| Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48: | Part X, Line 2: | The Society is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state law, except for taxes pertaining to unrelated business income, if any. The Society has adopted the accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under this guidance, the Society 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 Society and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income. During fiscal year 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities. The Society files Forms 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois. The Society is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2010. |
