Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“The congressional fire services institute (the "institute") has adopted asc 740-10, income taxes, as it relates to uncertain tax positions. Management is required to evaluate tax positions taken and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the institute has taken an uncertain position that more than likely than would not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken and has concluded that as of september 30, 2019 there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. None of the institute's federal tax returns are currently under examination by the internal revenue service (the "irs"). Management does not believe there is any unrelated business income for the year ended september 30, 2019.”
