Part V, Line 4:Vermont Academy uses endowment funds in several ways-specific funds for stated purposes are used for those purposes-promoting the program as stated by the donor. Most funds that are specifically directed are directed to financial aid/scholarship and those funds are used for financial aid scholarship. Finally any unspecified funds are used for general support of the school and generally would be considered to have been spent on financial aid for which the school spends approximately 2,700,000 per year.
Part X, Line 2:The Academy qualifies as an organization exempt from income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no tax provisions have been made in the accompanying financial statements. ASC Subtopic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, addresses the accounting uncertainty of income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a threshold of "more-likely-than-not" for recognition and derecognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Subtopic 740-10 also provides guidance on measurement classification, interest and penalties and disclosure. The Academy has determined that the provisions of Subtopic 740-10 do not have a material effect on the Academy's financial statements. The Academy belives it is no longer subject to examinations for years prior to 2014.
