Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The financial accounting standards board issued asc 740-10, accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which prescribed a comprehensive model for how an organization should measure, recognize, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that an organization has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The museum has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with internal revenue service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The museum believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse affect on the museum financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the museum has not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at december 31, 2024 and 2023. Fiscal years ending on or after december 31, 2021 remain subject to examination be federal and state tax authorities.
