SchD_P05_S00_L04Schedule D, Part V, Line 4The College's endowment consists of approximately 540 individual funds established for a variety of purposes: scholarships, professorships, library, lectureships, research, prizes, and donor specified educational activities. Included in these funds are both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board of Trustees to function as endowments.(From Note 18 of Knox College Financial Statements and Independent Auditor's Report For the Years Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.)
SchD_P10_S00_L02Schedule D, Part X, Line 2NOTE 2 - INCOME TAX STATUS The College is a not-for-profit entity as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is exempt from federal income taxes on related income pursuant to Section 501(a) of the IRC. The College follows the authoritative guidance issued by FASB that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Measurement of the tax uncertainty occurs if the recognition threshold has not been met. This guidance also addresses de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, disclosure, and transition. The College conducts business solely in the U.S. and, as a result, files income tax returns for the United States and Illinois. In the normal course of business, the College is subject to examination by taxing authorities. The College's tax returns for years subsequent to fiscal year 2007 are open, by statute, for review by authorities. However, at present, there are no ongoing income tax audits or unresolved disputes with the various tax authorities that the College currently files or has filed with.
