Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

As such, the organization is not liable for corporate income taxes for all activity carried on for its exempt purpose. However, activities that are outside of its purpose may be taxed at normal corporate rates. The organization has not carried on any activities which are contrary to its exempt purpose and therefore no provisions have been made for unrelated business income taxes in the financial statements. Management also believes the organization has no significant uncertain tax positions. The organization may be subject to an internal revenue service audit for the years ending september 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016.
