Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“FIN 48 note from Audited Financial Statements The Organization is exempt from federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and therefore no provision for federal income taxes has been made on the accompanying financial statements. In addition, the Organization has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service not to be a "private foundation" within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. There was no unrelated business income for the year ended August 31, 2019. The Organization's Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, are subject to examination by the IRS, generally for three years from date of filing. VOCEL has adopted the requirements for accounting for uncertain tax positions. Management has determined that VOCEL was not required to record a liability related to uncertain tax positions as of August 31, 2019.”
