PART III, LINE 1A:	THE VALUE OF THE COLLECTION, WHICH WAS ACQUIRED THROUGH PURCHASES AND CONTRIBUTIONS SINCE THE MUSUEM'S INCEPTION, IS NOT REFLECTED AS AN ASSET ON THE STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION. PURCHASES OF COLLECTION ITEMS ARE RECORDED AS DECREASES IN UNRESTRICTED NET ASSETS IN THE YEAR OF ACQUISITION. CONTRIBUTIONS OF COLLECTION ITEMS ARE NOT RECOGNIZED IN THE STATEMENTS OF ACTIVITIES. PROCEEDS FROM DEACCESSIONS OR INSURANCE RECOVERIES WOULD BE REFLECTED ON THE STATEMENTS OF ACTIVITIES BASED ON THE ABSENCE OR EXISTENCE AND NATURE OF DONOR-IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS. THE COLLECTION IS HELD FOR PUBLIC SERVICE RATHER THAN FINANCIAL GAIN, PROTECTED AND PRESERVED, AND SUBJECT TO AN ORGANIZATIONAL POLICY THAT REQUIRES THE PROCEEDS FROM SALES OF SUCH ITEMS TO BE USED TO ACQUIRE OTHER ITEMS FOR COLLECTIONS.
PART III, LINE 4:	THE MUSEUM'S COLLECTION OF MORE THAN 2,000 OBJECTS IS CONSIDERED TO BE THE MOST EXTENSIVE OF ITS KIND IN THE WEST.
