Attach all appropriate forms and/or schedules showing the  
Consolidated returns. The consolidated return provisions of  
section 1501 don't apply to exempt organizations, except for  
organizations having title holding companies. If a title holding  
corporation described in section 501(c)(2) pays any amount of  
its net income for a tax year to an organization exempt from tax  
under section 501(a) (or would, except that the expenses of  
collecting its income exceeded that income), and the corporation  
and organization file a consolidated return as described below,  
then treat the title holding corporation as being organized and  
operated for the same purposes as the other exempt  
organization (in addition to the purposes described in section  
501(c)(2)).  
Two organizations exempt from tax under section 501(a), one  
a title holding company and the other earning income from the  
first, will be includible corporations for purposes of section  
1504(a). If the organizations meet the definition of an affiliated  
group and the other relevant provisions of chapter 6, then these  
organizations may file a consolidated return. The parent  
organization must attach Form 851, Affiliations Schedule, to the  
consolidated return. For the first year a consolidated return is  
filed or for the first year a new corporation is added to a  
consolidated return, the title holding company must attach Form

for that claim.  
IRAs and other tax-exempt shareholders in a RIC or REIT.  
If you are an IRA or other tax-exempt shareholder that is invested  
in a RIC or a REIT and file Form 990-T only to obtain a refund of  
income tax paid on undistributed long-term capital gains, follow  
the steps under Claim for refund (including special instructions  
for IRA trustees) above; check the applicable box in item H at the  
top of Form 990-T; and attach Copy B of Form 2439, Notice to  
Shareholder of Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains.  
Composite Form 990-T. If you are a trustee of more than one  
IRA invested in a RIC, you may be able to file a composite Form  
990-T to claim a refund of tax under section 852(b) instead of  
filing a separate Form 990-T for each IRA. See Notice 90-18,  
1990-1 C.B. 327, for information on who can file a composite  
return. Complete the steps under Claim for refund (including  
special instructions for IRA trustees) above and follow the  
additional requirements in the notice.  
Organizations with no UBTI. An organization with no UBTI  
that needs to file Form 990-T should complete and file Form  
990-T only. Such an organization does not complete or attach  
Schedule A (Form 990-T) to its return.  
Elective payment election only. Organizations filing with  
regard to making an elective payment election and have no  
unrelated business taxable income, including applicable entities  
(as defined earlier) not subject to federal income tax and not  
otherwise required to file any annual tax or information return,  
must complete the following lines of Form 990-T.  
Backup withholding. If your only reason for filing Form  
990-T is to claim a refund of backup withholding, complete the  
steps under Claim for refund (including special instructions for  
IRA trustees) above and attach a copy of the Form 1099 showing  
the withholding.

Extension of Time To File an Exempt Organization Return.  
Note: For 2023, an applicable entity filing Form 990-T solely to

A State, the District of Columbia, or political subdivision or  
instrumentality or agency thereof;  
The Tennessee Valley Authority; or  
An Indian tribal government or a subdivision or instrumentality  
Interest and Penalties  
or agency thereof,  
Your organization may be subject to interest and penalty charges  
if it files a late return or fails to pay tax when due. Generally, the  
organization isn't required to include interest and penalty  
charges on Form 990-T because the IRS can figure the amount  
and bill the organization for it.  
does not need to file Form 8868 to request an automatic  
extension of time to file Form 990-T. For 2023, a paperless  
automatic extension will be provided to each such entity that has  
registered its intention to make an elective payment election and  
has obtained one or more registration numbers.  
Interest. Interest is charged on taxes not paid by the original  
due date of the return even if the organization uses Form 8868 to  
request an automatic extension of time to file. Interest is also  
charged on penalties imposed for failure to file, negligence,  
fraud, substantial valuation misstatements, and substantial  
understatements of tax from the due date (including extensions)  
to the date of payment. The interest charge is figured at the  
underpayment rate determined under section 6621.  
Amended return. To correct errors or change a previously filed  
return, check box F, Check box if an amended return,at the top  
of the return. Also, in Part V, Supplemental Information, include a  
statement that indicates the line numbers on the original return  
that were changed and give the reason for each change.  
Generally, the amended return must be filed within 3 years after  
the date the original return was due or 3 years after the date the  
organization filed it, whichever is later.  
Late filing of return. An organization that fails to file its return  
when due (including extensions of time for filing) is subject to a  
penalty of 5% of the unpaid tax for each month or part of a month  
the return is late, up to a maximum of 25% of the unpaid tax. The  
minimum penalty for a return that is more than 60 days late is the  
smaller of the tax due or $485. The penalty won't be imposed if  
the organization can show that the failure to file on time was due  
to reasonable cause. If you receive a notice about a penalty after  
you file this return, reply to the notice with an explanation and we  
will determine if you meet reasonable-cause criteria. Don’t  
include an explanation when you file your return.  
Where and How To File  
Required electronic filing. If you are an organization or trust  
defined in section 511 and need to file Form 990-T, you are  
required to file electronically. For additional information, visit  
If you are an applicable entity that is not an organization or  
trust defined in section 511, and you are filing Form 990-T to  
make an elective payment election, electronic filing is  
encouraged but not required.  
Late payment of tax. The penalty for late payment of taxes is  
usually 1/2 of 1% of the unpaid tax for each month or part of a  
month the tax is unpaid. The penalty can’t exceed 25% of the  
unpaid tax. If you receive a notice about a penalty after you file  
this return, reply to the notice with an explanation and we will  
determine if you meet reasonable-cause criteria. Don’t include  
an explanation when you file your return.  
Estimated Tax Payments  
Generally, an organization filing Form 990-T must make  
installment payments of estimated tax if its estimated tax (tax  
minus allowable credits) is expected to be $500 or more. Don't  
include the proxy tax when computing your estimated tax liability  
for 2023.  
Estimated tax penalty. An organization that doesn’t make  
estimated tax payments when due may be subject to an  
underpayment penalty for the period of underpayment.  
Generally, an organization is subject to this penalty if its tax  
liability for the tax year is $500 or more and it didn’t make  
estimated tax payments of at least the smaller of its tax liability  
for the tax year or 100% of the prior year's tax. See section 6655  
for details and exceptions.  
Depository Method of Tax Payment  
The organization must pay any tax due in full by the due date of  
the return without extension.  
Electronic Deposit Requirement  
The organization must deposit all depository taxes (such as  
employment tax, excise tax, and corporate income tax)  
electronically. Generally, electronic funds transfers are made  
using the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS). For  
more information about EFTPS or to enroll in EFTPS, go to  
EFTPS.gov, or call 800-555-4477. To contact EFTPS using  
Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS) for people who are  
deaf, hard of hearing, or have a speech disability, dial 711 and  
then provide the TRS assistant the 800-555-4477 number above  
or 800-733-4829. Also, see Pub. 966, Electronic Federal Tax  
Payment System: A Guide to Getting Started.  
Trust fund recovery penalty. This penalty may apply if certain  
excise, income, social security, and Medicare taxes that must be  
collected or withheld aren't paid to the U.S. Treasury. These  
taxes are generally reported on:  
Form 720, Quarterly Federal Excise Tax Return;  
Form 941, Employer's QUARTERLY Federal Tax Return;  
Form 943, Employer's Annual Federal Tax Return for  
Agricultural Employees; or  
Form 945, Annual Return of Withheld Federal Income Tax.  
The trust fund recovery penalty may be imposed on all  
Depositing on time. For EFTPS deposits to be made timely,  
the organization must submit the deposit by 8 p.m. Eastern time  
the day before the deposit is due.  
persons who are determined by the IRS to have been  
responsible for collecting, accounting for, and paying over these  
taxes, and who acted willfully in not doing so. The penalty is  
equal to the unpaid trust fund tax. See the Instructions for Form  
720; or Pub. 15 (Circular E), Employer's Tax Guide, for details,  
including the definition of responsible persons.  
Same-day wire payment option. If you fail to submit a deposit  
transaction on EFTPS by 8 p.m. Eastern time the day before the  
date a deposit is due, you can still make your deposit on time by  
using the Federal Tax Application (FTA), a same-day federal tax

Accounting Methods  
An accounting method is a practice a taxpayer follows to  
determine the year in which to report revenue and expenses for  
federal income tax purposes. An accounting method includes  
6
Instructions for Form 990-T  
   
