SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
CASH
 
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and on deposit at banking institutions as well as all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. The Company did not have cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.
 
PREPAID ASSET
 
Prepaid asset represents commitment fee owed by the Company to a certain investor in respect of a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by the Company dated October 18, 2016. The Company has issued a convertible promissory note in respect of the commitment fee. The prepaid asset will be amortized using the straight-line method over the period of draw-down.
 
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
The Company operates an online chess site featuring sophisticated playing zones, game broadcasts with software analyses and top analysts' commentaries, education and other chess oriented resources. Intangible assets represents the amount incurred by the Company related to the development of the online chess gaming website.
 
Under ASC 985-20, there are two main stages of software development. These stages are defined as:
 
(A) When the technological feasibility is established, and
(B) When the product is available for general release to customers.
 
Costs incurred by the Company up to stage A have been expensed while costs incurred to move from stage A to stage B have been capitalized.
 
The Company evaluates the recoverability of the infinite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of intangible assets is not recoverable, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
In accordance with ASC 605, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been performed, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
 
During the period ended December 31, 2016, the Company earned revenue of $5,918, which comprises an amount of $4,500, as consideration for the arrangement of equipment and personnel to setup and produce a live streaming internet chess show and $1,418 as membership fee for the Company’s chess gaming website.
 
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the application is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. These costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful life of 5 years starting from when the application is substantially complete and ready for its intended use.
 
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of December 31, 2016.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
Under ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2016, there were no deferred taxes due to the uncertainty of the realization of net operating loss or carry forward prior to expiration.
 
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
 
Basic loss per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the loss of the entity. Convertible promissory notes as at December 31, 2016 are likely to be converted into shares, however, due to losses, their effect would be antidilutive. As of December 31, 2016, convertible notes outstanding could be converted into 81,089,744 shares of common stock. 
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
 
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
 
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
 
The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.
