Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Financial statement asc 740 footnote: the organization is exempt from income taxes under both federal internal revenue code section 501(c)(3) and arizona income tax laws, and is classified as other than a private foundation under internal revenue code section 509(a)(2). Income from certain activities not directly related to the organization's tax-exempt purpose, however, may be subject to taxation as unrelated business taxable income (ubti). The organization is required to file informational returns for federal and state purposes and, if it has ubti, federal and state income tax returns. Management has performed its evaluation of tax positions taken for all open tax years and has determined that there were no positions taken that do not meet the "more likely than not" standard. From time to time, the organization may be subject to penalties and interest assessed by various taxing authorities, which will be classified as administration, if they occur.”
