    Default FBS and money

    Can anyone find a balance sheet for an athletic department like Boise State, UNLV or a Western Kentucky type program. Would be interested in seeing all the costs and revenues.

    At least we can cross the "paint the field blue" expenditure off of our potential expenditures list

    What you want is an income statement rather than a balance sheet. Boise State's athletic budget is around $33 million. About 3/4 of that is generated by the athletic department. The rest of it comes from student fees, state and institutional support.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow.

    Well, a balance sheet will normally include debits and credits, but I am by no means an accountant.

    Ok. I'm no accountant but I'd like to see what they have and compare it to NDSU if that info is available. I couldn't find much doing a google search.

    Accounting crib sheet:

    debit = left
    credit = right

    That's it. They're literally the names of the columns.

    Balance sheet: shows the financial position at a given point in time, what you own and what you owe. Assets = Liabilities + Equity
    Income statement: shows financial results over a period of time. Revenues - Expenses = Income

    There you go. Charge the NDSU students an extra $1k each per year and we go FBS.
