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 First-class or charter travel
- The President and four Global SVP's have flown first-class for international travel and for a bona fide business purpose. This is not included in taxable compensation
- Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Travel for companions
- Travel for spouse (companion) is available to all Young Life staff when needed for ministry or fundraising purposes. They assist with ministry needs by providing pastoral care - leading others in discussion, prayer, and worship. For fundraising purposes, the spouse's presence is often expected by donors. Travel for ministry or fundraising purposes is for a bona fide business purpose, and it not treated as taxable compensation.
- Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Housing allowance or residence for personal use
- Ministerial housing allowances are available to all commissioned or ordained staff who are authorized to perform sacerdotal functions. The CEO, among other qualifying officers and highest compensated employees, received a housing allowance during the year. These allowances are treated as a non-taxable benefit pursuant to IRC section 107.
- Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Health or social club dues or initiation fees
- The health club benefit is offered as a taxable benefit to all full-time Young Life staff. This benefit is available for up to $250 a year.
- Schedule J, Part I, Line 7 Non-fixed payments
- The CEO's salary agreement provides for a performance bonus adjustment. The board can adjust the bonus based on the percentage of annual goals achieved by the CEO. The bonus percentage adjustment ranges from 0 to 15%. The board encourages the CEO to set annual goals that are, where prudent, specific, measurable, and that include a completion date. The board also approved nonfixed payments made in the form of discretionary bonuses for the CFO and VP/Secretary.
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.
