| Abstract | Results of the Council for Financial Aid to Education's 1981 survey of 789 companies providing financial support to higher education are summarized. Attention is directed to: national trends in corporate pretax net income and contributions; inflation; corporate support in relation to total voluntary support and institutional expenditures; the distribution and types of corporate contributions; foundation cash flow by industry; changes in market value of corporate foundation assets by industry; comparative ranking of educational support by industry; and total support of education in relation to worldwide pretax net income, assets, and sales. Findings include the following: respondents reported large increases in their gifts to education despite a decline in pretax net income for the manufacturing companies and only a small rise in profits for the nonmanufacturers; in most industries experiencing profit declines, corporate-sponsored foundations were able to maintain giving levels--some by using earnings on invested assets and some by drawing on assets built up in high-profit years; and foundations served as a buffer against cyclical changes in corporate profits. Problems of measuring total corporate contributions nationally are also discussed. (SW) |
