Form And Line ReferencePart X : FIN48 FootnoteFormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Internal Revenue Service has determined that the Association is exempt from federal income tax on activities directly related to its non-profit purpose under section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). In addition, income from certain activities not directly related to the Associations tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The Association did not engage in any unrelated business activities during the year ended December 31, 2018.The Association has adopted the authoritative guidance relating to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes included in ASC Topic Income Taxes. These provisions provide consistent guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entitys financial statements and prescribe a threshold of more likely than not for recognition and de-recognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Association performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions for the year ended December 31, 2018, and determined that there were no material matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or that may have an effect on its tax-exempt status. As of December 31, 2018, that statute of limitations for tax years 2015, 2016, and 2017 remain open with the Internal Revenue Service. It is the Associations policy to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in income tax expense.ExplanationTxt
