If your organization needs more dollars to thrive (or survive), join this session to learn the tax issues and opportunities of earning income that goes beyond traditional types of fund raising.
In the past, some organizations steered clear of activities that might generate unrelated business income. In today’s economy, seeking new revenue sources more organizations are conducting entrepreneurial activities which could result in additional revenues and, potentially, unrelated business income tax (UBIT).
In this session, learn what is and what is not unrelated business income is. We will discuss how income from charitable contributions, grants and activities that are clearly related to your organizations charitable, educational or other exempt purposes is not subject to UBIT. However, income from activities that are regularly carried on trades or businesses, unrelated to your tax-exempt purposes, may be subject to UBIT. Also, certain investment income, such as debt financed income may need to be considered in calculating UBIT, while income from some activities may be excluded.
As organizations seek additional revenue sources, including entrepreneurial activities and investment portfolios which include more alternative investments, UBIT must be considered. We will review the requirements for filing a UBIT tax return, available deductions, and discuss how much unrelated business income is too much.
Learning Objectives:
1. Learn what is and what is not unrelated business income.
2. Learn the filing requirements for Form 990-T and available deductions.
3. Learn some of the risks (and rewards) associated with earning unrelated business income.
