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)

Benefit information (Part I, line 1a)
First class airline tickets were purchased on occasion when large amounts of excess baggage were transported and the first class baggage allowance/discount justified the cost of the first class tickets. Equipment and supplies for the Galapagos Islands clinics had to be carried as baggage from the United States and frequently 8-10 bags were checked and carried by director on work trips. Also during times of baggage embargos to Ecuador, it allowed extra pounds of baggage beyond the embargo limit enabling the transport of critical equipment and supplies.

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.
