Form And Line ReferencePart X : FIN48 FootnoteFormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationIncome TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, the Center is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Center 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 the Center has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of December 31, 2022, the Center does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.The Center 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 the Center continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status. The Center is not required to file an annual return with the IRS because it is classified (and therefor exempted) as a church. The Center may periodically receive unrelated business income (such as sublease rental income) requiring the Center to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. If such conditions were to exist, the Center would calculate and accrue the applicable taxes.ExplanationTxt
