The Impacts Of Capital Expenditure And Fixed Assets On Maintenance Expenditures
(A Study Of Aceh Government Agencies)
Dewi Safitri Islahuddin
Abstract
This paper measures the impacts of capital expenditure and fixed assets on the maintenance
expenditures in budget allocation and realization at Aceh government agencies. The research
method used in this research is causal research method. The independent variables of the
research are capital expenditure and fixed assets while the dependent variables are the
budgeted maintenance expenditure and the actual maintenance expenditure. This paper uses
merely secondary data collected from financial statements of 33 Aceh government agencies. The
data includes actual budget reports and balance sheet for the period of 2008 – 2012 obtained
from Aceh Department of Finance. The results are the capital expenditure and the fixed assets
simultaneously and partially have significant impacts on both budgeted and actual maintenance
expenditures. However, partially, capital expenditure had a lower effect on the dependent
variables than the fixed assets. Capital expenditure has negative effect on budgeted and actual
maintenance expenditures, while the fixed assets have positive effect on budgeted and actual
maintenance expenditures.
Keywords: capital expenditure, fixed assets, government agencies, maintenance expenditures
1. INTRODUCTION The allocation of maintenance expenditures for fixed assets obtained from capital
expenditure is closely related to a long term financial planning, in the context of regional financial management. It is contextually because the fixed assets are assets that can be utilized for more than one year. Financing the asset maintenance expenditure is very essential to ensure that the assets can always be used in accordance with their functions and estimated life.
Budget for mantenance in accounting perspective calculated based on the length of time
and the using period of fixed asset as in the calculation of the depreciation for the fixed asset (Abdullah and Halim, 2006). However, in reality the maintenance expenditure is often neglected. According to research in many developed countries such as Africa and Latin America (IMF, 2007; World Bank, 2008), the phenomena so called ghost expenditures, that could not be accounted is a usual matter. Allocation for maintenance expenditures is always budgeted incrementally although some assets have been left unused or lost.
Prior to this research, little research on maintenance expenditures in Aceh has been
done although the financial condition in Aceh after the implementation of special autonomy, earthquake and tsunami disasters recovery program have created a significant increase in the capital expenditure and fixed assets. Basically, the fixed assets are not only obtained from the budged realization capital expenditure but may also from the third parties (grant).

Meanwhile, the government of Aceh province until 2012 was still granted the category of ―reasonable with exceptions‖ or qualified opinion for its financial statement. One of the exceptions was the balance off the fixed assets for the period of December 31, 2012, i.e. 13.786 trillion rupiah, which was considered unreasonable. It was due to the lack internal control for the fixed asset, inventory, and the improvement for the fixed asset management system.
This research investigated the impact of capital expenditure and fixed assets on maintenance budget at Aceh government agencies in Aceh province government. The data used for this research were the data from financial statements prepared by Aceh government agencies for the five-year periods, from 2008 until 2012. It is expected that this research can be used as a recommendation in establishing the policies of maintenance budget for Aceh Province government.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW Budget and Regional Budgeting
Budget is a statement of working estimation in the form of monetary measure. In public sector organization, budget is an accountability instrument for public financial management and the implementation of programs financed by public funds (Mahsun et al., 2011:65).
According to Law Number 32 of 2004, Articles 184, budgeting process is a consecutives
activities which includes planning, compiling, implementing, reporting, and evaluation. This process is known as budget cycle. This cycle is not implemented in sequence but simultaneously. When the budget is still used and the report has not been completed, the planning and compiling should have been arranged.
Local Government Accountability Report
Thhe guideline on local government financial management (Regulation of Minister of Internal Affairs Number 13 of 2006) mentions that local government agencies are government agencies which use the public budget. The agencies propose their budget in Work Plan and Budget of Local Government Agency. It is used later in designing local government regulation regarding local government budget and regulation of government head regarding outline of local government budget.
According to Law Number 32 of 2004, Article 184, reporting is draft of local government
regulation, prepared by Head of the Government regarding accountability for local government budget implementation to Local Government Representative Assembly. This draft is a financial statement which has been audited by Audit Board. The report should include actual spending report of local government budget, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and notes for the financial statement, with the attachment of Local Government Own Enterprise financial report.
