The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that requires tax effects from uncertain tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by the taxing authority. Management has determined that there are no material uncertain positions that require recognition in the financial statements. The Society is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The fiscal years ended 2016, 2017, and 2018 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes.
