Liability for Uncertain Tax Position (ASC 740) SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2 TAX EXEMPT STATUS The ORGANIZATION IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE . FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, establishes the criterion that an individual tax position has to meet for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in the Organization's COMBINED financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Organization is required to determine that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain its tax position following an IRS audit. The Organization has adopted the provisions of ASC 740 and has applied this criterion to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remains open. Tax years open to examination by tax authorities under the statute of limitations include fiscal 2012 through 2015. The Organization has determined that its tax provisions satisfy the more likely than not criterion and that no provision for income taxes is required as of June 30, 2015 for uncertain tax positions.
