“The Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm. The Form 990 is reviewed by management in detail and is provided to every member of the governing body prior to filing with the IRS.”
“Board members and officers sign annual conflict of interest statements which are reviewed by the Chairman of the Board and CEO/President. Should any potential conflicts of interest be disclosed, the board member or officer would be asked to refrain from participation in any deliberation or decision with regard to matters affected by the relationship.”
“The board of directors, composed of independent persons, reviews the compensation package of the CEO/President and CFO using market comparability data for similar organizations. The independent board votes on the proposed compensation packages as part of the annual budget process. This process is documented in the corporate minutes and was last completed during the fiscal year.”
“See narrative for Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a”
“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
“Compensation reported in Part VII, column D is the amount reported on the individual's W-2, box 1 or 5 (whichever amount is greater) per the IRS instructions. In the case of minister's compensation when box 5 of the W-2 is not applicable, box 1 compensation is used. Employee deferrals to qualified retirement plans are normally captured in box 5, not box 1 of Form W-2. For reporting purposes we have included the employee's retirement plan deferrals in Part VII, column F.”
