CHAPTER 18
UNDERSTANDING THE ISSUES
1. Separating the accounting for current activ-
ities into restricted and unrestricted funds
allows for detailed reporting of resources
and spending. This is often done to satisfy
2. Users of not-for-profit financial information
are interested in the fair value of invest-
ments regardless of their trading status.
Not-for-profits, particularly foundations and
3. Public support captures all forms of dona-
tions to a not-for-profit organization, includ-
ing direct contributions of all types (cash,
assets, services, reduced liabilities, free
of goods or services, and realized and un-
realized earnings from investments.
4. A contribution is a nonreciprocal transac-
tion where one part gives something of
contribution. In the second example, a lia-
bility to the ultimate recipient is recorded.
5. A VHWO must include a statement of func-
tional expense as part of its financial
detailed expense patterns by program.
6. (Appendix) A VHWO may wish to present
its financial information on a fund basis ra-

EXERCISE 18-3
(1) The measurement focus of state and local government’s government-type activities is flows
of financial resources, whereas the measurement focus of voluntary health and welfare
organizations (VHWOs) is flows of economic resources. Some financial activities of a gov-
ernment, such as those of operating a utility, may be better reported (i.e., the financial

(3) Depreciation expense is reported in the statement of activities of a government. Accumu-
(4) A voluntary health and welfare organization may use a separate fund to account for fixed
assets called the Plant Fund or Land, Building, and Equipment Fund.
If capital assets are purchased by the Plant Fund, the usual entry is made as follows:
Land, Building, and Equipment …………………………………………. xxx
Cash or Some Payable ………………………………………………. xxx
The purpose of a voluntary health and welfare organization is to provide a service to the
community. Because there are usually numerous voluntary health and welfare organizations
competing for donations, it is only proper that donors be able to evaluate the cost of the ser-
vices provided in an effort to see which organizations use donations most efficiently. The
use of fixed assets in an organization represents a cost of providing a service, and so it is
appropriate for a voluntary health and welfare organization to show depreciation as a cost of
providing its service to the community.
The Land, Building, and Equipment Fund records any gain or loss on the sale of fixed
assets as revenue of the fund. If the proceeds of the sale are not legally required to be rein-
vested in fixed assets, the funds should be transferred to the unrestricted fund by entries re-
flected as direct additions and reductions to the respective fund balances.
