Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 2

Mark blackman gary blackman co-director co-director mark & gary are brothers

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

The co-director's perform a detailed review of the form 990 and present it to the board for comment before filing. The board is asked to review artspower's form 990 and to provide feedback about the completness and accuracy of the information on the form, most notably the core part of the form. The board is asked to look for things that stand out, ensure that disclosures are provided where required, verify the information on the form, and make sure disclosures are clear and undestandable to someone with little or no knowledge about the organazation.

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

Any possible conflicts of interest are brought to the board's attention and discussed. If there is any sense that any business action is in conflict with the interests of an indivdal at artspower or with the organization as a whole, will vote on that action in order to document that the board recognized a conflict of interest and ceased moving forward on that action.

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

The compensation of artspower's co-directors are presented by the board president who discusses the proposed compensation with the other members of the board. The co-directors are excused from the board meeting when their compensation is considered and revewed. The board (excluding co-directors) vote to approve or disapprove the compensation levels proposed by the board president.

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

The organization does not have compensated officers besides the founding co-directors, nor does it have key employees.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

Inspection of governing documents, conflict of interest, and financial statements are available to the public upon request, at artspower's office.

FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION

The primary mission of artspower is to improve the lives of young people with compelling, literature-based, professional theatre that challenges their intellect, encourages compassion and understanding and ignites their desire to read.

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

The accounting standards on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes address the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the organization 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 organization and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (ubit)). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from a tax position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for fiscal year 2017.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ON ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES ADDRESS THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER TAX BENEFITS CLAIMED OR EXPECTED TO BE CLAIMED ON A TAX RETURN SHOULD BE RECORDED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. UNDER THAT GUIDANCE, THE ORGANIZATION 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 ORGANIZATION AND VARIOUS POSITIONS RELATED TO THE POTENTIAL SOURCES OF UNRELATED BUSINESS TAXABLE INCOME (UBIT)). THE TAX BENEFITS RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FROM A TAX POSITION ARE MEASURED BASED ON THE LARGEST BENEFIT THAT HAS A GREATER THAN 50% LIKELIHOOD OF BEING REALIZED UPON ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT. THERE WERE NO UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS IDENTIFIED OR RECORDED AS LIABILITIES FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017.
