Accordingly, a loss contingency is recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred as of the date of the financial statements, relative to open tax years, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Open tax years are considered to be the preceding three tax years for Federal and all applicable State returns. The amount recognized is subject to estimate and management judgment with respect to the likely outcome of each uncertain tax position. The amount that is ultimately sustained for an individual uncertain tax position or for all uncertain tax positions in the aggregate could differ from amounts recognized. The Organization has determined that no such liabilities exist as of December 31, 2019.
