The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the 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 the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a 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 the 2014 fiscal year. The Organization files information tax returns in the U.S. Federal and Illinois jurisdictions. The Organization is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ending prior to June 30, 2011.

A copy of the agency tax return, including required schedules, is provided to each board member, either in paper or electronic form, prior to filing. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c The Center has outlined in their personnel policies conflict of interest language and detailed consequences if violated. A copy of the policy is provided to all employees, when they are hired or the policy is revised, who are required to sign a form acknowledging receipt. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 When a new executive director or other key employee is hired, the board determines the compensation for that person through a process involving data to compare compensation for similarly qualified persons at similar organizations, other research, and approval by the committee. Documentation of the decision and approval are kept. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Center makes all documents available upon request. Form 990, Part XI, line 9: Change in year-end inventory value -15,393. PART XI, LINE 2C The Finance Committee reviews the audit report yearly prior to submission.
