Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

“The entity's board of managers designates the treasurer as board member to review the 990. He reviews the 990 along with the executive director of the entity's parent organization.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“All matters relating to a possible failure to the conflicts on interest policy, are dealt with discretion and confidence. Any question of whether an employee or board member has failed to comply with the standards of the policy, will be determined by the board. The agency board also determines the appropriate corrective action for said employee or board member that fail to comply.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“The executive director's compensation is reviewed and evaluated by the personnel committee and includes, but not limited to, direct input from the board of directors.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15B

“The personnel committee reviews the salary of each employee at least once annually. The board of trustees determines the budget for salaries.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public, upon request to the chair. The form 990 is also available on guidestar.”

Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“The martin luther foundation is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(a) of the internal revenue code as an organization described in section 501(c)(3). Further, the foundation has been determined not to be a private foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) of the code because it is an organization described in code section 509(a)(3). Although mlf is not subject to federal and state income taxes, the organization is required to adhere to asc 740, accounting for income taxes. Asc 740 clarifies the accounting and reporting for income taxes where interpretation of the tax law may be uncertain. Asc 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of income tax uncertainties with respect to positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Management has reviewed its current and past federal income tax positions and has determined based on clear and unambiguous tax law and regulations, that the tax positions taken are certain and that there is no likelihood that a material tax assessment would be made if the respective government agency examined tax returns subject to audit. Accordingly, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded. Currently, the december 31, 2021, 2022, and 2023, tax years are open and subject to examination by the internal revenue service. However, the organization is not currently under audit nor has the organization been contacted by this jurisdiction. Any interest and penalties related to income taxes would be recorded in income tax expense. There are no interest and penalties as of december 31, 2024 and 2023.”

FURTHER, THE FOUNDATION HAS BEEN DETERMINED NOT TO BE A PRIVATE FOUNDATION WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 509(A) OF THE CODE BECAUSE IT IS AN ORGANIZATION DESCRIBED IN CODE SECTION 509(A)(3).

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
