Where/How Do I Record An Awarded Grant?
Hello. I was awarded a grant to use to purchase items to update my home daycare. I am not sure how to go about recording this. If I record the grant as additional income and the purchases I made as daycare purchases only a percentage of the grant income will be deducted (all was used for daycare purchases ie manipulatives, curriculum, etc.). If you have any advice that would be great. Thanks.

If I report the grant I just received as income ($500) and then deduct what I spent of the grant ($499.97), I only get a percentage of that as deductions (I don't even think it's 50%) . I LOSE money on that. It wasn't actual income- it's not cash, I can't spend it on anything non daycare related, and it was given as a credit towards a school supply website.
So...grants are costing me money. Wow. Way to go US government! |

Did they actually give you cash? For our toy grants, we send in an order form and our CCR&R just has the company send us the equipment. I'm just realizing now that I'm glad they do it this way so I don't have to worry about reporting it.
We also get a cash grant each year (if we meet the requirements) and that is just straight income. |

I'm wondering this too. I'm in Michigan and am applying for a grant. I have to list everything that I"m going to get, but I do think they mail me a check and I'm expected to use the money for the items listed. So you're saying if it's things used for daycare only I can deduct that 100% as both an income and an expense? Then something like a computer I would deduct a percentage? How do I determine what percentage for that?

There would be no tax implications if you used the toys 100% for your business. Otherwise, you'd apply your time-space% and some of the grant would be taxable.
