Therefore, only income from business unrelated to the organizations charitable purpose is subject to federal and state income tax. CASIS follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 740, Income Taxes. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. It also provides guidance for de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of September 30, 2025, CASIS has no uncertain tax provisions that qualify for recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. CASIS believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations prior to September 30, 2022.
