Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.Endowment funds are permanently restricted investments in perpetuity, the income from which is expendable for programming and operations.
Part X : FIN48 FootnoteIncome TaxesFinancial statement presentation follows the recommendations of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under ASC 740, the Foundation is required to report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Foundation and requires a two-step process that separates recognition from measurement. The first step is determining whether a tax position has met the recognition threshold; the second step is measuring a tax position that meets the recognition threshold. Management believes that the Foundation has adequately evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of September 30, 2015, the Foundation does not have any uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or an accrual for a tax liability would be necessary. The Foundation may periodically receive unrelated business income requiring the organization to file separate tax returns under federal and state statutes.The Foundation has received notification from the Internal Revenue Service and the State of California that it qualifies for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. This exemption is subject to periodic review by the federal taxing authorities and management is confident that the organization continues to satisfy all federal astatutes in order to qualify for continued tax exemption status.
