PRICE WATERHOUSE as FEC employer text: $7.0 million

The other half of a merger, still stored separately

COOPERS & LYBRAND and PRICE WATERHOUSE both survive as FEC employer keys. LobbyVault does not merge them because filers still type each string. The $6,975,521 total is itemized individual gifts whose employer field grouped to PRICE WATERHOUSE. It is not PwC’s current PAC and not a combined Coopers-plus-Price Waterhouse recode.

People who typed PWC, PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS, COOPERS & LYBRAND, DELOITTE, or ACCOUNTANT without a firm sit in other rows. LobbyVault does not recode merger history into one Big Four key.

PRICE WATERHOUSE as two words is the stored key. Hyphenated or concatenated successor spellings are other keys if present. LobbyVault does not apply corporate-history logic to employer text.

608 donors and 17,105 receipts

608 unique donors produced 17,105 PRICE WATERHOUSE contribution lines totaling $6,975,521. That is on the order of 28 itemized receipts per donor. COOPERS & LYBRAND remains a sibling legacy-name key with its own page. The packet does not publish a mean gift or an active-versus-retired split.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and committee PAC filings in a successor firm’s name are outside the $6,975,521 unless the individual receipt itself lists PRICE WATERHOUSE. Unitemized gifts never appear.

608 unique donors produced 17,105 lines totaling $6,975,521. That is the entire factual payload for this string. Cycle splits and office splits are not on the industry headline.

Deloitte, KPMG, and credential rows

DELOITTE, DELOITTE TOUCHE, KPMG LLP, ERNST & YOUNG, and ACCOUNTANT are separate strings. Combining them with PRICE WATERHOUSE would mix distinct FEC fields. This page reports $6,975,521 for PRICE WATERHOUSE only.

Occupation pages show titles stored beside the firm. CPA and ACCOUNTANT also exist as industry keys when donors put the credential in the employer box.

Donor table

The PRICE WATERHOUSE donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach an audit client, an SEC matter, or a motive to that line. Alumni who still type the pre-merger name share the string with anyone whose receipt carried the same letters. The FEC field is not a partnership directory.

Repeat names are expected among 17,105 lines from 608 people. Follow committees on the table for party and office. This page does not assign a partisan percentage to the legacy firm string.

PRICE WATERHOUSE rows on the donor table are not a PwC current-staff list. Alumni and anyone who copied old letterhead share the $6,975,521 grouping with 608 unique donors. If a receipt later said COOPERS & LYBRAND, that line belongs on the Coopers page. This table stays on PRICE WATERHOUSE only.

Do not add Coopers to reach a PwC number

PRICE WATERHOUSE’s $6,975,521 from 608 donors and 17,105 lines is the pre-merger spelling as stored. COOPERS & LYBRAND is a sibling legacy key with its own overlay. Adding the two without documenting a recode would mix FEC fields. PWC and PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS, if stored, are still other strings.

DELOITTE, DELOITTE TOUCHE, KPMG LLP, ERNST & YOUNG, ACCOUNTANT, and CPA stay outside this total. Successor committee PAC filings and unitemized gifts stay out unless an individual receipt lists PRICE WATERHOUSE.

Read the donor table for disclosed recipients. LobbyVault does not attach an audit client to a large gift. Alumni who still type PRICE WATERHOUSE remain in the 608. Source: FEC.gov via LobbyVault, not a NAICS accounting total.

Questions

How much have PRICE WATERHOUSE-listed donors given federally?

LobbyVault attributes $6,975,521 to the PRICE WATERHOUSE employer string, from 17,105 contributions and 608 donors. These are itemized individual receipts, not a successor firm’s PAC and not a NAICS accounting total. Unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted. Figures on this answer are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.

Is this PricewaterhouseCoopers corporate political spending?

No. The $6,975,521 total is individual contributions whose employer text grouped to PRICE WATERHOUSE. Successor legal names, corporate treasury, and committee PAC filings are other FEC categories. LobbyVault does not fold those documents into this industry row. Figures are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.

Does this include Coopers & Lybrand or Deloitte employees?

No. COOPERS & LYBRAND and DELOITTE are separate employer strings with their own pages. A receipt counted here carries the grouped text PRICE WATERHOUSE. Staff who typed only ACCOUNTANT or CPA are in those title rows instead. Figures on this answer are limited to that FEC employer string as indexed on LobbyVault.

How many unique donors listed PRICE WATERHOUSE?

The rollup counts 608 donors and 17,105 contribution lines. Repeat gifts raise the receipt count. This is not an alumni headcount from a successor firm. Figures are limited to the FEC string as indexed on LobbyVault; unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted.
