Footnote for uncertain tax position under FIN 48 (Part X)The Society follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification, which provides guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Societys financial statements, if any. As of the current year end, the Society had no unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions in its information return that would qualify for either recognition or disclosure in its financial statements.The Societys policy would be to recognize interest and penalties on tax positions related to its unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the financial statements. Through the fiscal year end, there have been no matters that would have resulted in an accrual for interest and/or penalties. Generally, only the three preceeding tax years are subject to examination by federal, state, or local taxing authorities.
