Gifts of securities are recorded on the institution's books at the same value available to the donor for tax deduction purposes. This is the mean value, the average between the high and low trading prices on the effective date of the gift. The effective date of the gift and its subsequent charitable deduction is the date the stock is credited to the account of the recipient institution.