not only the overall plan of accounting for gross income or  
deductions (for example, an accrual method or the cash receipts  
and disbursement method), but also the treatment of an item  
used in such overall plan. However, a practice that does not  
affect the timing for reporting an item of income or deduction for  
purposes of determining taxable income is not an accounting  
method. A taxpayer, including a tax-exempt entity, adopts any  
permissible accounting method in the first year in which it uses  
the method in determining its taxable income. See Rev. Proc.  
2015-13, 2015-5 I.R.B. 419.  
Alternatively, if a taxpayer, including a tax-exempt entity, has  
not yet adopted an accounting method for an item of income or  
deduction, a change in how the entity reports the item isn’t a  
change in accounting method. In this case, the procedures  
applicable to requests for accounting method changes (the  
requirement to file Form 3115) aren’t applicable. See Rev. Proc.  
2015-13 for the definition of what constitutes an accounting  
method change.  
Thus, a tax-exempt entity that has never taken into account  
an item of income or deduction in determining taxable income  
does not have to request consent to change its method of  
reporting that item on its Form 990-T. Additionally, a tax-exempt  
entity that has never been subject to federal income tax on an  
item of income or deduction, but that is required to file a Form  
990-T solely due to owing a section 6033(e)(2) proxy tax, does  
not have to request consent to change its method for reporting  
the item.  
Adjustments required when changing an accounting  
method. A taxpayer, including a tax-exempt entity, that changes  
its accounting method must generally calculate and report an  
adjustment to ensure that no portion of the item being changed  
is permanently omitted or duplicated (see section 481(a)).  
However, depending on the specific method change, the IRS  
may provide that an adjustment isn’t required or permitted.  
An exempt organization may adopt an accounting  
method not only for purposes of calculating taxable  
!
CAUTION  
income, but also for purposes of determining whether  
taxable income will be subject to federal income tax. For  
example, a tax-exempt entity may adopt an accounting method  
for an item of income from an unrelated trade or business activity  
even if the gross income from the activity is less than $1,000 and  
is therefore not taxed for federal income tax purposes pursuant  
to Regulations section 1.6012-2(e).  
An accounting method for an item of income or deduction may  
generally be adopted separately for each of the taxpayer’s trades  
or businesses. However, in order to be permissible, an  
accounting method must clearly reflect the taxpayer’s income.  
Unless instructed otherwise, the organization should generally  
use the same accounting method on the Form 990-T and all  
schedules to report revenue and expenses that it regularly uses  
to keep its books and records.  
Generally, a taxpayer, including a tax-exempt entity, will  
recognize a positive section 481(a) adjustment (that is,  
!
CAUTION  
an increase to income) ratably over 4 tax years and will  
recognize a negative section 481(a) adjustment in full in the year  
of change. See Rev. Proc. 2015-13 or its successor.  
Accounting method change. Once a taxpayer, including a  
tax-exempt entity, adopts an accounting method for federal  
income tax purposes, the taxpayer must generally request the  
IRS consent before it can change its accounting method (even if  
the year in which the taxpayer seeks to make the change is a  
year in which it generates only tax-exempt income or is  
otherwise not taxed on its taxable income). In most cases, a  
taxpayer requests consent to change an accounting method by  
filing Form 3115, Application for Change in Accounting Method.  
See Rev. Proc. 2015-13, or any successor, for general  
procedures for obtaining consent to change an accounting  
method. See the Instructions for Form 3115 and Pub. 538 for  
more information and exceptions. See Rev. Proc. 2021-34 for  
additional procedures that may apply for obtaining automatic  
consent to change methods of accounting for revenue  
recognition and certain other methods of accounting that may  
affect the accounting for revenue recognition. Also see Rev.  
Proc. 2022-09 for additional procedures that may apply for  
obtaining automatic consent to change certain methods of  
accounting related to small businesses.  
An organization may elect a 1-year adjustment period for a  
positive section 481(a) adjustment that is less than $50,000. See  
the Instructions for Form 3115 for more information and the  
requirements to make this election.  
Include any positive section 481(a) adjustment on  
Schedule A (Form 990-T), Part I, line 12 (Other income). If the  
section 481(a) adjustment is negative, report it as a deduction on  
Schedule A (Form 990-T), Part II, line 14 (Other deductions).  
The section 481(a) adjustment should not be reported on Form  
990-T as a negative number.  
However, as discussed above, if a tax-exempt entity has not  
yet adopted an accounting method for an item, a change in how  
the entity reports the item for purposes of filing the Form 990-T is  
not a change in accounting method. In this case, an adjustment  
under section 481(a) isn’t required or permitted.  
Accounting Period  
Depending on the specific accounting method change being  
requested, the taxpayer may be able to request automatic  
consent. This means that, as long as the taxpayer follows the  
applicable procedures, the taxpayer does not have to wait for  
formal approval by the IRS before applying the new accounting  
method available at Rev. Proc. 2022-14, for the List of Automatic  
Changes for 2022; as modified by Rev. Proc. 2022-23; 2022-18  
I.R.B. 1052, available at Rev. Proc. 2022-23, providing guidance  
allowing late elections under sections 168(j)(8) and 168(l)(3)(D),  
and also providing guidance allowing a late election under  
section 181(a)(1), for a list of accounting method changes that  
may qualify for automatic consent.  
For example, a tax-exempt entity that has adopted an  
accounting method for an item of income from an unrelated trade  
or business must generally request consent before it can change  
its method of accounting for that item in any subsequent year.  
This is true regardless of whether gross income from the  
unrelated trade or business is $1,000 or more in such  
subsequent year.  
The return must be filed using the organization's established  
annual accounting period. If the organization has no established  
accounting period, file the return on the calendar-year basis.  
Applicable entities such as state and local governmental  
entities and Indian tribal governments that have not established  
an annual accounting period for purposes of filing a tax return  
should identify their annual accounting period on their first Form  
990-T.  
Fiscal year. If the organization has established a fiscal year  
accounting period, use the 2023 Form 990-T to report on the  
organization's fiscal year that began in 2023 and ended 12  
months later. A fiscal year accounting period should normally  
coincide with the natural operating cycle of the organization. Be  
certain to indicate in Item A of Form 990-T, the date the  
organization's fiscal year began in 2023 and the date the fiscal  
year ended in 2024.  
To change an accounting period, some organizations may  
make a notation on a timely filed Form 990, 990-EZ, 990-PF, or  
7
Instructions for Form 990-T  
   
990-T. Others may be required to file Form 1128, Application To  
Adopt, Change, or Retain a Tax Year. For details on which  
procedure applies to your organization, see Rev. Proc. 85-58,  
1985-2 C.B. 740, and the Instructions for Form 1128.  
Name and Address  
The name and address on Form 990-T should be the same as  
the name and address shown on other Forms 990.  
Include the suite, room, or other unit number after the street  
address. If the Post Office doesn’t deliver mail to the street  
address and the organization has a P.O. box, show the box  
number instead of the street address.  
For the short-period return, figure the tax by placing the  
organization's taxable income on an annual basis. If the  
organization changes its accounting period, file Form 990-T for  
the short period that begins with the first day after the end of the  
old tax year and ends on the day before the first day of the new  
tax year. For details, see section 443.

the following ways.  
Item E. If the organization is covered by a group exemption,  
Line 1. Enter the sum of the positive amounts from all  
Schedules A (Form 990-T), Part II, line 18. Don’t include any  
amount from Schedule A (Form 990-T), Part II, line 18, that is  
less than zero in the computation of total unrelated trade or  
business income reported on Part I, line 1.  
enter the group exemption number.  
Item F. Check this box if the organization previously filed a  
Form 990-T return with the IRS for a tax year and is now filing  
another return for the same tax year to amend the previously  
filed return. Also, see Amended return, earlier, for information  
you must include in an amended return.  
Line 2. Reserved. Do not enter any amount on this line.  
Charitable Contributions  
Item G. Check the box that describes your organization.  
Check the box for "6417(d)(1)(A) Applicable entity" only if no  
other checkbox on this line applies. For example, a rural electric  
cooperative exempt under section 501(c)(12) should check the  
box for 501(c) Corporation or 501(c) Trust, (as the case may be).  
Similarly, a public college or university should check the box for  
"State college/university" even if it is filing Form 990-T solely with  
regard to an elective payment election.  
Line 4. Enter contributions or gifts actually paid within the tax  
year to or for the use of charitable and governmental  
organizations described in section 170(c). Also, enter any

Line 8. A specific deduction of $1,000 is allowed except for  
computing the NOL and the net operating loss deduction under  
section 172.  
Item H. Check if filing Form 990-T only to claim a credit from  
Form 8941, to claim a refund shown on Form 2439, or to claim  
the elective payment election amount from Form 3800.  
Only one specific deduction may be taken, regardless of the  
number of unrelated businesses conducted. However, a  
diocese, province of a religious order, or convention or  
association of churches is allowed one specific deduction for  
each parish, individual church, district, or other local unit that  
regularly conducts an unrelated trade or business. This applies  
only to those parishes, districts, or other local units that aren't  
separate legal entities but are components of a larger entity  
(diocese, province, convention, or association). Each specific  
deduction will be the smaller of $1,000 or the gross income from  
any unrelated trade or business the local unit conducts. If you  
claim a total specific deduction larger than $1,000, attach a  
statement showing how you figured the amount. The attached  
statement should include the name of each local unit, its gross  
unrelated business income, and its allowable specific deduction  
(which can’t exceed the smaller of $1,000 or the local unit’s  
gross unrelated business income).  
Item I. Check if you are a 501(c)(3) organization filing a  
consolidated return with a 501(c)(2) title holding corporation.  
See Consolidated returns, earlier, for additional information.  
Item J. Enter the total number of Schedules A attached to Form  
990-T. An organization with one or more unrelated trades or  
businesses will complete a separate Schedule A for each  
unrelated trade or business.  
Complete all needed Schedules A before completing  
Parts I through V of Form 990-T.

Item K. Check “Yes” box if your organization is a corporation  
and either (1) or (2) below applies.

Instructions for Form 990-T  
         
The diocese, province of a religious order, or convention or  
association of churches must file a return reporting the gross  
income and deductions of all its units that aren't separate legal  
entities. These local units can’t file separate returns because  
they aren't separately incorporated. Local units that are  
separately incorporated must file their own returns and can’t be  
included with any other entity except for a title holding company.  
See Consolidated Returns, earlier.

Proxy Tax  
Line 3. To pay the section 6033(e)(2) proxy tax on  
Section 199A Deduction  
nondeductible lobbying and political expenditures, enter the  
proxy tax on Part II, line 3, and attach a statement showing the  
computation.  
For trust filers only. If you are a trust filing Form 990-T and  
have unrelated business income, you may have Qualified  
Business Income (QBI) and may be allowed a QBI deduction  
under section 199A.  
Refer to the instructions for Form 8995, or Form 8995-A, (as  
applicable) to determine whether you meet the requirements for  
the QBI deduction and how to complete the applicable form.  
Exempt organizations, except section 501(c)(3) and certain  
other organizations, must include certain information regarding  
lobbying expenditures on Form 990. In addition, organizations  
may have to provide notices to members regarding their share of  
dues to which the expenditures are allocable. See the  
Instructions for Form 990 and Rev. Proc. 98-19, 1998-1 C.B. 547,  
for exceptions.  
If the organization elects not to provide the notices described  
earlier, it must pay the proxy tax described in section 6033(e)(2).  
If the organization doesn’t include the entire amount of allocable  
dues in the notices, it may have to pay the proxy tax. This tax  
isn't applicable to section 501(c)(3) organizations. Figure the  
proxy tax by multiplying the aggregate amount not included in  
the notices described earlier by 21%. No deductions are  
allowed.  
Line 9. For purposes of calculating the QBI deduction, the  
taxable income before the QBI deduction is the amount reported  
on Part I, line 7, minus the amount reported on Part I, line 8.  
Note. For tax years beginning after 2017, the organization  
determines the unrelated business income separately for each  
unrelated trade or business, and the income for an unrelated  
trade or business can’t be less than zero. Since a loss from an  
unrelated trade or business isn’t included in the UBTI for the tax  
year due to application of section 512(a)(6), when calculating  
QBI, omit items of income, gain, deduction, and loss from any  
unrelated trade or business that operated at a loss. A loss from  
an unrelated trade or business will be carried forward to future  
years when the trust has income (or gain that is subject to  
unrelated business income tax) from the same unrelated trade or  
business and will be used in those years in calculating the QBI.  
Additionally, W-2 wages and unadjusted basis immediately after  
the acquisition (UBIA) of qualified property from an unrelated  
trade or business that operated at a loss for the current tax year  
aren’t used in calculating the limitation on QBI for taxpayers over  
the threshold.  
Other Tax Amounts  
Line 4. Part II, line 4, is intended to capture any positive tax  
amount that doesn’t have a specific line. An MeF (Internet filing)  
dependency (attachment) captures the detail. Use line 4 to  
report tax amounts not reported on a specific line in Part II  
(excluding tax deferred under section 1294, which is included on  
Part III, line 4).  
Use this line to report the base erosion minimum tax amount  
under section 59A from Form 8991, Part IV, line 5e. Section 59A  
applies to base erosion payments paid or accrued in tax years  
beginning after 2017. See the Instructions for Form 8991 to  
determine if the organization is an applicable taxpayer under  
section 59A(e), and, if the organization is an applicable taxpayer,  
to determine the base erosion minimum tax amount. Enter the  
base erosion minimum tax amount on Part II, line 4.  
Part II. Tax Computation

Trusts  
Line 2. Trusts exempt under section 501(a), which otherwise  
would be subject to subchapter J (estates, trusts, etc.), are taxed  
at trust rates. This rule also applies to employees' trusts that  
qualify under section 401(a). Most trusts figure the tax on the  
UBTI amount on Part I, line 11, using the Tax Rate Schedule for  
Trusts, below. If the tax rate schedule is used, enter the tax on  
Part II, line 2, and check the “Tax rate schedule” box. If the trust  
is eligible for the rates on net capital gains and qualified  
dividends, complete Schedule D (Form 1041) and enter on Part  
II, line 2, the tax from Schedule D (Form 1041). Check the

