| 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 previously 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 adjustment, beginning net assets increased by x,xxx,xxx, reflecting the proper classification and correction of the prior-period reporting error. |
