Financial Statement Notes

Footnote for uncertain tax position under FIN 48 (Part X)

“Uncertain tax positionsThe Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has released FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, that provides guidance for reporting uncertainty in income taxes. For the year ended December 31, 2017, EFI has documented its consideration of FASB ASC 740-10 and determined that no material uncertain tax positions qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Federal Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service generally for three years after it is filed. Tax year ending December 31, 2016 and 2015 remain open with both Federal and state taxing authorities.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Uncertain tax positionsThe Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has released FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, that provides guidance for reporting uncertainty in income taxes. For the year ended December 31, 2017, EFI has documented its consideration of FASB ASC 740-10 and determined that no material uncertain tax positions qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Federal Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service generally for three years after it is filed. Tax year ending December 31, 2016 and 2015 remain open with both Federal and state taxing authorities.
