| Desc | 4A Research and Collections (See Schedule O)Research and Collections - The Smithsonian collections of nearly 154 million objects (art, artifacts and scientific specimens) are the heart of the Institution. Research, public programs and exhibitions are based on these collections which additionally include 10 million digital records of online material. Care of the collections involves the work of registrars, conservators, museum specialists, designers, curators and editors. Approximately 145 million objects and specimens are part of the National Museum of Natural History collections and primarily used for research by both Smithsonian scientists and researchers from around the world. In some cases, the museum has the definitive, irreplaceable collection of a certain species which is essential for comparative studies. A fossil that has been in the National Museum of Natural History's collection since it was discovered in 1951 is helping scientists piece together the evolutionary history of whales and dolphins, including the origins of the endangered South Asian river dolphin. The fossil has been determined to belong to a dolphin that swam in subarctic marine waters about 25 million years ago. It represents a new genus and species, which Smithsonian scientists have named Arktocara yakataga.The 1 millionth object from the Smithsonian's collections was digitized by the Smithsonian's Mass Digitization Program. A silver-and-wood teapot crafted by African American master silversmith Peter Bentzon in Philadelphia between 1817 and 1829 is one of the prized objects in the collection of the National Museum of African American History and Culture.Staff from the National Air and Space Museum and the Smithsonian's 3D Digitization Program discovered writing on the interior walls of the Apollo 11 command module - something that was previously unknown to the Smithsonian. The astronaut "graffiti," unseen for almost 50 years, includes notes, figures and a calendar, presumably written by the crew during their historic flight to the moon.The Smithsonian National Zoo celebrated the birth of three critically endangered red-ruffed lemurs born in April 2016. Unlike most primates who carry their offspring with them, red-ruffed lemurs typically leave their young in nests while they search for food. Native to the northeastern deciduous forests of Madagascar, these lemurs are considered critcally endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature due to deforestation, hunting and trapping for the pet trade.Michael Jordan donated a game-worn 1996 NBA Finals home jersey to the National Museum of African American History and Culture's permanent collection. | Desc |

| Desc | 4B Education, Public Programs and Exhibitions (See Schedule O)Education, Public Programs and Exhibitions - The Arthur M. Sackler Gallery and Freer Gallery of Art opened "Turquoise Mountain: Artists Transforming Afghanistan" March 5, 2016, in which a large gallery has been converted into a marketplace of Old Kabul with artisans demonstrating their skills in jewelry making, woodworking, calligraphy, ceramics and other crafts. Turquoise Mountain is a British charity based in Afghanistan that works with Afghan artisans and architects to revive the country's cultural heritage and revitalize Murad Khani, Kabul's historic Old City where artisans live and work. The immersive exhibition includes videos, an interactive touchscreen map, a caravanserai and a social-media wall. The first gallery on the National Mall designed for the learning needs of children from infancy to age 6 opened Dec. 9, 2015, at the National Museum of American History. "Wonderplace," a 1,700-square-foot children's center, provides the youngest historians with age-appropriate activities and experiences. The early-learning gallery completes the museum's 45,000-square-foot Innovation Wing, which features 12 exhibitions, learning spaces and program places all centered on the themes of invention, creativity and business.The National Museum of African American History and Culture opened to the public on September 24, 2016. Participants in the program included President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, former President George W. Bush and Mrs. Laura Bush, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., Smithsonian Secretary David Skorton, Rep. John Lewis and Lonnie G. Bunch III, the museum's founding director. Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., Dr. Jill Biden and former President Bill Clinton also attended the ceremony. The Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center debuted "CrossLines: A Culture Lab on Intersectionality" at the historic Arts and Industries Building. The two-day event over Memorial Day weekend featured the works of more than 40 artists, scholars and performers. "CrossLines" began traveling to various cities after closing at the Smithsonian.The National Museum of the American Indian presented a free museum-wide, two-day festival celebrating the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma's tribal history and heritage. There were hands-on activities for children and families including crafting corn-husk dolls and beaded necklaces. The Anacostia Community Museum presented "Twelve Years that Shook and Shaped Washington: 1963-1975," an exhibition documenting the slow but steady movement toward home rule as District residents obtained appointed representation and later the right to elect them. "Twelve Years" also included historical images, autobiographical stories and interviews with current and former Washingtonians involved with or observers of events significant to the era. The National Air and Space Museum's GE Aviation Series featured two accomplished and decorated female pilots-Suzanna Darcy-Hennemann, who spoke about her experiences as Boeing's first female test pilot, and Lt. Col. Christine Mau, the first and only female pilot of the F-35. | Desc |

