The donors stipulated that their contributions be used to purchase equipment for the hospital. As of June 30, 20X9, the end of the hospital's fiscal year, $12,000 of the contributions had been spent on equipment acquisitions. In the hospital's general fund, what account would be credited to recognize the release of the restrictions on the temporarily restricted contributions used to acquire equipment

Answer 1

Answer: Net Assets Released from Equipment Acquisition Restriction.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the stipulations by a donor have been satisfied, the assets involved can be removed from being restricted to now being unrestricted. The account credited to recognize this is known as the Net assets released from *asset name* acquisition restriction.

In the above case, the company purchased some equipment with the money they were donated which means that the equipment had satisfied the stipulation for which they were donated funds for. The Net Assets Released from Equipment Acquisition Restriction thus needs to be credited.
