Amount of an unrecognized tax benefit that is directly related to a position taken in a tax year that results in a net operating loss carryforward. This amount is presented as a reduction of the related deferred tax asset in the balance sheet if that deferred tax asset is not used. This amount is presented separately from the deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward if this unrelated tax benefit is associated with a different tax position.
