Michigan Compiled Laws § 18.1451 Lapse Of Unencumbered Balance Of Appropriation; Unascertainable Documents; Charging Encumbrance To Next Succeeding Fiscal Year.

18.1451 Lapse of unencumbered balance of appropriation; unascertainable documents; charging encumbrance to next succeeding fiscal year.

Sec. 451.

(1) At the close of the fiscal year, the unencumbered balance of each appropriation shall lapse to the state fund from which it was appropriated. A document which is not ascertainable before the cutoff date set by the director may be charged against a current year's appropriation if the chief accounting officer determines that the state agency was not willful in its failure to ascertain or record the document and if the amount of the payment would not have exceeded the unencumbered balance of the applicable appropriation in the prior fiscal year.

(2) An encumbrance entered into within 15 days before the end of the fiscal year and outstanding at the close of the fiscal year is not a charge against that fiscal year but is charged to the next succeeding fiscal year.
