Financial Statement Notes
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote
“The Association is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code, and accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the financial statements. The Association follows guidance issued by the FASB with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more-likely-than-not test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Association recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and income tax expenses, respectively. The Association has no amounts accrued for interest or penalties as of June 30, 2018 and 2017. Due to its status as a Section 501(c)(6) entity, the Association is not subject to U.S. federal income tax or state income tax. The Association is no longer subject to examination by U.S. federal taxing authorities for years before 2014 and for all state income taxes through 2014. The Association does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months.”
