DescProgramming and Broadcast Delivery:1. APT leases the majority of its content for television from the Public Broadcast System (PBS) and is a member affiliate of this distributor. APT also leases a smaller amount of its content needs from various other distributors. The AETFA assists directly with purchasing a portion of these costs which approaches $2.19 million annually. 2. APT leases the majority of its content for its FM-public radio station (WLRH) located in Huntsville from National Public Radio (NPR) and several other distributors. The AETFA assists directly with purchasing a portion of these costs which approaches $190,000 annually. 3. The engineering, utility, technical and equipment costs of broadcasting television signals over the entire state on a 24 hour-7 day basis well approaches $2.69 million annually including that of WLRH-FM. The AETFA assists with paying for these expenses by purchasing needed equipment and paying vendor invoices directly when the state appropriation has been exhausted for the year. 4. APT's association and membership in nationally recognized content distributors such as PBS and NPR provide viewers and listeners in the state with quality, commercial free television and radio that they depend on as a trusted source for educational content value and entertainment integrity.Desc

Part V, Line 4:The earnings from restricted endowment funds are intended to be used to directly support the programmatic services of APT including purchasing equipment needed for local production efforts but not for administrative or overhead expenses. Some of the endowment funds are restricted by the donor to be used for specific programmatic purposes and these restrictions are documented and adhered to. The AETFA has also established quasi endowments for investing and spending sizable donations that come to the AETFA as unrestricted. The intention is for the earnings to be spent directly for the programmatic services of APT. The principle can only be spent upon the recommendation of the Executive Director for a specific purpose and approved by majority vote of the Board. The AETFA adopted an investment and spending policy in 2002 for its endowments in which an investment consultant was employed to invest the funds in accordance with an asset allocation plan approved by the AETFA Investment Committee. The asset allocation plan is reviewed and periodically amended based on current economic conditions. The spending policy provides a methodology for the amount of earnings that can be spent. This methodology averages out the highs and lows of the stock market over 16 rolling quarters. Only 50% of this amount can then be spent after adjusting for inflation. The intention is to preserve endowment principle at current dollar values and to grow the principal at a modest rate while allowing a portion of the earnings to support the intended or designated programmatic services.
Part X, Line 2:APT has implemented the accounting requirements associated with uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 740, Income Taxes. As of September 30, 2017, the Organization had no uncertain tax positions that quality for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Previous open years may be subject to examination by taxing authorities.

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bThe information contained in the AETFA Form 990 is prepared jointly by the organization's Accounting Manager and CFO and provided to an independent tax preparer. Upon receipt of the completed Form 990 from the preparer, it is reviewed by the Accounting Manager and CFO for completeness, accuracy and continuity. It is then forwarded to the Executive Director for final review and approval. Once it is approved by the Executive Director, the CFO sends copies to the Board of Directors for their review. The Board of Directors submit any questions by a pre-determined date in the packet they receive. Once any questions are answered, the CFO signs the Form 990 and the tax preparer electronically files it the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cThe employees of the AETFA have password access to an employee intranet site that has an on-line employee guide that contains the conflict of interest policy. New employees are required to review all organizational policies in the employee guide within two weeks of employment and sign a statement that they have reviewed and understand these policies. Directors adopted the conflict of interest policy by majority vote and is periodically provided a hard copy of the policy in their board materials. New board members receive a hard copy of the policy in their board books provided immediately upon their appointments. The Board also adopted a confidential reporting system (more popularly known as a whistle-blower policy) available to all employees which is described in detail in the employee guide. This system provides a toll-free number for employees to call if they suspect any impropriety by managers and executives of the company in the form of misuse of company assets or that of other employees that they may feel have not been addressed appropriately. The phone call can be anonymous and goes to a third party provider that takes the information and then relays it directly to a Board member who has accepted responsibility for handling such employee concerns. It is then the responsibility of that Board member to take appropriate action depending on the nature of the concern. Since the implementation of the confidential reporting system in 2007, no complaints or concerns have been received.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15(a). Compensation recommendations and evaluation of the work performance of the Executive Director is conducted by a committee appointed by the Chair of the Alabama Educational Television Commission on a periodic basis. This committee may use a number of resources to assist with their charge including use of salary surveys, interviews with key employees and officers, and other benchmarks that may have been previously established. (b). Compensation for officers and key employees is generally similar to that established by the State of Alabama personnel rules but not mandated to be followed by the AETFA. Officers and key employees receive semi-annual performance reviews conducted by their immediate supervisor that have been previously reviewed and approved by a reviewing officer. Performance reviews are documented on a standardized form and key tasks are rated on the annual reviews. Based on the resulting performance score, employees may receive a merit increase within their assigned pay grades. When the State provides AETC employees with a cost of living increase, the same percentage increase is provided to AETFA employees, including officers and key employees.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The AETFA is a public corporation and is therefore subject to the Alabama Open Records Act of 1915. All documents of the corporation must be made available to any member of the public requesting to see them. The requestor may physically examine these documents between 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on standard business days at the corporate headquarters located in Birmingham, Alabama. Reasonable advance notice is requested in order for staff to have sufficient time to pull the requested documents from the public file maintained by APT and to reserve space for the requestor to conduct their examination.
Form 990, Part XII, Line 2c:No changes from prior year.
