Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

Minnesota farmers union and farmers union foundation are organized as minnesota nonprofit corporations and have been recognized by the irs as exempt from federal income taxes under irc section 501(a) as organizations described in irc section 501(c)(5) - minnesota farmers union and irc section 501(c)(3) - farmers union foundation. Each entity is annually required to file a return of organization exempt from income tax (form 990) with the irs. In addition, the entities are subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to their exempt purposes. Minnesota farmers union files an exempt organization business income tax return (form 990-t) with the irs to report its unrelated business taxable income. Farmers union foundation determined that it is not subject to unrelated business income tax and has not filed an exempt organization business income tax return (form 990-t) with the irs. Minnesota farmers union service corporation is organized as a minnesota business corporation. Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their respective tax-basis carrying amounts. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period in which the enactment date occurs. The determination of current and deferred income taxes is a critical accounting estimate which is based on complex analyses of many factors including interpretation of federal and state income tax laws; the evaluation of uncertain tax positions; differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities (temporary differences); estimates of amounts due or owed, such as the timing of reversal of temporary differences; and current financial accounting standards. Additionally, there can be no assurance that estimates and interpretations used in determining income tax liabilities will not be challenged by federal and state taxing authorities. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and tax law interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax liabilities.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0MINNESOTA FARMERS UNION AND FARMERS UNION FOUNDATION ARE ORGANIZED AS MINNESOTA NONPROFIT CORPORATIONS AND HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZED BY THE IRS AS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER IRC SECTION 501(A) AS ORGANIZATIONS DESCRIBED IN IRC SECTION 501(C)(5) - MINNESOTA FARMERS UNION AND IRC SECTION 501(C)(3) - FARMERS UNION FOUNDATION. EACH ENTITY IS ANNUALLY REQUIRED TO FILE A RETURN OF ORGANIZATION EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAX (FORM 990) WITH THE IRS. IN ADDITION, THE ENTITIES ARE SUBJECT TO INCOME TAX ON NET INCOME THAT IS DERIVED FROM BUSINESS ACTIVITIES THAT ARE UNRELATED TO THEIR EXEMPT PURPOSES. MINNESOTA FARMERS UNION FILES AN EXEMPT ORGANIZATION BUSINESS INCOME TAX RETURN (FORM 990-T) WITH THE IRS TO REPORT ITS UNRELATED BUSINESS TAXABLE INCOME. FARMERS UNION FOUNDATION DETERMINED THAT IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME TAX AND HAS NOT FILED AN EXEMPT ORGANIZATION BUSINESS INCOME TAX RETURN (FORM 990-T) WITH THE IRS. MINNESOTA FARMERS UNION SERVICE CORPORATION IS ORGANIZED AS A MINNESOTA BUSINESS CORPORATION. INCOME TAXES ARE ACCOUNTED FOR USING THE ASSET AND LIABILITY METHOD. UNDER THIS METHOD, DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARE RECOGNIZED FOR THE FUTURE TAX CONSEQUENCES ATTRIBUTABLE TO DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT CARRYING AMOUNTS OF EXISTING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE TAX-BASIS CARRYING AMOUNTS. DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ARE MEASURED USING ENACTED TAX RATES EXPECTED TO APPLY TO TAXABLE INCOME IN THE YEARS IN WHICH THOSE TEMPORARY DIFFERENCES ARE EXPECTED TO BE RECOVERED OR SETTLED. THE EFFECT ON DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES OF A CHANGE IN TAX RATES IS RECOGNIZED IN INCOME IN THE PERIOD IN WHICH THE ENACTMENT DATE OCCURS. THE DETERMINATION OF CURRENT AND DEFERRED INCOME TAXES IS A CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE WHICH IS BASED ON COMPLEX ANALYSES OF MANY FACTORS INCLUDING INTERPRETATION OF FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAX LAWS; THE EVALUATION OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS; DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TAX AND FINANCIAL REPORTING BASES OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (TEMPORARY DIFFERENCES); ESTIMATES OF AMOUNTS DUE OR OWED, SUCH AS THE TIMING OF REVERSAL OF TEMPORARY DIFFERENCES; AND CURRENT FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS. ADDITIONALLY, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT ESTIMATES AND INTERPRETATIONS USED IN DETERMINING INCOME TAX LIABILITIES WILL NOT BE CHALLENGED BY FEDERAL AND STATE TAXING AUTHORITIES. ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE ESTIMATES AND TAX LAW INTERPRETATIONS USED IN DETERMINING THE CURRENT AND DEFERRED INCOME TAX LIABILITIES.
