Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment fundsThe endowment's earnings and principal will be used to further the purposes and objectives of California Waterfowl Association, a California corporation exempt from income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnoteCalifornia Waterfowl Association has been granted tax-exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to code section 501(c)(3) and also by the California Revenue and Tax Code Section 23701e. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements. However, the Association files, when necessary, unrelated business income tax returns. The subsidiaries of the Association are not tax-exempt entities but are considered pass-thru entities for tax purposes which are subject to certain minimum tax payments of $800 each in the state of California. The Association and its subsidiaries have accounted for uncertainty in income taxes through the use of a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. The effect of applying this model and the resulting identification of uncertain tax positions, if any, were not considered significant for financial reporting purposes. Management does not anticipate any changes in unrecognized tax benefits or modeling of those benefits in the next twelve months. The Association would recognize any interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Association did not recognize any interest or penalties. The Association is subject to filing of U.S. Federal and California informational returns. Tax returns remain subject to examination in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction for three years after the return is filed and for four years by the California jurisdiction. There are currently no tax years under examination.
