Feed the Needy ( FTN), a VHWO, has three programs:
( a) providing meals for the needy in its own facility ( Service to Needy program); (b) providing meals for senior citizens through a contract with the County Department for the Aging ( Service to Seniors program) and distributing food to other facilities in the area that serve the needy ( Food Distribution program). FTN maintains a warehouse to store donated food and has cooking and serving facilities. It does not use fund accounting. Prepare journal entries to record the following transactions and events, which occurred during calendar year 2013:
1. On January 10, 2013, in response to its annual fund- raising drive to finance day to day operations, FTN received $ 150,000 of cash donations and $ 400,000 of promises to donate cash. Based on experience, FTN expected to collect 80 percent of the promises to donate cash, all of which was to be used to finance its activities during 2013.
2. During the year, FTN received cash of $ 310,000 from the promises to give ( see transaction 1) and wrote off the remaining receivables as uncollectible.
3. To meet its expanding operations, FTN determined that it needed to add storage facilities at an estimated cost of $ 400,000. Dr. Ted Golfit, noted research engineer, advised FTN that he would contribute $ 200,000, provided FTN raised an equal amount from other sources.
4. Attorneys A. and E. Gorman provided free legal services to FTN during the year. FTN would have purchased the services for $ 10,000 if they had not been donated.

7. FTN contract with the County Department for the Aging called for the county to make quarterly advance payments to FTN.
