Why doesn't the Mormon church have to disclose its financial publicly?

Simply because the law in the United States does not require nonprofit religious institutions to publicly disclose their finances. This is part of the First Amendment to the US Constitution, which prohibits the US Government from meddling in the affairs of law abiding religious organizations. Those branches of the church which are for profit (such as their real estate and media holdings) do pay taxes and do disclose their finances to the public. In nations where religious organizations are required to disclose their finances, the church complies, but reports only the financial information relative to that nation and not the international church as a whole.
