Return Reference Explanation
Financial Statement Footnote - Collections Schedule D, Part III, Line 1a: THE MUSEUM IS PRESENTLY, AND FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE, A NON-COLLECTING INSTITUTION. THE MUSEUM'S PERMANENT COLLECTIONS CONSIST OF ART DONATED IN ITS EARLIER HISTORY AS THE JEWISH COMMUNITY MUSEUM. THESE WORKS OF ART WERE ACQUIRED THROUGH PURCHASES OR CONTRIBUTIONS AND ARE NOT RECOGNIZED AS ASSETS IN THE ACCOMPANYING STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION. EACH WORK OF ART IS INVENTORIED AND CARED FOR, AND ACTIVITIES VERIFYING THE COLLECTIONS' INTEGRITY ARE PERFORMED. PURCHASES OF ART (ACCESSIONS) ARE RECORDED AS DECREASES IN THE APPROPRIATE NET ASSET CLASS IN THE YEAR IN WHICH THE ITEMS ARE ACQUIRED. PROCEEDS FROM DEACCESSIONS OR INSURANCE RECOVERIES ARE REQUIRED TO BE USED TO ACQUIRE OTHER WORKS OF ART. SUCH PROCEEDS ARE REFLECTED AS INCREASES IN THE APPROPRIATE NET ASSET CLASS. THERE WERE NO ACCESSIONS OR DEACCESSIONS OF WORKS OF ART DURING THE FISCAL YEARS THAT ENDED JUNE 30, 2019 AND 2018.
Description of the Organization's Collections SCHEDULE D, PART III, LINE 4: THE MUSEUM IS A NON-COLLECTING INSTITUTION. THE EXISTING COLLECTION CONSISTS OF DIFFERENT FORMS OF JUDAICA. THESE PIECES ARE OCCASIONALLY DISPLAYED IN EXHIBITIONS WHICH OFFER EDUCATION IN JEWISH ART AND CULTURE.
INTENDED USES OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS SCHEDULE D, PART V, LINE 4: THE ORGANIZATION MAINTAINS ENDOWMENTS AS A MEANS TO PROVIDE A PREDICTABLE STREAM OF FUNDING TO SUPPORT ITS PROGRAMS.
FIN 48 (ASC 740) Footnote SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2: THE MUSEUM FOLLOWS GUIDANCE THAT CLARIFIES THE ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN A TAX RETURN, INCLUDING ISSUES RELATING TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT RECOGNITION AND MEASUREMENT. THIS GUIDANCE PROVIDES THAT THE TAX EFFECTS FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION CAN ONLY BE RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 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 MUSEUM IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAX UNDER IRC SECTION 501(C)(3), THOUGH IT IS SUBJECT TO TAX ON INCOME UNRELATED TO ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE, UNLESS THAT INCOME IS OTHERWISE EXCLUDED BY THE CODE. THE MUSEUM HAS ALSO BEEN RECOGNIZED BY THE FRANCHISE TAX BOARD AS AN ORGANIZATION THAT IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAX PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA REVENUE AND TAX CODE SECTION 23701(D) ON ITS INCOME OTHER THAN UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME. THE MUSEUM HAS PROCESSES PRESENTLY IN PLACE TO ENSURE THE MAINTENANCE OF ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS; TO IDENTIFY AND REPORT UNRELATED INCOME; TO DETERMINE ITS FILING AND TAX OBLIGATIONS IN JURISDICTIONS FOR WHICH IT WAS NEXUS; AND TO IDENTIFY AND EVALUATE OTHER MATTERS THAT MAY BE CONSIDERED TAX POSITIONS. THE MUSEUM HAS DETERMINED THAT THERE ARE NO MATERIAL UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT REQUIRE RECOGNITION OR DISCLOSURE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
