Under that guidance, the CCI may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not thatthe tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax -exempt status of the Organization and various positions related to sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from a tax position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for fiscal year ending 8/31/2016. CCI files its Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and a copy of it with the Office of the State's Attorney General for the State of California. CCI is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California for years before 2012 and 2011, respectively.
