Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote The NBCRNA has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that the NBCRNA has been recognized as tax-exempt pursuant to Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code and, except for taxes pertaining to unrelated business income, is exempt from federal and state income taxes. No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements, as the NBCRNA has had no significant unrelated business income. The NBCRNA follows guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. 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 NBCRNA recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and income tax expense, respectively. The NBCRNA has no amounts accrued for interest or penalties as of August 31, 2019 and 2018.
