| SchJ_P01_S00_L01a | Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a | On rare occasions, when traveling with a group including entertainers to represent the city before an industry function or major client, it is more cost effective to utilize the services of a private charter flight rather than purchase commercial airline tickets for a large group. Also, the board of directors authorizes the President's spouse to travel and attend a limited number of business related events each year, usually where spouse participation at an event is expected. If there is not a bona fide benefit to the organization, such travel expenses are treated as compensation. The organization also provides health club memberships for 2 staff members, which is also reported as taxable compensation. |
