Form And Line ReferencePART X, LINE 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationDISCOVERY IS A LOUISIANA NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION UNDER SECTION 509(A)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE THAT HAS BEEN GRANTED AN EXEMPTION FROM THE PAYMENT OF INCOME TAXES UNDER SECTION 503(C)(3) AND HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO BE OTHER THAN A PRIVATE FOUNDATION. DISCOVERY'S MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT DISCOVERY CONTINUES TO OPERATE IN A MANNER THAT PRESERVES ITS TAX EXEMPT STATUS. UPON ITS FORMATION IN 2011, DISCOVERY ADOPTED A STANDARD RELATING TO THE ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES. THE TAX EFFECT FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION CAN BE RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, ONLY IF THE POSITION IS MORE LIKELY THAN NOT TO BE SUSTAINED ON AUDIT, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION. DISCOVERY RECOGNIZES THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT BENEFITS OF A TAX POSITION ONLY AFTER DETERMINING THAT THE RELEVANT TAX AUTHORITY WOULD BE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT SUSTAIN THE POSITION FOLLOWING AN AUDIT. FOR TAX POSITIONS MEETING THE MORE LIKELY THAN NOT THRESHOLD, THE AMOUNT RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IS THE LARGEST BENEFIT THAT HAS A GREATER THAN 50 PERCENT LIKELIHOOD OF BEING REALIZED, UPON ULTIMATE SETTLEMENT WITH THE RELEVANT TAX AUTHORITY. AT THE ADOPTION DATE, DISCOVERY APPLIED THE NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD TO ALL TAX POSITIONS FOR WHICH THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS REMAINED OPEN. DISCOVERY WAS NOT REQUIRED TO MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENT TO BEGINNING NET ASSETS AS A RESULT OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ACCOUNTING STANDARD.ExplanationTxt
