105.06 - Statewide Accounting Policy - Foundations

Policy

GASB Statement No. 39 impacts colleges and universities that have foundations and similarly affiliated organizations whose financial data is not currently blended in the institution's annual report. These organizations must be included as part of the institution's financial reporting entity (i.e., as discretely presented component units) if they are found to be "significant." The University of North Carolina General Administration and the Community College System Office have established a uniform threshold for identifying which organizations are "significant." Under this threshold, organizations whose assets or revenues are 5% or greater of the institution's assets or revenues will be considered "significant" to the institution.
