IdentifierDescription of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:Identifier
Return ReferencePart X:ReturnReference
ExplanationTHIRD WAY adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 requires that a tax position be recognized on a "more-likely-than-not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The implementation of FIN 48 had no impact on the organization's audited statements of financial position or statements of activities. The organization does not believe its financial statements include (or reflect) any uncertain tax positions.Explanation
