Slide 36.4

Non-profit-oriented organisations
 When an accountant talks about non-
profit-oriented organisations, they mean
charities, clubs and associations.
 These are organisations run for the benefit
of their members.
 Rather than producing income statements,
they prepare receipts and payments
accounts.

Income and expenditure accounts


Where there are assets and/or liabilities within
the organisation, the following statements are
also required:
 A statement of financial position detailing the
assets, liabilities and accumulated fund (capital).
 An income and expenditure account, which is
similar to an income statement, and shows either
a surplus of income over expenditure (profit), or a
deficit of income over expenditure (loss), and
which may include other trading accounts for
activities designed to make a profit.

Accounting for subscriptions (Continued)

Slide 36.20

Dealing with subscriptions


 Many subscriptions owing are never paid, so
many clubs do not include unpaid subs as an
asset in the statement of financial position.
 Many clubs accept a life membership charge
which entails a one-off payment. This payment is
credited to a life membership account and
transferred into the income and expenditure
account over a suitable period.
 Donations and entrance fees for new members
are shown as income in the year that they are
received.

Slide 36.21

Learning outcomes
You should have now learnt:
1. That a receipts and payments account does
not show the full financial position of an
organisation, except for one where the only
asset is cash and there are no liabilities
2. That an income and expenditure account is
drawn up to show either the surplus of income
over expenditure or the excess of expenditure
over income. These are the same as ‘profit’ or
‘loss’ in a profit-oriented organisation

Slide 36.22

Learning outcomes (Continued)


3. That the accumulated fund is basically the
same as a capital account
4. That although the main object of the
organisation is non-profit-oriented, certain
activities may be run at a profit (or lose
money) in order to help finance the main
objectives of the organisation
5. That in an examination you should treat
subscriptions owing at the end of a period
in the same way as accounts receivable,
unless told otherwise

Slide 36.23

Learning outcomes (Continued)


6. That donations are usually treated as
income in the period in which they are
received
7. That entrance fees are usually treated as
income in the year in which they are
received
8. That the treatment of life membership fees
is purely at the discretion of the
organisation, but that they are usually
amortised over an appropriate period
