Part X:Description of Uncertain Tax Positions Under FIN 48:In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48") (now referred to as ASC 740-10-25-6, "ASC 740"), "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement 109," which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with the broader concepts previously outlined in ASC 740. The Association adopted this new guidance as of July 1, 2009. This guidance clarifies the accounting for uncertainly in tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, including issues relating to financial statement recognition and measurement. This section provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. The assessment of the tax position is based solely on the technical merits of the position, without regard to the likelihood that the tax position may be challenged. The adoption of this guidance did not have any impact on the Association's financial statements.
