Supplemental Narrative
Additional Explanations
Form 990, Part III, Line 4D: Other Program Services Description
“OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: and on college campuses. Adult programs include corporate team building, personal development workshops and lectures for professional groups and community organizations. Our newest program, "Wild Teachers for Youth," is a collaborative effort with some of the most innovative teen intervention programs in Northern California. We work with at-risk teens at our 120-acre Wildlife Sanctuary where the animals become the therapists.Wildlife Associates has reached over 7 million students since its inception in 1980, and has grown to become the largest educational outreach program of its kind in North America.”
Financial Statement Notes
Part X : FIN48 Footnote
“Income TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, Wildlife Associates is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by Wildlife Associates and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that Wildlife Associates has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of August 31, 2015, Wildlife Associates does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.Wildlife Associates has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that Wildlife Associates continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status. Wildlife Associates may periodically receive unrelated business income (such as sublease rental income and advertising revenue) requiring Wildlife Associates to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. Under such conditions, Wildlife Associates calculates and accrues the applicable taxes.”

| IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Income TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, Wildlife Associates is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by Wildlife Associates and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that Wildlife Associates has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of August 31, 2015, Wildlife Associates does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.Wildlife Associates has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and state taxing authorities and management is confident that Wildlife Associates continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status. Wildlife Associates may periodically receive unrelated business income (such as sublease rental income and advertising revenue) requiring Wildlife Associates to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. Under such conditions, Wildlife Associates calculates and accrues the applicable taxes. |
