Passive income such as interest (hard money loan), rent from real property, dividends and royalties is not subject to UBIT.When a tax-exempt entity receives trade or business income, such as a split of the profits on a business transaction like flipping a house, then that business income is subject to UBIT.The intent of the law is to retain a level playing field for tax-paying businesses, by imposing a cost on tax-exempt entities when they compete with tax-paying businesses by conducting commercial activities.
