Introduction
General Accounting Instructions
 Article IX-D Section 2(2) of the 1987 Philippine Constitution gives the
Commission on Audit the authority to promulgate accounting rules and
regulations.
 Section 334(c) of RA 7160, otherwise known as the Local Government Code of
the Philippines, states that: “The financial records of the barangay shall be kept
in the office of the city or municipal accountant in a simplified manner as
prescribed by the Commission on Audit”. (Underscoring supplied)
 COA Resolution No. 2014-003 dated January 24, 2014 requires the adoption of
Philippine Public Sector Accounting Standards (PPSAS) by all government
agencies, hence, the need for the alignment of the barangay accounting to the
said standards.

purposes.

private purposes.

approval of proper officials.

The Accounting Plan
The barangay accounting plan shows the accounting work flow
of barangay transactions from the approved budget to
incurrence of obligations/expenditures;

collection of monies; payment of obligations/disbursements;


recording of transactions in the books of accounts; and
preparation of the financial statements and reports.
Initially, the source documents shall be the basis for preparing
reports by the Barangay Treasurer (BT). These reports together
with the source documents are the basis of recording the
transactions in the books of original entry. These are the JCT and
the GJ. Journal entries based on reports and the JEV are recorded
in the JCT or GJ and posted to the GLs and SLs. Based on the GL,
Trial Balances and the financial statements are prepared. All of
these accounting processes are undertaken by the Office of the
C/M Accountant (COA).
The Accounting Plan presents the following types of transactions:

a. Appropriations and Obligations


b. Collections and Deposits

c. Disbursements
d. Miscellaneous Transactions

The Financial Statements include the Statement of Financial Position,


Statement of Financial Performance, Statement of Net Assets/Equity,
Statement of Cash Flows, Comparative Statement of Budget and Actual
Expenditures, and Notes to Financial Statements.
