Revenue Expenditure
This is the money spent on day-to-day items such as payroll, insurances, loan repayments and purchase of necessary materials for maintenance and repair of our assets. The sources of revenue income are:
- Commercial Rates
- Grants from central Government
- Receipts from the provision of services
Capital Expenditure
This is money spent on the creation of an asset. Examples of these are the building of Council houses and road construction. These projects are funded by way of Department grant or by loan over the construction period but when the project is completed the operational costs are funded from Revenue Expenditure.
