“The sole member of the corporation is the council on state taxation.”

“Included in the cost consolidated financial statements: cost is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(6) and stri is exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. Cost and stri are also exempt under section 1802.1(4) of the d.c. Code. The organizations are, however, subject to tax on net income derived from unrelated business activity under applicable tax law. Cost accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting standards codification (asc) topic income taxes. These provisions provide consistent guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's consolidated financial statements and prescribe a threshold of "more likely than not" for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Cost and stri performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions for the years ended december 31, 2019 and 2018, and determined that there were no matters that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements or that may have an effect on its tax-exempt status. As of december 31, 2018, the statute of limitations for the years 2016 through 2018 remains open with the u.s. Federal jurisdiction. It is cost's policy to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in unrelated business income tax expense.”
