Not-for-Profit Organizations

The AcSB has approved, subject to written ballot, amendments to several of the standards dealing with not-for-profit organizations in the 4400 series of Handbook Sections. The AcSB decided not to proceed with proposed amendments to Section 4450, Reporting Controlled and Related Entities by Not-for-Profit Organizations, pending the outcome of its deliberations on the future basis for setting standards for the not-for-profit sector. All of the other amendments proposed in the August 2007 Exposure Draft, “Not-for-Profit Organizations,” were approved with no significant changes.
