Return Reference Explanation
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote Relief International is a nonprofit corporation exempt from federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3) and from state income taxes. Therefore, these financial statements contain no provision for such taxes. Informational returns are filed annually with federal and state taxing authorities. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America prescribe recognition thresholds and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Tax benefits will be recognized only if a tax position is more-likely-than-not sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized will be the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more-likely-than-not test, no tax benefit will be recorded. Management has concluded that they are unaware of any tax benefits or liabilities to be recognized at December 31, 2015 and 2014. Relief International would recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest and income tax expense, respectively. Relief International has no amounts accrued for interest or penalties for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Relief International does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next 12 months.
