During 2013. it received unrestrictedpledges of 5600000, 60 percent of which were payable in 2013, with the remainder payable in 2014 (for use in 2014).Officials estimate that 15 percent of all pledges will be uncollectible.at How much should Wilson Center report as contribution revenue for 2013?b. In addition, a local social worker, earning $20 per hour working for the state government. contributed 600 hours of timeto Wilson Center at no charge. Without these donated services, the organization would have hired an additional staffperson. How should Wilson Center record the contributed service?

Answer 1

A. $306,000, B. $12,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The solutions to the problems are worked out below

A. Anticipated pledge = $600000

since 15% is uncollectible, Net pledge therefore

(15/100) x 600,000 = 90,000

Net pledge therefore = 600,000 - 90,000

= $510,000

Amount for unrestricted use in 2013 is 60% of the net pledge

Unrestricted fund for 2013 = (60/100) x 510,000

= $306,000

Amount for unrestricted use in 2014 therefore is 40% of the net pledge

Unrestricted fund for 2014 = (40/100) x 510,000

= $204,000

B. Donated service will be calculated as hourly rate multiplied by number of hours worked.

i.e $20 per hour x 600 hours = $12,000

The donated service should be reported as unrestricted asset.
