Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Part X, Line 2

“The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of that position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for fiscal 2017. The Organization files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Organization is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Services for years before 2014.”

Schedule D, Part XI, Line 2D

“Gain on Investments adjusted after audit”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of that position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for fiscal 2017. The Organization files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Organization is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Services for years before 2014.
