There are several channels for units to obtain non-financial appropriation income at the corresponding level:
Financial funds transferred by government departments at the same level other than the financial departments at the same level. These departments may include other government departments or competent units. For example, a municipal education bureau may get a financial allocation from the municipal science and technology bureau to support schools to carry out scientific and technological innovation activities.
Various financial funds provided by the superior government or the lower government. This may include various subsidies, special funds or project funds from the central or local governments. For example, a provincial university may receive financial allocation from the Ministry of Education to support its teaching and research activities.
Obtain financial allocations from non-financial departments at the same level. This kind of situation is relatively rare, and it is usually the exchange of funds between cross-level government departments. For example, a county education bureau may get a financial allocation from the provincial education department to support the school to carry out the pilot work of educational reform.
Funds obtained from enterprises. Although these funds come from enterprises, they may be financial. For example, the government may provide subsidies or tax incentives to enterprises, and then require enterprises to transfer some funds to public institutions.
In addition, the unit can also obtain non-financial appropriation income through the following channels:
Income from donations received. For example, a university can accept donations from all walks of life or individuals to support its teaching, scientific research or social service activities.
Interest income. For example, the interest income earned by a company in a bank savings account or an investment account.
Net income from disposal of assets. For example, the net income obtained when a unit sells or transfers assets such as fixed assets and intangible assets.
