About

DURING THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019, LONGWOOD CEMETERY, LLC WAS FORMED (WITH LONGWOOD GARDENS, INC. AS THE SOLE MEMBER) TO ACCEPT THE ASSETS OF LONGWOOD CEMETERY. THOSE ASSETS CONSISTED OF THE CEMETERY GROUNDS, MINOR EQUIPMENT, A BUILDING AND A MODEST CASH ACCOUNT. THE TRANSFER OF THE ASSETS WAS RECORDED AS A CONTRIBUTION WITH DONOR RESTRICTIONS SINCE THEY MUST BE USED FOR CEMETERY PURPOSES. THE PROPERTY WAS VALUED AT $806,891 BASED ON A PROPERTY TAX APPRAISAL AT THE TIME OF THE TRANSFER. THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE PRESENTED ON A COMBINED BASIS SINCE THE TWO ENTITIES ARE UNDER COMMON CONTROL.
