Financial Statement Notes

Pt III, Line 4

“The society follows the financial accounting standards board fasb asc 958-310-50, collection items acquired either through purchase or donations are not capitalized. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in unrestricted net assets if purchased with unrestricted funds and as decreases in temporarily restricted net assets if purchased with donor-restricted funds. Contributions of collection items are not recorded in the statements of activities. There were no purchases or donations of museum collection items for either of the years ended december 31, 2016 and 2015. The collection contains historically significant original letters and legal documents that are considered priceless and are maintained in a vault and bound in a light protected environment.”

Pt V, Line 4

“The Society's investment policy intends for the Society to invest in assets that would produce results exceeding the investment's purchase price and incur a significant yield of return, while assuming a moderate level of investment risk. The Society expects its Investment Fund, over time, to provide a reasonable rate of return. To satisfy the long-term rate-of-return objective, the Society relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Society targets a diversified asset allocation that places a greater emphasis on marketable equity and debt securities and money-market accounts to achieve its long-term return objectives within prudent risk constraints.”
