Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“Pacific Living Alternatives and its affiliates are exempt from federal income and excise taxes and California franchise taxes as an organization described under Section 501( c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and related state codes. However, Pacific Living Alternatives is subject to income taxes on any net income that is derived from a trade or business, regularly carried on and not in the furtherance of the purpose for which it was granted exemption. No income tax provision has been recorded as the net income, if any, from any unrelated trade or business, in the opinion of management, is not material to the combined financial statements taken as a whole. Pacific Living Alternatives recognizes the impact of tax positions on the financial statements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." ASC Topic No. 740 ("ASC 740") clarifies the uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statement in accordance with FASB Statements No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," and prescribes a recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, disclosure and transition. During the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, Pacific Living Alternatives performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions and did not note any matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or which may have an effect on its tax-exempt status.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Pacific Living Alternatives and its affiliates are exempt from federal income and excise taxes and California franchise taxes as an organization described under Section 501( c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and related state codes. However, Pacific Living Alternatives is subject to income taxes on any net income that is derived from a trade or business, regularly carried on and not in the furtherance of the purpose for which it was granted exemption. No income tax provision has been recorded as the net income, if any, from any unrelated trade or business, in the opinion of management, is not material to the combined financial statements taken as a whole. Pacific Living Alternatives recognizes the impact of tax positions on the financial statements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." ASC Topic No. 740 ("ASC 740") clarifies the uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statement in accordance with FASB Statements No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," and prescribes a recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, disclosure and transition. During the years ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, Pacific Living Alternatives performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions and did not note any matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or which may have an effect on its tax-exempt status.
