Footnote for uncertain tax position under FIN 48 (Part X) AMA has adopted accounting principles related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. AMAs policy is to record a liability for any tax position taken that is beneficial to AMA, including any related interest and penalties, when it is more likely than not the position taken by management with respect to a transaction or class of transactions will be overturned by a taxing authority upon examination. Penalties and interest related to underpayment of income taxes are not recorded as income taxes but as penalties and interest expense. Management believes there are no such positions for either the current year or prior years and, accordingly, no liability has been accrued. true South America 1 1 Program services Spiritual developmen 33801 Central America and the Caribbean 3 39 Program services Churchesschool sup 394314 Central America and the Caribbean Grant making 200463 Sub-Saharan Africa 2 46 Program services Churchesliterature 1085757 Sub-Saharan Africa Grant making 35887 South America Grant making 51923 6 86 6 86 1802145 1802145 Sub-Saharan Africa General operations 9903 Bank transfers 8647 Various supplies etc Estimated value Central America and the Caribbean Gereral operations 61137 Bank transfers Central America and the Caribbean General operations 102372 Bank transfers Central America and the Caribbean General operations 31901 Bank transfers 4 Economic and other aid Sub-Saharan Africa 4638 5368 Bank transfers 9969 Supplies books etc Estimated value Economic and other aid South America 48667 Real estate Book false false false false false false Use of grant monitoring procedures (Part I, line 2) AMA requires financial accountability from most grantees and also performs periodic on-site reviews with recipients of financial assistance.
