Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part III, Line 1a:The Museum's permanent collections, which were acquired since the Museum's inception through purchases and contributions from benefactors, are not recognized as assets on the statements of financial position. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in net assets without donor restrictions in the year in which the items are acquired or as decreases in net assets with donor restrictions if the assets used to purchase the items were restricted by donors. The Museum's collections are made up of artifacts of historical significance, scientific specimens and art objects that are held for educational, research, scientific and curatorial purposes. Each of the items is cataloged, preserved and cared for, and activities verifying the items' existence and assessing their condition are performed continuously. The collections are subject to the Museum's policy that requires proceeds from their sales to be used to acquire other items for collections.
Part III, Line 4:The Museum's collection - with almost 40,000 objects that showcase advances in science, industry and technology - serves to create spectacular exhibits and experiences that excite and inspire Museum guests and further the Museum's mission and vision. Remarkable artifacts in the collection include the 700-ton U-505 submarine; a real United 727 airplane; the Pioneer Zephyr, the train that set the speed record in 1934; a British Spitfire WWII plane; a collection of carefully preserved human anatomical slices and fetuses; and much more. The Museum's collections are designed to spark scientific inquiry and creativity to motivate children to achieve their full potential in science, technology, medicine and engineering in furtherance of the Museum's exempt purpose.
Part V, Line 4:The organization's endowment funds are meant to serve as a source of financial support of the Museum's mission. A portion of annual endowment earnings are used to support museum general operations. Earnings are directed to specific elements of the Museum's operations as directed by donor restrictions on respective contributions to the endowment.
Part X, Line 2:The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance requiring tax effects from uncertain tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained should the position be challenged by a taxing authority. Management has determined that there are no material uncertain positions that require recognition in the financial statements. There are no tax positions for which a material change in any unrecognized tax benefit or liability is reasonably possible in the next twelve months. The Museum has federal net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future unrelated business taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards expire through 2036 and total approximately $2,437,000 and $2,287,000 at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, management has determined the likelihood of realizing the benefit from a future reversal of the net operating loss carryforwards is uncertain. Therefore, a 100% allowance has been applied to the deferred tax assets associated with the net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $658,000 and $617,000 at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Museum files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bThe Museum's Form 990 is prepared by an external public accounting firm who provides drafts for internal review. After the internal review, these drafts are updated, and a final draft is reviewed by the Chairperson of the Audit Committee and is made available to the Trustees electronically for their review, prior to electronically filing with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cThe Museum formally sends a conflict of interest questionnaire annually to trustees, officers and employees. The Museum's compliance officer reviews the results of the questionnaires and investigates any reported potential conflicts for resolution as necessary. From time to time, the Museum conducts business with publicly traded companies at which certain Museum board members have an employment or board relationship. Business with these companies is entered into at arms-length and through the Museum's standard procurement process without influence from the interested board member(s). Any conflicts are resolved when interested board members excuse themselves when voting on matters related to the public company in which they serve.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors oversees and approves the compensation for the executive staff of the Museum. Individual performance is evaluated by established goals and objectives which support MSI's mission and priorities. These goals and objectives are reviewed annually as part of the Museum's performance management process. The process consists of: 1. The Compensation Committee meets annually to review and make decisions on all executive (CEO and VP's) compensation. 2. Individual performance is evaluated against goals and objectives that support MSI's mission and strategic priorities. 3. From time to time, HR prepares a compensation benchmark analysis consisting of peer institutions to ensure executive compensation remains competitive within industry and reasonable. 4. Each year, MSI leadership team determines if merit increases will be awarded to Museum staff. The Chief of People and Culture facilitates and drives this process to ensure consistency and fairness across the Museum. 5. The process is contemporaneously documented.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 18The Museum posted a copy of its Form 990 on its website and made copies of Form 990 and 990-T publicly available upon request. As the Museum filed the application for recognition of exemption, Form 1023 before July 15, 1987, it need not be made publicly available.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The Museum's annual report and the financial statements are made available to the public via the Museum's website and upon request, respectively. Governing documents and conflict of interest policy are available to the public upon request for the same period of disclosure as set forth in IRC section 6104(d).
