Supplemental Narrative
Additional Explanations
Form 990, Part IV, Lines 12 & Part XII, Line 2B & C
“The organization's statements of financial position (balance sheet) were audited by an independent accountant. The organization's statement of activities (income statement) and cash flow were not included in the audit.”
Form 990, Part XI, Line 9
“Discount on pledges receivable $ (168,739)”
Financial Statement Notes
Schedule D, Part III, Line 4
“The foundation purchased a statue to aid in the support of the kansas city symphony orchestra in its cultural endeavors for the city of kansas city, missouri”
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4
“The foundation's endowment consists of two individual funds established for the purpose to support the symphony. The foundation has different policies (the spending policy) of appropriating for expenditures for the kauffman and general endowments. Under the kauffman endowment, 5% of the average fair market value for the prior 12 months through the year end preceding the year is contributed to the symphony. Half of this amount is to be used for the support of the music director and the other half to be used to support the symphony's educational and youth programs. Under the general endowment, income, net of the foundation expenses, is transferred quarterly to the symphony for use in operations. This is consistent with the foundation's objective to preserve principal and provide growth and current income, as well as to provide additional real growth through new gifts and investment return.”
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2
“Management has evaluated their income tax positions under the guidance included in asc 740. Based on their review, management has not identified any material uncertain tax positions to be recorded or disclosed in the financial statements.”
Schedule D, Part XII and Part XIII
“The organization received an audit of their statement of financial position (balance sheet) only. Therefore, the reconciliation of revenue and expenses per audited financial statements were not completed since the organization's audit did not encompass these statements.”

| IRS990ScheduleA/Form990ScheduleAPartIVGrp/ExplanationTxt | 0 | THE NET ASSETS OF THE KANSAS CITY SYMPHONY FOUNDATION (THE FOUNDATION) ARE MAINTAINED AS PERMANENTLY-RESTRICTED NET ASSETS. CONTRIBUTIONS ARE RECEIVED FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND BECOME PART OF AN ENDOWMENT FUND, THE NET INCOME OF WHICH IS CONTRIBUTED, OR IS AVAILABLE TO BE CONTRIBUTED, TO THE KANSAS CITY SYMPHONY. THE FOUNDATION IS ORGANIZED AND OPERATED SO AS TO ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL PUBLIC SUPPORT ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. ITS SUPPORT COMES 100% FROM EITHER CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED FROM THE PUBLIC OR FROM INCOME FROM ITS ENDOWMENT INVESTMENTS. THE FOUNDATION HAS HISTORICALLY MET THE 33-1/3% PUBLIC SUPPORT TEST. THEY HAVE DIPPED SLIGHTLY BELOW THIS THRESHOLD FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS, DUE TO A SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER PROPORTION OF THE SUPPORT COMING FROM ENDOWMENT INVESTMENT EARNINGS. HOWEVER, THE PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGES CALCULATED FOR THESE YEARS STILL FAR EXCEED THE 10% MINIMUM SUPPORT LIMITATION. PER REGULATION 1.170A-9(F)(3)(A), "IF THE PERCENTAGE OF THE ORGANIZATION'S SUPPORT FROM PUBLIC OR GOVERNMENTAL SOURCES IS LOW BECAUSE IT RECEIVES A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF ITS TOTAL SUPPORT FROM INVESTMENT INCOME ON ITS ENDOWMENT FUNDS, SUCH FACT WILL BE TREATED AS EVIDENCE OF AN ORGANIZATION BEING "PUBLICLY SUPPORTED" IF SUCH ENDOWMENT FUNDS WERE ORIGINALLY CONTRIBUTED BY A GOVERNMENTAL UNIT OR BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC." THE FOUNDATION'S ENDOWMENT INVESTMENTS HAVE BEEN FUNDED OVER THE YEARS BY CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC. PER THE REGULATION, THIS FACT IS EVIDENCE THAT THE FOUNDATION IS "PUBLICLY SUPPORTED". |
