Part X:Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:The League adopted the Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes accounting standard which requires the League to determine whether a tax position (and the related tax benefit) is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, based solely 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 settlement, presuming that the tax position is examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. Based on its continued analysis, the League has determined that the adoption of the standard does not have a material impact on its financial statements
