Schedule D, Part II, Line 5 Conservation easements policyThe policy covers: Exotic vegetation removal and control, Annual maintenance, General maintenance, Monitoring and Inspections.
Schedule D, Part II, Line 9 Conservation easements financial reportingThe organization reports the land on the balance sheet as a current asset. If any third party environmental company fees for services are incurred, they would be reported as fees for services on the income statement. There were no fees incurred in 2015.
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment fundsEndowment funds can be used to support the general operations and program services of Avow Hospice.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnoteThe Organization is exempt from income taxes on income from related activities under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and corresponding state tax law. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or state income taxes. U.S. GAAP requires that a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. Due to its tax-exempt status, the Organization is not subject to U.S. federal income tax or state income tax. The Organization's Form 990 has not been subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service or the State of Florida for the last three years. The Organization does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months. The Organization recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Organization did not have any amounts accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
