US law does not require that religious organizations publicize their actual assets, but the 4 August 1997 issue of Time Magazine estimated that as of 1996, the church held in excess of US $ 30 billion (including church real estate and for-profit enterprises operated by the Deseret Management Corporation).
雖然美國法律並未規定教會必須公開其實際資產，但在 1997 年 8 月 4 日出刊的美國「時代雜誌」，則估計該教會於 1996 年時擁有超過 300 億美元的資產（包括教會的不動產和透過德撒律經營管理股份公司經營的營利事業）。
