PART X, LINE 2:The LIBRARY adopted the provision of ASC 740, "Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes," on January 1, 2009. Under ASC 740, an organization must recognize the tax benefit associated with tax positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained. The implementation of ASC 740 had no impact on the LIBRARYs financial statements. The LIBRARY does not believe there are any material uncertain tax positions and, accordingly, it has not recorded any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The LIBRARY has filed for and received income tax exemptions in the jurisdictions where it is required to do so. Additionally, the LIBRARY has filed the Internal Revenue Service Form 990 tax returns as required, and all other applicable returns in jurisdictions where so required. For the year ended June 30, 2017, there was no interest or penalties recorded or included in the statement of activities. The LIBRARY is subject to routine audits by a taxing authority. As of June 30, 2017, the LIBRARY was not subject to any examination by a taxing authority. For the year ended June 30, 2017, the LIBRARY had no unrelated business income.
