Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C, OVERSIGHT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT:

The organization's financial statements are audited by an independent accounting firm. In addition, the committee of the supported organization assumes the responsibility for oversight of the audit of the financial statements and the selection of the independent accountant.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

Msc follows the fasb codification topic income taxes. The topic prescribes a minimum recognition threshold and measurement methodology that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is required to meet before being recognized in financial statements. Msc's consolidated statements of financial position at december 31, 2016 and 2015 do not include any liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions; further, msc has no unrecognized tax benefits. Msc believes that is no longer subject to examination of its tax returns for years before 2013.