| Part II, Line 3: | Smithsonian Institution did not modify, transfer, release, extinguish or terminate any conservation easements during the year. Part II, Line 6 The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) is located on 2,650 acres of land on the Chesapeake Bay in southern Maryland spanning forests, wetlands, marshes, and 12 miles of protected shoreline. The site serves as a natural laboratory for long-term and cutting-edge ecological research. The Smithsonian has a conservation eastment associated with property that is immediately adjacent to SERC land owned by the Institution. Facilities and security staff visit the area regularly, and are thus able to report any unusual activity on the land subject to the easement. The organization does not separately track the hours and expenses associated with monitoring the property related to the easement. Part II, Line 9: The Smithsonian Institution's conservation easement does not appear in the Institution's audited financial statements. |
| Part III, Line 1a: | In conformity with the practice generally followed by museums, no value is assigned to the collections in the statement of financial position. Purchases of collection items are recognized as reductions in net assets in the period of acquisition. Proceeds from sales of deaccessioned collection items or insurance recoveries for lost or destroyed collection items are recognized as increases in the approriate net asset class and are designated for future collection acquisitions. |
| Part III, Line 4: | The acquisition, preservation, management, and study of collections are fundamental to the Smithsonian's mission to increase and diffuse knowledge and have been the foundation upon which it rests. Smithsonian collections are a national and global resource accessed each year by millions of visitors and researchers who use traditional methods and cutting-edge technologies to explore subjects from aeronautics to zoology. Through its collections, the Smithsonian presents the astonishing record of American and international artistic, historical, cultural, and scientific achievement, with a scope and depth no other institution in the world can match. Smithsonian collections contribute to population recovery of endangered species, advances in reproductive biology, genome resource banking, medical research, forensic analysis, bio-security, and conservation policy worldwide. Assembled over more than 165 years, the collections are central to the core activities and to the vitality and significance of the Smithsonian. |
| Part V, Line 4: | The Endowment includes approximately 600 individual endowment funds. The Endowment provides stable financial support for scholarship, research activities, other programs, acquisitions of collections and other Institutional activities. It plays a critical role in enabling the Institution to achieve its mission - "the increase and diffusion of knowledge." The Endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board of Regents to function as endowments. Classification and reporting of net assets associated with the Endowment reflect donor-imposed restrictions. |
| Part X, Line 2: | The Smithsonian recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. The Smithsonian does not believe its financial statements include any uncertain tax positions. |
| Part XI, Line 2d - Other Adjustments: | Deferred gain on building 3,908,586. Change in net assets of related organizations 131,546. Change in minority interest - SNI/SI Networks LLC 2,433,900. Imputed benefit revenue 44,763,206. Increase in allowance for uncollectible pledges netted -11,167,131. against contribution revenue on audited financial statements |
| Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: | Direct expenses - fundraising -2,267,022. Direct expenses - cost of goods sold -23,191,478. |
| Part XII, Line 2d - Other Adjustments: | Direct expenses - fundraising 2,267,022. Direct expenses - cost of goods sold 23,191,478. Imputed benefit costs 44,763,206. Environmental remediation liability adjustment 1,123,640. |

| Explanation | The Office of Fellowships has central management and administrative responsibility for the Smithsonian programs of research fellowships and other academic appointments for undergraduate, graduate students, postdoctoral and senior scholars. The Smithsonian Institution Fellowship Program is a competitive fellowship program for graduate and postdoctoral fellows, who apply to conduct research at the Institution with research staff serving as advisors. The review process is made up of disciplinary committees comprised of the Institution's staff who evaluate the candidates and then select the fellows. There are other competitive and non-competitive fellowships for visiting scholar and student appointees selected through the Smithsonian units that go through a variety of other selection processes before an award is made. An official letter/agreement is provided to each award recipient identifying the award title, dates of tenure, stipend allowances, and required responsibilities for holding this position. All recipients either will identify a financial institution for receipt of their monetary award or they will receive US Treasury checks. Depending on the tenure of the appointment, payments can range from one lump sum, biweekly payments or monthly payments. Most fellowship appointments are awarded for one to two years. On occasion, the Smithsonian Institution has visiting scholars or fellows who are conducting research in another country. Payments are usually submitted as stated above, however, on occasion, there may be one or two who request that their payments be sent to the country of their research. At the end of tenure, a final report of their research accomplishments is provided for our records. Smithsonian research staff who serve as advisors to these fellows, students and scholars are usually in the field during their tenure. The eight Smithsonian research centers located in the United States and one located in Panama monitor the progress of their fellows especially those fellows in other countries, and the administrative management of funds is managed through the Institution's central administration for accountability. Part I, Line 3: Program services for travel related to research, conferences and training is for travel by SI employees, research associates, or invitational travelers (i.e., individuals who are not SI employees). Only travel essential to the performance of official Smithsonian business and for which travel-related expenses are to be paid by the Smithsonian, can be approved, authorized, and reimbursed. Investments in regions include investments in foreign partnerships and foreign corporations. The foreign region is determined by the country whose laws govern the investment entity. The value reported represents the fair market value of the investment at the end of the fiscal year. Per Form 990 instructions, stipends are reported on Schedule F if the person receiving the stipend is living or residing outside the United States at the time the stipend is paid or distributed. However, many of these stipend recipients later traveled to the Smithsonian in the United States to perform their research. | ExplanationTxt |

