Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The foundation recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if the positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are recorded at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances and other information available at the reporting date and is subject to management's judgment. Changes in the recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The foundation has evaluated its position regarding the accounting for uncertain income tax positions and does not believe that it has any material uncertain tax positions.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE FOUNDATION RECOGNIZES THE EFFECT OF INCOME TAX POSITIONS ONLY IF THE POSITIONS ARE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT OF BEING SUSTAINED. RECOGNIZED INCOME TAX POSITIONS ARE RECORDED AT THE LARGEST AMOUNT THAT IS GREATER THAN 50% LIKELY OF BEING REALIZED UPON SETTLEMENT WITH A TAXING AUTHORITY THAT HAS FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION. THE DETERMINATION OF WHETHER OR NOT A TAX POSITION HAS MET THE MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT RECOGNITION THRESHOLD CONSIDERS THE FACTS, CIRCUMSTANCES AND OTHER INFORMATION AVAILABLE AT THE REPORTING DATE AND IS SUBJECT TO MANAGEMENT'S JUDGMENT. CHANGES IN THE RECOGNITION OR MEASUREMENT ARE REFLECTED IN THE PERIOD IN WHICH THE CHANGE IN JUDGMENT OCCURS. THE FOUNDATION HAS EVALUATED ITS POSITION REGARDING THE ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAIN INCOME TAX POSITIONS AND DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT IT HAS ANY MATERIAL UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS.
