    Explanation
    Budgeting involves the allocation and distribution of limited resources among various project groups or functions in a project environment. It is the process of creating a financial plan that outlines the estimated income and expenses for a specific period.

    • E.

      Local Institutions

    • F.

      Bond Flotation

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "special levy fund" because it is not a source of funding for plan implementation. Special levy funds typically refer to taxes or fees imposed on specific groups of individuals or properties for a particular purpose, such as funding infrastructure projects or public services. However, in the context of plan implementation, special levy funds are not commonly used as a source of financing. Instead, the other options listed (Official Development Assistance, Bilateral Agreement Funds, Specialized Funds and Financing Programs, Local Institutions, and Bond Flotation) are more commonly utilized sources of funding for plan implementation.

    Bond flotation refers to the process of issuing bonds to raise funds for specific activities. It is a method commonly used by governments and organizations to finance major development projects. By issuing bonds, the government or organization can generate additional investment requirements and attract investors who are willing to lend money in exchange for regular interest payments. This allows the government or organization to fund projects that may be beyond their current budgetary capacity. Bond flotation is a form of debt financing that provides a long-term source of funding for various activities, including those undertaken by other regions or provinces.

    Correct Answer

The General Appropriations Act is a law that authorizes the government to spend public funds for a specific fiscal year. It outlines the budget allocations for different government agencies and programs. RA 10155 specifically refers to the General Appropriations Act for a particular year, indicating that it is the correct answer in this context.

    2 main characteristic that will qualify if project is ODA

    • A.

      Concessional and geared to economic & social welfare development

    • B.

      Official & not belong to PEZA

    • C.

      Private sector funded

    • D.

      None of the choices

    Correct Answer
    A. Concessional and geared to economic & social welfare development
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Concessional and geared to economic & social welfare development." This means that for a project to be considered ODA (Official Development Assistance), it must have concessional terms, meaning it provides financial assistance on more favorable conditions than commercial loans. Additionally, the project must be focused on promoting economic and social welfare development. The other options mentioned in the question, such as being official and not belonging to PEZA (Philippine Economic Zone Authority) or being funded by the private sector, are not the main characteristics that determine if a project is ODA.

    Explanation
    LGUs are authorized to enter into lease contract agreements with suppliers with an option to purchase later on. This means that the LGUs can acquire property, plant, machinery, equipment, etc. through a deferred payment scheme. In this scheme, the LGU can make payments for the acquisition over a period of time instead of making an on-the-spot payment or no payment at all. This allows the LGU to manage its finances more effectively and acquire the necessary assets while spreading out the cost over a longer period.

    • D.

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct answer is BSP and SEC. LGU bond flotation refers to the process of issuing bonds by Local Government Units. In this process, the rules and regulations of the BSP (Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas) and SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) are applicable. These regulatory bodies ensure that the issuance of bonds by LGUs complies with the necessary guidelines and safeguards the interests of investors. NEDA (National Economic and Development Authority) and DBM (Department of Budget and Management) are not directly involved in the regulation of bond flotation by LGUs.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "bear guarantee of national government."

However, if the bond issue does not have a guarantee from the national government, then the approval of the Finance Secretary is not required.

The other options listed are all functions that are performed by NEDA, such as development planning, investment programming, project monitoring, and PPP project coordination. However, coordination of HUC's projects is not a function of NEDA, so it is the correct answer.

    Explanation
    The full definition of ODA is:

    Flows of official financing administered with the promotion of the economic development and welfare of developing countries as the main objective, and which are concessional in character with a grant element of at least 25 percent (using a fixed 10 percent rate of discount). By convention, ODA flows comprise contributions of donor government agencies, at all levels, to developing countries (“bilateral ODA”) and to multilateral institutions. ODA receipts comprise disbursements by bilateral donors and multilateral institutions.
    — OECD, Glossary of Statistical Terms [2]

    In other words, ODA needs to contain the three elements:
    (a) undertaken by the official sector (official agencies, including state and local governments, or their executive agencies)[1]
    (b) with promotion of economic development and welfare as the main objective; and
    (c) at concessional financial terms (if a loan, having a grant element of at least 25 per cent).
