The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Association may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Association and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The Association was not subject to UBIT for the year ended.The Association files form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction. The Association is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service three years after the forms were timely filed. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6 MCPA has four classes of members: regular members, associate members, student members, and honorary members.
