“The collections, which were acquired primarily through contributions since the society's inception, are not recognized as assets, liabilities and net assets. Purchases of collection items reduce net assets without donor restrictions in the period when purchased, or as net assets with donor restrictions if the assets used to purchase the items are restricted by donors. Contributed collection items are not reflected on the financial statements. Proceeds from deaccessions or insurance recoveries are reflected as increases in the appropriate net asset classes.”
“The society's collections are made up of artifacts of historical significance, scientific specimens, and curatorial purposes. Each of the items is catalogued, preserved, and cared for, and activities verifying their existence and assessing their condition are performed continuously. The collections are subject to a policy that requires proceeds from their sale to be used to acquire other items for collections.”
“Management has determined that the society has no uncertain income tax positions that would require financial statement disclosure. The society files income tax returns in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and the state of illinois and is no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2018.”
