NOTE 8. INCOME TAX

 

The Company did not have any significant deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2017. 

 

The Company’s deferred tax liability is as follows: 

 

Deferred tax liability        
Unrealized gain on marketable securities $ (851 )  
Deferred tax liability $ (851 )  

  

The income tax provision consists of the following: 

 

Federal        
Current $ 373,794    
Deferred   851    
         
State        
Current $    
Deferred      
Income tax provision $ 374,645    

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income.

 

In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

 

A reconciliation of the federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate at December 31, 2018 is as follows:

 

Statutory federal income tax rate 21.0 %  
State taxes, net of federal tax benefit 0.0 %  
Meals and entertainment 0.1 %  
Income tax provision 21.1 %  

  

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction in various state and local jurisdictions and is subject to examination by the various taxing authorities. The Company’s tax returns since inception remain open and subject to examination. The Company considers NewYork to be a significant state tax jurisdiction
