Plain-language overview
What this bill does
Endowment Accountability Act
This bill increases the excise tax on the net investment income of certain private university and college endowments. The bill also expands the number of endowments subject to the excise tax by lowering the endowment asset amount per-student threshold.
Under current law, certain private universities and colleges with 500 or more tuition-paying students (of which more than 50% are located in the United States) and endowments that are at least $500,000 per student (per-student threshold) pay an excise tax in the amount of 1.4% on the net investment income from such endowments.
The bill increases the amount of the excise tax to 10% of the net investment income from such university and college endowments and lowers the per-student threshold to $200,000.
