Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“The board of directors reviews and approves the 990.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“The organization has adopted a conflict of interest policy and disclosure statement which each director will be asked to complete upon his or her election or re-election to the board annually. Each officer and senior staff member will be asked to complete such a statement upon his or her employment on an annual basis.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The compensation committee determines the salary of the organization's president. A member of the compensation committee conducts a survey of executive compensation using 990 data of comparable organizations. The committee, as a whole, then determines if an increase is merited, given the range of salaries in the industry and the performance of the president.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“Microfinance opportunities makes its financial statements and other documents available to the public on its website and upon request.”

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part IX, Line 11G

“Project subcontractors: program service expenses 485,556. Management and general expenses 7,244. Fundraising expenses 4,760. Total expenses 497,560.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Mfo has adopted financial accounting standards board interpretation no. 48, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, (fin 48), as permitted by fasb staff position (fsp) fin 48-3, which is codified as fasb asc 740. Fasb asc 740 requires changes in recognition and measurement for uncertain tax positions. Mfo has analyzed its tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to any uncertain tax positions. Mfo is not aware of any tax positions for which it believes that there is a reasonable possibility that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. If this position changes, mfo will assess the impact of any such matters on its financial position and results of operations.”
