7. Who Keeps the Books?
Indicate the person to be contacted if the
organization's books need to be accessed for
information or review. Either a business or
personal phone number and mailing address are
acceptable.
8. Officers, Directors,
Trustees, and Other Key
Employees
List each person who was an officer, director,
trustee, or key employee (defined below) of the
organization at any time during the year even if
they are a volunteer and do not receive any
compensation from the organization. Give the
daytime phone number and preferred mailing
address at which officers, etc., want the
Charitable Activities Section to contact them.
Use an attachment if there are more persons to
list than there are lines available.
A failure to fully complete this part can subject
the organization to penalties for filing an
incomplete Form.
If the organization is an Oregon public benefit
corporation, it must have a minimum of three
individuals serving on its board of directors.
A "key employee" is any person having
responsibilities or powers similar to those of
officers, directors, or trustees. The term includes
the chief management and administrative
officials of an organization (such as executive
director) but does not include the heads of
separate departments or smaller units within an
organization.
A chief financial officer and the officer in charge
of administration or program operations are both
key employees if they have the authority to
control the organization's activities, it's finances,
or both. The "heads of separate departments"
reference applies to persons such as the head of
the radiology department or coronary care unit
of a hospital or the head of the chemistry or
history or English department at a college. These
persons are managers within their specific areas
but not for the organization as a whole and,
therefore, are not key employees.
Column (C)
If an IRS form is attached that includes complete
and accurate compensation information the
phrase “See IRS Form” may be entered in lieu of
completing this section.
Otherwise, for each person listed, report the total
amount of compensation paid or deferred for
payment to a later date, including salary, fees,
bonuses, benefits, taxable allowances or
reimbursements, the value of noncash
compensation, and severance payments.
Enter a zero in column (C) if the person was a
volunteer and was not paid or did not accrue any
compensation during the reporting year.
The organization may provide an attachment to
explain the entire compensation package for any
person listed in this part, including whether the
compensation includes the payment of amounts
previously deferred.
Section II.
9. Total Revenue
The Charitable Activities Section has adopted
the definition for “Total Revenue” used by the
Internal Revenue Service. If the organization
completed one of the following IRS Forms for
this reporting period, the Total Revenue figure
should come from the line number listed:
• IRS Form 990, Part I, line 12 (current
year)
• IRS Form 990-EZ, Part I, line 9
• IRS Form 990-PF, Part I, line 12a
• IRS Form 1041, line 9
If the organization was not required to complete
one of these IRS Forms, or filed an IRS Form
990-N, a summary of what constitutes Total
Revenue is provided within these instructions. A
more detailed definition can be found in the IRS
instructions for the forms listed above.
“Total Revenue” includes such items as:
• contributions
• gifts
• grants
• donated real property
• donated thrift items
• membership dues & assessments
• program service revenue
• government fees & contracts
• interest income
• dividend income
• net rental gain or loss as determined by
gross rental income less rental expense
• other investment income
• gain or loss on sales of assets other than
inventory as calculated by gross sale
price less cost or other basis
• gain or loss from special events &
activities which may include bingo
games, raffle events, Monte Carlo events,
dinners, and door-to-door sales of
merchandise as calculated by gross
proceeds minus direct expenses
• gain or loss on sale of inventory as
calculated by sales price less returns &
allowances and the cost of goods sold
• all other sources of revenue.
• include amounts obtained from both
Oregon and out of state sources.
To report contributions received in a form other
than cash, use the market value as of the date of
the contribution. When market value cannot be
readily determined, use an appraised or
estimated value.
To determine the amount of any noncash
contribution that is subject to an outstanding
debt, subtract the debt from the property’s fair
market value in assigning a value to the revenue
received.
“Fair market value” is the amount a reasonable
person would pay for the item at the time it was
donated to the organization.
Important Note—Do not include the value of
services donated to the organization, or items
such as the free use of materials, equipment, or
facilities in reporting Total Revenue.
Important Note—If Total Revenue is zero,
attach an explanation of why Total Revenue is
zero and indicate whether the organization plans
to continue operations. See the instructions for
line 6 if this is the organization’s final report.
10. Revenue Fee
Use the Total Revenue figure from line 9 to
calculate the revenue fee according to the
following schedule.
Revenue Fee Schedule
The maximum amount subject to a revenue fee is
$1,000,000. The maximum revenue fee is $400.
The minimum revenue fee is $20, even if total
revenue is zero or a negative amount.
11. Net Assets or Fund
Balances at the End of the
Reporting Period
The Charitable Activities Section has adopted
the definitions for “Net Assets” and “Fund
Balances” used by the Internal Revenue Service.
If the organization completed one of the
following IRS forms for this reporting period,
the Net Assets or Fund Balances figure should
come from the line number listed:
• IRS Form 990, Part I, line 22 (end of
year)
• IRS Form 990-EZ, Part I, line 21
• IRS Form 990-PF, Part III, line 6,
If the organization was not required to complete
one of these IRS forms, or filed an IRS Form
900-N, a summary of what constitutes Net
Assets or Fund Balances is provided within these
instructions. A more detailed definition can be
found in the IRS instructions for the forms listed
above.
Net Assets and Fund Balances refer to the
organization’s assets minus liabilities.
“Assets” are items of value to the organization,
such as cash, receivables less any allowance for
doubtful accounts, inventory, prepaid expenses,
investments, land, buildings & equipment less
any accumulated depreciation if the organization
records depreciation.
