Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“No provision for income taxes is provided as the organization is exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and the colorado income tax act of 1964. As a charitable organization, only unrelated business income, as defined by section 509(a)(2) of the internal revenue code, is subject to federal income tax. The organization had no unrelated business income tax liability at august 31, 2019. The organization has evaluated its tax positions for all open tax years. Currently the years open for tax authority examination by the internal revenue service are 1) its initial filing for the calendar year ended december 31, 2017 and 2) its second filing for fiscal year ended august 31, 2018. However, the organization is not currently under audit nor has it been contacted by this taxing authority. Based on the evaluation of the organization's tax positions, management believes all tax positions taken would be upheld under an examination. Therefore, no provision for the effects of uncertain tax positions have been recorded for the year ended august 31, 2019.”
