Four Major Fund Groupings
Endowment Funds
• Represent resources that have been transferred under conditions
that limit expenditures to the income that is produced by such
resources.
• Assets may be transferred directly to the hospital, or they may be
transferred to a trustee who administers them for the benefit of
the institution.
• An endowment may also be created by the action of the governing
board of the hospital.
• Terms of endowment may place no restrictions on the use of the
endowment income, or they may specify a particular purpose for
which the income is to be used.
• In the absence of restrictions, endowment income becomes
available to the general fund; when there are restrictions, income
is reported in a temporary fund.
