| Form And Line Reference | Part X, Line 2: | FormAndLineReferenceDesc |
| Explanation | The Educational Testing Service Retiree Medical and Life Insurance Benefit Plan (Retiree Trust) is intended to meet the qualification requirements pursuant to Section 501(c)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), and, accordingly, the net investment income of the Retiree Trust is exempt from income taxes. The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has determined in a letter dated October 10, 1995, that the Plan and Retiree Trust are designed in accordance with the applicable sections of the Code. However, as a result of the Plan's funding policy, the Retiree Trust may be subject to income taxes. No federal or state income taxes are required to be recorded for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 for unrelated business taxable income. ETS believes that the Retiree Trust continues to be a tax-exempt trust and operates in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code. ETS evaluated the Plan's tax positions and concluded that the Retiree Trust maintained its tax-exempt status and there are no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements. Therefore, no provision or liability for income taxes is required in the financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Plan is subject to routine examinations by taxing jurisdictions; and, there are no examinations for any open tax periods in progress. | ExplanationTxt |
