Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

The organization follows accounting for uncertainty in income taxes which requires them to determine whether a tax position (and the related tax benefit) is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, based solely on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon settlement, presuming that the tax position is examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. During the year ended september 30, 2017, the organization's management evaluated its tax positions to determine the existence of uncertainties, and did not note any matters that would require recognition or which may have an affect on its tax-exempt status.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE ORGANIZATION FOLLOWS ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES WHICH REQUIRES THEM TO DETERMINE WHETHER A TAX POSITION (AND THE RELATED TAX BENEFIT) IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED UPON EXAMINATION BY THE APPLICABLE TAXING AUTHORITY, BASED SOLELY ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. THE TAX BENEFIT TO BE RECOGNIZED IS MEASURED AS THE LARGEST AMOUNT OF BENEFIT THAT IS GREATER THAN FIFTY PERCENT LIKELY OF BEING REALIZED UPON SETTLEMENT, PRESUMING THAT THE TAX POSITION IS EXAMINED BY THE APPROPRIATE TAXING AUTHORITY THAT HAS FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ALL RELEVANT INFORMATION. DURING THE YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017, THE ORGANIZATION'S MANAGEMENT EVALUATED ITS TAX POSITIONS TO DETERMINE THE EXISTENCE OF UNCERTAINTIES, AND DID NOT NOTE ANY MATTERS THAT WOULD REQUIRE RECOGNITION OR WHICH MAY HAVE AN AFFECT ON ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS.