Trusts. The return must be signed and dated by the individual  
fiduciary, or by the authorized officer of the trust receiving or  
having custody or control and management of the income of the  
trust. If two or more individuals act jointly as fiduciaries, any one  
of them may sign.  
Special rule for IRA trusts. A trustee of IRA trusts may use  
a facsimile signature if all of the following conditions are met.  
General Instructions — Schedule A  
(Form 990-T)  
Purpose of the Schedule  
Each group of returns sent to the IRS must be accompanied  
by a letter signed by the person authorized to sign the returns  
declaring, under penalties of perjury, that the facsimile signature  
appearing on the returns is the signature adopted by that person  
to sign the returns filed and that the signature was affixed to the  
returns by that person or at that person's direction.  
Complete a separate Schedule A to report income and allowable  
deductions for each separate unrelated trade or business.  
Separate Trades or Businesses  
The letter must also list each return by the name and EIN of  
An exempt organization may engage in more than one unrelated  
trade or business. Prior to the enactment of section 512(a)(6), an  
exempt organization deriving gross income from the regular  
conduct of two or more unrelated trades or businesses  
calculated UBTI by determining its aggregate gross income from  
all such unrelated trades or businesses and reducing that  
amount by the aggregate deductions allowed with respect to all  
such unrelated trades or businesses. However, section 512(a)(6)  
changed this calculation for exempt organizations with more than  
one unrelated trade or businesses so that, in the case of any  
exempt organization with more than one unrelated trade or  
business:  
the IRA trust.  
After the facsimile signature is affixed, no entries on the return  
may be altered other than to correct discernible arithmetic errors.  
A manually signed copy (of the letter submitted to the IRS with  
the returns and a record of any arithmetic errors corrected) must  
be retained on behalf of the IRA trusts listed in the letter and it  
must be available for inspection by the IRS.  
Paid preparer. If an officer of the organization filled in its return,  
the paid preparer's space should remain blank. Anyone who  
prepares the return but doesn’t charge the organization should  
not sign the return. Certain others who prepare the return should  
not sign. For example, a regular, full-time employee of the  
organization, such as a clerk, secretary, etc., should not sign.  
UBTI, including for purposes of determining any NOL  
deduction, shall be computed separately with respect to each  
trade or business and without regard to section 512(b)(12)  
(allowing a specific deduction of $1,000);  
Generally, anyone who is paid to prepare the organization's  
tax return must sign it and fill in the Paid Preparer Use Only area.  
The UBTI of such exempt organization shall be the sum of the  
The paid preparer must complete the required preparer  
UBTI so computed with respect to each trade or business, less a  
specific deduction under section 512(b)(12); and  
information and do the following.  
Sign the return in the space provided for the preparer's  
For purposes of section 512(a)(6)(B), UBTI with respect to

any such trade or business shall not be less than zero.  
Give a copy of the return to the organization.  
Thus, under section 512(a)(6), an exempt organization may  
not aggregate income and deductions from all unrelated trades  
or businesses when calculating UBTI.  
Note. A paid preparer may sign original returns, amended  
returns, or requests for filing extensions by rubber stamp,  
mechanical device, or computer software program. Also,  
facsimile signatures are authorized.  
An organization determines whether it regularly carries on  
one or more unrelated trades or businesses by applying sections  
511 through 514. Identify each separate trade or business using  
the first two digits of the NAICS two-digit code that most  
accurately describes the unrelated trade or business based on  
the more specific NAICS code, such as at the six-digit level.  
Identify activities in the nature of investments, which aren’t  
described in NAICS, using the appropriate business activity  
code described under Non-NAICS Business Activity Codes,  
later.  
Paid preparer authorization. If the organization wants to allow  
the IRS to discuss this tax return with the paid preparer who  
signed it, check the “Yes” box in the signature area of the return.  
This authorization applies only to the individual whose signature  
appears in the Paid Preparer Use Only section of its return. It  
doesn’t apply to the firm, if any, shown in that section.  
If the “Yes” box is checked, the organization is authorizing the  
IRS to call the paid preparer to:  
Give the IRS any information that is missing from its return;  
Call the IRS for information about the processing of its return  
or the status of its refund or payment(s); and  
An organization will use each NAICS two-digit code only  
once. For example, a hospital organization that operates several  
hospital facilities that include pharmacies that sell goods to the  
general public would include all the pharmacies under the  
NAICS two-digit code for retail trade, regardless of whether the  
hospital organization keeps separate books and records for each  
pharmacy.  
Respond to certain IRS notices that the organization has  
shared with the preparer about a math error, offsets, and return  
preparation. The notices won't be sent to the preparer.  
The organization isn't authorizing the paid preparer to receive  
any refund check, bind the organization to anything (including  
any additional tax liability), or otherwise represent the  
organization before the IRS. If the organization wants to expand  
the paid preparer's authorization, see Pub. 947, Practice Before  
the IRS and Power of Attorney.  
Once a two-digit NAICS code or business activity code is  
used for an unrelated trade or business, you should continue to  
use that same code in subsequent tax years. If it is necessary to  
14  
Instructions for Form 990-T  
       
change the two-digit NAICS code or business activity code  
previously used for an unrelated trade or business, you must  
report the change in a statement attached to the Schedule A on  
which the activities are reported. The statement should include  
(1) the two-digit NAICS code or business activity code used in  
the previous tax year; (2) the two-digit NAICS code or business  
activity code used this year and, if filing more than one

relationship to the carrying on of the unrelated trade or business  
generating the gross income. See Regulations section  
1.512(a)-1(a). Expenses, depreciation, and similar items  
attributable solely to the conduct of an unrelated trade or  
business are proximately and primarily related to that trade or  
business and qualify to reduce income from such trade or  
business under section 512(a)(1) to the extent such items meet  
the requirements of section 162 (trade or business expenses),  
section 167 (depreciation), and other relevant provisions. To the  
extent that an exempt organization may have items of deduction  
that are shared between an exempt activity and an unrelated  
trade or business, Regulations section 1.512(a)-1(c) provides  
special rules for allocating such expenses. For example, if  
facilities are used both to carry on exempt activities and to  
conduct unrelated trade or business activities, then expenses,  
depreciation, and similar items attributable to such facilities must  
be allocated between the two uses on a reasonable basis. See  
Regulations section 1.512(a)-1(c). The allocation issues under  
section 512(a)(1) are also relevant under section 512(a)(6)  
because an exempt organization with more than one unrelated

unrelated trades or businesses.  
Member income of mutual or cooperative electric compa-  
nies. Income of a mutual or cooperative electric company  
described in section 501(c)(12), which is treated as member  
income under subparagraph (H) of that section, is excluded from  
UBTI.  
The allocation of expenses, depreciation, and similar items  
using an unadjusted gross-to-gross method is not reasonable if  
the cost of providing the good or service is substantially the  
same but the price charged differs between related and  
unrelated activities.  
Income from qualifying shipping activities. The  
organization's gross income doesn’t include income from  
qualifying shipping activities (as defined in section 1356) if the  
organization makes an election under section 1354 on a timely  
filed return (including extensions) to be taxed on its notional  
shipping income (as defined in section 1353) at the highest  
corporate rate. If the election is made, the organization generally  
may not claim any loss, deduction, or credit with respect to  
qualifying shipping activities. An organization making this  
election may also elect to defer gain on the disposition of a  
qualifying vessel under section 1359. Use Form 8902 to figure  
the tax. Include the alternative tax on Form 990-T, Part III, line 3e.

How to report income received from a payment  
card and third-party network transaction. An  
organization that receives a Form 1099-K reporting a  
Passive loss and at-risk limitations. Under section 469,  
certain taxpayers, including certain tax-exempt organizations,  
may not deduct a passive activity loss (PAL). Such tax-exempt  
organizations (“affected tax-exempt organizations”) include a  
trust (such as a trust described in section 501(c), a trust  
described in section 401(a), or an IRA), and a corporation if at  
any time during the last half of its tax year more than 50% in  
value of the outstanding stock of the corporation is owned,  
directly or indirectly, by or for not more than five organizations  
that are private foundations under section 509(a) or are  
described in section 401(a) or 501(c)(17) (for example, a stock  
corporation described in section 501(c)(2) with a 401(a) parent  
or private foundation parent).  
A PAL occurs when total losses (including prior-year  
unallowed losses) from all the organization’s passive activities  
exceed the total income from all its passive activities. Generally,  
passive activities include (1) trade or business activities in which  
the organization didn’t materially participate for the tax year; and  
(2) rental activities, regardless of your participation. If the  
organization has income or loss from a passive activity, several  
lines on Form 990-T and Schedule A (Form 990-T) may be  
affected by these rules.  
!
CAUTION  
“gross amount” received from payment card and third-party  
network transactions in the tax year should report these amounts  
in the same manner as if the payments weren’t reported on a  
Form 1099-K. There isn’t any one specific line on which to report  
an amount from Form 1099-K; the correct line should be  
determined based on the nature of the payments. Some  
payments received may constitute unrelated business income;  
see the instructions below to determine the appropriate line. For  
instance, if some of the payments are sales income from an  
unrelated business, then those payments would be reported on  
Part I, line 1a. Retain Form 1099-K with your other records.  
Specific Instructions—Schedule A  
(Form 990-T)  
Items A Through E  
Item A. Enter the same name as entered in the heading area of  
Form 990-T.  
PALs can’t be used to offset income from nonpassive  
activities. Passive activity income doesn’t include portfolio  
income. Portfolio income (see Temporary Regulations section  
1.469-2T(c)(3)) is income from a nonpassive activity. Portfolio  
income includes all gross income, other than income derived in  
the ordinary course of a trade or business, that is attributable to  
interest, dividends, annuities, and royalties (by contrast, a bank's  
receipt of interest is in the ordinary course of a trade or business,  
as is a securities dealer's receipt of dividends). Portfolio income  
also includes gain or loss from the disposition of property that  
produces portfolio income or is held for investment (see section  
163(d)(5)). The rule treating portfolio income as not from a  
passive activity doesn’t apply to the extent that income, of a type  
generally regarded as portfolio income, is derived in the ordinary  
course of a trade or business. For example, the business income  
of a bank typically is largely interest. Similarly, a securities  
broker/dealer may earn a substantial portion of the income from  
the business in the form of dividends and gains on sales of  
dividend-bearing instruments. Interest income may also arise in  
the ordinary course of a trade or business with respect to  
installment sales and interest charges on accounts receivable.  
This means that portfolio income may not be reduced by PALs or  
passive activity credits. For example, any portfolio income  
earned by a trust described in section 501(a) that is UBTI (such  
as unrelated debt-financed income) may not be offset by PALs  
from an unrelated trade or business.  
Section 469(k) provides that the passive activity limitations  
must be applied separately to items from each publicly traded  
partnership (PTP). A PTP is a partnership whose interests are  
traded on an established securities market or are readily  
tradable on a secondary market (or its substantial equivalent).  
PALs from a PTP may generally be used only to offset income or  
gain from passive activities of the same PTP. This means that a  
partner in a PTP may not use PALs and passive activity credits  
from a PTP to offset income from other sources, including  
passive activity income from another PTP. Such PALs and  
passive activity credits aren't allowed for the tax year.  
Item B. Enter the same EIN as entered in item D of Form 990-T.  
Item C. On each Schedule A, enter the business activity code  
that best describes the organization's unrelated trade or  
business reported on that Schedule A. Modernized e-File  
requires a 6-digit numerical entry for item C. Unless you are  
using a 6-digit non-NAICS business activity code, you should  
enter the 2 digits of the NAICS code in the first two positions and  
then enter 4 zeros to complete the entry. For example, if the  
2-digit business activity code 45 (for retail trade) best describes  
your unrelated trade or business, enter “450000” in item C. See  
Business Activity Codes, later, for more information about  
business activity codes.

