4 4 THIS SECTION PROVIDES: An overview of significant proposal components Suggested action items and An overview of comments submitted to the FASB by the AICPA

5 NET ASSET CLASSES 5 Current Reporting Proposed Update Action Items AICPA Comment Unrestricted Temporarily Restricted Permanently Restricted “Donor Restrictions” With & Without on face of financial statement Permanent and Temporary in footnotes Only outside interests can impose restrictions Boards may designate, not restrict Talk to lenders about debt covenants Segregation of assets limited to use should be required on face of fin. Statement Disclosure nature of amount of net assets w/o restrictions

6 STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS 6 Current Reporting Proposed Update Action Items AICPA Comment Indirect method focusing on changes in assets and liabilities Consistent with methods used by businesses Direct Method Focuses on nature of receipts and disbursements Significant overhaul of internal accounting systems to capture relevant information May cause stakeholder confusion Undue burden on NFPS Should be deliberated concurrently with for- profit entities

7 REPORTING EXPENSES 7 Current Reporting Proposed Update Action Items AICPA Comment Functional Expense statement/Disclosure Required for VHW orgs Report expenses by nature & function Reported: on face of statement, separate statement or in footnotes VHW’s no longer required to prepare full statement Required to report methods of allocating costs Set up allocation methods May need to revamp : chart of accounts or spreadsheets Create controls to monitor allocations & operational changes Required only for NFPs that derive revenue primarily from voluntary contributions and the general public

8 OPERATING INDICATOR 8 Current Reporting Proposed Update Action Items AICPA Comment Prescribed for healthcare – all others define based on nature ( may lead to inconsistent classification) Add 2 subtotals to statement of activities – intermediate measures #1: operating revenues, support, expenses, gains/losses w/o donor imposed restrictions & before internal transfers #2: effects of internal transfers Intermediate measures only include amounts directed at NFP’s purpose of existence Transfers = broad connotation & range from small to significant Discussions with stakeholders about nature of internal transfers & concept of availability Heightened importance of information reporting between development and finance Objectives are supported 2 measure approach will cause confusion; mission dimension will vary and cause lack of comparability Reporting based on HC rules supported Should be deliberated concurrently w/ for profit entities

9 DISCLOSURE OF LIQUIDITY 9 Current Reporting Proposed Update Action Items AICPA Comment Classified balance sheet required for HC NFP’s Assets limited to use required to be present as non-current Expands disclosure Includes inflows and outflows based on NFP’s cycle – no more than 90 days A/P, Accrued payroll, & A/R information should be available Other assets & liabilities may be difficult to compute Not in favor Mandate classified balance sheet for all NFPs Concerned it will add cost, & complexity w/ little value

10 ADDITIONAL PROPOSED UPDATES Investment expenses must be netted against investment income Operating revenues & cash flows to include gifts of or for long-lived assets Add disclosure about spending underwater endowment funds Interest expense is not directed at carrying out an org’s purpose & should not be classified as operating activity 10
