2009-2010 Budget

The State of Nebraska has five fund types in which the budget is appropriated.

General Fund- Used for activities funded by general tax dollars, primarily sales and income taxes.

Cash Fund- Used to account for the revenues and expenditures that are related to activities with sources outside state government, such as account interest. Some funds in agencies such as Aeronautics and Roads are expended through the cash fund and then reimbursed by the Federal Government.

Federal Fund- Used to account for the activities related to the receipt and disbursement of funds received from the Federal Government. These funds are spent on Aid to Education, Medicaid, as well as other projects and programs.

Construction Funds- Used to account for the activities related to the acquisition of facilities or their construction. Spending on these projects is almost entirely made up of transfers from the General Fund.

Revolving Funds- Used to account for the financing of goods or services provided from one state agency to another on a cost-reimbursement basis. (Example: An agency renting a vehicle from the Department of Administrative Services Motor Pool)
