Schedule D, Part III, Line 4 Collections of art - description of collections	The Garden's collections include living plants, herbarium specimens, art objects, books, prints, and ephemera. The Garden has not capitalized the collections. The Garden's collections are maintained for public exhibition, education, and research in furtherance of public service rather than for financial gain. Collections are among the most valuable assets of the Garden and are protected, kept unencumbered, cared for, and preserved. The Garden makes reasonable efforts to rehome objects that are deaccessioned by sending them to similar institutions through gift, exchange, or sale. All proceeds from any sale benefits the collections.
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds	THE GARDEN HAS ADOPTED INVESTMENT AND SPENDING POLICIES FOR ENDOWMENT ASSETS TO PROVIDE LONG TERM CAPITAL APPRECIATION TO SUPPLY FUNDS FOR THE SPECIFIED PURPOSES FOR WHICH THE ORIGINAL ENDOWED GIFTS WERE GIVEN. THE TIME HORIZON FOR THE ENDOWMENT IS PERPETUITY. THE INVESTMENT ASSETS OF THE GARDEN ARE FULLY OUTSOURCED ON A DISCRETIONARY BASIS TO AN EXTERNAL PROFESSIONAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FIRM. THE INVESTMENT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES HAS RESPONSIBILITY FOR SETTING THE GARDEN'S INVESTMENT POLICY STATEMENT.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote	The Garden is a Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of the US Internal Revenue Code (IRC). It has been classified as a publicly supported charitable organization under Section 509 (a)(1) and qualifies for the maximum charitable contribution deduction by donors. In addition, the State and the City of New York (the City) have classified the Garden as nonprofit in character, and as such, the Garden is exempt from payment of income taxes to the State and the City. FASB ASC 740-10-05-6, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, prescribes the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity before being measured and recognized in the financial statements. The Garden has reported no potential liabilities for uncertain tax positions at June 30, 2025 and 2024. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the Act) was signed into legislation. The Act includes numerous changes in tax law related to tax-exempt organizations, including, but not limited to, a 21% excise tax assessed against executive compensation of covered individuals, unrelated business income taxes on qualified transportation fringe benefits, and a reduction in the federal income tax rate for corporations from 35% to 21%, which took effect for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The Garden recorded a deferred tax asset (DTA) because it was determined that the DTA will be fully utilized prior to the expiration of its net operating losses. These provisions were considered, and none were identified that would affect the tax-exempt status of the Garden as of June 30, 2025 or 2024.
