Finance and Administration

This account code should be used to capitalize the expenditures for the installation or construction of Improvements Other Than Buildings (IOTBs). Charges from the Physical Plant and other service activities for construction of improvements other than buildings are also included. IOTBs include the following: Fountains, Bleachers, Dugouts, Goal posts, Scoreboards, Similar improvements not part of the land or building itself. Improvements that increase the value by less than $5,000 are coded as maintenance (see account codes 235xx - Maintenance and Repairs). (See accounts 404xx for procurements.) Note: Distinguishing between infrastructure, improvements other than buildings, and land improvements (depreciable and non-depreciable) is not always clear. See Fiscal Policy Manual section 55.795 for examples of major categories of "real property other than buildings" and their associated account code and asset type.
