S. Internal Revenue Code and corresponding state tax law. Certain of its activities are subject to tax on net unrelated business income from those activities. Also, certain activities conducted outside the United States are subject to a corporate income tax assessed by the respective governmental authorities. ATP's subsidiary is a taxable entity. ATP is not considered to be a private foundation under Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. ATP has adopted applicable guidance with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit will be recorded. ATP is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2011. ATP does not expect the total amount of unrecorded tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months. ATP recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. ATP did not have any amounts accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2015 and 2014. true Central America and the Caribbean 0 0 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 53088 East Asia and the Pacific 1 23 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 4919396 Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) 2 110 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 39976944 Middle East and North Africa 0 10 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 1675657 North America (Canada & Mexico only) 0 5 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 2326325 Russia and Neighboring States 0 2 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 563576 South America 0 19 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 1874197 South Asia 0 0 Program Services REGIONAL CIRCUIT ADMIN 374248 Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) 0 0 Grantmaking 113981 South Asia 0 0 Grantmaking 15000 Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) 0 0 Investments 215486 East Asia and the Pacific 0 0 Grantmaking 15156 3 169 0 0 3 169 52123054 0 52123054 Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) GENERAL SUPPORT 20386 WIRE TRANSFER Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) GENERAL SUPPORT 18005 WIRE TRANSFER Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) GENERAL SUPPORT 18005 WIRE TRANSFER Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) GENERAL SUPPORT 18005 WIRE TRANSFER Middle East and North Africa GENERAL SUPPORT 16293 WIRE TRANSFER South Asia GENERAL SUPPORT 15000 WIRE TRANSFER Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) GENERAL SUPPORT 8047 WIRE TRANSFER East Asia and the Pacific GENERAL SUPPORT 7650 WIRE TRANSFER East Asia and the Pacific GENERAL SUPPORT 7507 WIRE TRANSFER Europe (Including Iceland and Greenland) GENERAL SUPPORT 5646 WIRE TRANSFER 10 0 false false true false false true Schedule F, Part I, Line 2 Procedures for monitoring use of grant funds Contributions are made only to qualified charities.