Advance payments. In general, advance payments are  
reported in the year of receipt. To report income from long-term  
contracts, see section 460. For rules that allow a limited deferral  
of advance payments beyond the current tax year, see section  
451(c). Also, see Regulations sections 1.451-8(c), (d), and (e).  
For applicability dates, see Regulations section 1.451-8(h). For  
information on adopting or changing to a permissible method for  
reporting advance payments for services and certain goods by  
an accrual method corporation, see the Instructions for Form  
3115. Also, see Rev. Proc. 2021-34.  
Generally, PALs are subject to other limitations (for example,  
basis and at-risk limitations) before they are subject to the PAL  
limitations. For example, the at-risk rules under section 465  
generally prohibit trusts and corporations that are affected  
tax-exempt organizations from claiming losses from activities in  
excess of the taxpayer’s amount at risk in the activity.  
An affected tax-exempt organization may need to attach Form  
6198 and either Form 8582 or Form 8810. For more information  
on these rules, see Pub. 925, Passive Activity and At-Risk Rules.  
Installment sales. Generally, the installment method cannot be  
used for dealer dispositions of property. A dealer disposition” is  
(a) any disposition of personal property by a person who  
regularly sells or otherwise disposes of personal property of the  
same type on the installment plan, or (b) any disposition of real  
property held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of the  
taxpayer's trade or business.

These restrictions on using the installment method don't  
apply to dispositions of property used or produced in a farming  
business or sales of time-shares and residential lots for which  
the organization elects to pay interest under section 453(l)(3).  
For sales of time-shares and residential lots reported under  
the installment method, the organization's income tax is  
increased by the interest payable under section 453(l)(3).  
An organization that transfers securities it owns for the  
contractual obligation of the borrower to return identical  
securities recognizes no gain or loss on that exchange or on the  
subsequent receipt of identical securities in satisfaction of the  
contractual obligation. To qualify for this treatment, the  
organization must lend the securities under an agreement that  
requires:  
1. The return of identical securities;  
Enter on Schedule A, Part I, line 1a and line 3, the gross profit

Nonaccrual experience method. Accrual method  
organizations aren't required to accrue certain amounts to be  
received from the performance of services that, on the basis of  
their experience, won't be collected, if:  
The services are in the field of health, law, engineering,  
architecture, accounting, actuarial science, performing arts, or  
consulting; or  
If debt-financed property is depreciable or depletable  
property, the provisions of sections 1245, 1250, 1252, 1254, and  
1255 must be considered first.  
The organization's average annual gross receipts for the 3  
prior tax years doesn’t exceed $29 million.  
Example. On January 1, 2022, an exempt educational  
corporation, using $288,000 of borrowed funds, purchased an  
office building for $608,000. The only adjustment to basis was  
$29,902 for depreciation (straight line method under MACRS  
over the 39-year recovery period for nonresidential real  
property). The corporation (section 501(c)(3) organization) sold  
the building on December 31, 2023, for $640,000. At the date of  
sale, the adjusted basis of the building was $578,098 ($608,000  
− $29,902) and the indebtedness remained at $288,000. The  
adjusted basis of the property on the first day of the year of  
disposition was $593,037. The average adjusted basis is  
$585,568 (($593,037 + $578,098) ÷ 2). The debt/basis  
percentage is 49% ($288,000 ÷ $585,568).  
The taxable gain is $30,332 (49% × ($640,000 − $578,098)).  
This is a long-term capital gain. A corporation should enter the  
gain on Schedule D (Form 1120), Part II, line 8. A trust should  
enter the gain on Schedule D (Form 1041), Part II, line 8, if  
applicable. In either scenario (a corporation or a trust), the  
educational organization must attach a statement to Form 990-T,  
in addition to the Schedule D, showing how the gain was figured  
along the lines described in this example, if the details weren’t  
provided with the Schedule D.  
This provision doesn’t apply to any amount if interest is  
required to be paid on the amount or if there is any penalty for  
failure to timely pay the amount. See Regulations section  
1.448-3. Organizations that qualify to use the nonaccrual  
experience method should attach a statement showing total  
gross receipts, amounts not accrued as a result of the  
application of section 448(d)(5), and the net amount accrued.  
Enter the net amount on Schedule A, Part I, line 1a.  
Gain or loss on disposition of certain brownfield property.  
Gain or loss from the qualifying sale, exchange, or other  
disposition of a qualifying brownfield property (as defined in  
section 512(b)(19)(C)), which was acquired by the organization  
after 2004, is excluded from unrelated business taxable income  
and is excepted from the debt-financed rules for such property.  
See sections 512(b)(19) and 514(b)(1)(E).  
Capital Gain Net Income  
Line 4a. Generally, organizations required to file Form 990-T  
(except organizations described in sections 501(c)(7), (9), and  
(17)) aren't taxed on the net gains from the sale, exchange, or  
other disposition of property. However, net capital gains on  
debt-financed property, capital gains on cutting timber, and  
ordinary gains on sections 1245, 1250, 1252, 1254, and 1255  
property are taxed. See Form 4797, Sales of Business Property,  
and its instructions for additional information.  
Also, any capital gain or loss passed through from an S  
corporation or any gain or loss on the disposition of S  
corporation stock by a qualified tax-exempt organization (see S  
Corporations, later) is taxed as a capital gain or loss and  
reported on Part I, line 4.  
Capital gains and losses should be reported by a trust on  
Schedule D (Form 1041), Capital Gains and Losses, and by a  
corporation on Schedule D (Form 1120), Capital Gains and  
Losses (and Form 8949, Sale and Other Dispositions of Capital  
Assets). Schedule D of Form 1041 or Form 1120 (and Form  
8949, if applicable) must be attached to Form 990-T.  
If you deferred a capital gain into a QOF, you must attach  
Schedule D, Form 8949, and Form 8997 to your Form 990-T. You  
will need to annually file Form 8997 until you dispose of the  
investment. See the Instructions for Form 8997.  
Disposition of property received from taxable subsidiary  
and used in unrelated business. A taxable 80%-owned  
subsidiary corporation of one or more tax-exempt entities is  
generally subject to tax on a distribution in liquidation of its  
assets to its exempt parent (or parents). See section 337. The  
assets are treated as if sold at FMV.  
Tax-exempt entities” for this purpose include organizations  
described in sections 501(a), 529, 529A, and 115; charitable  
remainder annuity trusts or unitrusts; U.S. (including states) and  
foreign governments; Indian tribal governments and certain  
corporations; international organizations; and similar non-taxable  
organizations.  
A taxable corporation that transfers substantially all of its  
assets to a tax-exempt entity in a transaction that otherwise  
qualifies for nonrecognition treatment must recognize gain on the  
transaction as if it sold the assets at FMV. However, such a  
transfer isn't taxable if it qualifies as a like-kind exchange under  
section 1031 or an involuntary conversion under section 1033. In  
such a case, the built-in appreciation is preserved in the  
replacement property received in the transaction. A “taxable  
17  
Instructions for Form 990-T  
         
corporation” is any corporation that isn't a tax-exempt entity as  
defined above, including an S corporation.  
or business, and its share of the partnership deductions directly  
connected with the unrelated gross income.  
A corporation that changes status from taxable to tax-exempt  
is generally treated as if it transferred all of its assets to a  
tax-exempt entity immediately before the change in status (thus  
subjecting it to the tax on a deemed sale for FMV). This rule  
doesn’t apply where the taxable corporation becomes exempt  
within 3 years of formation (within 7 years of formation for section  
501(c)(7) organizations), or had previously been exempt and  
within several years (generally a period of 3 years) regains  
exemption, unless the principal purpose of the transactions is to  
avoid the tax on the change in status.  
In the transactions described above, the taxable event is  
deferred for property that the tax-exempt entity immediately uses  
in an unrelated business. If the tax-exempt parent later disposes  
of the property, then any gain (not in excess of the amount not  
recognized) is included in the parent’s UBTI. If there is partial  
use of the assets in unrelated business, then there is partial  
recognition of gain or loss with respect to the assets not so used.  
Property is treated as disposed if the tax-exempt entity no longer  
uses it in an unrelated business.  
S Corporations  
Qualified tax-exempt organizations can be shareholders in an S  
corporation without the S corporation losing its status as an S  
corporation. Qualified tax-exempt organizations that hold stock  
in an S corporation treat their stock interest as an interest in an  
unrelated trade or business. All items of income, loss, or  
deduction that the organization receives as a shareholder of the  
S corporation are taken into account in Schedule A, Part I, line 5,  
in figuring UBTI and not reported on another line of Schedule A  
(Form 990-T) that otherwise would apply, except capital gains  
and losses, which are reported on Schedule A, Part I, line 4.  
Report on Schedule A, Part I, line 4, any gain or loss on the  
disposition of S corporation stock.  
Qualified tax-exempts. A qualified tax-exempt is an  
organization that is described in section 401(a) (qualified stock  
bonus, pension, and profit-sharing plans) or 501(c)(3) and  
exempt from tax under section 501(a).  
Exception. Employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) don't  
follow these S corporation rules if the S corporation stock is an  
employer security, as defined in section 409(l).  
Attach a statement to this return showing the qualified  
tax-exempt's share of all items of income, loss, or deduction.  
Combine the income, loss, and deductions (except for the capital  
gains and losses) on the statement. If you hold stock in more  
than one S corporation, total the combined amounts. Show  
capital gains and losses separately and include them on  
Schedule A, Part I, line 4a.  
Losses on the transfer of assets to a tax-exempt entity are  
disallowed if part of a plan having a principal purpose of  
recognizing losses.  
Net Gain or (Loss)  
Line 4b. Show gains and losses on other than capital assets on

Instructions for Form 990-T  
         
organization may have current income under section 1293 if the  
PFIC is a QEF with respect to the organization. The organization  
may also have current income under section 1296 if it makes a  
section 1296 mark-to-market election with respect to the PFIC  
stock.  
Include on Schedule A, Part I, line 12, the portion of an  
excess distribution (or gain treated as an excess distribution),  
section 1293 inclusion, or section 1296 inclusion that is taxable  
as UBTI. See Form 8621.