Maintenance Expenditure
Maintenance is an activity or action that utilizes the properties of local government to keep them in usable. These properties are all the goods purchased or obtained by using local government budget or other approved funding (Regulation of Minister of Internal Affairs Number 17 of 2007 on Technical Guide of Local Property Management, Article 1).
According to Law Number 17 of 2003, maintenance expenditure is a expenditure to
maintain the condition of existing fixed assets or other assets regardless of the amount of fund, such as the maintenance of lands, buildings, government institution houses, official vehicles, and other facilities related to the government operation. Maintenance expenditure is a regular spending that involved in all working units or local government which has an

595
asset. Therefore, the amount of annual budgeted maintenance expenditure depends on the number of assets owned by every corresponding working unit or local government.
The national capital expenditure should consider the amount of fund required for operation and maintenance of public works related to government fund based on the programs, project types, and regions. The reserve of capital expenditure creates a demand for funding the operational and maintenance activities. Even in some states such as Cincinnati, Ohio, and Waco, and Texas, they do not consider forming a new capital expenditure before obtaining guarantee for operational and maintenance funding to avoid the suspension. Therefore, there should be no more any expression of ―build then forget‖ in government administrative style (Choate, 1981:25)
Capital Expenditure
Halim (2002:72) defines capital expenditure as the spending of budget for a period of more than one year and it adds asset or property to local government, leading to the addition in routine expenditure such as for maintenance. The capital budget is divided into two types, namely public budget and budget for civil servants.
In accordance with Government Regulation Number 24 of 2005 on the Standard of
Government Accounting, the statement number 2 on government report on budget outcomes defines capital expenditures as budget spending to obtain fixed assets and other assets which give benefit for one accounting period. Capital expenditure includes the spending to obtain land, building, tools and other intangible assets. Fixed Assets
Government Regulation Number 24 of 2005 states that an asset is a resource owned by the government as a result of past activities and where the government obtain economic or social benefits for the future, either by the government or society, and it can be measured with money, including non-financial resource to provide services for public and conserved resources for historic and cultural reasons. Fixed assets are tangible assets which give benefit for the period of more than 12 months used for government activities or by members of public.
Hypothesis Hypothesis of this research were: Hypothesis 1 = capital expenditure and fixed assets simultaneously influenced the budgeted
maintenance expenditure. Hypothesis 2 = capital expenditure influenced the budgeted maintenance expenditure. Hypothesis 3 = fixed assets influenced budgeted maintenance expenditure. Hypothesis 4 = capital expenditure and fixed assets simultaneously influenced the
realization maintenance expenditure. Hypothesis 5 = capital expenditure influenced the realization maintenance expenditure. Hypothesis 6 = fixed assets influenced the realization maintenance expenditure. 3. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The research method used in this research is a causal research method. The objective of this research is to analyze the influence of independent variables on dependent variables through a hypothesis test.
The population in this research is all Aceh Government Agencies between and the
study period is between 2008 and 2012. The objects investigated in this research are the Government Realization Report and the Balance Sheets from Aceh Government Agencies. The sample was selected by using a purposive sampling technique for which the SKPA used were the regular SKPA in the observed periods. Based on these criteria, 33 Aceh government agencies have been selected as the research sample.

The data collected for this research are quantitative data, i.e. secondary data obtained from financial statements prepared by the Aceh Government Agencies. The collected documents are Government Realization Report and the Balance Sheets prepared by Aceh Government Agencies. The documents were collected from Department of Finance of Aceh. The collected data are presented in the following: 1. Capital expenditure in year t-1 (one year before the concerned year) and fixed assets in
year t-1 for the period of 4 years, 2008 – 2011. 2. Budgeted maintenance expenditure and actual maintenance expenditure from 2009 until
2012. Operationalization of Variables Independent variables 1. Capital expenditure is an expense to purchase/procure or construct tangible fixed
assets which give benefits for more than 12 months to be used for government activities. The data for capital expenditure were collected from Government Realization Report prepared by Aceh Government Agencies for prior year (t – 1), presented in Indonesian rupiah.
2. Fixed assets are tangible assets which give benefits for the period of more than 12 months to be used for government activities. The data for capital expenditure were collected from Balance Sheet prepared by Aceh Government Agencies for year t – 1 in rupiah.
Dependent variables 1. Budgeted maintenance expenditure in this research is defined as a budget allocated
by Aceh Government Agencies to maintain assets owned by the agencies in the proper condition. The amount of budgeted maintenance expenditure was taken from budgeted maintenance expenditure in a certain year in the Government Realization Report prepared by Aceh Government Agencies in rupiah.
