DasGute, a not-for-profit (NFP) organization located in Frankfurt, Germany, directly solicited CoolSchool, an NFP university located in Westport, CT, to enter into an agreement to establish a branch campus of CoolSchool in Frankfurt called CoolNewSchool. CoolNewSchool is not a separate legal entity and will operate as adegree-granting branch campus of CoolSchool in Frankfurt with the intent to provide students the same level of undergraduate education that it provides to students enrolled at its main campus in Westport. DasGute has entered into similar agreements with other U. S. universities in fulfillment of its mission to develop human resources through highquality education and research in Frankfurt. The boards of directors for both DasGute and CoolSchool require that CoolNewSchool prepare stand-alone financial statements in accordance with U. S. GAAP to demonstrate that revenue and expenses of CoolNewSchool have been generated and incurred inaccordance with the operating budgets described below. Eddie V., the new controller of CoolNewSchool isn’t sure how to account for its formation under U. S. GAAP but has knowledge of NFP accounting principles, specifically whether an agreement should be accounted for as an exchange transaction or a contribution within the stand-alone financial statements. Case FactsResponsibilities of CoolSchoolThe agreement requires that CoolSchool be responsible for the following activities:(1) hiring and terminating of personnel (including the dean, who will function as the CEO of CoolNewSchool) (2) recruiting, admitting, and enrolling students; (3) designing and delivering the academic curriculum; (4) establishing and implementing operational policies and procedures (including compensation for employees and tuition rates for students); and (5) authorizing expenditures once a budget is approved. Responsibilities of DasGuteThe agreement requires that DasGute be responsible to (1) construct, own, furnish, and maintain the site; (2) bear the costs of the joint advisory board; and (3) fund all necessary expenditures for CoolNewSchool, as stipulated by the annual budget.
