provide functional expense reporting
• Going forward, all nonprofits will be required to disclose this information,
which can be presented
– On the face of the Statement of Activities,
– As a schedule in the notes to the financial statements, or
– As a financial statement (the Statement of Functional Expenses).
• Additionally, disclosure of the methods used to allocate expenses to the
functional categories will be required

the programs and supporting services benefited.

The financial statements report certain categories of expenses that are
attributable to more than one program or supporting function. Therefore,
these expenses require allocation on a reasonable basis that is
consistently applied. The expenses that are allocated include depreciation,
interest, and office and occupancy, which are allocated on a square-
footage basis, as well as salaries and benefits, which are allocated on the
basis of estimates of time and effort.
