It requires an entity to recognize the financial statement impact of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, management believes the Foundation and its Subsidiaries have no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Tax years ended June 30, 2014 and later remain subject to examination by taxing authorities. Part XI, Line 2d - Other Adjustments: Revenues reported by Yescom 3,760,243.
