Identifier Return Reference Explanation
IV   NEI administers voluntary programs for its members. NEI acts as a fiscal agent for the programs and has no control over the disbursement of the funds. Therefore, NEI does not recognize revenue or expenses in its statement of activities and changes in net assets for these programs. Funds received by NEI for which disbursement have not yet been paid are presented as funds held for others in the audited statement of financial position.
X 2 NEI adopted a new accounting policy in 2009 required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, that requires that uncertain tax positions be evaluated and the potential impact of an unfavorable outcome of a tax authoritys assessment of such uncertain tax position be reflected in the financial statements.
X 2 Continued From time to time, management must assess the need to accrue or disclose a possible loss contingency for proposed adjustments from various federal and state tax authorities who may audit the organization in the normal course of business. NEI has evaluated its tax reporting and has not reflected any contingent liability for any such potential assessment.
