Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XI, LINE 9:

“Change in accounting method from cash basis to accrual basis -43,471.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization assesses whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination of the technical merits of the position, assuming the taxing authority has full knowledge of all information. If the tax position does not meet the more likely than not recognition threshold, the benefit of the tax position is not recognized in the financial statements. Management evaluated the organization's tax positions and concluded that the organization had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. The organization is subject to u.s. Federal and state examinations by tax authorities generally for three years after the filing of its tax returns.”
