Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Global zero action is exempt from federal income tax under the provisions of section 501(c)(4) of the internal revenue code and is classified as a social welfare organization and may engage in some political activities, so long as that is not its primary activity. However, any expenditure made for political activities may be subject to tax under section 527(f) of the internal revenue code. No provision for income taxes is required for the years ended december 31, 2021 and 2020 since beyond the bomb had no taxable income from unrelated business activities and did not incur any expenditures for political activities subject to taxation. The income tax position taken by the organization for any years open under the various statutes of limitations are that the organization continues to be exempt from income taxes and that they have properly reported unrelated business income that is subject to income taxes. The organization believes that there are no tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would significantly increase unrecognized tax liabilities within 12 months of the reporting date. None of the organization's federal or state income tax returns are currently under examinations.”
