“The internal revenue service has determined that the organization is exempt from federal income taxes under section 501(c)3 of the internal revenue code. The organization is a not-for-profit florida corporation and therefore is not subject to state income tax taxes. The internal revenue code provides for taxation of unrelated business income under certain circumstances. The organization reports no unrelated business taxable income, however, such status is subject to final determination upon examination of the related tax returns by the appropriate taxing authorities. The organization's tax filings are subject to audit by various taxing authorities. Certain income tax returns filed by the organization remain open to examination by these government agencies. The financial accounting standards board has issued guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes and the organization adopted this guidance. The organization has evaluated its tax positions and any estimates utilized in its tax returns, and concluded that the organization has taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustments to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions will be recognized in income tax expense, if required.”
