There are changes in the classification of exempt revenue; specifically, the amount realized from the sale of the organization's assets was moved from "related" to "excluded." page 3 of the core 990, question 10 was changed from "yes" to "no" as the organization does not hold any endowed funds directly or through a related organization. The corresponding endowment fund schedule on page 2, part v of schedule d has also been removed since that section does not apply. Page 12 of the core 990 was also changed to reflect the organization had an independent audit of its financial statements. Schedule a was updated with the correct amount of program service revenue. Finally, schedule o has been updated for the explanation for uncertain tax positions under fin 48 to match the statement provided on the completed financial statement audit.”
