Form And Line ReferencePart X, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationProfessional Convention Management Association is subject to tax on its unrelated business activities. PCMA follows the income tax standard for uncertain tax positions. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, PCMA may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of PCMA and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business income (UBI). PCMA files Form 990 and Form 990T in the US federal jurisdiction and state locations. PCMA is no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2012.ExplanationTxt

Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1The association's executive committee is composed of the officers of the board, the immediate past chair of the board and two senior supplier partner directors. The executive committee has the power of the board of directors when the board is not in session. The executive committee must report its actions to the board at the next succeeding board meeting to seek ratification of its actions.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6The membership of PCMA is comprised of professionals engaged in meetings and conventions for their respective organizations or others. These members are classified as professional, associate professional, supplier and associate supplier. In addition, faculty and student members join from educational institutions supporting the meeting industry.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aNominations to the board are open to any professional or supplier member in good standing for a minimum of three years. A nominating committee then reviews and interviews all submissions which leads to the proposal of a slate for election to open board positions. Following notification of the slate to all members, there is a period of time in which additional nominations can be made through a prescribed petition process. When the specified process time elapses and, if no additional nominations are received, the proposed slate is deemed to be elected; otherwise, a balloting process is conducted.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7bDecisions of the governing body that require member approval are voted upon as prescribed in article V of the association's bylaws, typically at the annual business meeting or by mail.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11Management conducted a detailed review of the Form 990.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cBoard members are required to execute a conflict of interest statement for each year serving on the board. This statement includes their acknowledgment to inform the chair in writing of any changes in their circumstances affecting their relationship to the organization. Board members may not participate in any private business or personal service with the organization except as procedurally controlled to assure openness, competitive opportunity and equal access to information. If an actual or potential conflict arises, the conflicted individual withdraws from board deliberation, voting and access to applicable board information. All proceedings related to conflicts of interest are documented in the meeting minutes.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15aCompensation for the President & CEO is reviewed and approved annually by the board's executive committee. The committee used appropriate comparability data and contemporaneously substantiated the deliberation and decision for the President & CEO, Deborah Sexton.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The association makes its governing documents available to the public upon request, as required by law. The association does not make its conflict of interest nor its financial statements available to the public.
