10 Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements May 31, 2008 Note 1 Nature of Organization Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology, Inc. (the School), a private, not-for-profit school, was founded in 1974 to provide a Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) degree. The School offers additional programs, including Master of Science in Clinical Psychopharmacology, Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology, Master of Arts in School Psychology, Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study in School Psychology, Graduate Certificate in Executive Coaching and continuing education courses. Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Financial Statement Presentation Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 117, "Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations", the School reports information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets as determined by donor-imposed restrictions: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets, and permanently restricted net assets (see Note 9). Statement of Financial Position - The School presents an unclassified statement of financial position whereby current assets and current liabilities have not been segregated because the essential nature of the School s operations is such that current obligations will be satisfied out of funds received for the subsequent school year s tuition. Statement of Functional Expenses - The School s statement of activities reports expenses by their functional classification such as by major programs and supporting activities. Certain expenses have been allocated among the program and supporting activities benefited. A statement of functional expenses is included to provide information about expenses by their natural classification. Contributions and Donor Restrictions - Under SFAS No. 116, "Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made", contributions, including unconditional promises to give, are recognized as revenues in the period made. Contributions receivable that are, in effect, "unconditional promises to give" are recorded at the present value of future cash flows. Conditional promises to give are not recognized until they become unconditional, that is, at the time when the conditions on which they depend are substantially met. Contributions of assets other than cash are recorded at their estimated fair values. Contributions to be received after one year are discounted at an appropriate discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. Amortization of discount is recorded as additional contribution revenue in accordance with donor-imposed restrictions, if any, on the contributions. An allowance for uncollectible contributions receivable may be provided based upon management's judgment of potential defaults. The determination includes such factors as prior collection history, type of contribution and nature of fundraising activity (see Note 4). Contributions of cash or other assets are recorded as restricted support, thereby increasing temporarily restricted net assets, if they are received with donor stipulations that limit, specify or otherwise restrict the use of such contributions. When a donor restriction expires, either by use of the funds for the specified purpose or by the expiration of a time restriction, temporarily restricted net assets are reclassified to unrestricted net assets and reported in the statement of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Endowment funds established by donor restrictions to permanently maintain the principal, while allowing the use of income generated there from, are classified as permanently restricted net assets. Income derived from the investment of endowment funds is reported as unrestricted revenue or as restricted revenue depending on the terms of the donor instrument. 8

11 Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.) Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Cash and Cash Equivalents - For the purpose of reporting the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes amounts on-hand and in bank accounts with no restrictions on withdrawals. Short-term investments and deposits with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents (see Note 3). Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is reported on the face of the School s statement of financial position. The allowance is established via a provision for bad debts charged to the statement of activities. On a periodic basis, management evaluates the School s accounts receivable and establishes or adjusts its allowance to an amount that it believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on accounts that may become uncollectible, based on evaluations of the collectibility of individual accounts, the School s history of prior loss experience and on current economic conditions. Accounts are written off and charged against the allowance when management believes that the collectibility of the specific account is unlikely. Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated on the basis of cost (see Note 6). Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. The School s capitalized intellectual assets represent the development costs of a collaborative campus e-management system. The collaborative campus includes , website information and record storage allowing students, faculty, administrators and alumni the ability to work electronically for increased effectiveness and efficiency. The e-campus includes recruiting and admissions, registration, financial aid, grading, and advising. Artwork consists of paintings and sculptures donated to the School by contemporary American artists. The artwork is recorded at fair value and is not subject to depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives: Furniture and equipment Library books Leasehold improvements Intellectual assets 3-7 years 25 years 6-10 years 5 years See Note 6 for the components of property and equipment. Investments - Investments are composed of equity securities and mutual funds investing in marketable securities and are stated at market value. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are reported in the statement of activities (see Note 5). Realized and unrealized net gains on permanently restricted funds are recorded in temporarily restricted net assets since, as far as can be determined, the donors did not stipulate the treatment for investment appreciation and, in accordance with Massachusetts law, a portion of the appreciation can be spent with a vote of the Board of Trustees. Deferred Tuition Revenues - Students reservation deposits and tuition payments received for the fall semester programs are related to the forthcoming fiscal year and, therefore, have been deferred from recognition in the statement of activities. Similarly, a proportionate amount of tuition due or received for summer programs in session at the fiscal year-end is deferred from recognition, as well as other programs whose revenue is recorded in the period in which it is earned (see Note 8). 9

12 Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.) Student Loan Sale Gains - During February of 2006, the School entered into an agreement (referred to as the "School as Lender" program) to sell the title and all rights to student loans originating from eligible School students, under the U.S. Government Higher Education Act's Federal Family Education Program, to a nonrelated third party (Student Loan Express, Inc.). The agreement had allowed for the School to receive a premium gain for all eligible loans originated by the School and sold to Student Loan Express, Inc. However, applicable federal regulations restrict the use of funds to need-based grant programs to supplement, not to supplant, non-federal funds that are used for need-based programs. Accordingly, the premium fee received by the School is recorded as a gain temporarily restricted by law, thereby increasing temporarily restricted net assets until such time as it is applied to student need-based grant programs (see Note 9). In addition, federal regulations allowed the School to charge an origination fee on loans made to eligible students and to also charge a reasonable fee for direct costs incurred in administration of the program. During both the years ended May 31, 2008 and 2007, the School neither charged an origination fee or an administration fee. During February of 2008, the School was notified that Student Loan Express was terminating the School as Lender program agreement and will no longer purchase eligible student loans. The School has not currently found a replacement for Student Loan Express and, in effect, has discontinued the program as of May 31, Fees for Services - Through its faculty, staff and students, the School provides counseling and administrative support services to other organizations providing well-being and mental health services on a fee-for-service basis. Advertising - The School expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $96,978 and $114,821 for the years ended May 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Tax Status - The School is recognized as an organization exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements. Note 3 Cash Cash consists of the following at May 31: Checking $ 378,132 $ 73,237 Sweep Account 350, ,000 Money Market 585, ,650 $ 1,313,907 $ 1,264,887 The School maintains its operating cash deposits with two high-quality financial institutions.
