As a special thank you for signing up for my free newsletter "Stewardship", I am offering all four of my church accounting spreadsheets, completely free of charge.
I built my church and nonprofit accounting spreadsheets for our church secretary who was trying to keep track of all our church's finances on paper.
They made her work a little easier, so I decided to share them and see if they might help someone else.
P.S. Our church secretary has built her own site:
freechurchforms.com.
It has free church forms such as a church membership form, a counseling form, reimbursement form, etc. She also has a great membership database at a very reasonable price that will keep track of your membership information and contributions.
My free spreadsheets are just single entry fund accounting spreadsheets. See my
Basic Accounting
page. If your church or nonprofit organization can afford it, double entry software is the best for your accounting needs.
However, if you are a start up church or nonprofit or cannot afford any accounting software, my free spreadsheets may be just what you are looking for.
Regular Accounting Spreadsheet
This workbook (set of spreadsheets) consists of monthly general ledgers that automatically carry all totals to a monthly financial statement.
Then all the totals from the monthly reports automatically generate an annual report and cash flow statement.
It is set up for 5 separate
fund accounts.
It also has revenue, expense, and financing accounts set up in the general ledger.
Unless you are proficient in Excel, it is a little hard to modify. So if you want something you can modify easily you might want to consider my basic spreadsheets (see description below).
This workbook (set of spreadsheets) consists of a monthly general ledger, monthly report, and an annual report. Unlike my regular accounting spreadsheets…only the annual report is automatically generated. You will have to hand put in all the totals for the monthly reports.
The general ledger is set up like a paper ledger. It is set up for only 3 separate fund accounts and is not separated into revenue, expense, and financing accounts. The monthly report has no formulas (except for set up) and is easy to modify.
This workbook (set of spreadsheets) will help you keep your fund accounting general ledger and bank statement reconciled.
This wonderful chore should be done every month. It is my least favorite accounting chore that I do for our church. It is especially fun if your bank sends out statements on any day but the last day of the month.
So, I am not responsible for any hair pulling, crying, or strong urges to throw your computer out the window these spreadsheets may cause.
This is the one I made for our church. It is very basic, but it works for us. All you need to do is click on the "Name" cell and type in your organization's name. Then it is ready to use.
