“Part VI Section A Line 3 - The organization used Insperity, a third-party employee leasing company, but all significant decisions remained under the control of the organizations officers and directors. Amounts paid to Insperity for the organizations staff are reported in aggregate in Part VII B, and to the extent attributable to particular employees it is also reported in Part VII A.”
“The organization did not have any committees.”
“The form 990 is reviewed by the President of the organization in consultation with accounting and legal professionals as appropriate. Thereafter, a penultimate draft and then a final copy is circulated to all of the members of the organizations governing body prior to filing.”
“The organization asks board members and officers annually to disclose interests that may give rise to potential conflicts of interest under the Conflicts of Interest Policy. It does so in conjuntion with asking for information about arrangements that may need to be disclosed on the form 990.”
“The board periodically reviews compensation at comparable organizations to determine appropriate general compensation levels for the President. For other employees, the President reviews compensation for similar work at peer institutions to determine compensation levels. The President reviews and approves all staff compensation.”
“The organization does not provide copies of its governing documents, conflict of interest policy or financial statements to the public. However, financial statements are provided to certain states where required for solicitation registration purposes.”
“Part VII Section A - As noted previously, the organizations staff were employed by a third party employee leasing company rather than being employed directly by the organization. However, per the instructions, as the common law employer of these employees, the organization has reported their compensation in Part VII as if it employed them directly. Amounts reported incolumns (D) and (F) represent the organizations third party staffing companys estimates of the amount of its charge to the organization allocable to employee compensation and employee benefits, respectively. That charge may not correspond to amounts actually paid to the individuals by the employment company.”
“Part V line 2 a - The organization contracted with a third-party corporation to provide staffing services, and that third-party corporation was the employer who handled payroll taxes and provided W-2s to staff members. The number of employees reported here is the number of staff members provided by the third-party corporation.”
“The organization sold various information technology equipment reported on Part VIII which were reported as an expense on the financial audit.”
“The organization sold various information technology equipment reported on Part VIII which were reported as an expense on the financial audit.”
“Part X line 2 - The organization has adopted FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. That standard prescribes a comprehensive model for how an organization should measure, recognize, present and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that an organization has taken or expects to take on a tax return.”
