“The novim group was required to have an independent audit performed on their financial statements due to a substantial testamentary bequest by alexandra j. Noble. The originally filed return is being amended to reflect the findings of the auditor. The decedent died december 21, 2015. The estate was fairly complex and the estate was not settled until early 2017. The bequest was not a pecuniary amount; it was the net of the assets in the estate less the outstanding liabilities of the estate, which was an undeterminable amount when the original return was filed. Therefore, the revenues and expenses shown on the orginally filed return were based upon the best estimates the organization had at the time. The organization filed the original return, knowing it was highly likely the return would have to be amended. The organization waited until the audit was concluded on september 15, 2017 to file this amended return. The forms and schedules that were changed due to this amendment are as follows: form 990: page 1, part i page 2, part iii page 9, part viii page 10, part ix page 11, part x page 12, part xi form 990, schedule a: page 3, part iii form 990, schedule b: page 2, part i form 990, schedule d: page 2, part vi”
