Part III, Line 1a:	In conformity with the practice followed by most museums, historical objects purchased and donated are not capitalized. Collections that belong to the Museum include antique dolls, dollhouses and other toys. Part of the Museum is a 17th century house complete with period furnishings. The cost of all objects purchased, together with the value of objects acquired by gift if any, less proceeds from deaccessions of objects, is reported as a separate expense.
Part V, Line 4:	The Museum's primary objective is long-term capital appreciation which together with income will provide for the growth of the endowment while allowing support for current activities. The Museum has adopted a spending policy on board designated net assets whereby the amount available for distribution to operations will be a percentage of the average market value of these board designated net assets for the preceding twelve (12) quarters calculated as of June 30 of the current fiscal year. The Museum elected to use a percentagee of 4% for the year ended June 30, 2016. The amount available for distribution to operations, as directed by the donor, on permanently restricted net assets will be the greater of (1) 4% of the average market value of the permanently restricted net assets for the preceding twelve (12) quarters calculated as of June 30 of the current fiscal year, or (2) the earned income for the current fiscal year (further defined by the Wenham Museum Board of Trustees to be the interest, dividends, capital gains distributions, and net realized and unrealized capital gains (losses) earned by the permanently restricted net assets).
Part X, Line 2:	In determining the recognition of uncertain tax positions, the Museum applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and determines the measurement of uncertain tax positions considering the amounts and probabilities of the outcomes that could be realized upon ultimate settlement with taxing authorities. As of June 30, 2016, the Museum has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments:	Special Events Expense -59,211. Cost of Goods Sold -66,605. Rental Expenses -9,487.
Part XII, Line 2d - Other Adjustments:	Special Events Expense 59,211. Cost of Goods Sold 66,605. Rental Expenses 9,487.
