Financial Statement Notes

Form 990 Schedule D Part XIII

RAAM RAJ FOUNDATION is a nonprofit organization and is exempt from federal income tax liability; no provision is made for current or deferred income taxes. The organization uses the same accounting method for tax and financial reporting. GAAP provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an entity in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken in its federal exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The organization's returns are subject to examination by federal taxing authorities, generally for three or four years, respectively, after they are filed.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0RAAM RAJ FOUNDATION is a nonprofit organization and is exempt from federal income tax liability; no provision is made for current or deferred income taxes. The organization uses the same accounting method for tax and financial reporting. GAAP provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an entity in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken in its federal exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The organization's returns are subject to examination by federal taxing authorities, generally for three or four years, respectively, after they are filed.
