Form And Line ReferencePart X, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Organization is exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Minnesota Statute 290.05. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is included in these financial statements. Because the Organization is a public charity, contributions may qualify for tax deductions by the contributors. However, any unrelated business income may be subject to taxation. Management believes that it is not reasonably possible for any tax position benefits to increase or decrease significantly over the next 12 months. As of December 31, 2016, there were no income tax related accrued interest or penalties recognized in either the statement of financial position or the statement of activities. The Organization files informational returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, in the state of Minnesota, and all other states in which CDF meets the requirements for filing. U.S. federal and state returns prior to 2013 are closed. In addition, the finances and operations of the Organization were still in review by the Minnesota Attorney General's office during 2016. The Organization believes this review was part of a larger review of car donation programs in general. The Organization has fully and promptly answered all the questions from the Minnesota Attorney General's office and is aware of no further questions or concerns regarding its operations.ExplanationTxt
