Study Notes

Accounting for Not-for-Profit Organizations

  • Not-for-profit organizations (NPOs) are voluntary organizations that promote social and charitable purposes, not profit. Examples include hospitals, schools, and religious organizations.
  • NPOs differ from profit-making organizations in their ultimate goal. NPOs aim to serve community interests, while profit-making organizations aim to earn profit.
  • NPOs receive funding from donations, subscriptions, and other sources. Profit-making organizations often receive funding from owners or partners.
  • NPO financial statements include receipts and payment accounts, income and expenditure accounts, and balance sheets. Profit-making organizations include trading account, profit and loss account, and balance sheet.
  • The net result of NPO activities is either surplus or deficit. Profit/loss is the net result for profit-making organizations.
  • A receipts and payment account is prepared based on the cash book, recording all cash transactions, whether revenue or capital in nature, and specific to a particular accounting period.
  • An income and expenditure account is similar to a profit & loss account, but it only records revenue transactions related to the current year. It's a nominal account, unlike a receipts and payment account, which is a real account.

Key Differences Between Accounts

  • Receipts and Payment Account: Records all cash transactions, whether revenue or capital, specific to a particular accounting period. It's based on the cash book and is a real account.
  • Income and Expenditure Account: Similar to a profit & loss account but only records revenue transactions pertaining to the current year. It's a nominal account.

Specific Items in Accounting for NPOs

  • Subscriptions: Periodic amounts paid by members. Treated as revenue.
  • Consumable Items: Stationery, medicine, etc. Treated as revenue expenditure.
  • General Donations: Can be used for any purpose. Treated as revenue receipt.
  • Specific Donations: Limited purpose use. Treated as capital receipt.
  • Entrance Fees: Paid when joining an organization. Treated as revenue receipt.
  • Sale of old sports material/newspaper: Recorded as revenue receipt.
  • Life Membership Fees: One-time payments for lifetime membership. Treated as capital receipt.
  • Legacy: Donations (cash or property) as per will. Treated as capital receipt.
  • Endowment Fund: Amounts dedicated to a specific purpose. Treated as capital receipt.
  • Honorariums: Payments to recognize contributions, such as guest lectures. Treated as an expense.
  • Upkeep expenses (lawn, maintenance): Treated as expenses.

Important Income Formats

  • Organizations create income, expenditure, and balance sheet statements for a specific accounting period, usually one year.
  • The formats include columns for various types of cash transactions.
  • Specific sections track outstanding amounts, prepaid amounts, and adjustments as required.
