NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income tax using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets on December 31, 2024 and 2023 consist only of net operating loss carryforwards. The net deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance because of the uncertainty of the attainment of future taxable income.

 

The items accounting for the difference between income taxes at the effective statutory rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

 

  

Year Ended

December 31, 2024

  

Year Ended

December 31, 2023

 
         
Income tax benefit at U.S. statutory rate   (21.00)%   (21.00)%
Income tax benefit – State   (6.50)%   (6.50)%
Permanent items   0.8%   10.6%
Deferred tax true up   -%   29.5%
Effect of change in valuation allowance   26.7%   (12.6)%
Effective income tax rate   0.00%   0.00%

 

The Company’s approximate net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:

 

   December 31, 2024   December 31, 2023 
Deferred Tax Asset:          
Net operating loss carryover  $12,492,318   $11,471,375 
Less: valuation allowance   (12,492,318)   (11,471,375)
Net deferred tax asset  $-   $- 

 

The net operating loss carryforward was approximately $47,933,000 on December 31, 2024. The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred income tax asset as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 because it was not known whether future taxable income will be sufficient to utilize the loss carryforward. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the valuation allowance increased by $1,020,943. Additionally, the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward to offset future taxable income is subject to an annual limitation as a result of ownership changes that may occur in the future. The 2017 estimated loss carry forward of $120,600 expires on December 31, 2037. Subsequent to 2017, all estimated loss carry forwards may be carried forward indefinitely subject to annual usage limitations.

 

The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions or events leading to uncertainty in a tax position. The Company’s 2020 to 2024 Corporate Income Tax Returns are subject to Internal Revenue Service examination.
