Summary of significant accounting policies The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for not-for-profit organizations. Revenue recognition follows the deferral method of accounting for contributions. Restricted contributions are recognized as revenue in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. Unrestricted contributions are recognized as revenue when received or receivable if the amount can be reasonably estimated and collection is reasonably assured. Endowments consist of externally restricted contributions received where the principal is required or intended to be maintained in perpetuity. Endowment contributions are recognized as direct increases in net assets. Investment income including realized and unrealized gains and losses is recognized as revenue when earned, except to the extent that the income must be added to endowment net of assets. Fees and on-line directory subscriptions relating to the period subsequent to year-end are recorded as deferred revenue. Financial Instruments All financial instruments included on the balance sheet are classified as either held for trading, loans and receivables, or other financial liabilities categories and are measured at fair value on initial recognition.

By the terms of the bequest, the income from the donation may be used as needed, $600,000 of the capital was treated as a deferred contribution and was fully disbursed by December 31, The remaining amount is to be treated as an endowment with an indefinite life. During the year, received permission to release $100,000 from the Estate of Margery Warren endowment into deferred contributions (Note 6). This restricted contribution will be recognized as revenue in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. Effective January 1, 2010, the Board established a policy with the objective of protecting the real value of the endowment net assets by limiting the amount of investment income made available for spending and requiring the reinvestment of any investment income earned in excess of this limit. The amount available for spending is calculated based on 4% of the market value of the opening balance of the individual funds. The preservation of capital is recorded as a direct increase in endowment net assets for externally endowed funds. In any year, should net investment income not be sufficient to fund the amount required for spending, an amount is transferred from endowment net assets to unrestricted net assets for this purpose. In 2011, there was an investment loss of $9,754 on endowments that was recorded as a direct reduction of endowment net assets. The amount made available for spending of $13,724 was transferred from endowment net assets to unrestricted net assets in the statement of changes in net assets.
