MI Department of Treasury Uniform Chart of Accounts
Expenditures and Other Financing Uses Account Numbers

The Expenditures and Other Financing Uses account numbers provide a standardized framework for classifying and reporting local government expenditures, including personnel services, supplies, other services and charges, capital outlay, debt service, and other financing uses. Expenditure/Expense Control Account 700 represents the total of all expenditure and other financing uses accounts. Each expenditure category has a designated sub-control account that may be used independently or to summarize its associated account numbers. To find a specific account, use the table's search feature to enter an account number, expenditure category, account name, or keyword.

Additional Guidance

The following guidance provides additional information on specific expenditure classifications and account number usage.

Personnel Services: Account numbers 702–725 may be used to provide additional detail for salaries, wages, and fringe benefits. Examples include compensation for elected and appointed officials, permanent and temporary employees, overtime, employer Social Security contributions, insurance, retirement contributions, workers' compensation, and other employee benefits.

Supplies: Account numbers 727–799 may be assigned to additional supply classifications as needed, including office supplies, operating supplies, medical supplies, maintenance supplies, and repair supplies.

Capital Outlay: (Capital Outlay Sub-Control Account 970) Account numbers 971–989 may be used to provide additional detail for expenditures resulting in the acquisition of or addition to capital assets. Amounts recorded must align with the local unit's capitalization policy and equal the additions recorded in its general capital asset records.

Debt Service: Account numbers 991–994 are designated for principal and interest payments. If debt issuance costs need to be recorded, use one of the designated interest accounts.
