Learning to Love (or at least live with) Restricted Revenue
When finance, fundraising, and strategy are aligned, we can craft the best possible grant proposals and budgets. Who knew that grant restrictions are often of our own making? Who would have guessed that accounting standard changes could be the source of cutting-edge strategies for fundraising? This session explores how the latest changes in accounting standards for revenue recognition can be used to develop more effective grant proposal narratives and budgets. Whether you are a CEO, development professional, CFO, board member, or accountant, this presentation will provide you with an understanding of new standards on revenue recognition and restricted revenue. Then we’ll look at examples of how to use those concepts to develop grant proposals that bring in the most flexible funding possible.
