Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization follows accounting standards which clarify the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statements and recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on derecognition and measurement of a tax position or to be taken in a tax return. The adoption of these standards did not have a material effect. As of june 30, 2016, the organization has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.”