2023 employment tax returns (Forms 941, 943, and 944) for  
qualified paid sick and qualified paid family leave under the  
FFCRA and the ARP (both the nonrefundable and refundable  
portions). These amounts must be included in gross income for  
the tax year that includes the last day of the calendar quarter  
with respect to which the credit is allowed.  
Use the amount from Schedule A, Part I, line 13, column (C), in  
the computation of UBTI in Part II.  
Part II. Deductions Not Taken  
Elsewhere  
If the aggregate sum of the amounts on all Schedules A (Form  
990-T), Part I, line 13, column (A), is $10,000 or less, you don't  
have to complete Schedule A, Part II, lines 1 through 14.  
However, you must complete the remainder of Schedule A, Part  
II and include the larger of each total from Schedule A, Part II,  
line 18, or zero, in the computation of the amount reported on  
Part I, line 1, of Form 990-T.  
Note. A credit is available only if the leave was taken sometime  
after March 31, 2020 and before October 1, 2021, and only after  
the qualified leave wages were paid, which might, under certain  
circumstances, not occur until a quarter after September 30,  
2021, including quarters during 2023.  
Organizations described in section 501(c)(19). Enter the  
net income from an insurance business that was not properly set  
aside. These organizations may set aside income from  
payments received for life, sickness, accident, or health  
insurance for members of the organization or their dependents.  
Note. Only expenses directly connected with the unrelated  
trade or business income reported on the Schedule A for that  
particular unrelated trade or business may be deducted on that  
Schedule A (see Directly connected expenses in Appendix A).  
Don't separately include in Schedule A, Part II, any expenses  
that are reported in Schedule A, Parts III through IX, other than  
excess exempt expenses entered on Schedule A, Part II, line 12,  
and excess readership costs entered on Schedule A, Part II,  
line 13. For example, officers' compensation allocable to  
advertising income is reported on Schedule A, Part IX, only and  
shouldn’t be included on Schedule A, Part X, or Schedule A, Part  
II, line 1.  
1. To provide for the payment of insurance benefits.  
2. For a purpose specified in section 170(c)(4) (religious,  
charitable, scientific, literary, educational, etc.).  
3. For administrative costs directly connected with benefits  
described in (1) and (2) above.  
Amounts set aside and used for purposes other than those in  
(1), (2), or (3) above must be included in UBTI for the tax year if  
they were previously excluded from taxable income.  
Any amount spent for a purpose described in section 170(c)  
(4) is first considered paid from funds earned by the organization  
from insurance activities if the income isn't used for the  
insurance activities.  
Limitations on Deductions  
The following items discuss certain areas in which the deduction  
may be limited.  
Expenditures for lobbying aren't considered section 170(c)(4)  
Activities Lacking a Profit Motive  
expenses.  
In some instances, it is necessary to report income whether or  
not it comes from a trade or business (including interest,  
annuities, royalties, and rents from controlled organizations, and  
income of a section 501(c)(7), (9), or (17) organization other than  
exempt function income). If income is attributable to an activity  
lacking a profit motive, then a net loss from the activity can’t be  
claimed on Form 990-T. Therefore, in Part I, column (B), and Part  
II, the total of deductions for expenses directly connected with  
income from an activity lacking a profit motive is limited to the  
amount of that income. Generally, an activity lacking a profit  
motive is one that isn't conducted for the purpose of producing a  
profit or one that has consistently produced losses when both  
direct and indirect expenses are taken into account.  
Income from property financed with qualified 501(c)(3)  
bonds. If any part of the property is used in a trade or business  
of any person other than a section 501(c)(3) organization or a  
governmental unit, and such use isn't consistent with the  
requirement for qualified 501(c)(3) bonds under section 145, the  
section 501(c)(3) organization is considered to have received  
unrelated business income in the amount of the greater of the  
actual rental income or the fair rental value of the property for the  
period it is used. No deduction is allowed for interest on the  
private activity bond. Report the greater of the actual rent or the  
fair rental value on Schedule A, Part I, line 12. Report allowable  
deductions on Schedule A, Part II. See sections 150(b)(3) and  
(c).  
PFIC shareholders. If the organization is a direct or indirect  
shareholder of a PFIC within the meaning of section 1297, it may  
have income tax consequences under section 1291 upon the  
disposition of the PFIC stock or on the receipt of an excess  
distribution from the PFIC, described in section 1291(a). The  
Deductions Related to Property Leased to  
Tax-Exempt Entities  
For property leased to a governmental or other tax-exempt entity,  
or in the case of property acquired after March 12, 2004, that is  
19  
Instructions for Form 990-T  
             
treated as tax-exempt-use property other than by reason of a  
lease, the organization may not claim deductions related to the  
property when they exceed the organization's income from the  
lease payments. Amounts disallowed may be carried over to the  
next year and treated as a deduction concerning the property.  
See section 470.  
Exceptions. Section 263A doesn’t apply to:  
Personal property acquired for resale if the organization's  
average annual gross receipts for the 3 prior tax years were $10  
million or less;  
Timber;  
Most property produced under long-term contract;  
Certain property produced in a farming business;  
Research and experimental costs under section 174;  
Geological and geophysical costs amortized under section  
Transactions Between Related Taxpayers  
167(h);  
Generally, an accrual basis taxpayer may deduct business  
expenses and interest owed to a related party only in the year  
the payment is included in the income of the related party. See  
sections 163(e)(3) and 267 for limitations on deductions for  
unpaid interest and expenses.  
Intangible drilling costs for oil, gas, and geothermal property;  
Mining exploration and development costs; and  
Inventory of an organization that accounts for inventories in  
the same manner as materials and supplies that aren't  
incidental. See Schedule A, Part III, Cost of Goods Sold, later.  
See Regulations sections 1.263A-1 through 1.263A-3.  
Preference Items  
Travel, Meals, and Entertainment  
Corporations may be required to adjust deductions for depletion  
of iron ore and coal, intangible drilling and exploration and  
development costs, and the amortizable basis of pollution control  
facilities. See section 291 to determine the amount of the  
adjustment.  
Subject to the limitations and restrictions discussed below, an  
organization can deduct ordinary and necessary travel, meals,  
and non-entertainment expenses paid or incurred in its trade or  
business. Generally, entertainment expenses, membership  
dues, and facilities used in connection with these activities can’t  
be deducted. In addition, no deduction is generally allowed for  
qualified transportation fringe benefits. Special rules apply to  
deductions for gifts, luxury water travel, and convention  
expenses. See section 274 and Pub. 463, Travel, Gift, and Car  
Expenses.  
Section 263A Uniform Capitalization Rules  
These rules require organizations to capitalize or include as  
inventory cost certain costs incurred in connection with the  
following.  
Qualified transportation fringes (QTFs). Generally, no  
deduction is allowed under section 274(a)(4) for QTFs provided  
by employers to their employees. QTFs are defined in section  
132(f)(1) and include:  
The production of real property and tangible personal property  
held in inventory or held for sale in the ordinary course of  
business.  
Real property or personal property held in inventory (tangible  
Transportation in a commuter highway vehicle between the  
and intangible) acquired for resale.  
employee's residence and place of employment,  
The production of real property and tangible personal property  
Any transit pass, and  
Qualified parking.  
See section 274, Pub. 15-B, and Pub. 535 for details.  
produced by the organization for use in its trade or business or in  
an activity engaged in for profit.  
Tangible personal property produced by an organization  
includes a film, sound recording, videotape, book, or similar  
property.  
Travel. The organization can’t deduct travel expenses of any  
individual accompanying an organization's officer or employee,  
including a spouse or dependent of the officer or employee,  
unless:  
Indirect expenses. Organizations subject to the section 263A  
uniform capitalization rules are required to capitalize direct costs  
and an allocable part of most indirect costs (including taxes) that  
benefit the assets produced or acquired for resale or are  
incurred by reason of the performance of production or resale  
activities.  
That individual is an employee of the organization, and  
Their travel is for a bona fide business purpose and would  
otherwise be deductible by that individual.  
Meals. Generally, the organization can deduct only 50% of the  
amount otherwise allowable for non-entertainment-related meal  
expenses paid or incurred in an unrelated trade or business.  
Meals not separately stated from entertainment are generally not  
deductible. In addition (subject to exceptions under section  
274(k)(2)):  
For inventory, some of the indirect expenses that must be  
capitalized are:  
Administration expenses;  
Taxes;  
Depreciation;  
Meals mustn’t be lavish or extravagant, and  
Insurance;  
An employee of the organization must be present at the meal.  
Compensation paid to officers attributable to services;  
Rework labor; and  
Membership dues. The organization can deduct amounts paid  
or incurred for membership dues in civic or public service  
organizations, professional organizations (such as bar and  
medical associations), business leagues, trade associations,  
chambers of commerce, boards of trade, and real estate boards.  
However, no deduction is allowed if a principal purpose of the  
organization is to entertain or provide entertainment facilities for  
members or their guests. In addition, organizations can’t deduct  
membership dues in any club organized for business, pleasure,  
recreation, or other social purpose. This includes country clubs,  
golf and athletic clubs, airline and hotel clubs, and clubs  
operated to provide meals under conditions favorable to  
business discussion.  
Contributions to pension, stock bonus, and certain  
profit-sharing, annuity, or deferred compensation plans.  
Regulations section 1.263A-1(e)(3) specifies other indirect  
costs that relate to production or resale activities that must be  
capitalized and those that may be currently deductible.  
Interest expense. Interest expense paid or incurred during the  
production period of designated property must be capitalized  
and is governed by special rules. See Regulations section  
1.263A-8 through 1.263A-15.  
When are section 263A capitalized costs deductible? The  
costs required to be capitalized under section 263A aren't  
deductible until the property (to which the costs relate) is sold,  
used, or otherwise disposed of by the organization.  
20  
Instructions for Form 990-T  
     
that don't add to the value or appreciably prolong the life of the  
property.  
Entertainment facilities. The organization can’t deduct an  
expense paid or incurred for use of a facility (such as a yacht or  
hunting lodge) for an activity usually considered entertainment,  
amusement, or recreation.  
Bad Debts  
Line 4. Enter the total receivables from an unrelated trade or  
business that were previously included in taxable income and  
that became worthless in whole or in part during the tax year.  
Amounts treated as compensation. The organization may  
generally be able to deduct otherwise non-deductible travel,  
meals, and entertainment expenses if the amounts are treated  
as compensation and reported on Form W-2 for an employee or  
Form 1099-NEC for an independent contractor and if the total  
amount of such compensation isn't unreasonable.  
Interest  
Line 5. Attach a separate statement listing the interest being  
claimed on this line.  
Reducing Certain Expenses for Which Credits  
Are Allowable  
Interest allocation. If the proceeds of a loan were used for  
more than one purpose (for example, to purchase a portfolio  
investment and to acquire an interest in a passive activity), an  
interest allocation must be made. See Temporary Regulations  
section 1.163-8T for the interest allocation rules.  
If the organization claims certain credits, it may need to reduce  
the otherwise allowable deductions for expenses used to figure  
the credit. This applies to credits such as the following.  
Disabled access credit.  
Tax-exempt interest. Don't include interest on indebtedness  
incurred or continued to purchase or carry obligations on which  
the interest income is totally exempt from income tax. For  
exceptions, see section 265(b).  
Employer credit for social security and Medicare taxes paid on  
certain employee tips.  
Credit for employer-provided childcare facilities and services.  
Orphan drug credit.  
Credit for small employer pension plan startup costs.  
Employer credit for paid family and medical leave.  
Prepaid interest. Generally, a cash basis taxpayer can’t deduct  
prepaid interest allocable to years following the current tax year,  
for example, during the tax year a cash basis taxpayer prepaid  
interest on a loan. The taxpayer can deduct only that part of the  
prepaid interest that was for the use of the loaned funds during  
the tax year, not for the use of the loaned funds during the  
subsequent years.  
If the organization has any of these credits, figure each  
current-year credit before figuring the deduction for expenses on  
which the credit is based.  
Business Startup and Organizational Costs  
Straddle interest. Generally, the interest and carrying charges  
on straddles can’t be deducted and must be capitalized. See  
section 263(g).  
For business startup and organizational costs paid or incurred  
after September 8, 2008, an organization can deduct up to  
$5,000 of such costs in the year it begins business (unless the  
organization elects to capitalize the full amount of such costs).  
The $5,000 deduction is reduced (but not below zero) by the  
amount the total costs exceed $50,000. If the total costs are  
$55,000 or more, the deduction is reduced to zero. Any costs not  
deducted must be amortized, as explained below.  
Original issue discount. See section 163(e)(5) for special  
rules for the disqualified portion of original issue discount on a  
high-yield discount obligation.  
Interest on certain underpayments of tax. Don't deduct  
interest paid or incurred on any portion of an underpayment of  
tax that is attributable to an understatement arising from an  
undisclosed listed transaction or an undisclosed reportable  
avoidance transaction (other than a listed transaction) entered  
into in tax years beginning after October 22, 2004.  
Note. For startup and organizational costs paid or incurred after  
September 8, 2008, the organization isn't required to attach a  
statement or specifically identify the amount deducted for the  
election under sections 195(b) and 248(a) to be effective. It is a  
deemed election. Whether an organization deducts a portion of  
its startup and organizational costs under Regulations sections  
1.195-1 and 1.248-1 or elects to amortize the full amount of such  
costs, its election is irrevocable. For startup and organizational  
costs paid or incurred after October 22, 2004, and before  
September 9, 2008, an organization must generally attach the  
statement required by Regulations sections 1.195-1(b) and  
1.248-1(c) to make the election to deduct a portion of such costs  
(as explained above). This election is irrevocable. However, an  
organization can apply the provisions of these regulations to  
costs paid or incurred after October 22, 2004.  
Interest allocable to the production of designated property.  
Don't deduct interest on debt allocable to the production of  
designated property. Interest that is allocable to such property  
produced by an organization for its own use or for sale must be  
capitalized. An organization must also capitalize any interest on  
debt allocable to an asset used to produce the earlier property.  
See section 263A(f) and Regulations sections 1.263A-8 through  
1.263A-15.  
Interest on below-market loans. See section 7872 for special  
rules regarding the deductibility of foregone interest on certain  
below-market-rate loans.  
Amortization. Any costs not deducted under the above rules  
must be amortized ratably over the 180-month period, beginning  
with the month the organization begins business. See the  
Instructions for Form 4562, Depreciation and Amortization, for  
details. If the association elected to amortize business startup  
and organizational costs paid or incurred before October 23,  
2004, over a period of 60 months or more, it must continue to  
amortize those costs over the elected amortization period.  
Report the deductible amount of these costs and any  
Limitation on deduction of business interest. Business  
interest expense is limited to the sum of business interest  
income, 30% of the adjusted taxable income, and floor plan  
financing interest. Business interest expense includes any  
interest paid or accrued on indebtedness properly allocable to  
an unrelated trade or business. A taxpayer, other than a tax  
shelter, that meets the gross receipts test isn’t required to limit  
business interest expense under section 163(j). A taxpayer  
meets the gross receipts test if the taxpayer has average annual  
gross receipts that are taken into account in determining its UBTI  
of $29 million or less for the 3 prior tax years. Gross receipts  
include the aggregate gross receipts from all persons treated as

the NOL carryover from other tax years attributable to that trade  
or business, but don't enter more than the amount shown on  
Schedule A, Part II, line 16. An organization that claims the  
deduction with respect to any NOL carried through tax years for  
which the organization was not required to file Form 990-T must  
show the amount of the deduction and how it was computed, but  
the organization need not file a Form 990-T in order to preserve  
an NOL carryover. See Regulations section 1.512(a)-6(h)(3) for

Line 10. Employers who maintain pension, profit-sharing, or  
other funded deferred compensation plans are generally  
required to file Form 5500. This requirement applies whether or  
not the plan is qualified under the Code and whether or not a  
deduction is claimed for the current tax year. Section 6652(e)

However, the suspended NOLs may be used if that previous  
separate unrelated trade or business is later resumed or if a new  
unrelated trade or business that is accurately identified using the  
same NAICS 2-digit code as the previous separate unrelated  
trade or business is commenced or acquired in a future tax year.  
The amount of an NOL carryover is determined under section  
172. See Regulations section 1.512(b)-1(e) and, for  
organizations with more than one unrelated trade or business,  
Regulations section 1.512(a)-6(h). Attach a statement showing  
the computation of the NOL deduction.  
Employee Benefit Programs

offering of goods during a period ending not later than 30 days  
after inventory date.  
If this is the first year the Last-in First-out (LIFO) inventory  
method was either adopted or extended to inventory goods not  
previously valued under the LIFO method provided in section  
472, attach Form 970, Application To Use LIFO Inventory  
Method, or a statement with the information required by Form  
970.  
If the organization changed or extended its inventory method  
to LIFO and had to write up the opening inventory to cost in the  
year of election, report the effect of this write-up as other income  
(Part I, line 12) proportionately over a 3-year period that begins  
in the tax year the LIFO election was made (section 472(d)).  
Part III. Cost of Goods Sold  
Generally, inventories are required at the beginning and end of  
each tax year if the production, purchase, or sale of merchandise  
is an income-producing factor. See Regulations section 1.471-1.  
However, if the organization is a qualifying taxpayer or a  
qualifying small business taxpayer, it may adopt or change its  
accounting method to account for inventoriable items in the  
same manner as materials and supplies that aren't incidental  
(unless its business is a tax shelter (as defined in section 448(d)  
(3)).  
A qualifying taxpayer is a taxpayer that, for each prior tax year  
ending after December 16, 1998, has average annual gross  
receipts of $1 million or less for the 3-tax-year period ending with  
that prior tax year.  
Line 1. If the organization is changing its method of accounting  
to no longer account for inventories, it must refigure last year's  
closing inventory using the new method of accounting and enter  
the result on line 1. If there is a difference between last year's  
closing inventory and the refigured amount, attach an  
A qualifying small business taxpayer is a taxpayer (a) that has  
average annual gross receipts of $29 million or less for the  
3-tax-year period ending with that prior tax year, and (b) whose  
principal business activity isn't an ineligible activity.  
explanation and take it into account when figuring the  
organization's section 481(a) adjustment (explained earlier).  
Line 4. An entry is required on this line only for organizations  
that have elected a simplified method of accounting.  
Under this accounting method, inventory cost for raw  
materials purchased for use in producing finished goods and  
merchandise purchased for resale are deductible in the year the  
finished goods or merchandise are sold (but not before the year  
the organization paid for the raw materials or merchandise, if it is  
also using the cash method). For additional guidance on this  
method of accounting for inventoriable items, see Pub. 538 and  
the Instructions for Form 3115.  
For organizations that have elected the simplified production  
method, additional section 263A costs are generally those costs,  
other than interest, that are now required to be capitalized under  
section 263A but that weren’t capitalized under the  
organization's method of accounting immediately prior to the  
effective date of section 263A. For details, see Regulations  
section 1.263A-2(b).  
For organizations that have elected the simplified resale  
method, additional section 263A costs are generally those costs  
incurred with respect to the following categories.  
Enter amounts paid for all raw materials and merchandise  
during the tax year on line 2. The amount the organization can  
deduct for the tax year is figured on Schedule A, Part III, line 8.  
Off-site storage or warehousing.  
Purchasing.  
All filers not using the cash method of accounting should see  
Section 263A Uniform Capitalization Rules under Limitations on  
Deductions, earlier, before completing Schedule A. The  
instructions for lines 1, 4, 5, and 7, later, apply to Part III earlier,  
before completing Schedule A.  
Handling, such as processing, assembling, repackaging, and  
transporting.  
General and administrative costs (mixed service costs).  
For details, see Regulations section 1.263A-3(d).  
Inventory valuation methods. Inventories can be valued at:  
Enter on Schedule A, Part III, line 4, the balance of section  
1. Cost, as described in Regulations section 1.471-3,  
263A costs paid or incurred during the tax year not included on  
Schedule A, Part III, lines 2 and 3.  
2. Lower of cost or market, as described in Regulations  
section 1.471-4, or  
Line 5. Enter on Schedule A, Part III, line 5, any costs paid or  
incurred during the tax year not entered on Schedule A, Part III,  
lines 2 through 4. Attach a statement describing the other costs.  
3. Any other method approved by the IRS that conforms to  
the requirements of the applicable regulations cited below.  
Line 7. See Regulations sections 1.263A-1 through 1.263A-3  
for details on figuring the amount of additional section 263A  
costs to be included in ending inventory.  
If the organization accounts for inventories in the same  
manner as materials and supplies that aren't incidental, enter on  
Schedule A, Part III, line 7, the portion of its raw materials and  
merchandise purchased for resale that are included on  
Schedule A, Part III, line 6, and weren’t sold during the year.  
However, if the organization is using the cash method of  
accounting, it is required to use cost.  
A small producer is an organization whose average annual  
gross receipts are $1 million or less. Small producers that  
account for inventories in the same manner as materials and  
supplies that aren't incidental may currently deduct expenditures  
for direct labor and all indirect costs that would otherwise be  
included in inventory costs.  
The average cost (rolling average) method of valuing  
inventories generally doesn’t conform to the requirement of the  
regulations. See Rev. Rul. 71-234, 1971-1 C.B. 148.  
Organizations that use erroneous valuation methods must  
change to a method permitted for federal income tax purposes.  
File Form 3115 to make this change.  
Part IV. Rent Income  
Section 501(c)(7), (9), and (17) organizations, enter gross rents  
on Schedule A, Part I, line 6, and applicable expenses on  
Schedule A, Part II, lines 1 through 14. All rents except those that  
are exempt function income must be included.  
All organizations that have applicable rent income, other than  
section 501(c)(7), (9), and (17) organizations, should complete  
Schedule A, Part IV. For organizations other than section 501(c)  
(7), (9), and (17) organizations, only the following rents are  
taxable on Schedule A, Part I, line 6.  
Inventory may be valued below cost when the merchandise is  
unsalable at normal prices or unusable in the normal way  
because the goods are subnormal because of damage,  
imperfections, shop wear, etc., within the meaning of

debt-financed property. Securities purchased on margin are  
considered debt-financed property if the liability incurred in  
purchasing them remains outstanding.  
A redetermination of the percentage of rent for personal  
property is required when either:  
1. There is an increase of 100% or more by the placing of  
additional or substitute personal property in service, or  
2. There is a modification of the lease that changes the rent  
charged. Rents from both real and personal property not taxable  
on Schedule A, Part I, line 6, may be taxable on Schedule A, Part  
I, line 8, if the income is from a controlled organization or on  
Schedule A, Part I, line 7, if the property is debt-financed.  
Taxability of the rent must be considered in the following order.  
Acquisition indebtedness is the outstanding amount of  
principal debt incurred by the organization to acquire or improve  
the property. Acquisition indebtedness also includes  
indebtedness incurred:  
1. Before the property was acquired or improved, if the  
indebtedness would not have been incurred but for such  
acquisition or improvement of the property; or  
2. After the property was acquired or improved, if the  
indebtedness would not have been incurred but for such  
acquisition or improvement and the incurrence of such  
indebtedness was reasonably foreseeable at the time of such  
acquisition or improvement. See Regulations section  
1.514(c)-1(a).  
a. Rents not taxed on Schedule A, Part I, line 6, may be  
taxed on Schedule A, Part I, line 8.  
b. Rents not taxed on Schedule A, Part I, line 6 or line 8, may  
be taxed on Schedule A, Part I, line 7.  
Rents from personal property not leased with real property  
should be reported on Schedule A, Part I, line 12.  
See Form 8582 (for trusts) or Form 8810 (for corporations)  
and section 469 for limitations on losses from rental activities.  
With certain exceptions, acquisition indebtedness doesn’t  
include debt incurred by the following.  
Description of Property  
Line 1. Check the box next to the property description if the  
property is used both to carry on exempt activities and to  
conduct unrelated trade or business activities.  
1. A qualified (section 401) trust in acquiring or improving  
real property. See section 514(c)(9).

years beginning after December 31, 1986.  
Part V. Unrelated Debt-Financed  
Income  
4. An obligation, to the extent that it is insured by the Federal  
Housing Administration, to finance the purchase, rehabilitation,  
or construction of housing for low and moderate income  
persons, or indebtedness incurred by a small business  
investment company licensed after October 22, 2004, under the  
Small Business Investment Act of 1958 if such indebtedness is  
evidenced by a debenture issued by such company under  
section 303(a) of that Act, and held or guaranteed by the Small  
Business Administration (see section 514(c)(6)(B) for  
limitations).  
Use Schedule A, Part V, to compute unrelated debt-financed  
income described in sections 512(b)(4) and 514 from  
debt-financed property only to the extent that the income doesn’t  
constitute income from the conduct of an unrelated trade or  
business and isn't specifically taxable under other provisions of  
the Code, such as taxable rents from personal property leased  
with real property reportable on Schedule A, Part IV (and  
Schedule A, Part I, line 6), or taxable interest, annuities,  
royalties, and rents from a controlled entity reportable on  
Schedule A, Part VI (and Schedule A, Part I, line 8). See  
Regulations section 1.514(b)-1(b)(2). Refer to Regulations  
section 1.512(a)-6 when reporting income from one or more  
debt-financed properties and also for rules permitting the  
aggregation of unrelated debt-financed income with other UBTI  
in certain circumstances. Gain or loss from the sale or  
disposition of debt-financed property is reported on Schedule A,  
Part I, line 4.  
5. A retirement income account described in section 403(b)  
(9) in acquiring or improving real property in tax years beginning  
on or after August 17, 2006.  
See Pub. 598 for additional exceptions to the rules for  
debt-financed property.  
Example 1. An exempt organization owns a four-story  
building. Two floors are used for an exempt purpose and two  
floors are rented (as an unrelated trade or business) for $10,000.  
Expenses are $1,000 for depreciation and $5,000 for other  
expenses that relate to the entire building. The average  
acquisition indebtedness is $6,000, and the average adjusted  
basis is $10,000. Both apply to the entire building.  
Section 501(c)(7), (9), and (17) organizations should report  
income from debt-financed property on Schedule A, Part VII  
(and Schedule A, Part I, line 9).  
Example 2. Assume the same facts as in Example 1, except  
the entire building is rented out as an unrelated trade or business  
for $20,000. To complete Schedule A, Part V, for this example,  
enter $20,000 on Schedule A, Part V, line 2; $1,000 and $5,000  
on Schedule A, Part V, lines 3(a) and 3(b), respectively (since  
the entire amount is for debt-financed property); $6,000 and  
When a debt-financed property is held for exempt purposes  
and other purposes, the organization must allocate the basis,  
debt, income, and deductions among the purposes for which the  
property is held. Don't include on Schedule A, Part V, amounts  
allocated to exempt purposes.

Instructions for Form 990-T  
   
$10,000 on Schedule A, Part V, lines 4 and 5 (since the entire  
amount is for debt-financed property); 60% on Schedule A, Part  
V, line 6; $12,000 on Schedule A, Part V, line 7; and $3,600 on  
Schedule A, Part V, line 9.  
Line 6. Divide each property's average acquisition  
indebtedness for the tax year by that property's average adjusted  
basis during the period it is held in the tax year. This percentage  
cannot be more than 100%.  
Line 1. Enter the address of the debt-financed property. If the  
debt-financed property isn’t real property, enter the address  
where the property is located and describe the property in Part  
XI, Supplemental Information.  
Check the box next to the property description if the property  
is used both to carry on exempt activities and to conduct  
unrelated trade or business activities.  
Line 7. The amount of income from debt-financed property  
included in unrelated trade or business income is figured by  
multiplying the property's gross income by the percentage  
computed on line 6.  
Line 8 . Enter on line 8 the sum of amounts computed for each  
property on line 7. Also enter this amount on Part I, line 7,  
column (A).  
Line 2. Enter the gross income from debt financed property,  
excluding income otherwise included in UBTI. For example, don't  
include rents from personal property shown on Schedule A, Part  
IV, or rents and interest from controlled organizations shown on  
Schedule A, Part VI.  
Line 9. For each debt-financed property, multiply the total  
deductions directly connected to the income (including the  
dividends-received deductions allowed by sections 243, 244,  
and 245) by the percentage computed on line 6. However, if the  
debt-financed property is depreciable property, figure the  
depreciation deduction by the straight line method only and enter  
the amount on Schedule A, Part V, line 3a.  
Line 3. For amounts shown on line 3a, attach a statement  
showing, for each property:  
1. The cost or salvage value,  
2. The year acquired,  
For each debt-financed property, attach statements showing  
separately a computation of the depreciation deduction (if any)  
reported on Schedule A, Part V, line 3a, (as described earlier)  
and a breakdown of the expenses included on Schedule A, Part  
V, line 3b. Corporations owning stock that is unrelated  
debt-financed property should see Schedule C (Dividends and  
Special Deductions) of Form 1120, U.S. Corporation Income Tax  
Return, to determine the dividends-received deductions to  
include on Schedule A, Part V, line 3b.  
When a capital loss for the tax year may be carried back or  
carried over to another tax year, the amount to carry over or back  
is figured by using the percentage determined above. However,  
in the year to which the amounts are carried, don't apply the  
debt-basis percentage to determine the deduction for that year.  
3. The property’s useful life (rounded to a whole number if  
necessary),  
4. The years remaining (rounded to a whole number if  
necessary),  
5. The annual depreciation expense amount, and  
6. The allowable depreciation expense amount.  
Line 4. Average acquisition indebtedness for any tax year is the  
average amount of the outstanding principal debt during the part  
of the tax year the property is held by the organization. To figure  
the average amount of acquisition debt, determine the amount of  
the outstanding principal debt on the first day of each calendar  
month during that part of the tax year that the organization holds  
the property. Add these amounts together, and divide the result  
by the total number of months during the tax year that the  
organization held the property. See section 514(a) and the  
related regulations for property acquired for an indeterminate  
price.  
Line 10. On line 10, enter the sum of amounts computed for  
each property on line 9. Also enter this amount on Part I, line 7,  
column (B).

2. The percent allocable to debt-financed income, and  
3. The product of (1) multiplied by (2).  
Part VI. Interest, Annuities, Royalties,  
and Rents From Controlled  
Organizations  
Line 5. The average adjusted basis for debt-financed property  
is the average of the adjusted basis of the property on the first  
and last days during the tax year that the organization holds the  
property. Determine the adjusted basis of property under section  
1011. Adjust the basis of the property by the depreciation for all  
earlier tax years, whether or not the organization was exempt  
from tax for any of these years. Similarly, for tax years during  
which the organization is subject to tax on UBTI, adjust the basis  
of the property by the entire amount of allowable depreciation,  
even though only a part of the deduction for depreciation is taken  
into account in figuring UBTI.  
Under section 512(b)(13), interest, annuities, royalties, and rents  
received or accrued (directly or indirectly) by a controlling  
organization from a controlled organization are subject to tax,  
whether or not the activity conducted by the controlling  
organization to earn these amounts is a trade or business or is  
regularly conducted. However, see Regulations section  
1.512(b)-1(l)(5) regarding amounts taxable under other  
provisions of the Code.

under section 501(a). Net unrelated income is that portion of the  
controlled entity's taxable income that would be UBTI if the entity  
were exempt under section 501(a) and had the same exempt  
purposes as the controlling organization. Net unrelated loss is  
the controlled organization's NOL adjusted under rules similar to

of the property.  
Column 3. Deduct only those expenses that are directly  
connected to the net investment income. Allocate deductions  
between exempt activities and other activities where necessary.  
The organization may not take the dividends-received  
deductions in figuring net investment income because they aren't  
treated as directly connected with the production of gross  
income.  
Column 4 or 9. For each controlled organization, enter the total  
of specified payments received from each controlled  
organization. If the organization received both specified  
payments and qualifying specified payments from a controlled  
organization, enter specified payments on one line and  
qualifying specified payments on another so that there are dual  
entries for that controlled organization.  
Column 4. Section 501(c)(7), (9), and (17) organizations may  
set aside income that would otherwise be taxable under section  
512(a)(3). However, income derived from an unrelated trade or  
business may not be set aside and thus can’t be exempt function  
income. In addition, any income set aside and later used for  
other purposes must be included in income.  
Column 5 or 10. For specified payments, enter the portion of  
column 4 or 9 to the extent that the payment reduced the net  
unrelated income (or increased the net unrelated loss) of the  
controlled entity.  
Section 501(c)(7), (9), and (17) organizations won't be taxed  
Column 6 or 11. Enter only those deductions directly  
on income set aside for:  
connected with the income entered in column 5 or 10.  
1. Religious, charitable, scientific, literary, or educational  
purposes, or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals  
(and reasonable administration costs directly connected to such  
purposes); or  
2. The payment of life, sickness, accident, or other benefits  
(and reasonable administration costs directly connected to such  
benefits) by a section 501(c)(9) or (17) organization. The amount  
allowed as a set-aside may not exceed a limit determined using  
section 512(a)(3)(E). See sections 512(a)(3)(E) and 419A for  
details.  
With respect to qualifying specified payments, enter only that  
portion of expenses directly connected to the amounts included  
in column 5 or 10, that is, the excess of the payment over the  
FMV amount, as determined in accordance with section 482.  
Don't enter any expenses relating to the portion of such payment  
that isn't includible in income under this special rule.  
For valuation misstatements regarding qualifying  
specified payments, there is a 20% addition to tax. See  
!
CAUTION  
section 512(b)(13)(E)(ii).  
Excess qualifying specified payments. Excess qualifying  
specified payments received or accrued from a controlled entity  
(that is, the amount of qualifying specified payments in excess of  
what would have been paid or accrued if the payments had been  
determined under section 482) are included in a controlling  
exempt organization's UBTI.  
Report income set aside on Schedule A, Part VII, column 4.  
Attach a statement listing:  
1. The amount set aside for charitable purposes;  
2. The amount set aside for reasonable administration costs  
directly connected with such amount;  
3. The amount set aside for payment of life, sickness,  
accident, or other benefit; and  
Part VII. Investment Income of a  
Section 501(c)(7), (9), or (17)  
Organization  
4. The amount set aside for reasonable administration costs  
directly connected with the payment of such benefits.  
Amounts set aside aren't deductible under section 170 or any  
other section of the Code.  
The organization may elect to treat income set aside by the  
date for filing the return, including any extension of time, as  
income set aside in the tax year for which the return is filed. The  
income set aside must have been includible in gross income for  
that earlier tax year.  
Although set-aside income may be accumulated, any  
accumulation that is unreasonable will be evidence that the set  
aside wasn’t for the purposes previously mentioned.  
Net investment income set aside must be specifically  
earmarked as such, or placed in a separate account or fund  
(except for a section 501(c)(9) or (17) organization which, by the  
terms of its governing instrument, must use its net investment  
income for the payment of life, sickness, accident, or other  
benefits, and reasonable administration costs).  
Generally, for section 501(c)(7), (9), or (17) organizations,  
unrelated trade or business income includes all gross income  
from nonmembers with certain modifications. See section 512(a)  
(3)(A). Report on Schedule A, Part VII, all income from  
investments in securities and other similar investment income  
from nonmembers, including 100% of income and directly  
connected expenses from debt-financed property. Don't report  
nonmember income from debt-financed property on Schedule A,  
Part V.  
All section 501(c)(7), (9), and (17) organizations figure their  
investment income using Schedule A, Part VII. Don't include  
interest on state and local governmental obligations described in  
section 103(a).  
Investment income includes all income from debt-financed  
property.  
If a section 501(c)(7), (9), or (17) organization (or a title  
holding corporation, described earlier) sells property that was  
used for the exempt function of the section 501(c)(7), (9), or (17)  
These rules apply to a corporation described in section  
501(c)(2) (title holding corporation) whose income is payable to  
an organization described in section 501(c)(7), (9), or (17) if it  
26

of advertising income over direct advertising costs, no loss is  
allowable. See Regulations section 1.512(a)-1(f)(2)(ii)(b).  
For allocating membership receipts to circulation income, see  
Rev. Rul. 81-101, 1981 C.B. 352.  
Part VIII. Exploited Exempt Activity  
Income, Other Than Advertising  
Income  
Consolidated periodicals. If an organization publishes two or  
more periodicals, it may elect to treat the gross income for all  
(but not less than all) periodicals, and deductions directly  
connected with those periodicals (including excess readership  
costs) as if the periodicals were one to determine its UBTI. This  
rule only applies to periodicals published for the production of  
income. A periodical is considered published for the production  
of income if gross advertising income of the periodical is at least  
25% of the readership costs, and the periodical is an activity  
engaged in for profit.  
If periodicals are consolidated, check the box next to the  
periodical name, and attach a statement showing the name of  
each periodical in the consolidated group. The attached  
statement should include the amounts that correspond to  
information for lines 2 through 4. Attach a separate statement for  
the consolidated group of publications that includes the amounts  
corresponding to the information for lines 5 through 8.  
Exempt organizations that have gross income from an unrelated  
trade or business activity that exploits an exempt activity (other  
than periodical advertising income reportable on Schedule A,  
Part IX) should complete Schedule A, Part VIII. See Regulations  
section 1.513-1(d)(4)(iv) for a definition of exploited exempt  
activity. Report income from advertising other than in a periodical  
on Schedule A, Part VIII.  
Line 1. Briefly describe the exempt activity being exploited in  
an unrelated trade or business activity.  
Line 3. An exempt organization may take all deductions directly  
connected with the gross income from the unrelated trade or  
business activity.  
Line 4. Subtract directly connected deductions from the gross  
unrelated business income. If unrelated business income  
exceeds the directly connected deduction, the exempt  
organization may take into account all deductible items  
attributable to the exploited exempt activity, with the following  
limitations.  
Part X. Compensation of Officers,  
Directors, and Trustees  
Complete columns 1 through 4 for those officers, directors, and  
trustees whose salaries or other compensation are allocable to  
unrelated business gross income. Don't include in column 4  
compensation that is deducted on Schedule A, Part II, lines 2  
and 14, or any line of Schedule A, Parts III through IX.  
1. Reduce the deductible items of the exempt activity by the  
income from the activity.  
2. Limit the net amount of deductible items arrived at in item  
1 above for the exempt activity to the net unrelated business  
income from the exploited exempt activity.  
3. Exclude income and expenses of the exempt activity in  
figuring a loss carryover or carryback from the unrelated trade or  
business activity exploiting the exempt activity.  
4. Exclude deductible items of the exempt activity in figuring  
unrelated trade or business income from an activity that isn't  
exploiting the same exempt activity.  
Part XI. Supplemental Information  
Use Part XI to explain the organization’s operations, to provide  
information for lines that don’t have an embedded attachment to  
capture the information to supplement information provided on  
an embedded attachment, or to provide any other information in  
support of amounts reported on Schedule A. An organization  
that associated unrelated trade or business activity with a  
different NAICS or Business Activity Code in a prior year than the  
NAICS or Business Activity Code shown on the Schedule A for  
the current tax year can enter the explanation for the change  
here.  
As a result, the net includible exploited exempt activity  
income is the UBTI minus the excess of the exempt activity  
expenses over the exempt activity income. If the income from the  
exempt activity exceeds the exempt activity expenses, don't add  
that profit to the net income from the unrelated business activity.  
Attach a separate statement showing the computation.  
For each entry in Part XI, include the Schedule A Part and line  
number, a brief description, and the amount (if any). If necessary,  
you may also attach a PDF document to provide supplemental  
information.  
Part IX. Advertising Income  
An exempt organization that earned gross income from the sale  
of advertising in an exempt organization periodical must  
complete Schedule A, Part IX. The part of the advertising income  
taken into account is determined as follows.  
Paperwork Reduction Act Notice  
We ask for the information on these forms to carry out the  
Internal Revenue laws of the United States. You are required to  
give us the information. We need it to ensure that you are  
complying with these laws and to allow us to figure and collect  
the right amount of tax. You are not required to provide the  
information requested on a form that is subject to the Paperwork  
Reduction Act unless the form displays a valid OMB control  
number. Books or records relating to a form or its instructions  
must be retained as long as their contents may become material  
in the administration of any Internal Revenue law. Generally, tax  
returns and return information are confidential, as required by  
section 6103.  
1. If direct advertising costs (expenses directly connected  
with advertising income) are more than advertising income  
(unrelated business income), deduct that excess in figuring UBTI  
from any other unrelated trade or business activity conducted by  
the organization.  
2. If advertising income is more than direct advertising costs,  
and circulation income (exempt activity income) equals or  
exceeds readership costs (exempt activity expenses), then UBTI  
is the excess of advertising income over direct advertising costs.  
3. If advertising income is more than direct advertising costs,  
and readership costs are more than circulation income, then  
UBTI is the excess of total income (advertising income and  
circulation income) over total periodical costs (direct advertising  
costs and readership costs).

presented separately. Time burden includes the time spent  
preparing to file and to file, with recordkeeping representing the  
largest component. Out-of-pocket costs include any expenses  
incurred by taxpayers to prepare and submit their tax returns.  
Examples include tax return preparation and submission fees,  
postage and photocopying costs, and tax preparation software  
costs. Note that these estimates do not include burden  
associated with post-filing activities. IRS operational data  
indicate that electronically prepared and filed returns have fewer  
arithmetic errors, implying lower post-filing burden.  
Reported time and cost burdens are national averages and  
do not necessarily reflect a “typical” case. Most taxpayers  
experience lower than average burden, with taxpayer burden  
varying considerably by taxpayer type. For instance, the  
estimated average time burden for all taxpayers filing Forms 990,  
990-EZ, 990-PF, 990-T, and 990-N and related forms is 32.8  
hours, with an average cost of $921 per return. This average  
includes all associated forms and schedules, across all  
preparation methods and taxpayer activities.

Trade or business. A trade or business  
is any activity conducted for the

production of income from selling goods  
or performing services. An activity must  
be conducted with intent to profit to  
constitute a trade or business. An activity  
doesn’t lose its identity as a trade or  
business merely because it is conducted  
within a larger group of similar activities  
that may or may not be related to the  
exempt purpose of the organization. If,

Section 501(c)(3) describes certain  
organizations which are exempt from

Non-NAICS Business  
Activity Codes  
Separate trade or business. An  
organization with more than one  
unrelated trade or business should refer  
to Regulations section 1.512(a)-6 to  
determine if two or more trades or  
businesses are separate trades or  
businesses for purposes of calculating  
UBTI.  
In the codes below that include “###”  
replace “#” with numbers to identify each  
interest (nonqualified S corporation or  
passive income activity). For example, if  
four Schedules A are being filed to report  
unrelated trade or business income from  
four separate nonqualifying S corporation  
interests, the business activity code  
entered in item C at the top of the four  
Schedules A would be 904001, 904002,  
904003, and 904004, respectively.  
By annual return (for purposes of the  
public inspection rules discussed below),  
we mean any annual return (defined  
above) that isn't more than 3 years old  
from the later of:  
The date the return is required to be  
filed (including extensions), or  
Unrelated trade or business income.  
Unrelated trade or business income is the  
gross income derived from any trade or  
business (defined above) regularly  
The date that the return is actually  
filed.  
Directly connected expenses. To be  
deductible in computing UBTI, expenses,  
depreciation, and similar items must  
qualify as deductions allowed by section  
162, section 167, or other sections, and  
must be directly connected with the  
conduct of unrelated trade or business  
activity.  
To be directly connected with the  
conduct of an unrelated trade or business  
activity, expenses, depreciation, and  
similar items must bear a proximate and  
primary relationship to the conduct of the  
activity. For example, where facilities  
and/or personnel are used both to  
conduct exempt activities and to conduct  
an unrelated trade or business, expenses  
and similar items attributable to such  
facilities and/or personnel must be  
allocated between the two uses on a  
reasonable basis. The portion of any  
such item allocated to the unrelated trade  
or business must bear a proximate and  
primary relationship to that unrelated  
trade or business.
