Return Reference Explanation
Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Housing Allowance - A residence on the employer's premises is used for both University business functions and as a personal residence by the President for the convenience of the employer and is treated as nontaxable compensation. The value of the personal space within the residence is included as a nontaxable benefit on Schedule J. Health or social club dues - The University paid social club membership dues for the President. Since the use of the memberships were for business purposes it was not treated as taxable compensation. Personal Services - The University regularly cleans the President's residence and the value of the maintenance of the personal space is taxed accordingly.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 4 The President of Roger Williams University participates in a University 457(f) plan and $126,007 was accrued under the plan during calendar year 2020 and contributed to the plan monthly.
Schedule J, Part I, Line 7 For University non-aligned employees, merit based compensation may be granted as either a base salary increase or a one-time bonus. Qualifications for receiving a bonus include performance exceeding expectations or taking on additional duties due to staff vacancies or temporary absences. For the compensation of the University's President, the bonus amount (if any) is determined by an employment agreement along with a review and approval of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees, who are all independent of the President. In the case of all other officers and other key employees, the bonus amount (if any) is determined via the same process as other compensation for officers and other key employees, including review by the University's President, who is independent of the other officers or key employees.
