| Depreciation Policy Go-Forward Election (Part IX, Line 22) | Willow River Rod & Gun Club Inc. has historically maintained fixed assets on its balance sheet but did not record annual depreciation expense during the approximate period 2015 through 2024. The accumulated depreciation balance of $48,542 reflected on the beginning of year balance sheet represents depreciation recorded through approximately 2014 on the clubhouse addition placed in service in 2004. Beginning with the tax year ended December 31, 2025, the organization is resuming the recording of straight-line depreciation on all depreciable fixed assets on a go-forward basis. No catch-up adjustment for prior years has been recorded. The organization's depreciation policy uses the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: buildings and structural additions 39 years; land improvements 15 years; machinery and equipment 7 years; furniture and fixtures 7 years. Depreciation expense of $3,372 is reported on Part IX, Line 22 for the year ended December 31, 2025, consisting of $3,175 on the clubhouse addition (cost $123,842, in service 2004) and $197 on new pistol range land improvements (cost $35,540, placed in service December 1, 2025). |

| Part XI. Line 9 Other Changes in Net Assets | Part XI, Line 9 reflects a decrease of $16,987 representing the removal of fully depreciated fixed assets that had been carried on the balance sheet at gross cost without corresponding accumulated depreciation recorded against them. The assets consist of furniture and fixtures placed in service in 2008 ($1,805) and machinery and equipment placed in service in 2010 ($15,182), both fully depreciated under a 7-year straight-line life by 2015 and 2017, respectively. The adjustment eliminates the resulting overstatement of net assets and is reflected as an other decrease on Part XI, Line 9. |
