Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:Part X:As of June 30, 2012, the School had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The School's Federal tax returns for the past three years are open and subject to examination by the IRS.
For GAAP purposes, scholarship and financial aid, $59,343, is charged directly to revenue, as a reduction in Tuition and fees. For the 990 presentation the scholarship and financial aid is not reported against revenue but is listed as an expense. For GAAP purposes, unrealized losses, $9,325, reduce revenue but the 990 ignores this revenue reduction.
