More complicated than taxable for-profits
  • The notion of organized and operated
    exclusively
  • Form 990 is mind-numbing
  • Measure whether sufficient exempt function
    activity is occurring to justify favorable tax
    treatment
  • Commensurate test
  • Tax Exempt (most net income not taxable)
  • Tax Deductible (mostly 501(c)(3) organizations)
  • Form 990 as a Public Communication tool
  • Heightened public focus stoked by scandals
  • 2008 Form 990 overhaul first in 30 years

Legal Concepts
  • Legal Concepts
  • the Big Four
  • (plus assorted details
  • the fine print ? )

Internal Revenue Code501(c) (3) (Complete!
)
  • (3) Corporations, and any community chest, fund,
    or foundation, organized and operated exclusively

(color, bold underlines added)
12
Legal Concepts The Big Four
  • Commerciality
  • How much can we operate like a business and still
    be tax exempt?
  • Can we charge for services?
  • Private Inurement - Insiders
  • How much can we pay the boss?
  • Can we rent from the Chairperson?
  • Public vs. Private Benefit
  • Who really benefits from our work, on balance?
  • Politics Lobbying
  • Can we support candidates for office?
  • Can we join a coalition to oppose legislation?

13
Commerciality -1
  • History
  • destination test, until
  • NYU / Mueller Macaroni, circa 1950
  • Pizza parlor example operated for charitable
    (not commercial) purpose
  • Exempt function income / program service
    revenue
  • income as a by-product of program activity
  • The concept of Unrelated Business Income (Tax)
  • trade or business
  • regularly carried on
  • unrelated to the exempt purpose

14
Commerciality -2
  • Common problem / error technical assistance
  • substantially below cost
  • Useful exclusions from UBI follow from definition
  • passive not carried on at all
  • interest, rents royalties (watch out for
    debt-financed property)
  • gains losses
  • not regularly carried on
  • substantially by volunteers not trade or
    business
  • sale of donated merchandise not trade or
    business
  • convenience of patrons related
  • All revenues are one of these three
  • Related Exempt Function Income (a/k/a program
    svc revenue)
  • UBTI
  • UBI but for exclusion

15
Commerciality -3
  • Qualified Sponsorship Payments (v. advertising)
  • no price item, inducement to buy, comparative
    messaging
  • watch out for web links!
  • RESOURCE Session 19 (qualified sponsorships)
  • Dual types For-Profit Nonprofit/EO (e.g.
    hospitals)
  • usually means there will be specific guidance
  • frustrating issue evolutionary enterprises
    (e.g. schools) poaching
  • RESOURCE Session 55 (hospitals community
    benefit)
  • Commercial sub-activities
  • when UBI activity becomes jeopardizing
    substantial (?)
  • for-profit subsidiary

16
Private Inurement -1
  • about INSIDERS (power to exercise major
    influence)
  • History William Aramony
  • (resigned 1992, convicted 1995, released 2001)
  • Need for Intermediate Sanctions IRC 4958
  • Continued concern driven by juicy scandals
    Smithsonian, American University, Irvine
    Foundation, etc etc etc
  • Excess compensation most common issue
  • Excess Benefit Transactions includes loans
    other (buy/sell/rent)
  • T. Pattara says Grassley on a tear about this
    (recent news about Grassley Boys Girls Clubs)
    Congress as a wild card

17
Private Inurement -2
  • Conflicts of Interest / Conflict of Interest
    Policies
  • Definition?
  • IRS concerned about self-dealing
  • Confidential information? Settling scores?
  • Who covered?
  • IRS directors officers (they define officer
    to include CEO CFO)
  • All employees? Volunteers?
  • What relationships to report?
  • IRS close family business
  • Domestic partners? Best friends?
  • How declared?
  • IRS at least annually report all
    relationships that could give rise
  • Duty of loyalty develop sensitivities to
    disclosure openness
  • How monitored enforced?
  • Disclosure recusal is usually enough

18
Private Inurement -3
  • Section 4958 Overview (c)(3) pub charities
    (c)(4) orgs
  • Penalties doubled by Pension Protection Act
  • Severe on individuals
  • notion of intermediate sanctions scrambled up
    by Caracci case
  • 4958 rebuttable presumption basics re
    disqualified persons
  • Written comparables, saved with minutes
  • Disinterested majority of board, with interested
    party/parties out of room
  • Good faith determination best interest of the
    organization
  • Prior to transaction
  • Some in Congress want safe harbor steps required
  • IRS considers it best practice pressure to
    report
  • IRS concerned about quality of comparables
  • Risks notion of Automatic Excess Benefit
    Transactions / Listed Property
  • RESOURCES Session 48 (intermediate sanctions)
  • Session 53 (comparability audits)

19
Public v. Private Benefit -1
  • 501(c)(3)s 501(c)(4)s
  • Subtle / requires step back ask who really
    benefits?
  • NOT about insiders, necessarily
  • avoid more than incidental private benefit
  • the presence of private benefit, if substantial
    in nature, will destroy tax-exempt status
    regardless of an organizations other charitable
    purposes or activities Marcus Owens on Better
    Business Bureau case (Resources)
  • Charitable class how big? Public?
  • Private Benefit IRS new all-purpose hammer?
  • commensurate test
  • efficiency effectiveness
  • dovetails with public skepticism

