Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization is a nonprofit corporation as described in section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and is exempt from federal and state income taxes on related income pursuant to section 501(a) of the code. The organization has implemented accounting for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america. This standard describes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides guidance on various related matters such as derecognizing, interest, penalties, and disclosures required. Management evaluates the uncertain tax positions taken regarding unrelated business income taxes, if any, and consults with outside counsel as deemed necessary. The organization recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities in income tax expense. Generally, for united states federal income taxes, the organization is only subject to examination for the current year's tax return and the preceding three years' returns. Generally, for wisconsin income taxes, the organization is only subject to examinations for the current year's tax return and the preceding four years' returns.”
