To provide maintenance for the gardens. Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Arboretum is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) as an organization described in IRC Section 501(c)(3). Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made related to the Arboretum. However, should the Arboretum engage in activities unrelated to the purpose for which it was created, taxable income could result. The Arboretum has not incurred any material federal income tax for the year ended December 31, 2018.GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Organizations tax returns and recognition of a tax liability (or asset) if the Organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Organization, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2018, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements.
