Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION:

The discovery orchestra, inc. ("tdo") is a not-for-profit corporation whose mission is teaching the listening skills that help people emotionally connect with classical music. For over 20 years, artistic director george marriner maull and the discovery orchestra have offered 'break through' classical music experiences to students, teachers and the public, from classical fans to the classical-curious, to help them 'listen better.' live programs in concert halls, schools, community centers and private homes supplement media programs on public television, radio, dvds and the internet. All programs employ the methodology of noticing musical detail to heighten enjoyment and understanding of the pieces being explored. The orchestra has transformed the listening experience for millions in the u.s. And abroad and has received three emmy nominations and ten telly awards for its five public television productions to date, distributed by american public television. Its regular public radio program, inside music, produced in partnership with wwfm the classical network, is broadcast twice monthly.

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C EXPLANATION:

There has been no change from the prior year.

FORM 990, PART V, LINE 2A EXPLANATION:

This figure includes seven regular staff members. The rest of the employees are musicians who perform occasionally throughout the season.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

Tdo is a not-for-profit corporation as described in section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and is thereby exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to section 501(a) of the code. Tdo is also exempt under title 15 of the state of new jersey corporations and associations not for profit act. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes has been presented in the accompanying financial statements. Management has stated that all required informational tax returns have been filed and registration fees have been paid. Tdo follows the provisions of fasb asc, income taxes. The standard prescribes a minimum recognition threshold and measurement methodology that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance for derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition as they relate to those positions. Tdo does not expect a significant increase or decrease to the total amounts of unrecognized tax positions during the year ended june 30, 2021. However, tdo is subject to regular audit by tax authorities including a review of its nonprofit status, which management believes would be upheld upon examination. Tdo believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued each year. As required by law, tdo files informational returns with both federal and new jersey state governments on an annual basis - form 990 with the internal revenue service, and form cri-300r with the state. Tdo is subject to examinations at any time within certain statutorily defined periods from the latest filing date for federal and for new jersey.
