Part X : FIN48 Footnote The Organizations activities are generally exempt from federal and state income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701(d) of the California Franchise Tax Code, however, any unrelated business activities would be subject to income tax. Management has determined that there was no unrelated business income for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The organization is classified by the Internal Revenue Service as other than a private foundation. Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements. All tax-exempt entities are subject to review and audit by federal, state, and other applicable agencies. With few exceptions, the organization is no longer subject to federal income tax examinations for years prior to 2015 or state income tax examinations for years prior to 2014.
