Message: [QUOTE="nzm136, post: 1230722, member: 2531"] Yeah, I know what you're talkign about it, and I read parts of it. However, if the DoE has it as a line item (which I'm going by memory, so they might not, but I'm pretty sure they do), then our internal accounting is irrelevant as that element of the final number gets standardized with the scholarships included. Presumably they would be smart enough to not add those expenses twice at the other schools who don't take the scholarship numbers out (if in fact we do for DoE purposes, which is a big if). It's not unusual for organizations to have two sets of books. In fact, the vast majority (i.e. almost every) businesses do - internal and financial. I'm not sure if that's standard practice when schools respond to the DoE, like it would be for a publicly traded company responding to the SEC. [/QUOTE]
