eager to use the results of modern science and technology in
bringing food, health, education, housing, and work to their
people, and we believe that by building partnerships between
industrial and developing nations this can be accomplished.
Although the program is science-based, it also emphasizes
other factors—local culture and values, equitable policymaking,
competent management, and production capability—that can
determine whether science and technology effectively contrib-
ute to the well-being of people in the developing world. As a
result, we encourage work that connects the products of research
with adopting strategies that are both effective and equitable.
This program provides the focus for three of our divisions:
agricultural sciences, health sciences, and population sciences.

Bananas, the principal starchy crop of
Uganda, supply 17 percent of that country's
food and are a major source of income for
many peasant farmers. But yields have been

Preserving Tropical Forests

Although the preservation of forests is vital
to economic growth in the developing world,
forest resources are increasingly squandered
and destroyed. Billions of people depend on
forest products for construction, cooking,
and heating, yet widespread policies that
profoundly affect local groups are often made
without a sense of local context.

Science-Based Development: Population The population
sciences division seeks to enhance reproductive choice in the
developing world by supporting work to develop new contracep-
tive technologies, increase the availability of existing tech-
nologies, and identify the constraints, risks, and barriers that
affect contraceptive use. The division also supports selected
developing countries in strengthening the professional compe-
tence needed to establish population policies and effective
management of family planning programs.

Joint Programs in Health and
Population
Although AIDS is a global disease, transmis-

sion patterns may differ from country to
country, and approaches to prevention and
control must be geared to local circum-
stances. However, many AIDS-afflicted coun-
tries do not have sufficient resources—money
or trained professionals and workers—to do
the epidemiological and behavioral research
so urgently needed to design these strategies,
To help meet this need, the Foundation's
divisions of health sciences and population
sciences are jointly funding a variety of
initiatives that are enabling scientists from
developed and developing countries to work
together on aspects of the AIDS problem that
have not received the attention required.
AIDS and reproductive health is the focus
of an international network of scientists
organized, with assistance from the Foun-
dation and other donors, by Harvard Uni-
versity's Department of International Health.

Science-Based Development: Special Programming and
Fellowships Special programming supports a small number of
projects in science-based development that cross the traditional
boundaries of the agriculture, health, and population divisions.
The Foundation also supports a series of fellowship programs
in science-based development: advanced training fellowships,
social science research fellowships, biotechnology career
fellowships, and an African dissertation internship program.

Adding a Community Development
Dimension
Community Development Corporations
(CDCs), which arose in the 1960s and now
number about 1,000 throughout the United
States, work from within poor neighborhoods
and are directed by local residents, business
people, and other community leaders. They
undertake projects such as constructing and
renovating apartments and houses, starting
up businesses, and creating jobs. They build
leaders, capital, and power in communities
marked by a loss of all three.
At the close of the year, the Foundation's
trustees approved a new initiative to support
community development activities. The pro-
gram will operate through national interme-

this period was 15.1 percent.
The graph also shows returns adjusted for inflation and returns adjusted for inflation plus
5 percent. The inflation plus 5 percent benchmark represents the minimum return that would
permit the Foundation to make the minimum payout under current law and still maintain the
value of remaining assets in real dollar terms. As the graph indicates, returns have exceeded
the inflation plus 5 percent benchmark over this 10-year period.

managed internally. Northern Trust is custodian for domestic assets.
Spending
Spending in 1988 totaled $73.7 million, down 14 percent from the $85.7 million spent in 1987.
The graph below places 1988 spending into 10-year historical perspective. Spending in nominal
dollars had been relatively flat for the first seven years of this period. In real dollar terms, the
sharp jump in the past three years has regained the ground lost during the late 1970s and
early 1980s.

1988-87 Financial Statements
Report of Independent Public Accountants

The Board of Trustees
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets, obligations and principal fund of the
Rockefeller Foundation at December 31,1988 and 1987, and the related statements of operations
and changes in principal fund and changes in financial position for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Rockefeller Foundation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examin-
ing, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Rockefeller Foundation at December 31,1988 and 1987,
and the results of operations, changes in principal fund and changes in financial position for
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements
(December 31,1988 and 1987)
1. Investments
Marketable securities are reported on the basis of quoted market value, and investment income and
expenses are reported on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses are calculated based on the specific
identification method for both financial statement and tax return purposes. Limited partnership inter-
ests are recorded at appraised value, when available; and when not available, are recorded at cost and
adjusted for the Foundation's share of the limited partnership income or loss.

