Eight hundred people attended the contest this year, and prizes of $2,000 were given to the top three graduates. Calculate the amount of Rattler's unrelated business income from this activity.

The contest activity is not classified as an unrelated trade or business. To be so classified, the following characteristics must be present.
∙ The organization conducts a trade or business.
∙ The trade or business is not substantially related to the exempt purpose of the organization.
∙ The trade or business is regularly carried on by the organization.
Based on the data provided, neither the "not substantially related" nor the "regularly carried on" characteristic is satisfied. Thus, Rattler incurs zero unrelated business income from the contest because the contest is not an unrelated trade or business.

The excise taxes such as the tax on self-dealing and the tax on excess business holdings are imposed on exempt organizations classified as private foundations. The taxes are not imposed on exempt organizations classified as public charities.
