Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued an exposure draft of a Proposed Accounting Standards Update, Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities, which would make significant changes to the current reporting rules.  The FASB believes that each of the proposed changes will improve the usefulness of the information provided to stakeholders, reduce the complexity of reporting, or both.  One significant focus of the changes is to make clear which funds are available for expenditure in the organization’s discretion and which are not.
