Nonprofit ED Pay Comparables Guide & Form 990 Peer Workbook
A method guide and a peer-assembly workbook for positioning Executive Director pay against nonprofit peers you can cite. The guide shows where ED compensation is disclosed on IRS Form 990 Part VII and Schedule J, how to choose peers by mission type, budget, geography and staff size, and what smaller organizations filing 990-EZ or 990-N leave out. The workbook takes the peers you enter, each cited to its EIN and tax year, and computes percentiles and Schedule J component medians over that set only. Neither file contains compensation figures, and it includes no IRC 4958 rebuttable-presumption content. Not advice; no outcome is guaranteed.
