Made a disbursement of $25,000 from the general fund assets without donor restrictions for the cash purchase of new equipment.
Received an unrestricted cash gift of $100,000 from a donor.
Sold investments in common stocks with a total carrying value of $50,000 of a restricted endowment fund for $55,000 before any dividends were earned on them. The donor-restricted gain is to remain in the fund without donor restrictions.
Sold general obligation bonds payable with a face amount of $1,000,000 at par with the proceeds required to be used for construction of a new building. This building was completed at a total cost of $1,000,000, and the total amount of bond issue proceeds was disbursed toward this cost. Disregard interest capitalization.
