Part X, Line 2:	According to the Internal Revenue Service, Junior Achievement of Chicago is considered a subordinate organization of Junior Achievement USA and is recognized as a 501(c)(3) organization and is entitled to all rights of a 501(c)(3) organization. Junior Achievement of Chicago considers whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements and may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of Junior Achievement of Chicago and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the reporting periods presented in the financial statements. Junior Achievement of Chicago annually files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the States of Illinois and Indiana.
