    Terry, an auditor, is performing test work for a not-for-profit hospital. Listed below are components of the Statement of Operations:

    Revenue relating to charity care $100,000

    Bad debt expense 70,000

    Net Assets released from restrictions and used for operations 50,000

    Other revenue 80,000

    Net Patient Service Revenue (includes revenue related to charity care) 500,000

    What amount would be reported as total revenues, gains, and other support on the Statement of Operations?

    A. $460,000

    Total revenues, gains, and other support on the Statement of Operations includes all Operating Revenues reported under Unrestricted Net Assets in the Statement of Activities.

    This amount includes Net Patient Service Revenues (net of $100,000 Charity Care Revenues) of $400,000, Other Revenue (often called Other Operating Revenue) of $80,000, the portion of Temporarily Restricted Net Assets used for operations of $50,000 during the current period, and a reduction for bad debts of $70,000 for a total of $460,000.

    B. $530,000

    C. $580,000

    D. $630,000


    If this is a non profit hospital, then why are you excluding charity care revenues?

    I believe the charity care revenues are considered restricted assets because there are terms to be satisfied for their use.

    FAR- 77
    AUD -49, 71, 84
    REG -56,75!
    BEC -75

    Massachusetts CPA (non reporting) since 3/12.

    You ignore charity care revenues because it's a healthcare service that is never expected to result in revenue or cash flow to the hospital.
