“The corporate assistant controller completes the 990 questionnaire received from the tax accountants and assembles all supporting documentation. Then the controller reviews the questionnaires and supporting documentation. The controller will return the questionnaires to the corporate assistant controller with questions or comments. Once the questions and comments have been addressed, the questionnaires will be sent to the independent tax accountants. After the tax accountants complete the return, the cfo and controller will conduct a detail review of the return. The return is then sent to the president for review. The 990 then goes to the members of the audit committee for review and approval. The return is also sent to each board member for their review and comments prior to filing.”

Any conditions which warrant elevation to the board of directors is done so on a case-by-case basis. As of the reporting date, there has been no reportable conditions of conflict of interest.”
