ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, an organization must recognize the tax benefit associated with tax positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained. Theatre Under The Stars does not believe there are any material uncertain tax positions and, accordingly, it has not recognized any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. Theatre Under The Stars has filed for and received income tax exemptions in the jurisdictions where it is required to do so. Additionally, Theatre Under The Stars has filed Internal Revenue Service Form 990, as required, and all other applicable returns in jurisdictions where it is required. However, Theatre Under The Stars is still open to examination by taxing authorities for the current year and the prior three years. For the years ended August 30, 2015 and 2014, no interest or penalties were required to be recorded or included in the consolidated statements of activities related to uncertain tax positions.
