If a local business has been designated as a 501(c)(3), the following must be true:
- **The business has federal tax exemptions.**
This is the correct statement because a 501(c)(3) designation specifically grants the organization tax-exempt status under federal law, meaning it does not have to pay federal income tax on its income related to its charitable purpose.
The other statements are not necessarily true:
- A 501(c)(3) can be a public charity or a private foundation, but this designation alone does not specify which it is.
- A 501(c)(3) can earn profits, but those profits must be used for charitable purposes and not distributed to owners or shareholders.
- **The business has federal tax exemptions.**
