Answer: Encumbrance

Explanation:  The commitment made by a governmental unit to buy some product for use in administration is recorded in the general fund as an encumbrance which is defined as an interest, right, burden or liability that must be carried. As such, an encumbrance ensures that there will be enough funds available for the payment of certain governmental obligations and commonly refers to restricted funds in the general fund account.

Answer:

Encumbrance

Explanation:

An encumbrance is a portion of a budget set aside for spending required by law or contract. Like the budget itself, an encumbrance is a projection and not yet a reality. If business conditions continue as they are when you set the budget, then the encumbrance will become an expense.

The most common types of encumbrance apply to real estate; these include mortgages, easements, and property tax liens. Not all forms of encumbrance are financial, easements being an example of non-financial encumbrances. An encumbrance can also apply to personal – as opposed to real – property.
