NOTE 10 — Taxes

 

Income tax expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the deferred income tax amounts shown on the Company’s Balance Sheets, are related entirely to the deferred tax liability on the portion of the Company’s goodwill amortized for tax purposes. Due to the indefinite characteristic of this deferred tax liability, it cannot be offset against deferred tax assets. As a result, the Company recognized deferred tax expense of $7,985 and $23,955, in each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

 

At December 31, 2014, the Company has an unrecognized tax benefit of approximately $730,000, which did not change significantly during the three months ended September 30, 2015. Future changes in the unrecognized tax benefit are unlikely to have an impact on the effective tax rate due to the full valuation allowance recorded on the Company’s deferred tax assets, as realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon future taxable income.
