Income Taxes | NOTE 10 — INCOME TAXES The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. After consideration of all of the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the change in the valuation allowance was $240,203 and $1,210,347, respectively. Internal Revenue Section 195 requires start-up expenditures paid or incurred in connection with investigating the creation or acquisition of an active trade or business to be capitalized for income tax purposes. The capitalized start-up expenditures are placed into service in the month in which an active trade or business begins and amortized ratably over 180 months. The start-up expenditures do not include interest, taxes, or research and experimental expenses. The tax calculations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 took all of the aforementioned Section 195 guidelines into account. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the total provision for income taxes was $914,318 and $757,069, respectively. The Company’s net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2023 and 2022, are as follows:
|  | December 31, 2023 |  |  | December 31, 2022 |
