| Return Reference | Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48: | ReturnReference |
| Explanation | In September of 2009, the Organization adopted the provisions of the Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes Topic of the FASB ASC, which clarifies the accounting and recognition for income tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in the Organization's income tax returns. As a result of this adoption, the Organization believes there was no impact to the financial statements and did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of net assets on the statement of financial position. All tax returns have been appropriately filed by the Organization. The Organization recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The Organization files income tax returns with federal and state jurisdictions. The Organization's open audit periods are 2006 to 2009. Management evaluated the Organization's tax positions and concluded that the Organization had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustments to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance. | Explanation |
