This series is submitted to the Budget Division upon the approval of the state budget and before the beginning of the new fiscal year. The series is comprised of four to five componets, EBO-8, EBO-10, the Monthly Operations Report, the Budget Variance Report, and often EBO-101. EBO-8 is the operations plan completed by each state agency for each program and program element. It is a guide to the agency's expenditures by major object code by quarter. EBO-10 is the quarterly performance report, it compares budget performance indictors with actual figures on a quarterly basis. The Monthly Operations Report is a computer generated report similar to EBO-8. It is generated for each agency at the beginning and end of each fiscal year and is generated at other times during the fiscal year only for departments which have made appropriation/allotment changes during any given month. The Budget Variance Report is generated monthly for each agency comparing actual expenditures of each program and element with budgeted expenditures and provides a percentage of variance. EBO-101 is created and a copy of it filed when an agency requests an allotment/appropriation change in a program. These changes are also reflected in a Monthly Operations Report which is generated for the month that the change is requested.
