The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) provides guidance for communication of a not-for-profit organization’s (NFPO) financial performance and condition to stakeholders (e.g. donors, grantors, creditors). To assist management and auditors in preparing financial statements and performing engagements, this course provides an overview of the accounting and reporting framework applicable to NFPOs that apply FASB standards. It also discusses accounting by specific nonprofits ? colleges and universities, voluntary health and welfare organizations, and health care entities. Finally, the course describes financial analysis and ratios that can be useful to analyze the financial fitness of NFPOs.
