Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

The Association is exempt from income tax as provided under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, except on net income derived from unrelated business activities. The Association adopted accounting requirements that prescribe when to recognize and how to measure the financial statement effects of income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on its income tax returns, including the position that the Association continues to qualify to be treated as a tax-exempt Association for both federal and state income tax purposes. These rules require management to evaluate the likelihood that, upon examination by relevant taxing jurisdictions, those income tax positions would be sustained.Based on that evaluation, if it were more than 50% probable that a material amount of income tax would be imposed at the entity level upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities, a liability would be recognized in the accompanying statement of financial position along with any interest and penalties that would result from that assessment. If the Association has unrelated business income, the federal Exempt Association Business Income Tax Return (Form 990T) would be subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for three years after filing. Should any penalties and interest be incurred, they would be recognized as management and general expenses. Based on the results of managements evaluation, the requirements did not have a material effect on the Associations financial statements. Accordingly, no liability is recognized in the accompanying statement of financial position for uncertain income tax positions.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Association is exempt from income tax as provided under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, except on net income derived from unrelated business activities. The Association adopted accounting requirements that prescribe when to recognize and how to measure the financial statement effects of income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on its income tax returns, including the position that the Association continues to qualify to be treated as a tax-exempt Association for both federal and state income tax purposes. These rules require management to evaluate the likelihood that, upon examination by relevant taxing jurisdictions, those income tax positions would be sustained.Based on that evaluation, if it were more than 50% probable that a material amount of income tax would be imposed at the entity level upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities, a liability would be recognized in the accompanying statement of financial position along with any interest and penalties that would result from that assessment. If the Association has unrelated business income, the federal Exempt Association Business Income Tax Return (Form 990T) would be subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for three years after filing. Should any penalties and interest be incurred, they would be recognized as management and general expenses. Based on the results of managements evaluation, the requirements did not have a material effect on the Associations financial statements. Accordingly, no liability is recognized in the accompanying statement of financial position for uncertain income tax positions.
