Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

“The board of directors assumes oversight over the audit of the financial statements, including reviewing and approving all statements.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Wta is a not-for-profit organization that is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(6) of the internal revenue code. The foundation is a not-for-profit organization that is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. As a matter of law, the alliance is subject to examination by federal and state taxing authroities. Although management believes that the amounts reflected in the alliance's exempt tax returns substantially comply with the applicable federal and state tax regulations, both the irs and the various state taxing authorities can take positions contrary to the alliance's position based on their interpretation of the law. A tax position that is challenged by a taxing authority could result in an adjustment to the financial statements. Generally, federal and state taxing authorities can include returns filed within the last three years for examination and additional years can be added if a substantial error is identified. Generally, if a substantial error is identified, the federal and state taxing authorities will not go back more than the last six years. Any interest and penalties that resulted from such examinations will be expensed in the year they are assessed on the statement of activities.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0WTA IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(6) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. THE FOUNDATION IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. AS A MATTER OF LAW, THE ALLIANCE IS SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION BY FEDERAL AND STATE TAXING AUTHROITIES. ALTHOUGH MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT THE AMOUNTS REFLECTED IN THE ALLIANCE'S EXEMPT TAX RETURNS SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLY WITH THE APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE TAX REGULATIONS, BOTH THE IRS AND THE VARIOUS STATE TAXING AUTHORITIES CAN TAKE POSITIONS CONTRARY TO THE ALLIANCE'S POSITION BASED ON THEIR INTERPRETATION OF THE LAW. A TAX POSITION THAT IS CHALLENGED BY A TAXING AUTHORITY COULD RESULT IN AN ADJUSTMENT TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. GENERALLY, FEDERAL AND STATE TAXING AUTHORITIES CAN INCLUDE RETURNS FILED WITHIN THE LAST THREE YEARS FOR EXAMINATION AND ADDITIONAL YEARS CAN BE ADDED IF A SUBSTANTIAL ERROR IS IDENTIFIED. GENERALLY, IF A SUBSTANTIAL ERROR IS IDENTIFIED, THE FEDERAL AND STATE TAXING AUTHORITIES WILL NOT GO BACK MORE THAN THE LAST SIX YEARS. ANY INTEREST AND PENALTIES THAT RESULTED FROM SUCH EXAMINATIONS WILL BE EXPENSED IN THE YEAR THEY ARE ASSESSED ON THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES.
