The financial statements of the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) were
authorized for issue on February 12, 2018 as shown in the Statement of
Management’s Responsibility for Financial Statements signed by the Director of
Accounting Department and the Vice-President for Finance.
Governance of the PUP is vested upon the BOR, which exercises policy-making
functions to carry out the mission and programs of the University by virtue of RA
No. 8292 granted by the CHED. It is administered by an appointed President and is
assisted by an Executive Vice-President and six Vice-Presidents; one each for
Academic Affairs, Student Affairs and Services, Administration, Research,
Extension, Planning and Development, Finance, and Branches and Campuses.
The institution started as the Manila Business School, founded in October 1904 as
part of the city school system under the superintendence of C.A. O’Reilley, which
responds to the demand for training personnel for government service and felt need
to provide skills essential for private employment. In 1908, it was renamed as
Philippine School of Commerce (PSC) and merged with the Philippine Normal
School in 1933 to 1946. By virtue of RA No. 778, the PSC was again changed to
Philippine College of Commerce (PCC) in 1952. Subsequently, the PCC was
converted into a chartered state university, now known as the Polytechnic University
of the Philippines by virtue of Presidential Decree (PD) No. 1341 issued by the
President of the Philippines on April 1, 1978.

extension activities. During the years under review, the PUP received and allotted
government and private funding to research.
With more than twenty campuses serving more than 70,000 students, the PUP is
considered the largest university in the Philippines in terms of student population.
The main campus is named after a national hero, Apolinario Mabini, and is located in
Sta. Mesa, Manila – in the middle of a busy metropolitan. Despite of this,
environment within its perimeter is a conducive place for students to learn.
Scholars of the Nation (Iskolar ng Bayan), that is what the students are called
because the Philippine Government and other non-government institutions subsidize
their tuition and other fees.

more than 20 campuses to cater a wide range of courses, from bachelors to doctorate
degrees as well as technology. There are also available flexible or distance learning

11
Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program and the Non-
traditional System Program; maintains an average size of 45-50 students per class;
and provides a long list of extension services for the community and the country.
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, unless
otherwise stated. The Statement of Cash Flows is prepared using the direct method.
Included in the financial statements are transactions of all PUP Campuses. The
University, however, adopts the Centralized Accounting System whereby only one
complete set of books is kept and maintained by the Accounting Department in the
Main Campus at Sta. Mesa, Manila.
a. Financial Assets
Initial Recognition and Measurement
The PUP’s financial assets includes: cash and short-term deposits; trade and
other receivables; and loans and other receivables.
12
Financial Assets Carried at Amortized Cost
The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance
account and the amount of the loss is recognized in surplus or deficit.
b. Financial Liabilities
3.4 Inventories
Inventory is measured at cost upon initial recognition. To the extent that
inventory was received through non-exchange transactions (for no cost or for a
nominal cost), the cost of the inventory is its fair value at the date of acquisition.
Recognition
tangible items;
held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for rental to
others, or for administrative purposes; and
expected to be used during more than one reporting period.
13
Measurement at Recognition
The cost of the PPE is the cash price equivalent or, for PPE acquired through
non-exchange transaction, its cost is its fair value as at recognition date.
Cost includes purchase price, any cost directly attributable to the dismantling
and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.
After recognition, all PPE are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
impairment losses.
When significant parts of PPE are required to be replaced at intervals, the PUP
recognizes such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and
depreciates them accordingly. Likewise, when a major repair/replacement is
done, its cost is recognized in the carrying amount of the plant and equipment as
a replacement if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and
maintenance costs are recognized as expense in surplus or deficit as incurred.
Depreciation
Each part of an item of PPE with a cost that is significant in relation to the total
cost of the item is depreciated separately.
Depreciation Method
The straight line method of depreciation shall be adopted unless another method
is more appropriate for agency operation.
14
Estimated Useful Life
The PUP uses the Schedule on the Estimated Useful Life of PPE by
classification prepared by COA.
It uses a residual value equivalent to at least five percent (5%) of the cost of the
PPE.
Impairment
Intangible assets are recognized when the items are identifiable non-monetary
assets without physical substance; it is probable that the expected future
economic benefits or service potential that are attributable to the assets will flow
to the entity; and the cost or fair value of the assets can be measured reliably.
The PUP corrects material prior period errors retrospectively in the first set of
financial statements authorized for issue after their discovery by:
15
Measurement of Revenue from Non Exchange Transactions
The PUP recognizes assets and revenue from gifts and donations when it is
probable that the future economic benefits or service potential will flow to the
entity and the fair value of the assets can be measured reliably.
Goods in-kind are recognized as assets when the goods are received, or there is a
binding arrangement to receive the goods. If goods in-kind are received without
conditions attached, revenue is recognized immediately. If conditions are
attached, a liability is recognized, which is reduced and revenue recognized as
the conditions are satisfied.
On initial recognition, gifts and donations including goods in-kind are measured
at their fair value as at the date of acquisition, which were ascertained by
reference to an active market, or by appraisal. An appraisal of the value of an
asset is normally undertaken by a member of the valuation profession who holds
a recognized and relevant professional qualification. For many assets, the fair
value is ascertained by reference to quoted prices in an active and liquid market.
Measurement of Revenue
Rental Income
