NOTE C - NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS AND SHARE BASED AWARDS

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-01, Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash-a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force,(Topic 505). This Accounting Standards Update clarifies that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in EPS prospectively and is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 (Equity and Earning Per Share). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-01 on the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

Earnings Per Common Share:

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 260 (formerly, SFAS No. 128), “Earnings Per Share”. ASC 260 simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share (EPS) and makes them comparable to international EPS standards. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted. Net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Basic and diluted loss per common share was calculated using the following number of shares for the three months ended September 30:

    2011   2010
         
  Weighted average number of common shares outstanding 1,561,022   1,561,022

 

 

Share Based Awards:

 

The company adopted “Share-Based Payment” FASB ASC 718 (formerly, FAS 123(R)), ASC 718 requires expense for all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. For the Company, this statement was effective as of April 1, 2006. The Company adopted the modified prospective method, under which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date. The modified prospective method recognizes compensation cost based on the requirements of ASC 718 for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and, based on the requirements of ASC 718, for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date that remain unvested on the effective date. The Company does not expect to record any significant expenses under ASC 718 for options currently outstanding. However, the amount of expense recorded under ASC 718 will depend upon the number of options granted in the future and their valuation.
