It shows how to unify financial reporting requirements without compromising the organization's accuracy and accountability. Authors Russy D. Sumariwalla and Wilson C. Levis combine over fifty years of experience in nonprofit accounting and reporting to describe the key elements of a unified financial reporting system. They also draw valuable lessons from a three-year project formed to improve the quality of reporting on IRS Form 990 and to strengthen public accountability. Known as "990 in 2000," this sectorwide project involved the IRS, the National Association of Attorneys General, the National Association of State Charity Officials, the Greater Washington Society of CPAs, the California Society of CPAs, the National Health Council, the United Way of America, and other organizations. Armed with the latest information, the authors discuss a unified chart of accounts, activity-level accounting, cost allocation, and computerization. They also explore ways of unifying internal and external financial reports, including GAAP statements, grant reports, and others. This guide offers a powerful resource section including information on various appendices program service reporting, government regulation, voluntary standards expert review groups, and more. Much more than a standard accounting manual, Unified Financial Reporting System for Not-for-Profit Organizations is a thoughtful guide to improving financial reporting so organizations can focus on the business of fulfilling mission, developing essential programs, and serving communities.
