Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 totaled $310,766 and $300,501, respectively.
Impairment of Long Lived Assets
The Company assesses whether certain relevant factors limit the period over which acquired assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows for amortization purposes. Under certain conditions the Company may assess the recoverability of the unamortized balance of its long-lived assets based on undiscounted expected future cash flows. Should the review indicate that the carrying value is not fully recoverable; the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of any intangible asset is recognized as an impairment loss. The Company recorded an impairment charge from continuing operations of $0 and $487,562 for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share

There are no outstanding common stock options and/or warrants.
Provision for Income Taxes

Federal and state income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, are summarized as follows:
The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740-10 to account for income taxes. The Company currently has no items creating material temporary differences that would give rise to deferred tax assets or liabilities except as noted above. Net operating losses give rise to possible tax assets in future years. Due to the uncertainty of the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards; a valuation allowance has been made to the extent of any future tax benefit that the net operating losses may generate. A provision for income taxes has not been made due to the deferred tax asset associated with the net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $10,903,000 and $10,279,000 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which may be offset against future taxable income. These net operating loss carry-forwards begin to expire in the year 2020. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements. Tax rates differ from statutory rates due to the uncertainty of the above.
The Company did not have any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.
The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers cash and cash equivalents to be cash in all bank accounts, including money market and temporary investments that have an original maturity of three months or less.
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting, Leases (Topic 840). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after the date of initial adoption, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief. The Company evaluated this potential impact of adopting this guidance and does not believe that it will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on our present or future financial statements. |
