“The organization's current accounting policy is to provide liabilities for uncertain tax positions when a liability is probable and estimatable. Management is not aware of any violation of its tax status as an organization exempt from income taxes. The association's tax filings remain open to examination by the appropriate tax authorities generally for three years after they are filed.”
