There is a stewardship report form that specifies the information that should be included in each report. These reports are reviewed by the Stewardship Committee of the Board of Directors Part II, Line 9 Part II, Line 9: Organization Reporting of conservation easements. The land trust reports the costs connected with the acquisition of easements as operating expenses of the current period. Because the land trust does not believe that conservation easements meet the definition of an asset as defined in Concept Statement No 6 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), the easements are recorded at a nominal value of $1.00. These easements may be acquired through a donation or by purchase. If acquired by donation, the easement is recorded at the nominal value of $1.00 and no contribution revenue is recorded. If acquired by purchase, the difference between the $1.00 nominal value and the purchase price is recorded as a program (land protection) expense.
