Principle of Independent Fiscal Year

Japanese: 会計年度独立の原則 - かいけいねんどどくりつのげんそく
Principle of Independent Fiscal Year

...In principle, the expenses for each fiscal year must be covered by the revenues of that fiscal year and must be concluded and organized in a way that does not affect other fiscal years. This is called the principle of fiscal year independence, but there are some exceptions, such as carryover of expenditure budgets and expenditures from previous years.
[Fiscal year affiliation category]
Since the fiscal year is set and the principle of fiscal year independence exists, it is necessary to establish certain principles as to which fiscal year the national revenues and expenditures should belong.

From [Accounting Law]

...Article 14 of the Financial Law), the principle of a single budget (the principle of treating the budget for a fiscal year as a single entity and accounting for revenues and expenditures under a single account; Article 13), and the principle of an independent fiscal year (the principle of setting up a fiscal year and covering the expenses of a fiscal year with the revenues of that year; Articles 11 and 12) are stipulated in the Financial Law.

From [Carryover Approval Expenses]

...This is called carryover authorized expenses. The principle is that the expenditure budget for each fiscal year should be used within that fiscal year (principle of fiscal year independence), but if this principle is followed as is, it may not be in line with the actual situation, and the use of the budget may be uneconomical and inefficient. Therefore, only in such cases is it permitted to carry over the expenditure budget as an exception and use it in the following fiscal year's budget, and carryover authorized expenses are one example of this.
