In-Kind Donations

In-Kind donations - how do you report them financially?
- A charity may issue an official donation receipt if a person provides a service to the charity. The charity pays for the service, and the person then returns the payment to the charity as a gift. In such circumstances, two transactions have taken place, the first being the provision of a service and the payment flowing therefrom, and the second being a gift proper.
- The parties should be advised to proceed by way of an exchange of cheques. This ensures the presence of an audit trail, as the donor must account for the taxable income that would be realized either as remuneration (in which case the charity may also be required to issue a T4 slip) or as business income.
