Notes

"Brief no. 4 is the second of two briefs that summarize results from detailed case studies of the financial management of nine nonprofit organizations. It focuses on public financial reporting and addresses issues such as weak methods for allocating staff salary costs to program, administrative, and fundraising expenses; the need for greater sophistication in accounting for capital gifts and in-kind donations; and the effects of unique IRS reporting rules on overhead and fundraising cost ratios" -- web site"Facts and perspectives"Check s.h.
