Question #301305
Net assets with donor restrictions and net assets without donor restrictions
The total net assets in the statement of financial position is the total equity of a not-for-profit entity. The equity is reported in two categories, net assets with donor restrictions and net assets without donor restrictions, depending on whether there are donor-imposed constraints on asset use. Within these categories or in the notes, additional detail can be included about donors’ wishes for their contributed assets.

The total net assets in the statement of financial position for a nongovernmental not-for-profit organization would include “Net assets with donor restrictions and net assets without donor restrictions.” This distinction reflects the nature of the resources available to the organization and how they can be used, according to donor stipulations or the absence thereof.
Not-for-profit organizations categorize their net assets based on whether they are subject to donor-imposed restrictions. Assets with donor restrictions are funds designated for specific purposes, time frames, or acquisition of long-lived assets, and can only be used in accordance with the donor’s stipulations. Assets without donor restrictions are available for use at the organization’s discretion for any purpose in carrying out its mission.
Other options mentioned, such as “Assets with donor restrictions, assets without donor restrictions, and net liabilities,” “Total current assets and long-term assets,” and “Total current net assets and liabilities,” mix elements that would not be collectively categorized solely as “total net assets.” Liabilities, for instance, are not included in net assets but are subtracted from total assets to determine net assets. Similarly, distinguishing between current and long-term assets or liabilities is a different aspect of categorizing the statement of financial position and not directly related to the categorization of net assets per donor restrictions.
