DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

NOTE 8 - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that may affect the fair values of its financial instruments. The Company utilizes various types of financing to fund our business needs, including convertible debts with conversion features and other instruments not indexed to our stock. The convertible notes include fluctuating conversion rates. The Company uses a lattice model for valuation of the derivative. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in income in accordance with ASC 815. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether net cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within the 12 months of the balance sheet date. 

The Company, in prior year ended March 31, 2013, issued convertible notes payable that provide for the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company's common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company's common stock. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable is not able to be determined definitively, the equity environment is tainted and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date.

The fair values of the Company's derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date, using a lattice model. The Company eliminated the derivative as of March 31, 2013. As a result, the loss on derivative liabilities was $-0- and $205,271 as of September 30, 2013 and 2012.