20
Public v. Private Benefit -2
  • Famous cases
  • American Campaign Academy
  • Consumer Credit Counseling
  • current Seller-financed Down Payment Assistance
  • Governance as indicator of risk audit flag
  • v. denial of exemption application
  • unpredictable
  • good governance policies controls Owens paper
    (Pg 111-64), e.g.
  • broad Board
  • clear records on achievements
  • conflict of interest whistleblower policies
  • commitment to proper arms length
  • outside auditor if big enough, internal auditor
  • greater disclosure than required
  • accountable plan for reimbursements
  • compensation process use rebuttable presumption

21
Public Policy AdvocacyLobbying v. Politics
  • Key distinction Lobbying v. Candidate
    Electioneering
  • big danger in jumbling them !!
  • C3 Public Charity Lobbying legislation
  • including work on referenda even though elections
    involved
  • C456 Lobbying legislation
  • plus certain executive branch decision making
  • Electioneering candidates for elected office
  • some targeted lobbying IS electioneering

22
Public Policy Advocacy Lobbying -1
  • 501(c)(3) Public Charities
  • History 1930, 1934, 1955, 1970, 1990
  • Expenditure Test v. Substantial Part Test
  • Expenditure Test more objective (IRC 501(h),
    Regs 4911)
  • Direct v. Grassroots lobbying
  • Specific legislative proposal
  • Substantial Part Test facts circumstances
  • 501(c)(3) Private Foundations
  • No explicit lobbying (earmarked / restricted)
  • Some wiggle room (general support, or project
    support less than the non-lobbying portion of the
    project)
  • mostly they just dont want to hear about it ?

23
Public Policy Advocacy Lobbying -2
  • 501(c)(non-3) Exempt Organizations
  • Unlimited if related to exempt purpose
  • 501(c)(4)s (NRA, Sierra Club, etc) lobby a LOT
  • 501(c)(5) (Labor unions, Farm Bureau) lobby a LOT
  • 501(c)(6) (Trade associations, chambers of
    commerce, professional associations) lobby a LOT
  • 501(c)(7) social recreational not so much
  • Different definitions legislation (other than
    local), plus certain executive branch policies
  • Business dues non-deductible as biz expense if
    used for lobbying, must apply dues income first
    to Lobbying
  • Notify members of non-deductible portion, or
  • Pay 35 proxy tax

24
Public Policy Advocacy Lobbying -3
  • Remember this has been about TAX law
  • Fed / State / (Local?) ethics registration
    rules such as Congressional Lobbying Disclosure
    Act (LDA)
  • Trigger points ( level)
  • Different definitions
  • Wining dining gifts travel, money in
    politics, including by individuals from
    organization (!)
  • LDA allows public charities that have elected the
    expenditure test to use some of the tax
    definitions
  • Ballot measures may involve State election
    commissions and PAC regulation / registration /
    reporting
  • RESOURCE Session 43 (elect lobbying
    reporting beyond tax)

25
Public Policy Advocacy Candidate
Electioneering -1
  • IRC Section 527 527 Activities political
    electioneering
  • True meaning influence the election of
    candidates
  • 527 As used in the press issue advocacy
    targeted at influencing election of candidates
    which escapes election commission jurisdiction by
    not being explicit
  • will Citizens United kill off such issue 527s
    of this sort?
  • 501(c)(3) Charities (both PC PF)
  • CANDIDATE ELECTIONEERING PROHIBITED
  • Revocation and/or penalties on charity AND on
    individuals (Board)
  • Non-partisan voter registration, voter education
    get out the vote are all OK if done just right
  • (think League of Women Voters)

26
Public Policy Advocacy Candidate
Electioneering -2
  • 501(c)(4,5,6 ) organizations
  • Must be not primary purpose, conducted legally,
    and consistent with overall exempt purpose
  • Primary 51/49? No clear standard
  • EACH year, no rolling periods
  • Legal jurisdiction of FEC or State/Local
    equivalents
  • Usually means hiring election law counel
  • Notion of Separate Segregated Fund
  • 527 Organizations
  • Not just soft PACs / issue 527s includes
    parties, candidate cttees
  • Risk if not political enough
  • (more than insubstantial non-exempt purposes)

27

501(c)(3) Public Charity or Private Foundation?
  • 501(c)(3) charities are private foundations (PF)
    by default, unless can qualify as a public
    charity (PC)
  • status tests (e.g. school) or public support
    tests
  • Grandmas Foundation vs. Publicly-Supported
    Charity
  • PC is better much less regulated than PF
  • better donor deductibility ( of AGI, FMV v.
    Basis)
  • more transactions with insiders allowed safe
    harbor avail (for now)
  • no tax on investment income, fewer excise tax
    penalties
  • may MAKE grants to any entity (including foreign)
    for specific charitable purposes (if entity not a
    c3)
  • only practical way to get many PF grants is to be
    a PC
  • may lobby

29

  • Advance period for startup dont prove until
    Year 6 (2-3-4-5-6)
  • 509(a)(1) 170(b)(1)(A)(vi) broad gift support
  • more forgiving and flexible than (a)(2)
  • some changes with New 990
  • 509(a)(2) broad base of earned revenue from
    program services, plus very small gifts

    from inception
  • unforgiving, inflexible test
