Write-off(s), written off/derecognized Explanation: Based on the poor English provided, that above is my best guess. Assuming these are pledged contributions that were not collected, but for which revenue was recognized when the pledge was made. The technical term for that in accounting is derecognition/derecognize. But write-off and written off would also work. So, write-off(s) as the noun, written off or written down as the past part. of the verb (off if nothing was collected; down if a partial contribution was collected). Or you can say the contributions should be/have been derecognized. Also now assume these are corporate members of a Konzern or Gruppe of some kind, not individuals in a Verein or the like. Not that it changes the terminology for Abschreibung. |

membership fee tax deductions Explanation: As far as I can tell, this has to do with the financials of an organisation. The membership fees that they get should not form part of their taxable revenue. https://www.linguee.com/english-german/search?source=auto&query=Mitgliedsbeitr%C3%A4ge |
