B - 13 City of Pleasanton Operating Budget • FY 2023/24 - FY 2024/25 <br />APPENDIX B <br />Organization Chart <br />A chart showing the interrelationships of positions within an organization in terms of authority and <br />responsibilities. There are basically three patterns of organization: line organization, functional organization <br />and line and staff organization. <br />Overage <br />Too much, opposite of shortage. <br />Overhead <br />Indirect expenses of running an organization not directly associated with a particular item of service. <br />For example, wages paid to an employee providing a service and the costs of the required materials <br />for performing the service are direct costs. Electricity and building insurance are overhead expenses. By <br />applying a factor called the burden rate, cost accounting attempts to allocate overhead, where possible, to <br />the cost of the services provided. <br />Overtime <br />Time worked in excess of an agreed upon time for normal working hours by an employee. Hourly or non- <br />exempt employees must be compensated at the rate of one and one-half their normal hourly rate for <br />overtime work beyond 40 hours in a workweek. Working on holidays or weekends is sometimes referred to as <br />overtime work. <br />Payroll <br />Aggregate periodic amount an organization pays its workers, lists of employees and their compensation. <br />Per Capita <br />By or for each individual. Anything figured per capita is calculated by the number of individuals involved <br />and is divided equally among all. <br />Performance Measures <br />Specific quantitative measures of work performed within a program (e.g. miles of streets cleaned). Also, <br />specific quantitative measures of results obtained through a program (e.g., percent change in response <br />time compared to previous year). <br />Prepaid <br />Expense paid in advance, such as a one-year insurance policy paid when purchased or rent paid in <br />advance of the period covered. <br />Prior Year <br />The fiscal year preceding the current year. <br />Program <br />An organized self-contained set of related work activities within a department or division which are directed <br />toward common objectives and represent a well-defined expenditure of City resources. <br />Projection <br />Estimate of future performance made by economists, corporate planners and credit and securities <br />analysts, typically using historic trends and other assumed input. <br />Pro Rata <br />Proportionate allocation. For example, a pro rata property tax rebate might be divided proportionately <br />(prorate) among taxpayers based on their original assessments, so that each gets the same percentage.
