Choose a not-for-profit organization of interest to you, and locate its annual report or financial statements. Annual reports can usually be found on the organization's website. Note: If you have difficulty finding some organizations or the annual reports or financials, contact your instructor for assistance.
Find the line item totals for the following in the financial statements/annual report:
Total revenue,
Program service expenses, and
Total expenses.
Calculate the ratio of the program service expenses to the total expenses.
Post your findings on the discussion board along with your evaluation of the organization's effectiveness--based on the calculated ratio, do you believe they are managing their expenses well?
In responding to your peers, would you feel comfortable donating to the organization (based on their ratio, not necessarily other aspects of their work). Why or why not?
Your client is in the planning phase for a major plant expansion, which will involve the construction of a new warehouse. The assistant controller does not believe that interest cost can be included in the cost of the warehouse, because it is a financing expense. Others on the planning team believe that some interest cost can be included in the cost of the warehouse, but no one could identify the specific authoritative guidance for this issue. Your supervisor asks you to research this issue.
