“During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Association identified an error in recording of education leave revenues and expenses. The Association had been recording education leave revenues and related expenses between a cash account and a liability account, reported net in previously issued financial statements. These revenues should have been restricted assets and not a liability to the Association. Accordingly, the beginning balance of net assets as of January 1, 2024 have been restated and an adjustment of $175,018 was recorded as a prior period adjustment on the Associations financial statements and reflected in the 990 reconciliation.”
