Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 7 INCOME TAXES U.S. Federal Corporate Income Tax The Company uses an asset and liability approach for accounting and reporting for income taxes that allows recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for 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. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. At December 31, 2024, the Company had available Federal and state net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future taxable income. As of December 31, 2024, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $38 million which will begin to expire in 2025. We also have Arizona net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $ 12.0 million which expire after five years. These carryforwards have been utilized in the determination of the deferred income taxes for financial statement purposes. Given the Company’s history of net operating losses, management has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize the tax benefit of the carryforwards. Accordingly, The Company has not recognized a deferred tax asset for this benefit. Section 382 generally limits the use of NOLs and credits following an ownership change, which occurs when one or more 5 percent shareholders increase their ownership, in aggregate, by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of stock owned by such shareholders at any time during the “testing period” (generally three years). The Company has adopted FASB guidelines that address the determination of whether lax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, we may recognize the lax benefit from an uncertain lax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. This guidance also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and no adjustment was required at adoption. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2024, and 2023, the Company has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. Additionally, tax years 2021 through 2024 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. Upon the attainment of taxable income by the Company, management will assess the likelihood of realizing the tax benefit associated with the use of the carryforwards and will recognize the appropriate deferred tax asset at that time. The Company’s effective income tax rate differs from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate to loss before income taxes as follows: SCHEDULE OF EFFECTIVE TAX RATE
|  | December 31, 2024 |  |  | December 31, 2023 |
Income tax benefit at federal statutory rate |  |  | (21.0 | )% |  |  | (21,0 | )%
State income tax benefit, net of federal benefit |  |  | (5.0 | )% |  |  | (5.0 | )%
Change in valuation allowance |  |  | 26 | % |  |  | 26.0 | %
Income taxes at effective rate |  |  | - | % |  |  | - | %
Temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and tax credit and operating loss carryforward that create deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: SCHEDULE OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |
Tax Operating Loss Carryforward |  | $ | 9,900,000 |  |  | $ | 7,800,000 |
Unamortized Research and Development Costs |  |  | 207,000 |  |  |  | 175,000 |
Valuation Allowance |  |  | (10,107,000 | ) |  |  | (7,975,000 | )
Deferred Tax Assets, Net |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |
The valuation allowance increased approximately $0.8 million, primarily as a result of the increased net operating losses of our U.S.- based segment. Taiwan (Republic of China) Corporate Tax Sole-Vision Technologies, Inc. is a subsidiary of the Company which is operating in Taiwan as a profit-seeking enterprise. Its applicable corporate income tax rate is 20%. In addition, Taiwan’s corporate tax system allows the government to levy a 10% profit retention tax on undistributed earnings for the prior year. This tax will not be provided if the company distributed the earnings before the ended of the fiscal year. According to the Taiwan corporate income tax (“TCIT”) reporting system, the TCIT sales cut-off base is concurrent with the business tax classified as value-added type (“VAT”) which will be reported to the Ministry of Finance (“MOF”) on a bi-monthly basis. Since the VAT and TCIT are accounted for on a VAT tax basis that recorded all sales on business tax on a VAT tax reporting system, the Company is bound to report the TCIT according to the MOF prescribed tax reporting rules. Under the VAT tax reporting system, sales cut-off did not take the accrual base but rather on a VAT taxable reporting basis. Therefore, when the company adopted US GAAP on accrual basis, the sales cut-off TCIT timing difference which derived from the VAT reporting system will create a temporary sales cut-off timing difference and this difference is reflected in the deferred tax assets or liabilities calculations.