| Explanation | SI engaged multiple fundraising services and many work on the same campaigns. It is not possible to accurately report the exact amount of revenue associated with each fundraiser. None of these fundraisers had control of contributions; all were paid under the terms of negotiated contracts. SI closely monitors fundraising performance against established campaign goals for its contractors, and results are taken into consideration in future contract negotiations. Payments to Avalon Consulting Group of approximately $2,046,550 are not reported in Part I. This amount is for reimbursements related to fundraising expenses of postage, printing and mailing lists. Schedule G, Part I, Line 3: SI is a trust instrumentality of the U.S. and as such is exempt from state regulations pursuant to the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. All states that have inquired about SI fundraising soliciation registration have acknowledged this exemption. | ExplanationTxt |

| Explanation | The Office of Fellowships has central management and administrative responsibility for the Smithsonian programs of research fellowships and other academic appointments for undergraduate, graduate students, postdoctoral and senior scholars. The Smithsonian Institution Fellowship Program is a competitive fellowship program for graduate and postdoctoral fellows, who apply to conduct research at the Institution with research staff serving as advisors. The review process is made up of disciplinary committees comprised of the Institution's research staff who evaluate the candidates and then select the fellows. There are other competitive and non-competitive fellowships for visiting scholar and student appointees selected through the Smithsonian units that go through a variety of other selections processes before an award is made. An official letter/agreement is provided to each award recipient identifying the award title, dates of tenure, stipend allowances, and required responsibilities for holding this position. All recipients either will identify a financial institution for receipt of their monetary award or they will receive US Treasury checks. Depending on the tenure of the appointment, payments may be made in a lump sum or in periodic payments. Most fellowship appointments are awarded for one to two years. At the end of tenure, a final report of their research accomplishments is provided for our records. Smithsonian research staff who serve as advisors to these fellows, students and scholars are usually in the field during their tenure. The individual Smithsonian research centers monitor the progress of their fellows, and the funds are managed through the Institution's central administration to ensure accountability. Similiar processes are followed for awards made to organizations whose academic staff perform the related research. | ExplanationTxt |

| Part I, Line 1a | First Class Travel: One officer listed in Part VII, Section A was authorized for first class travel for bona-fide business purposes when the circumstances of their travel met the requirements of the Smithsonian's travel policy for such travel and first class travel was approved in each instance by that individual's designated "approving official" for travel. The Smithsonian's travel policy is guided by the Federal Travel Regulations as supplemented by the Smithsonian's Travel handbook. The accountable plan for travel reimbursements maintained by the Smithsonian meets IRS requirements, therefore no portion of this travel was treated as taxable compensation. Travel for companions: Travel was authorized for the spouse of a person listed in Part VII, Section A when the circumstances of that travel met the requirements of the Smithsonian's policy for such travel. The Smithsonian's policy for payment of spousal or dependent family member travel permits such payment only in limited, exceptional cases, when there is a demonstrated bona fide business purpose for the travel and the travel furthers the mission of the Smithsonian, beyond mere attendance at an event or the performance of incidental services. Such travel is authorized only if approved by the Office of General Counsel and the Office of the Under Secretary for Finance and Administration/Chief Financial Officer in advance. In the calendar year 2015, two (domestic travel) trips were approved for the spouse of an officer. Each trip was authorized consistent with policy. Because it was determined that there was a bona fide business purpose for each trip, the cost of the trips was not treated as taxable income. |
| Part I, Line 6 | Incentive Plan Certain employees of Smithsonian Enterprises (SE), a unit of the Smithsonian, are eligible to participate in the Smithsonian Enterprises Management Incentive Plan. This eligibility is determined on an annual basis. Even if eligible to participate, a performance review rating of "Fully Successful" must be received. The Plan includes both financial and individual (operational) goals, and these goals must be met in order to receive an incentive payment. There are different performance levels, with each successive level giving a higher incentive payment. In addition, the eligible person must be employed by the organization on the last day of the fiscal year in order to receive payment. Approvals for incentive payments are tiered; any payment to a senior executive is reviewed by the Secretary, with the Regents (either the Compensation Committee or the Full Board) approving incentive payments to any disqualified person, any direct report to the Secretary, and any executive with total cash above an annually determined threshold. The Regents have delegated to the Secretary the authority to approve other executive incentive payments. For non-executives, the President of SE approves those payments, except for payments above $10,000 which go to the Secretary for approval. |

