Financial Statement Notes

PART V, LINE 4:

“The organization's spending policy allows for maximum distributions of 4% of principal annually to fund education programs.”

PART X, LINE 2:

“Sdef qualifies for tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code as other than a private foundation. Sdef has evaluated its tax positions for all open tax years. Currently, the tax years open and subject to examination by the internal revenue service are the 2011, 2012 and 2013 tax years. However, sdef is not currently under audit nor has sdef been contacted by any jurisdiction. Based on the evaluation of the sdefs tax positions, management believes all tax positions taken would be upheld under an examination. Therefore, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions has been recorded for the years ended december 31, 2014 or 2013.”

“Cost of goods sold 3,912. Special event expense 5,833.”
