Form And Line ReferencePart X, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Association evaluates uncertainty in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return based on a more-likely-than-not recognition standard. If that threshold is met, the tax position is then measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement and is recognized in the Association's consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, there are no accruals for uncertain tax positions. If applicable, the Association records interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense. Tax years from 2021 through the current year remain open for examination by tax authorities. Currently, there are no examinations in process.ExplanationTxt
