Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Corporation to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Corporation. The Corporation has determined whether any tax positions have met the recognition threshold and has measured the Corporations exposure to those tax positions. Management believes that the Corporation has adequately addressed all relevant tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. Federal and state tax authorities generally have the right to examine and audit the previous three years of tax returns filed (four years for California). Any interest or penalties assessed to the Corporation are recorded in operating expenses. No interest or penalties from federal or state tax authorities were recorded in the accompanying financial statements.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Corporation to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Corporation. The Corporation has determined whether any tax positions have met the recognition threshold and has measured the Corporations exposure to those tax positions. Management believes that the Corporation has adequately addressed all relevant tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. Federal and state tax authorities generally have the right to examine and audit the previous three years of tax returns filed (four years for California). Any interest or penalties assessed to the Corporation are recorded in operating expenses. No interest or penalties from federal or state tax authorities were recorded in the accompanying financial statements.
