Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2Lane T. Dennis, M. Ebeth Dennis, Josh Dennis and Jon Dennis - Family Relationship
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bGood News Publishers' Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm and reviewed in detail and approved by the Sr. VP of Finance and Assistant Treasurer and the President. The Board of Directors and Audit Committee members are provided with a copy of Form 990 to review prior to filing with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cGood News has a conflict of interest policy in place which requires each officer and board member to sign a conflict of interest form each year. The signed statements are reviewed by the Senior Vice President of Finance. Should any potential conflicts of interest be disclosed, the board member or officer would be asked to refrain from participation in any deliberation or decision with regard to matters affected by the relationship.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15Good News utilizes industry comparable data from multiple sources to recommend salary and bonus figures for management. This information is then compiled, and recommendations for all officers, as well as a general percentage increase for all other employees, are submitted to the compensation committee. The compensation committee reviews, discusses, has the ability to change recommendations, and then approves the submission, which in turn is brought to the full board by way of recommendation of the compensation committee. The full board then takes the recommendation, has further discussion if necessary, and then approves the recommendation from the compensation committee. Compensation committee members (and any family members on the board) who are also compensated officers are excused from the part of the meeting that would cover any discussion over compensation or bonuses. The decisions regarding compensation are then documented in the minutes.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are all available upon request.
Form 990, Part X, Lines 27-29:In accordance with the principles of FASB ASU 2016-14 (ASC 958), the organization has implemented required changes to its audited financial statements for the period ended 05/31/2019. To date, Form 990 and its associated schedules have not been updated to reflect changes made by this standard. Thus, we have reported the revised net asset categories from the audited financial statements as follows on Form 990, Part X, Lines 27-29: Net assets without donor restrictions Line 27 - Unrestricted net assets $22,139,717 Net assets with donor restrictions Line 28 - Temporarily restricted net assets 96,102 Line 29 - Permanently restricted net assets 450,000 Subtotal $546,102 Total net assets $22,685,819
Form 990, Part XII, Line 2cThe organization's Board assumes responsibility for oversight of the audit of its financial statements and selection of its independent accountant. This process has not changed since the prior year.
