        <ExplanationTxt>The Academy is exempt from federal and state income taxes under Internal Revenue Service Code Section 501(c)(3). The Academy is subject to tax on income from any unrelated business. The Academy and the Building Company are subject to recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification 740-10 (formerly known as FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes). Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Academy and the Building Company have analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and the state jurisdiction where it operates. The Academy and the Building Company believe that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and do not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Academy and the Building Companys financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Academy and the Building Company have not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at June 30, 2017.</ExplanationTxt>
