International Public Sector Accounting Standards
•
International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) are a
set of accounting standards issued by the IPSAS Board for use by
public sector entities around the world in the preparation of
financial statements. These standards are based on International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
•
IPSAS are accounting standards for application by national
governments, regional (e.g., state, provincial, territorial)
governments, local (e.g., city, town) governments and related
governmental entities (e.g., agencies, boards and commissions).
IPSAS standards are widely used by intergovernmental
organizations. IPSAS do not apply to government business
enterprises.

Supreme Court Decisions
Supreme Court Decision on the case of University of
the Philippines (UP) et al vs. Hon. Dizon, Stern Builders,
Inc, and De la Cruz, GR No. 171182
Issues:
a. Whether the funds of the UP are subject to
garnishment in order to satisfy the judgment award
b. Whether or not COA must adjudicate private
respondent's claim before execution should proceed
Supreme Court Decision on the case of University of
the Philippines (UP) et al vs. Hon. Dizon, Stern Builders,
Inc, and De la Cruz, GR No. 171182
SC ruled that:
a. Funds of UP are government funds that are public in
character as they include the income accruing from the
use of real property ceded to the UP that may be spent
only for the attainment of institutional objectives.
b. COA must adjudicate private respondent’s claim
before execution should follow. The settlement of the
monetary claim was still subject to the primary
jurisdiction of COA despite the final decision of the RTC
having already validated the claim.
Supreme Court Decision
Ramon Yap vs. COA - G.R. No. 158562 dated April 23, 2010
Allowances and Benefits
•
Disbursement of Public Funds, which includes
payment of salaries and benefits to government
officials and employees must be:
a. Authorized by law
b. Serve a public Purpose
Supreme Court Decision
Ramon Yap vs. COA - G.R. No. 158562 dated April 23, 2010
Allowances and Benefits
•
In view of this public purpose requirement, the disbursement
of public funds, salaries and benefits of government officers
and employees should be granted to compensate them for
public services rendered and the salaries or benefits paid to
such officers and employees must be commensurate with
services rendered.
• In the same vein, additional allowances and benefits must be
shown to be necessary or relevant to the fulfilment of official
duties and functions of government employees
Supreme Court Decision
Ramon Yap vs. COA - G.R. No. 158562 dated April 23, 2010
Allowances and Benefits
Meaning of Public Purpose or Public Use in relation to
disbursement of public funds
•
Traditionally it means any purpose or use directly
available to the public as a matter of right
•
Does not pertains only to those purposes that which are
traditionally viewed as essentially government functions
such as building of roads and delivery of basic services but
also includes those purposes designed to promote social
justice
•
Public use is now equated with public interest
Supreme Court Decision
Ramon Yap vs. COA - G.R. No. 158562 dated April 23, 2010
Allowances and Benefits
•
COA abandoned the ground of double compensation as a
basis for questioned disallowance and affirmed the same on
a new ground, that the disallowances did not meet the test
of public purpose requirement.
•
It was rules that COA in resolving cases brought before it on
appeal, is not required to limit its review only to the grounds
relied upon by a government agency’s auditor.
Supreme Court Decision
Ramon Yap vs. COA - G.R. No. 158562 dated April 23, 2010
Allowances and Benefits
•
COA is not merely legally permitted, but is also duty bound
to make its own assessment of the merits of the disallowed
disbursement and not simply restrict itself to reviewing the
validity of the ground relied upon by the Auditor of the
government agency concerned. To hold otherwise would
render COA’s vital constitutional power unduly limited and
thereby useless and ineffective.
