Note G – Income Taxes

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

 

Deferred tax assets and valuation allowance at December 31, 2019 and 2018:

 

   2019   2018 
         
Net loss carry-forward  $5,741,471   $5,384,612 
Valuation allowance   (5,741,471)   (5,384,612)
Deferred Tax Assets  $-   $- 

 

A provision for income taxes has not been made due to net operating loss carry-forwards of $18,317,084 at December 31, 2019, which may be offset against future taxable income through 2037. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements.

 

The actual provision for income tax differs from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 as follows:

 

   2019   2018 
         
Provision (benefit) at US statutory rate of 21%  $356,859   $379,154 
Change in valuation allowance   (356,859)   (379,154)
           
Provision for income tax  $-   $- 

 

Current accounting guidance requires the Company to provide a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax impacts related to the sustainability of tax positions taken in current and prior periods.

 

As of December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

 

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

 

The tax years that remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions are those for the years ended December 31, 2016, through the present.
