Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part X, Line 2:The Society is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state law. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the Society's tax-exempt purposes is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The Society follows the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the Society may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Society and positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBTI). There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities during the reporting periods covered by these financial statements. The Society files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. These forms are generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2015.

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7bAll individual members, with the exception of student members, and those residing outside of North America, shall have the right to hold office in American Foundry Society and to cast one vote on all questions submitted to the membership by letter or other ballot.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bBoard resolution passed August 2009 delegates this responsibility to the Finance Committee for independent review before filing. The Form 990 is also provided to all members of the governing body before it is filed.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cAll new board members sign the conflict of interest policy at the beginning of their 3 year term.

The CEO's performance is evaluated annually by the ERCC against established goals, through a process that involves consultation with the Board of Directors and other stakeholders. The compensation level is benchmarked periodically using resources including the National Association of Manufacturers Council of Manufacturing Associations Executive Salary Survey and the Association Forum of Chicagoland Association Compensation Benefits Survey. Any changes in salary or incentive bonus payments are communicated in writing from the ERCC to the Director of Accounting & Finance.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request for the same period of disclosure as set forth in IRC Section 6104(d).