Futures versus the S&P 500 on December 31,1988 and December 31,1987, respectively.
2. Federal excise tax

The Foundation qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue
Code and, accordingly, is not subject to federal income tax. However, the Foundation is classified as a
private foundation and is subject to a federal excise tax of 2% on investment income less investment
expenses, and on net realized taxable gains on security transactions. In accordance with Section 4940( e)
of the Internal Revenue Code, during the years ended December 31,1988 and 1987, the Foundation has
met the specified distribution requirements and is subject to a federal excise tax of 1% in place of the
2% tax.
Deferred federal excise tax arises from timing differences between financial and tax reporting relating
to investment income and the difference between the cost basis and market value of marketable securities.
3. Property
Expenditures for capital items are included in the property account and depreciated on a straight-line
basis over the lives of the respective assets or amortized over the term of the lease.The net change in the
property account in 1988 was caused by additions of $235,481 and a decrease of $700,609 attributable
to depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization totalled $568,626 in 1987.

4. Pension, Post-retirement Health Care and Trusteed Savings Plans
The Foundation maintains a non-contributory pension plan for regular salaried employees who are
at least 21 years old and have completed one year of service or have attained the age of 40. The plan
provides retirement benefits based on years of service and final-average pay, with benefits after retire-
ment subject to increase under a cost-of-living augmentation formula. Plan assets are invested in a
diversified portfolio of common stocks and fixed-income securities. Effective January 1,1987, the
Foundation adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87, "Employers' Accounting
for Pensions" issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
The plan's funded status and the amounts recognized in the Foundation's statement of financial
position at December 31,1988 and 1987 are as follows:
1988 1987
Accumulated benefit obligation, including vested benefits
of $26,366,000 in 1988 and 125,417,000 in 1987 S 26,628,000 $ 25,645,000
Plan assets at fair value 8 46,372,000 $ 40,633,000

Portion amortized (at 12.5 years) 881,000 881,000
Balance unrecognized at end of year (9,246,000) (10,127,000)
Prepaid pension cost included in Other Assets 8 3,083,000 $ 1,592,000
Program and administrative costs incurred in 1988 and 1987 were reduced by a net pension credit
consisting of the following components:
1988 1987
Projected return on plan assets ($7,135,000actual
earnings, less $3,540,000 of investment return overrunn
in 1988; $279,000 actual earnings, plus $3,399,000

Amortization of unrecognized net asset 881,000 881,000
Less: Service cost (498,000) (535,000)
Less: Interest cost on projected benefit obligation (2,487,000) (2,432,000)
Pension cost credit 8 1,491,000 $ 1,592,000

The projected benefit obligation for the plan was determined using an assumed discount rate of 9% and
an assumed long-term compensation increase rate of 6%. The assumed long-term rate of return on plan
assets was 9%.
The Foundation also maintains a Trusteed Savings Plan for regular salaried employees under which
Foundation contributions are made to equal employee contributions of up to 5% of pay. The combined
contributions are credited to the employees' accounts. These accounts are invested and at termination
of employment, the employee receives the account balance. The Foundation's contributions to this plan
were $205,880 for 1988 and $175,630 for 1.987.
The Foundation provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. The
cost of providing these benefits is recognized by expensing the related annual insurance premiums.
5. Appropriations and expenditures

Appropriations by the trustees are considered to be obligations when grants are approved for specific
grantees; appropriations not released for specific grantees and the appropriation for the budget for
the next year are considered as appropriated principal fund. Administrative costs are charged to
operations when incurred.
Appropriations and expenditures for the year are summarized as follows:
Appropriated for Appropriated for

specific grantees/ allocation and next Total

6. Long-term leases
At December 31,1988, base rental commitments under non-cancellable leases for headquarters
office space aggregate approximately $3,810,000 and are payable at approximately $720,000 annually
until 1994. Under the leases, the Foundation is required to pay additional amounts for maintenance,
electricity and taxes. The Foundation has subleased portions of its space under two separate sublease
agreements. Net rental income under the first sublease will be approximately $630,000 and under
the second approximately $260,000 during the remaining period of the leases. Rental expense
included in the statement of operations was approximately $1,076,000 in 1988 and $1,027,000 in 1987.

premise ol this prog ^

developing nations can be advanced with the help of science

eager to use the results of modern science and technology in

bringing food, health, education, housing, and work to their

people, and we believe that by building partnerships between

industrial and developing nations this can be accomplished.

Although the program is science-based, it also emphasizes

other factors—local culture and values, equitable policymaking,

competent management, and production capability—that can

determine whether science and technology effectively contrib-

ute to the well-being of people in the developing world. As a

result, we encourage work that connects the products of research

with adopting strategies that are both effective and equitable.

This program provides the focus for three of our divisions:

agricultural sciences, health sciences, and population sciences.

sciences division supports work: using biotechnology to improve

crops that are developing-country staples, improving family

food production systems in Africa, and enhancing international

collaboration in agricultural research.
