Other expenses incurred in the process of project research other than the above expenses shall be listed separately and approved separately when preparing the budget. Direct expenses are included in the unified financial management of the responsible unit, accounted for separately, and earmarked for special purposes.
State appropriation is the construction funds directly allocated by the state finance to the main body of project construction in major fixed assets investment projects. Some of these funds are allocated in the national budget and some are temporarily allocated, but they are undoubtedly an important part of the national finance. Because fixed assets investment projects are very important, in order to ensure the financial support of major projects, the management method of earmarking is adopted.
The above are the regulations on the use of state funds. I hope it helps you.
