NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Peregrine Industries, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the period ended July 31, 2022 contained in the Company’s Form 10K originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2022. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim period presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the period ended July 31, 2022, filed on October 31, 2022, as reported in the Company’s Form 10K, have been omitted.

 

Use of Estimates:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

 

Cash, Land and Building

 

On October 28, 2021, Mace Corporation completed the sale of its land and building, located at 9171 W Flamingo Rd., Las Vegas, Nevada. Net proceeds of $632,629, resulting from the sale price of $679,000, were held in escrow and received by the Company on November 2, 2021.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Accounts receivable as of October 31, 2022, and July 31, 2022 were $20,392 and $22,654, respectively. An allowance for doubtful accounts will be provided for those accounts receivable considered to be uncollectable based on historical experience and management’s evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the period. Management has reviewed the current accounts receivable and has concluded that no allowance was necessary as of October 31, 2022 and July 31, 2022. Bad debts will be written off against the allowance when identified.

 

Inventory

 

As at October 31, 2022 and July 31, 2022, respectively, the Company had $736,375 and $784,294 worth of inventory, stated at the lower of cost or market, valued on an average cost basis. The inventory is reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted for and discrepancies. Managements’ evaluation was that $47,356 needed to be fully impaired on October 31, 2022 and no impairment was required on July 31, 2022.

 

Production Molds

 

The building of production molds is outsourced to specialists and is recorded at the total cost to acquire each. The molds are built to specifications that include the number of parts anticipated to be produced. The cost of the mold is depreciated on a straight line basis over 5 years. Cost of repairs and maintenance will be expensed as incurred. The value of each mold is reviewed quarterly and will be impaired, when necessary, based on managements’ valuation of the molds continuing viability. Depreciation of $359,040 has been recorded through October 31, 2022. The molds were totally depreciated so no depreciation was recorded for the three months ended October 31, 2022 compared to $19,852 for the three months ended October 31, 2021.

 

Patents

 

Patent costs consist of the legal fees paid to prepare, file and process the patent applications. Patents will be amortized, utilizing the straight line method, over the useful life of the patent and will be reviewed quarterly to determine if impairment is required. Research and development costs

are not included in the cost of patents, and, are expensed as incurred. Mace paid $2,700 new patent fees during the three months ended October 31, 2022 and determined that $3,725 be impaired compared to $2,600, new patent fees paid during the same three months last year.

 

 Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company follows ASC Topic 740 for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.

 

 

Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

 

The Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. ASC Topic 740 only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. As of July 31, 2020, the Company reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding, or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, therefore this standard has not had a material effect on the Company.

 

The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to its total unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

 

The Company classifies tax-related penalties and net interest as income tax expense. As of October 31, 2022, no income tax expense has been incurred.
