Separate accounting of funds is kept for each participant. Each participant has their own account. The accounts are titled in a way that shows the beneficiary owns the account and the organization, the payee, has only a fiduciary interest. Aspire, Inc. receives payment from participants for room and board, co-pays, and protective payee fee charges from those accounts through an ACH. Based on separate bank accounts being maintained for each person, Aspire has chosen not to report the balances on Schedule D. Part X, Line 2: Management believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken affecting its annual filing requirements and, as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The Organization would recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and liabilities in income tax expense if such interest and penalties are incurred. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1a The Executive Committee consists of the officers of the Aspire Board and the executive director. This committee will meet as necessary to prepare issues to be presented to the full Board and/or to make emergency decisions on behalf of the Board when it is not possible to assemble a quorum of the Board. This committee will have no power other than emergency action or other powers as may be delegated to it by the full Aspire Board from time to time. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b A draft copy of Form 990 was provided to all board members for their review prior to filing with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Potential conflicts of interest may arise due to a board member having a product or service which could be purchased by the Organization or when a board member has a family member receiving support from the Organization. When a potential conflict of interests arises, all facts must be presented. The board member must abstain from voting. The minutes of the meeting reflect the abstention from voting for any board member who identifies a conflict of interest. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 The process for determining compensation: The compensation process for top officials is determined and approved by the board of directors. Studies are conducted to determine comparative salaries for similar organizations around the state, and these studies are used to determine compensation levels. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are made available upon request and approval by the Executive Director.
