Audited Financial Statements Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Financial Instruments, page F-8 6. We note your statement that it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company`s investment in the common stock of iPoint- Media Ltd. because of the lack of quoted market prices and the inability to estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. In light of the lack of fair value information, tell us how you determined that the investment was not impaired. In this regard, we note from iPoint`s Form SB-2 filed on July 1, 2005 that iPoint has sustained operating losses, expects such losses to continue in the foreseeable future, has not generated sufficient revenues to achieve profitable operations or positive cash flow from operations, has a working capital deficiency and an accumulated deficit, the relationship from which iPoint derived 96% of its revenues in 2004 was terminated, and the independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about iPoint`s ability to continue as going concern. Address how you considered the guidance in SFAS No. 144. Shipping and Handling Fees, page F-10 7. We note that shipping and handling costs are netted in cost of goods sold. Tell us how your accounting complies with Issue 1 of EITF 00-10 which states that shipping and handling fees should be classified as revenue. Include a schedule of all shipping and handling costs incurred and passed through to customers for the past two years in your response. * * * * You may contact Steven Williams, at (202) 551-3478 or Melissa Walsh, at (202) 551-3224 you have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related matters.
