FAQ
On the 990, investment revenue is reported in Part XVIII, and investment expenses are reported in Part IX. Investment unrealized gains/losses are reported on your financial statements. For tax purposes, the investment return is not recognized until it is realized- that is until the investment is sold.
Unrealized losses and gains have no immediate tax consequences because they are just paper profits or paper losses. Investors only have to report gains or losses when they divest capital assets, and then they must reconcile the profit or loss on Schedule D of their Form 1040 in the same tax year they sold the asset.
Part VII requires reporting of two types of compensation: 1) reportable compensation (amounts reportable on a person's Form W-2 (box 5) or Form 1099 (box 7)) and 2) other compensation.
Unrealized gain or loss on investments may be grouped with “investment income” on the financial statements. Form 990 does not take into account unrealized gain or loss in arriving at total revenue, thus it is a reconciling item on Schedule D.
Securities that are available for sale are also recorded on a company's balance sheet as an asset at fair value. However, the unrealized gains and losses are recorded in comprehensive income on the balance sheet.
Though it may appear technical and intimidating at first glance, a 990 isn't hard to navigate once you know what to look for.
Column (F) asks for the amount of “other compensation” which generally includes any compensation that is not included in box 1 or 5 of Form W-2, in box 1 of Form 1099-NEC or in box 6 of Form 1099-MISC.
The IRS must make Forms 990-T filed by charities publicly available; use Form 4506-A PDF to request copies. Copies of Forms 990-T on DVD may be purchased from the IRS. See Copies of scanned exempt organization returns available.
Many nonprofits hire tax preparers/accountants to prepare the organization's Form 990. You may be able to find a qualified accountant through your state association of nonprofits.
