FAQs on Worksheet: Accounting for Not-for-Profit Organizations - Accountancy Class 12 - Commerce

1. What are the main differences between accounting for for-profit and not-for-profit organizations?
Ans. The primary differences include the focus on accountability rather than profitability, the use of fund accounting in not-for-profits, and the classification of revenue sources. Not-for-profits emphasize transparency to stakeholders and often rely on donations and grants instead of sales revenue.
2. How should not-for-profit organizations report their financial statements?
Ans. Not-for-profit organizations typically prepare financial statements that include a statement of financial position (balance sheet), a statement of activities (income statement), and a statement of cash flows. These statements should reflect the organization's net assets and changes in net assets, broken down by restrictions on use.
3. What is fund accounting, and why is it important for not-for-profit organizations?
Ans. Fund accounting is a system that emphasizes accountability over profitability by segregating resources into various funds based on their intended use. This is important for not-for-profits to track restricted and unrestricted funds, ensuring that resources are used according to donor intentions and legal requirements.
4. How do not-for-profit organizations handle donations in their accounting?
Ans. Donations are typically recorded as revenue when they are received, and they may be classified as unrestricted, temporarily restricted, or permanently restricted depending on the donor's stipulations. This classification impacts how the funds can be used and reported in financial statements.
5. What are the key financial indicators for assessing the performance of a not-for-profit organization?
Ans. Key financial indicators include the program efficiency ratio, which measures the percentage of expenses spent on programs versus administrative costs, the fundraising efficiency ratio, and the reserve ratio, which assesses the organization's ability to cover its expenses with available resources. These indicators help stakeholders evaluate financial health and effectiveness.
