Overview

Accounting for not-for-profit organisations, where reporting requirements and governance expectations differ from those of a standard business.

We handle the financial reporting, grant acquittals and compliance that funders, members and regulators expect, in a form the committee or board can actually read and act on.

What this covers

  • Monthly accounting
  • Financial reporting
  • Grant acquittals
  • BAS and IAS lodgement
  • Governance support
  • Reporting for committees and boards

What we will need

  • Bank statements and the accounting file
  • Grant agreements and funding conditions
  • Records of donations, membership and fundraising income
  • Payroll and volunteer expense records
  • Minutes or resolutions relevant to the finances
  • Last year's financial statements

Worth knowing

Reporting usually answers to more than one body.

Organisations registered as charities report to the ACNC as well as meeting their ATO obligations, and grant funding generally carries acquittal requirements set by the funder rather than by either regulator. Those obligations run on different calendars, so the accounts need to serve all of them.

Who this is for

Community organisations

Regular accounting and reporting for members and committees.

Registered charities

Reporting obligations alongside the ATO requirements.

Grant recipients

Acquittals prepared against what the funder agreed to.

Boards and committees

Figures presented clearly enough to govern from.
