Description
Nonprofit organizations, and particularly private foundations, are subject to a bewildering array of federal excise taxes designed to regulate their behavior.Nonprofit organizations, and particularly private foundations, are subject to a bewildering array of federal excise taxes designed to regulate their behavior. Congress continually adds new excise taxes for this purpose. The rules for navigating these excise taxes become denser and denser, and the IRS has been stepping up compliance through audit activity. This combination of more complexity, more compliance and great potential penalties is a potentially toxic brew for the unprepared nonprofit organization and its tax advisors. This topic will help persons who deal with nonprofit organizations that are subject to excise tax regimes be aware of potential filing and reporting obligations and be equipped to comply with them.
