponsored Projects.

The Planning Budget Analysis
Office will validate all positions
are linked to the account for
faculty and classified numbers
shown in the Budget Module.
◦ Links for non-pooled positions and nonsponsored project accounts will NOT roll.
◦ With these exceptions, links will be
established only for those
position/account pairings indicated in the
budget module data for the coming fiscal
year.

For classified personnel, if you
plan in the Budget Module to pay
an individual from different
accounts, at a different FTE, or
with a different salary split than
in the June 1-15th pay period
please prepare a new PAF in May
effective June 16th.


2012 PAYDATE SHIFT: Please
remember June 1 – June 30
salaries for non-hourly
professionals and graduates will
post to accounts in early July FY
15.
Hourly and classified salaries
from June 16-30 will also post in
July rather than Period 13. You
must align the PAF’s for this
period with the budgets you
establish for FY15.


Endowment income for the
following year is available each
spring for funds 1311/
1300/1301.
