Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“Distributions can be made for the following purposes: to conduct original research relating to lutheran educators and lutheran education. To support lutheran education research conducted through other means to develop new ideas for programs that move lea towards its vision and mission. To implement specific new programs.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“Lea has been determined to be exempt from income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code (irc), and accordingly, no provision has been made for either federal or state income taxes. It is not a private foundation under section 509(a) of the irc. Lea has evaluated its tax positions taken for all open tax years. Currently the 2015, 2016 and 2017 tax years are open and subject to examination by the internal revenue service; however, lea is not currently under audit nor have they been contacted by this jurisdiction. Based on the evaluation of lea's tax positions, management believes all positions would be upheld under an examination; therefore, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded for the years ended june 30, 2019 or 2018.”
