General Ledger Balance = Debits + Credits
Working Capital
Working capital is the dollar amount that the General Ledger balance differs from the Operating Ledger balance when the fiscal year closes. One example of a balance difference, creating working capital, would occur when a fund ends the fiscal year with outstanding invoices. We account for working capital by adding the calculated amount to a "Working Capital" line in the carry forward spreadsheet. Each unit is then given the opportunity to allocate the working capital to the appropriate FOPAL.
Working Capital = General Ledger Balance - Operating Ledger Balance
Total Carry Forward
Total Carry Forward is the Operating Ledger Balance plus any Working Capital.
Carry Forward Balance = Operating Ledger Balance + Working Capital (if any)
