PROBLEM 7-45______

Suppose you are the controller of Western Idaho State University. The university president, Willa Redcloud, is preparing for her annual fund-raising campaign for 2004-2005. To set an appropriate target, she has asked you to prepare a budget for the academic year. You have collected the following data for the current year (2003-2004):

Undergraduate Graduate

Division Division

Average salary of faculty member $46,000 $46,000

Average faculty teaching load in semester

credit hours per year (eight undergraduate

or six graduate courses) 24 18

Average number of students per class 30 20

Total enrollment (full-time and part-time

students) 3,600 1,800

Average number of semester credit hours

carried each year per student 25 20

Full-time load, semester hours per year 30 24

For 2004-2005, all faculty and staff will receive a 6% salary increase. Undergraduate enrollment is expected to decline by 2%, but graduate enrollment is expected to increase by 5%.

The 2004-2005 budget for operation and maintenance of facilities is $500,000, which includes $240,000 for salaries and wages. Experience so far this year indicates that the budget is accurate. Salaries and wages will increase by 6% and other operating costs will increase by $12,000 in 2004 –2005.

The 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 budgets for the remaining expenditures are:

2003-2004 2004-2005

General administrative $500,000 $525,000
