| • | Comparable Organization check-list can be filtered by revenue, industry, zip code, text and ranked by Form 990 fields and their relation to one another. |
The Nonprofit Comparables Assessor & Tax-Exempt Survey (CA+) Consultant Edition also incorporates for-profit data collected from proxies and 10-Ks, allowing for a mixed analyses of both tax-exempt and for-profit data.
