Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)

Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Housing allowance or residence for personal use
Because the President and other staff members are ordained ministers, the board may designate a portion of their compensation as a housing allowance. Such designations are approved in advance and recorded in the Board minutes as required by IRS regulations. Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 107, the ministerial housing allowance is not included in taxable compensation. The people who received the housing allowance are below: J. Jackson, President J. Rentz, COO
Schedule J, Part I, Line 7 Non-fixed payments
John Jackson, President received $87,000 for Section 162 Executive Bonus Plan and $13,861 bonus during the fiscal year ending 6/30/24 and Calendar year 2023. These were discretionary amounts approved by the board and included in his taxable wages.

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
