| Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund. | Permanently restricted net assets of $86,312 at September 30, 2014 represent donor contributions that are subject to restrictions of gift instruments requiring that the principal balances be maintained in perpetuity. By law, Walden is permitted to transfer all interest and realized/unrealized gains to unrestricted net assets. |
| Part X : FIN48 Footnote | Income TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, Walden is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by Walden and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that Walden has adequately addressed all tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. Management believes that Walden has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of September 30, 2015, Walden does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary.Walden has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. There is no legal requirement to obtain tax-exempt status from the state of New Hampshire. The exemptions are subject to periodic review by the federal and California taxing authorities and management is confident that Walden continues to satisfy all federal and state statutes in order to qualify for continued tax exempt status. Walden may periodically receive unrelated business income requiring Walden to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes. Under such conditions, Walden calculates, accrues and remits the applicable taxes. |
