Reporting Requirements for Annual Financial Reports of State Agencies and Universities

Capital Assets

Sale, Disposal or Interagency transfer of Capital Assets
Recording Transfers Out of Capital Assets

When transferring capital assets between state agencies, a net increase or decrease is realized — rather than recognizing a gain or loss.

In the entries below, it is important to note there are two “Seq. No. (4).” When figuring the effect of the transfer, the transfer out agency must determine if there is a net increase in the transfer of the asset or a net decrease in the transfer of the asset. This net increase/decrease determines which T-code and COBJ to use for “Seq. No. (4).”

Example of Increase Net Assets Due to Interagency Transfer of Capital Assets Example of Decrease Net Assets Due to Interagency Transfer of Capital Assets
           
Historical Cost 10,000   Historical Cost 10,000  
Less Accumulated Depreciation (7,000)   Less Accumulated Depreciation (7,000)  
Net Book Value   3,000   Net Book Value   3,000  
Less Cash Received from Transfer Out (5,000)   Less Cash Received from Transfer Out (2,000)  
Increase on Transfer Out (2,000)   Decrease on Transfer Out   1,000  
Treatment of Increase on Transfer of Asset Treatment of Decrease on Transfer of Asset
           
Accumulated Depreciation 7,000   Accumulated Depreciation 7,000  
Cash Received from Transfer Out** 5,000   Cash Received from Transfer Out** 2,000  
Increase Interagency Transfer Out      2,000 Decrease Interagency Transfer Out 1,000  
Capital Asset    10,000 Capital Asset       10,000
