Bus/Financial - Accounting | | French term or phrase: Au débit des comptes 86 | Au débit des comptes 86 sont enregistrés les emplois selon leur nature (secours en nature, mise à disposition gratuite de locaux, personnel bénévole…).
Au crédit des comptes 87, les contributions volontaires sont enregistrées par catégorie (bénévolat, prestations en nature, dons en nature consommés en l’état).
Can someone please explain the meaning of the numbers 86 and 87 in this sentence? They come up on Google fairly frequently but can't work out what the numbers relate to. Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks, |

It seems to be the specific accounting treatment applicable to Associations and Foundations. At this link, if you scroll down to "classe 8", there is some discussion of 86 and 87. Hope this helps.http://desette.free.fr/asso1901/171298.htm |
