6.C. - Page 63 of 124 <br />Redwood City Improvement Association <br />Notes to Financial Statements <br />November 30, 2019 and 2018 <br />Functional Allocation of Expenses <br />The costs of program and supporting services activities have been summarized on a functional basis in the <br />statements of activities. The statements of functional expenses present the natural classification detail of <br />expenses by function. Accordingly, certain costs have been allocated among the programs and supporting <br />services benefited. The financial statements report certain categories of expenses that are attributed to more <br />than one program or supporting function. Therefore, expenses require allocation on a reasonable basis that is <br />consistently applied. The expenses that are allocated include occupancy, depreciation, and amortization, which <br />are allocated on a square footage basis, as well as salaries and wages, benefits, payroll taxes, professional <br />services, office expenses, information technology, interest, insurance, and other, which are allocated on the <br />basis of estimates of time and effort. <br />Accounting Standard Update (ASU) Effective in the Current Year <br />Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued ASU 2016-14, Presentation of Financial Statements for <br />Not -For -Profit Entities. The provisions of the ASU replace the existing three classes of net assets with two new <br />classes (net assets without donor restrictions and net assets with donor restrictions). The Association has <br />adopted this update in the current year. <br />Subsequent Events <br />The Association has evaluated subsequent events through February 21, 2020, the date the financial statements <br />were available to be issued. Management has determined that there were no subsequent events or <br />transactions that would have a material impact on the current year financial statements. <br />Note 2 - Liquidity and Availability <br />Financial assets available for general expenses, that is, without donor or other restrictions limiting their use, <br />within one year of the statement of financial position date, comprise of $758,154 cash and cash equivalents. <br />Note 3 - Market Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities <br />The Association determines the fair market values of certain financial instruments based on the fair value <br />hierarchy established in FASB ASC 820-10-50, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs <br />and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of <br />inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The following provides a summary of the hierarchical levels used <br />to measure fair value: <br />Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. <br />Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities. <br />Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. <br />The Association did not have any assets or liabilities recorded at fair value as of November 30, 2019. <br />N <br />269 <br />
