[Contribution](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#contribution "An unconditional transfer of cash or other assets, as well as unconditional promises to give, to an entity or a reduction, settlement, or cancellation of its liabilities in a voluntary nonreciprocal transfer by another entity acting other than as an owner.

In a contribution transaction, the resource provider often receives value indirectly by providing a societal benefit although that benefit is not considered to be of commensurate value.

Under many [charitable gift annuity](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#charitable-gift-annuity "A transfer of assets to a not-for-profit entity (NFP) in connection with a split-interest agreement that is in part a contribution and in part an exchange transaction. The NFP accepts the contribution and is obligated to make periodic stipulated payments to the donor or a third-party beneficiary for a specified period of time, usually either a specified number of years or until the death of the donor or third-party beneficiary.") agreements, the assets received from the donor are held by the NFP as part of its general assets and are available for its general use. The contribution portion of a charitable gift annuity agreement shall be recognized as revenue without donor restrictions if both of the following criteria are met:

1.  a
    
    The donor does not restrict the use of the assets contributed to the NFP.
    
2.  b
    
    Neither the agreement nor laws and regulations require the assets received by the NFP to be invested until the income beneficiary's death. Additional annuity reserves required by state laws, as described in paragraph [958-30-50-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/958/30/#958-30-50-2), do not create donor restrictions.
    

If either of those criteria is not met, the contribution shall be classified as [donor-restricted support](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/d/#donor-restricted-support "Donor-restricted revenues or gains from contributions that increase net assets with donor restrictions (donors include other types of contributors, including makers of certain grants).") that increases net assets with donor restrictions and shall be reclassified as net assets without donor restrictions when [donor-imposed restrictions](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/d/#donor-imposed-restriction "A donor stipulation (donors include other types of contributors, including makers of certain grants) that specifies a use for a contributed asset that is more specific than broad limits resulting from the following: The nature of the not-for-profit entity (NFP) The environment in which it operates The purposes specified in its articles of incorporation or bylaws or comparable documents for an unincorporated association. Some donors impose restrictions that are temporary in nature, for example, stipulating that resources be used after a specified date, for particular programs or services, or to acquire buildings or equipment. Other donors impose restrictions that are perpetual in nature, for example, stipulating that resources be maintained in perpetuity. Laws may extend those limits to investment returns from those resources and to other enhancements (diminishments) of those resources. Thus, those laws extend donor-imposed restrictions.") or legal requirements are satisfied.
