Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The school accounts for uncertainty in income taxes in which tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. As of june 30, 2020, the school had no uncertain tax positions that qualified for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Additionally, there were no interest and penalties related to income taxes. The school files federal form 990 (return of organization exempt from tax). With few exceptions they are no longer subject to federal and state tax examinations by taxing authorities for years before fiscal year ended june 30, 2017.”
