Urban Hospice (UH) is a not-for-profit organization. It receives some funding from the government, but most of its funding comes from donations and bequests. It uses the deferral method to account for contributions and an encumbrance system to control expenditures. For simplicity, UH accounts for all of its activities through an operations fund.
UH has provided the following selected transactions for the current year:
a. At the beginning of the year, UH unexpectedly received $1,000,000 from the government to purchase three monitoring machines.
UH immediately purchased the machines. Since UH purchased the machines as soon as the funds were received, it did not prepare a purchase order for them. At the end of the year, UH took depreciation of $200,000 on the machines.
b. UH's annual Christmas fundraising gala generated $3,011,000 in cash and $820,000 in pledges. Based on previous years' experiences, UH estimates that 85 percent of the pledges will be collected in the first three months…

This benefactor specified that the gift be invested in perpetuity with income restricted to provide speaker fees for a lecture series named for the benefactor. The not-for-profit is permitted to choose suitable investments and is responsible for all other costs associated with initiating and administering this series.Neither the donor’s stipulation nor the law addresses gains and losses on this permanent endowment.
