(The Paine) possesses donated inexhaustible collections of works of art, historical treasures, and similar assets. Each of the items is catalogued for educational and curatorial purposes. Procedures are continuously employed to verify the condition and existence of each item in the collection. The Organization's intent is to preserve and maintain their collection and to use the proceeds from any sales to acquire other items for their collection. Such assets are not recognized on the Organization's statements of financial position since they are held for public inspection, education, and/or research. In addition, because these assets are not recognized on the Organization's statements of financial position, contributed collection items are not reflected on the statements of activities. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in unrestricted net assets in the year acquired or released from temporarily or permanently restricted net assets if the assets used to purchase the items have been restricted by donors. Proceeds from deaccessions or insurance recoveries are reflected as increases in the appropriate net asset classes. Part III, Line 4: The historic Paine property holds a collection of more than a thousand artworks, including paintings, sculptures, furnishings, and decorative objects. The rooms and hallways of the Paine mansion display many items from Nathan and Jessie Kimberly Paines' collection of fine art and decorative objects, most notably, French Barbizon and American landscape paintings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily purchased in the mid-1920's. The estate's gardens also feature several sculptures as focal points of the outdoor "galleries." While a majority of the collection was acquired by the Paines, it has also grown substantially through donations and purchases while continuing to reflect the subjects and spirit of the founder's original gift. The collection is catalogued for educational and curatorial purposes. The organization's intent is to preserve and maintain their collection which directly furthers the organization's purposes. Part V, Line 4: Beneficial interest in assets held by community foundation represents amounts held by Oshkosh Area Community Foundation. The Foundation invests the assets held in the fund.

Numerous bequests and donations have been made to this fund over the years of its existence. The purpose of the Shirk Endowment Fund is to maintain and care for the residence, walks, and approaches. Expenditures from this fund are restricted to income; the corpus is to remain intact. The corpus is included in permanently restricted net assets and is included in the General Endowment Fund Balance. Part X, Line 2: The Organization is required to assess whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination of the technical merits of the position assuming the taxing authority has full knowledge of all information. If the tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the benefit of that position is not recognized in the financial statements. The Organization has determined there are no amounts to record as assets or liabilities related to uncertain tax positions. Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: Fundraising Expenses -74,115.
