Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote	The College has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) indicating that it is a tax-exempt organization as provided in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and, except for taxes pertaining to unrelated business income, is exempt from federal and state income taxes. No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements, as the College has had no significant unrelated business income. In accordance with U.S. Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the College recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Based upon this practice the College, as of August 31, 2016 and 2015, has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
