Distinguish between program services expenses and supporting services expenses. Why is it important that NFPs report expenses for program services separately from those for supporting services?

IRC Sec. 527 includes such organizations as political action committees, political parties and political campaigns. In fact, Sec. 527 organizations are considered tax-exempt under the IRC. Campaign finance laws typically have an impact on Sec. 527 organizations. As a result of such laws, organizations that meet the definition of a political organization are required to notify the IRS that they wish to be considered a Sec. 527 tax-exempt organization. Additionally, Sec. 527 NFPs must periodically complete Form 8872, notifying the IRS of the names and addresses of persons contributing more than $200 to the NFP, and those persons receiving more than $500 from the NFP.
