ExplanationAccounting standards require the CMO to evaluate tax positions and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the CMO has taken an uncertain tax position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The CMO has analyzed the tax positions taken and has concluded that as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require the recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The CMO may be subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.ExplanationTxt
