        <ExplanationTxt>The University does not derive any revenue from this agreement beyond the original $1 it received in entering into the agreement. As stated in question 7 above, there are no expenses exclusively or directly related to the easement agreement. Being that the 16.89 acres of the easement was part of the land purchased by the University, the fair market value of the easement is included on the University's books and financial statements as property, plant and equipment. There is not a separate footnote in the University financial statements addressing the easement agreement.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) provides guidance for how uncertain income tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed and presented in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the University's tax returns to determine whether the tax positons are more-likely-than-not of being sustained when challenged or when examined by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense and asset or liability in the current year. For the year ended May 31, 2019, management has determined there are no uncertain tax positions.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>Most students receiving need-based financial aid from the University must complete an annual Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form and make satisfactory academic progress in order to retain their aid. Reviews are also conducted on each student to ensure that their grades, academic standing, and major continue to qualify them for the financial aid. These review processes are conducted annually at the end of the University's spring term, prior to the renewal of financial aid packages for the students.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The Mercyhurst University Board of Trustees follows the recommendation of the Association of Governing Boards of Colleges and Universities among other leading authorities in our industry when dealing with presidential compensation and therefore, adheres to best practices established. The process/policy for setting presidential compensation at Mercyhurst University is the following. At Mercyhurst University, the Committee on Compensation of the Board of Trustees is responsible for the compensation-setting function of the President. The committee consists of no fewer than three trustees appointed by the chair of the board, who will also name a chair and vice chair. These trustees must be independent, without a conflict of interest as it relates to this area, and may not have been employed by Mercyhurst University in the last five years. No member may be an executive of Mercyhurst University. Continuously throughout the year, the Committee on Compensation evaluates the President's performance for the fiscal year-end and conducts a formal review at least once a year. The committee reviews the president's performance in light of the university's goals and objectives. In addition, the committee reviews the President's compensation to ensure that his compensation complies with rules governing tax-exempt universities described in the Internal Revenue Code, complies with compensation rules and regulations promulgated by any other regulatory agency or legislative authority and aligns appropriately with compensation levels at comparable universities. They use this review as the basis for recommendations on the president's compensation. The committee negotiates the terms of the (new or renewed) president's contract and increases in compensation level, elements of the compensation package, and structure. The recommendation is then presented for approval of the full board. At this time, the committee also requests the President to provide a list of goals and objectives for the institution and for the office of the president for the forthcoming year. This document provides the baseline used in evaluating the performance of the President.
