Note 19 - Income Tax

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $5,900,000 of federal net operating losses. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2025.

 

The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were assuming a 21% effective tax rate. The effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 consisted of the following:

 

    December 31,  
    2020     2019  
Federal statutory income tax rate     21 %     21 %
State income taxes     -%       -%  
Change in valuation allowance     (21 )%     (21 )%
Net effective income tax rate     -       -  

 

The components of the Company’s deferred tax asset are as follows:

 

    December 31,  
    2020     2019  
Deferred tax assets:                
Net operating loss carry forwards   $ 1,239,000     $ 908,350  
                 
Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance   $ 1,239,000     $ 908,350  
Less: Valuation allowance     (1,239,000 )     (908,350 )
Net deferred tax assets   $ -     $ -  

 

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 740, the Company has evaluated its tax positions and determined there are no uncertain tax positions.
