Description

The project includes four types of data collection. The first uses data reported annually by more than 250,000 501(c)(3) public charities on their IRS Form 990 and collected by the National Center for Charitable Statistics. Data on the Forms 990 includes such financial information as total contributed income, fundraising expenses, and special event revenue and expenses. Second is responses from one thousand five hundred nonprofit organizations to a survey geared toward learning more about their cost accounting practices and the details of their fundraising and administrative expenses. Third, we conducted nine in-depth case studies of representative organizations in order to better understand the dynamics of and thinking about overhead costs and cost accounting in nonprofits. Fourth, we surveyed 50 professional nonprofit accountants and auditors so that we could better understand their current and future role in accurate cost accounting and reporting.
