2. These are those organisations which are established for a
charitable or social purpose and not with a view to earn profit.
These also render services to their members and to the society
on voluntary basis.
3. • SERVICE :- Such organisations are set up to provide service to a specific group or the public
at large such as education, health care, sports, entertainment etc. The main aim of these
organisations is to provide service either free of cost or at nominal rates and not to earn
profit.
• FORM:- Since the basic objective of NPO is to render services such as social, religious,
educational, charitable, etc. so they take the form of clubs, schools, colleges, societies, trusts
or charitable bodies.
• SEPARATE LEGAL ENTITY:- As every organisation has distinct entity from its members, so
has the NPO. Its name and entity is different from the people who have contributed towards
its capital fund. It takes birth by law and winds up in the same way.
4. • NO PROFIT MOTIVE:- These institutions do not operate with a view to earn profit
rather their aim is to promote education, sports, charity, religion, culture, etc.
• ACCOUNTS:- They prepare financial statements at the end of their accounting
period in the form of RECEIPTS AND PAYMENT ACCOUNT, INCOME AND
EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT and BALANCE SHEET.
• MAJOR SOURCES OF INCOME (FUNDING):- These organisations collect
subscriptions from their members, grants from government, donations, income
from investments etc. to meet the operating cost and cost of projects undertaken.
• SURPLUS NOT DISTRIBUTED AMONG ITS MEMBERS:- Current year’s surplus in
the form of excess of income over expenditure is not distributed among its
members. It is added to Capital Fund.

18. LIFE MEMBERSHIP FEE :- It is accounted as a Capital Receipt
and added to Capital Fund on the liability side of the balance
sheet.
It would be improper to account Life membership fee as income
because a Life Member makes one time payment and avails
services all through his life.

19. LEGACY:- It is the amount which a not-for-profit organisation will receive
as per the will of a deceased person . Since it is non-recurring in nature so it
is capitalised and added to capital fund on the liabilities side of the balance
sheet . However if it ,is for a specific purpose , it should be capitalised in the
name of the ‘fund’.
BALANCE SHEET
liabilities Amount Asset Amount
Legacy xxxx
20. SALE OF OLD ASSETS:- It appears on the debit side of Receipt and
Payment a/c. It is a capital receipt and as such should not be transferred to
Income and Expenditure a/c.
However, the profit and loss on the sale of an asset must be taken to the
Income and Expenditure a/c.
For example, if the book value of furniture appearing in the books is Rs.
5000, out of which furniture of Rs. 1000 is sold for Rs. 400, the loss of Rs.
600 will be taken to the debit side of Income and Expenditure a/c and the
furniture of Rs. 4000 (Rs. 5000 less Rs. 1000) will be shown on the Assets
side of the Balance Sheet.
22. SALE OF OLD NEWSPAPERS AND SPORTS MATERIAL:- The
sale of old newspapers is an income and is CREDITED to
INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT.
• As regards sale of sports material is concerned, it is also
considered as income of the organisation. Sports material
consumed is in the nature of depreciation of sports material so
it is shown on the DEBIT side of INCOME AND
EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT.
• If this consumed sports material is sold, money realised is in the
nature of income to be CREDITED to INCOME AND
EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT.
24. HONORARIUM:- Special payment made to a person who is not the regular
employee of organisation and rendered some special and extra ordinary
service to the organisation is called Honorarium.
This is made on regular basis that is why it is considered as revenue in nature
and will be DEBITED to INCOME AND EXPENDITURE A/c.

25. SUBSCRIPTION
• SUBSCRIPTION:- It is the amount paid by the members of NPO on
periodical basis so that their membership is not cancelled. Thus, it
is a recurring source of revenue from its members.
• It is the main source of revenue of NPO so it is CREDITED to
INCOME AND EXPENDITURE A/c.
• It is appeared on the DEBIT side of RECEIPTS AND PAYMENT
A/c.
26. Broadly, subscription received has the following FOUR adjustments :-
1. SUBSCRIPTION O/S AT THE END OF CURRENT YEAR :- Since
subscription has not been received so far, so on accrual basis it is ADDED to
subscription received on the credit side of income and expenditure a/c and
will be shown on asset side of b/s.
2. SUBSCRIPTION O/S AT THE BEGINNING OF CURRENT YEAR :- It refers
to o/s subscription of last year and it is DEDUCTED from the subscription
received on the credit side of income and expenditure a/c and will not be
shown in closing b/s.
3. SUBSCRIPTION RECEIVED IN ADVANCE AT THE END OF CURRENT
YEAR :- It refers to income received in advance and hence it is DEDUCTED
from subscription received on credit side of income and expenditure a/c and
will be shown on liability side of b/s.

37. GENERAL FUND Vs.
SPECIFIC FUND
• As, the excess of assets over liabilities in case of ‘ not-
for-profit organisations ’ is called ‘ capital fund ‘.
The balance of Income & Expenditure acc. in the form
of surplus/deficit is transferred to capital fund every
year. This fund is also called ‘ Accumulated Fund or
General Fund’.
38. • Specific Funds are those funds which have been constituted for some
specific purpose like Prize Fund ,Match Fund ,Sports Fund, Building
Fund etc.
• The income generated from these specific funds and expenses
incurred related to these funds are directly adjusted from the
concerned funds on the liabilities side of balance sheet and these are
never adjusted in Income & Expenditure A/C.
• For instance, in the absence of match fund , match receipts & match
expenses will be shown in the Income & Expenditure A/C .
• This will affect t

40. FUND BASED
ACCOUNTING
• When funds are created for some specific purposes such as
sports fund, building fund, prize fund, etc. then receipts and
income relating to that fund are credited to that fund and
payments and expenses will be debited to that fund .
• So we can say fund based accounting is a book-keeping
technique whereby separate self- balancing sets of assets,
liability , income, expenses and fund balance accounts are
maintained for each contribution for a specific purpose.
