PART III - LINE 1AConsistent with the policies of many other Museums, the value of the Museums collections is not reflected in the statement of financial position. Purchases of items are expensed in the year that the items are acquired. Contributed collection items are not reflected in the financial statements. Proceeds from de-accessions or insurance recoveries are used to acquire other items for collection. Contributions for the purchase of items for the collection are classified as temporarily restricted net assets until acquisitions are made. The cost of these items is reported as a separate program expense. PART III - LINE 4 The Collections are inextricably linked with the Museums Educational purposes. Collections and education at the Museum are dynamically interdependent. The collection furthers the Museums mission "to provide first cultural experiences for children and families that inspire curiosity, creativity, and lifelong love of learning" in the following ways: 1) The collection is heavily drawn on for exhibitions; 2) educators create and deliver daily science and cultural education programs around collections artifacts; 3) the Museum on the Go program enables teachers to bring Museum experiences into the classroom.
PART V - LINE 4The Museum's endowment consists of various individual funds established for a variety of purposes used in the furtherance of the Museum's tax exempt activities. Its endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the board of trustees. Temporarily restricted net assets consist of contributions that are restricted by the donor for a specific purpose or pertain to future periods. Included in temporarily restricted net assets is the capital expansion fund, which was used for creating new programs, exhibitions and visitors amenities for an expanded physical plant. The balance of the Capital Expansion Fund is being released to offset depreciation of these new exhibits. Permanently restricted net assets consist of contributions that are restricted by the donor in that the principal must remain in perpetuity but the investment income earned on such funds may be spent in accordance with the donor's terms.
