| Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 | During the current years review, management identified a reporting error in the prior Form 990, which resulted in an understatement of net assets. In the prior filing, estimated future insurance premiums were reported as a reduction of net assets and as an increase to benefits paid. These estimated premiums represented non current liabilities and did not meet the criteria for recognition as current year expenses or liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the current Form 990 reflects a correction of this error through a prior period adjustment to beginning net assets. The adjustment removes the previuosly recorded non current liability and the related overstatement of benefits paid. This correction has no impact on current year operations, cash flows, or benefits actually paid to participants. As a result of this adjustments, beginning net assets increased by 4,630,000 reflecting the proper classification of teh prior period reporting error. |
