Recording journal entries for nonprofits

Prepare journal entries to record the following transactions.

1. Donor A gave the nonprofit a cash gift of $50,000 in June 2019, telling the nonprofit the gift could not be used until 2020. (Identify the affected net asset classification(s) in the journal entries made both in June 2019 and at the start of 2020.)

2. Attorney Howard Gorman volunteered his services to Taconic Singers, a nonprofit. He spent 12 hours preparing contracts for the services of professional singers and 8 hours serving as an usher before performances. Gorman normally gets $200 an hour for legal services, and Taconic normally pays $8 an hour when it hires ushers.

3. Donor B sent a letter to a nonprofit, saying she would donate $20,000 in cash to the nonprofit, to be used for any purpose the nonprofits trustees desired, provided the nonprofit raised an equal amount of cash from other donors.

4. Regarding the previous transaction, the nonprofit raised $23,000 in cash from other donors and then notified Donor B of its success in meeting her condition for the gift.

5. Donor C donates to a local museum a work of art having a fair value of $5,000, with the understanding that the museum will sell it at auction and use the funds for its general activities.

6. Donor D advises a university that he has established an irrevocable charitable remainder trust, administered by his attorney, whereby his wife will receive income from the trust as long as she lives. At her death, the remaining trust assets will be distributed to the university as a permanent endowment. The universitys actuary estimates the fair value of the universitys beneficial interest to be $400,000.

7. As of December 31, 2019, the fair value of investments held in perpetuity by a nonprofit had increased by $30,000.