| Part I, Line 32b: | Although the Smithsonian acquires collections with the good faith intention of retaining them for an indefinite period of time, prudent collections management includes judicious consideration of appropriate deaccessioning and disposal to refine and improve the quality and relevance of the collections with respect to the Smithsonian's mission and purpose. When objects are deaccessioned for disposal by sale, the Smithsonian contracts with commercial galleries or auction houses to sell the objects in order to assure the best return from the sale. |
| Part I, Line 33: | In accordance with professional practice, as allowed by SFAS 116, the Smithsonian does not assign value to collection items acquired by donation. |

| Form 990, Part IV, Line 12b | The Smithsonian's operations funded through federal appropriation are included in the U.S. Government's consolidated audited financial statements. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1 | The Bylaws of the organization delegate authority to the Executive Committee to act on behalf of the Board of Regents when the Board of Regents is not in session. The Board of Regents elects from its members an Executive Committee consisting of three members. The Executive Committee has and may exercise all powers of the Board of Regents when the Board of Regents is not in session, except those expressly reserved to itself by the Board of Regents, provided that all such proceedings are reported to the Governance and Nominating Committee and the Board of Regents on a regular basis. The Chair of the Board serves as Chair of the Executive Committee. The Vice Chair of the Board serves as a member of the Executive Committee. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a | Pursuant to federal statute, the Board of Regents consists of the Vice President of the United States, the Chief Justice of the United States, three members of the U.S. Senate, three members of the U.S. House of Representatives, and nine additional citizen Regents. The three Senators are appointed by the President Pro Tempore of the U.S. Senate, and the three members of the House of Representatives are appointed by the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Their appointment terms coincide with the terms for which they are elected, and they may be reappointed if re-elected. The citizen Regents are nominated by the Board of Regents, and appointed by a Joint Resolution of Congress which is signed by the President of the United States. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 | The Form 990 return is prepared by staff in the Office of Finance & Accounting. It is then reviewed by the Director of Finance and Accounting, the Office of General Counsel, Chief Financial Officer and the Secretary of the Smithsonian, as well as by external tax advisors. After this review process, the 990 is made available to the full Board for its review and comment. The Audit & Review Committee conducts a final review of the return at a regularly scheduled Committee meeting prior to its filing. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | All officers, key employees, and certain other employees are required to complete and file annually a Confidential Financial Disclosure Report. These Reports - which require disclosure of certain assets, earned income, liabilities, outside positions, outside contracts and agreements, gifts, hospitality, reimbursements, and other interests related to the employee's Smithsonian position - are reviewed by the Institution's Office of General Counsel for compliance with applicable conflict of interest policies and laws. In addition to this required reporting, all key employees are required to comply with the Institution's Standards of Conduct, which, among other things, requires that employees not engage in private or personal activities that might conflict or appear to conflict with Smithsonian interests, requires that employees obtain Office of General Counsel approval before engaging in an outside activity for compensation, and requires employees to consult with the Office of General Counsel whenever a doubt exists as to whether an activity or planned activity violates the Standards. All members of the Smithsonian's governing body are required to complete and file annually the Board of Regents Annual Disclosure Statement. These statements - which require reporting by members (including any reportable interests held by immediate family of members) on outside positions and substantial shareholding in for-profit business entities, outside positions in non-profit entities, and interests and affiliations of the member that have or sought to have a relationship to the Smithsonian - are reviewed by the Institution's General Counsel for compliance with applicable conflict of interest policies and laws. In addition to this required reporting, all members of the Smithsonian's governing body are required to comply with the Board of Regents Ethics Guidelines, which, among other things, define conflicts of interest and establish procedures for disclosing and reporting of conflicts and recusal from decision-making. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | The Smithsonian ensures that compensation paid to officers and other key employees is reasonable and comparable to similar organizations. Employees of the Smithsonian may be paid with federally appropriated funds or with nonfederal ("Trust") funds. Most Trust funded (nonfederal) officer and key employee positions are subject to market-based compensation, and the Board of Regent's Committee on Compensation and Human Resources engages an independent consultant to develop and assemble comparability data for its consideration and to inform its decisions. The Committee's annual deliberations and decisions are documented as part of the final recommendation materials submitted to the Board of Regents. Salaries for Federal employees are determined by statutorily established pay ranges for civil service employees. As a matter of policy, the Smithsonian has established similar ranges for certain Trust funded officer and key employee positions and maintains those ranges in proportion to the appropriate Federal pay ranges. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | The Smithsonian makes its governing documents, statement of values and code of ethics, and audited financial statements available on its public website (www.si.edu). Documents may also be viewed at the Office of Finance and Accounting or mailed. |

Environmental remediation obligation FASB ASC 410-20 -1,123,640. Bad Debt reserve established for prior years pledge -10,000,000. |
