Arts Horizons Inc.

“The board of directors' primary objective, in this regard, is to add value and minimize risk in managing the assets of the fund while providing a hedge against inflation into the future. It is the intent of the board of directors to maintain the endowment and utilize the total return (income plus capital change) to further the mission of the organization. In recognition of the prudence required of fiduciaries, reasonable diversification of quality investment securities will be sought where possible, knowing that fluctuating rates of return are a characteristic of the investment market and performance cycles cannot be accurately predicted. The funds may be held in individual securities or mutual funds, may be comprised of domestic and international securities, and will be further diversified into asset classes by their market capitalization. The organization does not have a restriction on the amount of unrestricted endowment funds available to be spent.”

“The organization is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and applicable state law. The accounting standards on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes address the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the organization and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (ubit), the tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from a tax position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for fiscal years 2015 and 2014. The organization files its form 990 in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and the office of the state's attorney general for the state of new jersey. The organization is generally no longer subject to examination by the internal revenue service for years before 2011.”