2. Realization of maintenance expenditure in this research is defined as the realization expenditure by Aceh Government Agencies to maintain assets owned by the agencies in proper condition. The amount of realization maintenance expenditure was taken from the actual maintenance expenditure in a certain year from Government Realization Report prepared by Aceh Government Agencies in rupiah.
Technique of Data Analysis
A classical assumption test was conducted before the data were analyzed to test the hypotheses. The hypotheses were tested by using t-test and F-test formulas. The relationship between two variables was determined by using multiple regression equation, as presented in the following:

DISCUSSION
The Impacts of Capital Expenditure and Fixed Assets on Budgeted Maintenance
Expenditure
Based on the table 1, the impacts of capital expenditure and fixed assets on budgeted maintenance expenditure can be seen from the value of F, i.e. 46.367 with the significance level of 0.000, which is lower than regression significance, i.e. 0.05. Based on this result, it can be concluded that the first hypothesis was empirically accepted, which means that capital expenditure and fixed assets simultaneously influenced the budgeted maintenance expenditure.
Proceedings of International Conference on Accounting Research & Education 2014 ISBN 978-967-5741-23-4
600
The Impacts of Capital Expenditure on Budgeted Maintenance Expenditure Based on the table 2, the level of significance for capital expenditure is 0.002, which
was lower than the regression significance, i.e. 0.05. It is indicated that the capital budget of t – 1 significantly effect on the budgeted maintenance expenditure. The regression coefficient for capital budget is negative, i.e. -0.212, which means that the higher the capital expenditure, the lower the budgeted maintenance expenditure. Therefore, if the coefficient was constant, for every one Rupiah of increase in capital expenditure, there is Rp 0,212 decrease in budgeted maintenance expenditure. In conclusion, the second hypothesis is empirically accepted; therefore, capital expenditure significantly influenced the budgeted maintenance expenditure.
From the discussion above, the results of this research were different from the
research conducted by Kamensky (1984:14) who discovered that 57 percent of the cities in the United States are not influenced by the maintenance or repair cost of a project. Therefore that managers in public sectors had to learn more comprehensively about the total cost from capital expenditure beside restrict the expenditure merely on construction and procurement.
The Impacts of Fixed Assets on Fixed Maintenance Expenditure
Based on the table 2, the analysis results show that the significance level for fixed assets is 0.000, which is lower than regression significance, i.e. 0.05, reveals that the fixed assets gave an impact on budgeted maintenance expenditure. The regression coefficient for fixed assets is positive, i.e. 0.698, which means that the more expensive the fixed assets, the higher the budgeted maintenance expenditure. This suggested that if the coefficient remained constant, every Rp1 increased in fixed asset price boosted the budgeted maintenance expenditure by 0,698 Rupiah. Therefore, it can be concluded that the third hypothesis which stated that fixed assets influenced budgeted maintenance expenditure was empirically accepted.
This result is supported by the results of a research conducted by Sinaga and
Sidaburat (2012) which concluded that the variable of asset price gave direct and positive impacts on maintenance expenditure. This suggested that the budgeted maintenance expenditure had been adjusted to the fixed asset value. The Simultaneous Impacts of Capital Expenditure and Fixed Assets on Actual Maintenance Expenditure
Based on the table 3, the value of F is 35,967 with the significant of 0.0000, which is lower than the significant regression, namely 0.05. It again reveals that the forth hypothesis supported empirically that the capital expenditure and fixed asset simultaneously give the impact on realization maintenance expenditure
The Impacts of Capital Expenditureon Realization Maintenance Expenditure
Based on the table 4, te significance level for capital expenditure, i.e 0.009, is lower than regression significance, i.e. 0.05. It suggests that the capital expenditure gave an impact on realization maintenance expenditure. In addition, regression coefficient for capital expenditure is negative, i.e. -0.214 indicated that the higher the capital expenditure, the lower the realization maintenance expenditure. These results reveal that for every one rupiah increase in capital expenditure, there is 0.214 Rupiah increase in realization maintenance expenditure, if the coefficient remained constant. Therefore, it can be concluded that the fifth hypothesis which stated that capital expenditure influenced realization maintenance expenditure is empirically accepted.
