Holdings and its subsidiaries are taxable entities and account for deferred tax assets and liabilities under the liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary differences that will result in taxable amounts in future years. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and tax operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. With few exceptions, Holdings and its subsidiaries are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for the years before 2014. In the event of any current or future tax assessments, Group has elected to record the income taxes and any related interest and penalties as income tax expense on the consolidated statements of activities." |
