The board of directors has been delegated the responsibility to oversee, review and approve the federal form 990, including the preparation, review and filing process. As part of the tax return preparation process the organization hired a professional cpa firm with experience and expertise in healthcare and not-for-profit tax return preparation to prepare the federal form 990. The cpa firm's tax professionals worked closely with the organization's finance personnel including, but not limited to, the chief executive officer ("internal working group"), to obtain information needed in order to prepare a complete and accurate tax return. The cpa firm prepared a draft form 990 and furnished it to the organization's internal working group for review. The organization's internal working group reviewed the draft federal form 990 and discussed questions and comments with the cpa firm. Revisions were made to the draft where necessary and a final draft was furnished by the cpa firm to the organization's internal working group for final review and approval prior to presentation to the members of the board of directors and filing with the irs.”

This review is based on job functions and requirements of the ceo position to determine an appropriate wage or salary range. Compensation is also based on the following factors: 1. Prevailing rates for similar work in other nonprofit and commercial organizations; 2. National as well as local salary patterns; 3. Applicable legal requirements; 4. Standards established by professional organizations; and 5. The financial ability of the center to compensate the ceo. The actions taken by the board enable the organization to receive the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness for purposes of internal revenue code section 4958 with respect to the total compensation of the chief executive officer. The three factors which must be satisfied in order to receive the rebuttable presumption of reasonableness are the following: 1. The compensation arrangement is approved in advance by an "authorized body" of the applicable tax-exempt organization which is composed entirely of individuals who do not have a "conflict of interest" with respect to the compensation arrangement; 2. The authorized body obtained and relied upon "appropriate data as to comparability" prior to making its determination; and 3.