Proceedings of International Conference on Accounting Research & Education 2014 ISBN 978-967-5741-23-4
601
The Impacts of Fixed Assets on Realization Maintenance Expenditure Based on the table 4, the significance level of fixed assets of 0.000, which was lower
than regression significance, i.e. 0.05, shows that fixed assets significantly influenced the realization maintenance expenditure. The regression coefficient for fixed assets was positive, i.e. 0.690, meaning that the higher the fixed asset value, the higher the realization maintenance expenditure. This result suggested that if the coefficient remained constant, the increase in fixed asset value as much as 1 (one) rupiah increase, the realization maintenance expenditure will increase as much as 0.69 Rupiah. Therefore, it can be concluded that the sixth hypothesis i.e assets influenced realization maintenance expenditure was empirically accepted.
Comparison of Both Regression Test Results
The comparison of both regression test results (coefficient of β1 and β2 ) show that the comparison of coefficients for independent variables, i.e. X1it-1 (capital expenditure) and X2it-1(fixed assets) for maintenance expenditure and realization maintenance expenditure, presented as follows.
β1YAit (0.212) <β1YRit (0.214) β2YAit (0.698) >β2YRit(0.690) β1 <β2 The coefficient for capital expenditure (β1) which influenced the budgeted
maintenance expenditure (YAit) is lower than the coefficient for capital expenditure (β1) which also influenced the realization maintenance expenditure (YRit). These results show that the capital expenditure could predict realization maintenance expenditure better than it did to budgeted maintenance expenditure. The coefficient for fixed assets (β2) which is the influenced budgeted maintenance expenditure (YAit) is higher than the coefficient for fixed assets (β2), namely the influenced realization maintenance expenditure (YRit). These results show that fixed assets could predict budgeted maintenance expenditure better than capital expenditure. The coefficient for capital expenditure (β1) is lower than the coefficient for fixed assets (β2). This suggested that the fixed assets could predict the impacts of capital and maintenance expenditure than capital expenditure. Maintenance expenditure is only budgeted to ensure that fixed assets worked well as the functions. Therefore, the policy on allocation maintenance budget based on the fixed asset value is supported by this research.
The obstacles often occurred are that the local government did not have sufficient
information regarding the total of their fixed assets. It was proved from audit reports issued by National Audit Board (BPK) for Financial Statements prepared by Aceh Government for the year of 2011. The National Audit Board responded ―Reasonable with Exception‖ for that financial statement. The exceptions included balance for the assets, which was considered so unreasonable that the Aceh government was not able to obtain ―Reasonable without Exception‖ from National Audit Board (BPK) for its financial statements.
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS Conclusions 1) Budgeted and realization maintenance expenditure is affected negatively by the
capital expenditure. It means that an increase in capital budget is followed by a decrease in maintenance expenditure. It also suggests that funding for asset maintenance was not predicted when capital expenditure was budgeted.
2) Budgeted and actual maintenance expenditure is positively impact by the fixed asset. It suggests that an increase in fixed asset value was followed by an increase in maintenance expenditure.
3) Capital expenditure and fixed assets simultaneously and partially gave impacts on budgeted and realization maintenance expenditure. However, the capital expenditure

gave lower impact partially, instead of simultaneously. 4) The impacts of capital expenditure on budgeted maintenance expenditure were
smaller than on realization maintenance expenditure. 5) Fixed assets gave more impacts on budgeted maintenance expenditure than on
realization maintenance expenditure. Suggestions 1) Considering the capital expenditure transferred to the third party is separated from
capital expenditure of Government Agencies as a result of the implementation of Permendagri No.37/2010, the following research shall use the data for capital expenditure of Government Agencies since 2011 and add the local government income to analyze Aceh government's capability in funding operational and maintenance costs.
2) To simplify the responsibility, capital expenditure from special autonomy fund is recommended to be transferred to third parties (district/city/society) not in the corresponding year, and allocated separately from capital expenditure for Aceh government agencies.
3) It has to be noted that physical development by Aceh government agencies by utilizing special autonomy fund, which has been planned to be handed to district or municipality government is less effective if it is budgeted in capital expenditure of Aceh government agencies. Therefore, further research need to include the grant and other financial assistance in Aceh government policies.
4) To find out whether there is an increase in maintenance expenditure, further research should separate fixed assets purchased or procured by Aceh government agency‘s fund and those from capital expenditure and special autonomy fund.
