    Asking for a friend... What is best practice regarding stock gifts - should the mean value of the shares be recorded as the gift or the actual dollar amount that comes to the organization? I believe I know the correct answer, I just need back-up.

    Hi, John! I might be looking at the wrong white paper, but I am hoping you can point me in the right direction for best practices in regards to when a stock gift value comes in lower than a pledge amount it was intended to pay off. If it is significantly different, should the org follow up with the donor and request the difference? Thanks!

    When I was at Duke we would consider the pledge paid if 99%+ was received.  But otherwise you send a reminder for the balance!

    Just to clarify, and as I discuss in my paper, all values are in reference to the gift value - which should closely approximate the legal value (the average between the high and low on the legal date of gift).  That is the amount used to "satisfy" the pledge.  What you seel the stock for has no impact on that value or it's relation to the pledge.
