South Orange Rescue Squad Inc.

PART X, LINE 2:

“The squad is recognized by the internal revenue service as a nonprofit organization under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and is thereby exempt from federal income taxes. The squad is also exempt under title 15 of the state of new jersey corporations and organizations not-for-profit act. It is classified as a publicly supported organization pursuant to section 509(a)(2), and not as a private foundation. The squad follows the provisions of fasb asc, income taxes. The standard prescribes a minimum recognition threshold and measurement methodology that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance for derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition as they relate to those tax positions. The cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle was immaterial. In assessing the realizability of tax benefits, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of any tax position will not be realized. The ultimate realization of such tax positions is dependent upon the generation of future income. Management considers projected future income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The squad does not expect a significant increase or decrease to the total amounts of unrecognized tax positions during the fiscal year ended december 31, 2017. However, the squad is subject to regular audit by tax authorities. The squad believes that it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year. As required by law, the squad files informational returns with both the federal and new jersey state governments on an annual basis - form 990 with the internal revenue service, and form cri-300r with the state. These returns are subject to examination by these authorities within statutorily defined periods as established by the respective jurisdictions.”
