Part V, Line 4:Permanently restricted net assets consist of the Judith McManus Price Fund and A. Nielson Fund endowment funds, whereby the Association cannot spend the principal. Investment returns from donor-restricted endowment funds are used for various scholarships.
Part X, Line 2:The Association is exempt from income taxes under the provisions of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state law. The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, the Association 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 Association and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business income tax (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the reporting period presented in the financial statements. The Association files Form 990 and Form 990-T in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Illinois.
