Statement of Functional Expenses
Friday, May 1, 2020 - Friday, April 30, 2021
Like many other businesses, not-for-profits (NFPs) incur costs such as salaries, rent and utilities. Unique to NFPs is the requirement that those expenses be classified in the financial statements according to purpose, or function, for which they were used. The statement of functional expenses assists readers of the NFP's financial statements in associating expenses with the service efforts and accomplishments of the organization. This CPE course offers you detail-rich examples and case studies that will help you allocate costs and accurately prepare the statement of functional expenses.
