    I'm planning on working through my weakest parts first section by section and then taking 20 question progress tests starting Sunday night and Monday (hopefully). I also plan on getting some SIMS in to get familiar with looking in the AL if I get stuck.

    The next 6 days are going to FLY.

    Using Ninja MCQ, NINJA Notes, Audio, Flashcards and BLITZ, and 2014 Wiley Text

    FAR - (61,63)
    AUD - (68)

    Accountant, what is best in life? To crush your MCQs, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of their SIMS!

    Yes i am using Rogers too – I actually haven't used his homework help area in the past. Been more a another71 person 😀

    I suppose here I get a larger set of people with all sorts of reviews so we benefit from each other.

    Gains and losses on a specific security required by the donor to be held permanently. No donor instruction was made regarding gains or losses. In which asset category of NFP will you report these gains an losses?

    a) unrestricted

    b) permanently restricted

    c) Temporary restricted

    Hmmm If its permanent restricted and you have unrealized Gain and losses than wouldn't that just stay in with the permanent fund ?

    Its not like you can use those Gain / losses on other stuff because it is linked to the permanent fund account. Not sure – reviewing NFP later today.

    right now doing bonds…

    Answer is Permanent funds

    If a specific security is to be held permanently, the gains and the losses on that security are assumed to be changes in permanent restricted net asset absent a contrary donor instruction.

    ^^ – that is what I was thinking

    If you have an asset and its a “permanent fund” then if you get any Gains / Losses and in this case i was thinking its unrealized meaning you can't sell the asset because it is restricted by the donor.

    Then those gains need to stay in Permanent fund account.

    Now if you have an asset and it generate some sort of income then that income you can use in unrestricted items (assuming donor didn't restrict the how to use of the income generated from the asset in which it goes to temporary i think and transfers to unrestricted when the criteria is met)

    Sometimes I think I read the question the way I want to see it. Just another fine tuning until Domingo.
