NTEE Classification in the SOI (Technical Note)


The attached paper appeared in "Turning Administrative Systems Into Information Systems: 1998-1999," the 6th publication of the IRS Statistics of Income Division in the IRS Methodology Report Series.

The paper compared the NTEE purpose/activity codes given by the IRS with codes independently assigned by NCCS staff. Key findings:

- Approximately 70% were classified the same.

- 81% of organizations were classified with the same NTEE major group. (The specific NTEE within the groups may have differed.)

- When including verifications rated at "fair" as well as "high confidence," the percentage increases to 88%.

- For organizations with more than $10 million in total assets, 89-93% were classified correctly, depending on whether one includes both the "fair" and "high confidence" rating, or only the "high confidence" one.
