INCOME TAXES
CCA and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.
The Company previously adopted the provisions of ASC Subtopic 740-10-25, “Uncertain Tax Positions”. Management believes that there were no unrecognized tax benefits, or tax positions that would result in uncertainty regarding the deductions taken, as of August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015. ASC Subtopic 740-10-25 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.
The charitable contributions portion of the deferred tax asset and the loss carry forward has $174,267 and $8,920,319, respectively, that has been reclassified as a long-term asset, based on an estimate of the amount that will be realizable in periods greater than twelve months from August 31, 2016.
At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2016, respectively, the Company had temporary differences arising from the following:
