The organizations actual cash savings and investment balances totaled 55,449.86 at July 1 2025 and 49,024.55 at June 30 2026. The 4 reported on line 20 reflects accumulated whole-dollar rounding: approximately 2 arising within the prior years return and approximately 2 arising from the rounding of individual revenue and expense lines within the current year. The adjustment is reported on line 20 so that the ending balance sheet reflects actual balances., $-4| Part I, Line 1 | Explanation:| During the year the organization conducted its annual Comet Walk fundraiser through a third-party fundraising company. Gross donations of 30,483.85 were received from 407 donors located in 37 states approximately 59% of whom were individuals other than parents of enrolled students. Donors received no goods or services in exchange for their contributions. These amounts are therefore reported as contributions on line 1 rather than as gross income from a fundraising event on line 6b. The fundraising company retained 10,438.37 a flat 45% of donations solicited and remitted 20,045.48 to the organization. The retained amount is reported on line 16 together with 3,780.16 of merchandise provided to participating students. In the prior year the Comet Walk was conducted directly by the organization as a school-based event and was reported on line 6b. The change in presentation reflects a change in the manner in which the activity was conducted rather than a change in accounting method. Part I, Line 2 | Explanation:| The organization receives a portion of its revenue through third-party payment processors which remit amounts net of processing fees. Gross receipts are reported before deduction of these fees with the corresponding fees reported as expenses on line 16. Total processor fees for the year were 2,180.28 of which 547.88 was recorded individually. The remaining 1,632.40 has been allocated among the affected revenue lines being lines 2 3 6a 6b and 7a in proportion to processor-collected revenue by activity. Part I, Line 6 | Explanation:| Bingo Night is reported as gross income from gaming on line 6a. In the prior year a comparable activity was reported within line 6b. Neither line 6a nor line 6b exceeds 15,000 for the current year and Schedule G is therefore not required. During the fiscal year the organization received 905 in cash at events which was retained in its cash box and not deposited into its bank account by fiscal year end. These amounts are reported as revenue in the year received consistent with the organizations cash method of accounting. The corresponding 925 of cash on hand which includes a 200 cash box fund withdrawn from the organizations checking account is included in Part II line 22. Cash receipts were verified against dual-signed cash box tally records maintained for each event. Direct expenses on line 6c include 180 paid in cash from the event cash box to school custodial staff for after-event cleanup: 100 at the Fall Festival on October 25 2025 and 80 at Bingo Night on March 6 2026. These amounts were recorded on the dual-verified cash box tally sheets for each event. Part I, Line 7 | Explanation:| Gross sales of inventory on line 7a include 94 of spirit wear sales received in cash at the Back to School Picnic on September 18 2025. This amount was retained in the organizations cash box and is included in the cash on hand reported in Part II line 22.
