“The foundation has been recognized as tax-exempt under internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and is, therefore, generally exempt from federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided for in the accompanying financial statements. Asc 740-10, "accounting for uncertainty in income taxes," requires the foundation to evaluate and disclose tax positions that could have an effect on the foundation's financial statements. The foundation reports its activities to the internal revenue service and to the commonwealth of massachusetts on an annual basis. These informational returns are generally subject to audit and review by the governmental agencies for a period of three years after filing. Substantially all of the foundation's income, expenditures and activities relate to its exempt purpose, therefore, management has determined that the foundation is not subject to material unrelated business income taxes and will continue to qualify as a tax-exempt not-for-profit entity.”
