Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2 - FIN 48 (ASC 740) Statement:

“SMI has been granted exemption from federal income taxes under Section 501(a) as an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. SMI files an informational return with the Internal Revenue Service. SMI is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years prior to 2013. The Organization follows FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which prescribes a comprehensive model for how an organization should measure, recognize, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that an organization has taken or expects to take on a tax return. Management annually reviews its tax positions and has determined that there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition in the financial statements as of December 31, 2016.”
