Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
NOTE 11 - INCOME TAXES | NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES The Company maintains deferred tax assets and liabilities that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 consist of net operating loss carryforwards and differences in the book basis and tax basis of intangible assets. The blended Federal and State tax rate of 37.6% applies to loss before taxes. The items accounting for the difference between income taxes at the effective statutory rate and the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:
|  | Years Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Income tax benefit at U.S. statutory rate of 34% |  | $ | (870,948 | ) |  | $ | (790,823 | )
State income taxes |  |  | (92,218 | ) |  |  | (83,734 | )
Non-deductible expenses |  |  | 356,674 |  |  |  | 722,740 |
Change in valuation allowance |  |  | 606,492 |  |  |  | 151,817 |
Total provision for income tax |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
The Company’s approximate net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:
|  | December 31, |

Deferred Tax Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net operating loss carryforward |  | $ | 5,241,802 |  |  | $ | 4,602,442 |
Intangible assets |  |  | 181,338 |  |  |  | 215,206 |

Valuation allowance |  |  | (5,423,140 | ) |  |  | 4,816,648 | )
Net deferred tax assets |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
The net operating loss carryforward was approximately $13,941,000 and $12,240,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the deferred income tax assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 because it was not known whether future taxable income will be sufficient to utilize the loss carryforward and other deferred tax assets. The increase in the valuation allowance was $606,492 in 2016. The potential tax benefit arising from the loss carryforward will expire in years through 2036. Additionally, the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward to offset future taxable income may be subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership changes that could occur in the future in accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. If necessary, the deferred tax assets will be reduced by any carryforward that expires prior to utilization as a result of such limitations, with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. The Company’s 2016, 2015 and 2014 Corporate Income Tax Returns are subject to Internal Revenue Service examination. The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions or events leading to uncertainty in a tax position.
