The Budget Control Report lists general ledger accounts that have spent more than a certain percentage of their budget. The GL account and description are printed along with the original budget, annual budget, period to date budget, expenditures, commitments and the percentage of the budget spent. The expenditures and commitments are compared against the period to date budget to obtain the percentage of the budget spent.
