“The form 990 is initially reviewed by the wisys controller and the wisys executive director, an electronic copy of the final version of the form 990 is subsequently provided to the board of trustees for review prior to filing.”
“Wisys executive director requires that the trustees review the conflict of interest policy and update a conflict of interest questionnaire annually. Wisys reviews conflict matters as disclosed through the annual disclosure and on a rolling basis and considers them in the matter proscribed in its conflict policy. A conflict of interest committee also meets as appropriate to consider conflict situations. All wisys employees sign a conflict of interest agreement. The wisys executive director, the hr department and the legal council review any conflicts.”
“A) the organization retains an independent human resources consulting firm specializing in compensation activities to review compensation for the executive director. The consultant works with human resources, but reports to the board president. B) every three years, most often in april, the consultant provides comparative compensation data to the board president. C) the board president reviews a written summary of executive accomplishments for the fiscal year by july 31. This information may be shared with the board. D) the board president reviews the executive evaluation, executive director's performance and determines the compensation adjustment. Any increase is effective july 1. E) the outside consultant provides a letter to the board president describing the consultant's role in establishing the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness standard under the intermediate sanctions regulations and how the consultant provided the analysis to determine the reasonableness of the executive compensation package.”
“These documents are not made available.”
“Wisys technology foundation created a finance audit and accounting committee of the board of trustees to oversee the annual audit and review accounting practices of the company. The committee selects the auditors and meets with them annually to discuss the audit and financial position.”
“The foundation is exempt from federal income tax as an organization described in section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. The foundation is also exempt from state income tax. The foundation follows guidance relative to the uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the foundation may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the foundation, and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (ubit). Any tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.”
“Net assets released from restrictions 1,000,000.”
