PRIOR YEAR RETURNS WERE PREPARED ON A CONSOLIDATED BASIS, COMBINING THE FINANCIALS FOR BOTH BONTON ENTERPRISES AND ITS RELATED TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION, CITYBUILD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. CITYBUILD IS ITS OWN NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION AND FILES ITS OWN FORM 990 AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSOLIDATED WITH BONTON ENTERPRISES' TAX RETURN. AS SUCH, THE PRIOR YEAR RETURNS AS ORIGINALLY PREPARED REPORTED OVERSTATED REVENUES, EXPENSES, ASSETS, LIABILITIES, AND NET ASSETS FOR BONTON ENTERPRISES. THE AMENDED RETURN CORRECTS THIS BY BACKING OUT CITYBUILD'S FINANCIALS AND REPORTING ITEMS THAT HAD BEEN ELIMINATED IN THE CONSOLIDATION. 2. SCHEDULE A HAD ORIGINALLY BEEN PREPARED USING PART III WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PREPARED USING PART II BASED ON THE ORGANIZATION'S IRS DETERMINATION LETTER. THE AMENDED RETURN SHOWS PART II COMPLETED. 3. SCHEDULES I AND R WERE NOT REPORTED ON THE PRIOR RETURN BUT HAVE BEEN CORRECTLY COMPLETED ON THE AMENDED RETURN. 4. THE FIN48 STATEMENT FROM THE AUDIT REPORT WAS NOT INCLUDED ON THE ORIGINALLY FILED RETURN BUT HAS BEEN INCLUDED ON SCHEDULE D OF THE AMENDED RETURN. 5.
