Having taken over as the Treasurer of a small non profit I decided that I needed a refresher course. The last time I took a course in non profits was in the spring of 1960. I was glad to see that there is a standard chart of accounts and the the main difference in accounting from for profits is how the profit is handled and how to handle specifically earmarked funds. Some of the treatments could be a little cleared and with some better examples. But,a good start

Useful, relatively easy tor read reference on not-for-profit (NFP) accounting, generally aimed at non-finance/accounting person. Not so useful for an organization using cash accounting methods (versus accrual), common in smaller NFPs. Some good ideas for low-end (i.e., <$50K income/year) NFP BOD members.

Good book, great illustrations. Very clear. However, if you’ve been doing corporate accounting for a number of years, this is pretty basic. Better for someone with limited experience. I was hoping for something a little more advanced.
