Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Part IV, Line 12 and Part XII, line 2B:The organization's financial statements are audited annually in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards as part of a consolidated group. Since the organization owns 100% of a for-profit foreign subsidiary, the organization is required under generally accepted accounting principles to issue consolidated financial statements. Therefore stand-alone audited financial statements were not issued for the organization as the parent company.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6WEF has individual and corporate members.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aWEF Officers and Board of Trustee nominees shall be recommended by the WEF Nominating Subcommittee, approved by the Board, and confirmed by the House of Delegates as so described in this Constitution and Bylaws.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7bAny proposed changes to the WEF Articles of Incorporation or Constitution and Bylaws must be recommended by the Board of Trustees and must also be ratified by a quorum of voting members.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The form 990 is drafted by WEF's outside audit firm with information and input from WEF's Executive Director and DED/Chief Financial Officer. The draft 990 is reviewed by WEF's Treasurer, Executive Director and DED/Chief Financial Officer for accuracy. Once this team has approved the draft 990, it is filed with the IRS. The form 990 is then posted to the Board of Trustees' website for its review and reference.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cEach new Board Trustee is oriented on the WEF Conflict of Interest Policy. Every Trustee signs a statement annually acknowledging the policy. At the beginning of every Board meeting, the Board members are reminded of their responsibility to acknowledge conflicts of interest when the agenda is being reviewed. Each member of the Board of Trustees is required to disclose "other interests," as defined in the policy, annually and more frequently if other interests arise. The Board or delegated representatives of the Board must decide what, if any, corrective measures to take in response to disclosures of other interests.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15WEF participates in several salary surveys in the Washington, DC area. Surveys and data are received and reviewed to inform a salary structure and to make compensation recommendations. The Executive Director's compensation is reviewed by the Board of Trustees. Data for WEF Key Employees are reviewed by the Executive Director, Human Resources Director and Leadership Staff.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19WEF's financial information is available on the 990 and posted on the internet through information sources such as GuideStar. WEF's policy also makes copies of WEF's documents available to direct requests made to WEF at its office.
