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 — 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.

In all cases, the charter travel was for business purposes, and, accordingly, the cost of the charter travel was not treated as taxable compensation.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Travel for companions
The University's business travel policy requires any companion accompanying a University employee on business travel to pay for his or her own travel expenses unless University payments for companion travel are permitted in the employee's employment agreement, which has been reviewed and approved by the Board's subcommittee on compensation.
