NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES:

 

The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets and therefore any impact on the value of the Company’s deferred tax assets will be offset by a change in the valuation allowance, which increased by $13,970 and $17,890 during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Our tax provision is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. The 2022 and 2021 annual effective tax rate is estimated to be a combined 25%, respectively for the U.S. combined federal and state statutory tax rates. We review tax uncertainties in light of changing facts and circumstances and adjust them accordingly. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no tax contingencies or unrecognized tax positions recorded.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting, and the amounts recognized for income tax purposes. The significant components of deferred tax assets (at an approximate 25% effective tax rate) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are as follows:

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the combined U.S federal and state tax rate (25%) for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 due to the following:

The Company has a net operating loss carry forward for federal and state tax purposes of approximately $1,369,000 and $1,313,000 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, that is potentially available to offset future taxable income. The Company, had approximately $2,000 in net operating losses expire in the current year. The Act changes the rules on net operating loss carry forwards. The 20-year limitation was eliminated for losses incurred after January 1, 2018, giving the taxpayer the ability to carry forward losses indefinitely. However, net operating loss carry forward arising after January 1, 2018, will now be limited to 80 percent of taxable income.

 

For financial reporting purposes, no deferred tax asset was recognized because at December 31, 2022 and 2021, management estimates that it is more likely than not that substantially all of the net operating losses will expire unused. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are deductible. The timing and manner in which we can utilize our net operating loss carry forward and future income tax deductions in any year may be limited by provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding the change in ownership of corporations. Such limitation may have an impact on the ultimate realization of our carry forwards and future tax deductions. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 382”) imposes limitations on a corporation’s ability to utilize net operating losses if it experiences an “ownership change.” In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership of certain stockholders in the stock of a corporation by more than 50 percentage points over a three-year period. Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years, and the amount of the limitation may under certain circumstances be increased by the built-in gains in assets held by us at the time of the change that are recognized in the five-year period after the change. Upon review of the ownership shifts, there has not been an ownership change as defined under Section 382.

 

The Company had no uncertain tax positions that would necessitate recording of a tax related liability.

 

The Company’s tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 are open for examination under Federal Statute of Limitations.
