Legacy : Legacy represents the amount or property received by organization under a will on death of the contributors. In other words we can say that ligacies are the donations made by a person in his will, so their donation are called legacy.
(i) Legacies received for a specific purpose must be capitalized in the name of concerned fund for which it is received.
(ii) Legacies received not for any sprcific fund/general may be added to the capital fund.
Example :
Mr. Shyam lal writes his will that his property will be transferred (after his death) to a Not-for-profit Organization. After death of Mr. Shyam lal, his property will be treated as capital receipt by concerned Not-for-profit Organization under the head legacy.
