  • Non-profit organizations draw the Income and Expenditure account to ascertain the outcome of their activities over a given period. This account is similar to a Profit and Loss account, which is used by a profit organization. In the case of a non-profit organization, as the focus is not on earning a profit, the figure thus obtained is referred to as a surplus, where income is greater than expenditure, or a deficit, where expenditure is greater than income. This figure is finally transferred to the Capital Fund account in the balance sheet.
