Description of Organization's Collections and How It Furthers Its PurposeSchedule D, Part III, Line 4: Donations of Art - some of which were held per donors' intent and some of which were held for sale.
Intended Uses of Endowment FundsSchedule D, Part V, Line 4: The school intends to use a portion of the investment return from the endowment to support the school's annual operating expenses as directed by donor specifications. The remainder is to be reinvested in the endowment in order to maintain its purchase power value over time.
FIN 48 (ASC 740) Footnote:Schedule D, Part X, Line 2: Thunderbird previously adopted accounting guidance related to uncertain tax positions. In accordance with this guidance, management is required to determine whether a tax position of Thunderbird is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Derecognition of a tax benefit previously recognized could result in Thunderbird recording a tax liability that would reduce net assets. Thunderbird has reviewed all significant tax positions for material tax jurisdictions including the US federal and Arizona state and foreign tax jurisdictions for which the statute of limitations remained open which is generally three years for federal, state and foreign taxes and four years for Arizona. The open tax years are 2011 through 2014 for federal and foreign and 2010 through 2014 for Arizona tax years. Management determined there were no material unrecognized tax benefits. However, the statute can be extended if there was a failure to file a necessary tax return. In addition, there have been no material changes anticipated in the 12 months following June 30, 2014. However, management's conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, ongoing analyses of and chances to tax laws, regulations, and interpretations thereof. There have been no related tax penalties or interest, which would be classified as operating or interest expense in the consolidated statement of activities.
