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 3:
- THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR IS COMPENSATED SOLELY BY THE PBS FOUNDATION. THE RELATED ORGANIZATION, PBS, USES A THIRD-PARTY CONSULTANT WHO IS A COMPENSATION EXPERT TO PROVIDE COMPARABILITY DATA FOR THE FOUNDATION'S EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR POSITION EACH YEAR. THE PBS CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER WORKING WITH THE HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT AND USING THIS COMPARABILITY DATA, MAKES A COMPENSATION RECOMMENDATION FOR THE FOUNDATION'S EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR POSITION. THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER REVIEWS AND APPROVES THE RECOMMENDATION MADE BY THE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER. THE FOUNDATION'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER IS NOT COMPENSATED BY THE FILING ORGANIZATION.
- SCHEDULE J, PART I, LINE 7:
- BONUSES ARE DISCRETIONARY AND DETERMINED ON AN ANNUAL BASIS BY THE PRESIDENT AND APPROVAL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
