Financial Statement Notes

PART III, LINE 4:

Antique vehicle is provided for public display and preservation

PART X, LINE 2:

The foundation is exempt from federal and local income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code on income derived from activities related to its exempt purpose. This code section enables the foundation to accept donations that qualify as charitable contributions to the donor. The foundation is subject to income taxes on taxable income from unrelated business activities. For the years ended december 31, 2017 and 2016, the foundation did not recognize income tax expense in the accompanying financial statements as there was no unrelated business taxable income. The foundation is not aware of any activities that would jeopardize their tax-exempt status that would require recognition in the accompanying financial statements. Generally, tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities for up to three years from the date a completed return is filed. If there are material omissions of income, tax returns may be subject to examination for up to six years. It is the foundation's policy to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in the accompanying financial statements. As of december 31, 2017 and 2016, the foundation had no uncertain tax positions which should be recognized as a liability.
