“Bnn is a non-profit organization, exempt from taxation under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3). Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided for in the accompanying financial statements. In addition, bnn has been determined by the meaning of section 509(a) of the internal revenue code. There was no unrelated business income for fiscal year 2021. Bnn reports its activities to the internal revenue service and to the commonwealth of massachusetts on an annual basis. These informational returns are generally subject to audit and review by the governmental agencies for a period of three years after filing. Substantially all of bnn's income, expenditures, and activities relate to its exempt purpose. Therefore, management has determined that bnn is not subject to unrelated business income taxes and will continue to qualify as a tax-exempt not- for-profit entity.”
