ExplanationThe Organization is exempt from income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is classified as other than a private foundation. However, income from certain activities (primarily rental income on debt financed property) not directly related to the Organizations tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. As of December 31, 2013, the Organization had a cumulative unrelated business net operating loss of approximately $724. The Organization has determined that it is likely that the net operating loss will be realized and, therefore, has recognized a deferred tax asset $181.Management has reviewed all tax positions recognized in previously filed tax returns in the U.S. federal and state jurisdictions and those expected to be taken in future tax returns. As of December 31, 2013, the Organization had no amounts related to unrecognized income tax benefits and no amounts related to accrued interest and penalties. The Organization does not anticipate any significant changes to unrecognized income tax benefits over the next year. The Organization is currently not under audit by any federal or state taxing authority and is no longer subject to tax examinations by the U.S. federal jurisdiction for years prior to 2010 and the state jurisdiction for years prior to 2009.ExplanationTxt
