Footnote for uncertain tax position under FIN 48 (Part X)

“WFL has adopted accounting principles related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. WFLs policy is to record a liability for any tax position taken that is beneficial to WFL, including any related interest and penalties, when it is more likely than not the position taken by management with respect to a transaction or class of transactions will be overturned by a taxing authority upon examination. Penalties and interest related to underpayment of income taxes are not recorded as income taxes but as penalties and interest expense. Management has determined that it does not have any material unrecognized tax benefits or obligations as of September 30, 2018 and 2017. Fiscal years ending on or after September 30, 2015, remain subject to examination by federal and state authorities”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2WFL has adopted accounting principles related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. WFLs policy is to record a liability for any tax position taken that is beneficial to WFL, including any related interest and penalties, when it is more likely than not the position taken by management with respect to a transaction or class of transactions will be overturned by a taxing authority upon examination. Penalties and interest related to underpayment of income taxes are not recorded as income taxes but as penalties and interest expense. Management has determined that it does not have any material unrecognized tax benefits or obligations as of September 30, 2018 and 2017. Fiscal years ending on or after September 30, 2015, remain subject to examination by federal and state authorities
