Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates required to be made by management include recognition of revenue for work completed and unbilled to customers, the allowance for doubtful accounts, and the valuation of License Agreements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The Company believes that funds generated from operations, together with existing cash and cash infusions by major stockholders will be sufficient to finance its operations for the next twelve months, but are likely to be insufficient to fund significant growth. The Company raised $665,000 and $350,000 in gross capital in 2017 and 2018, respectively, and, over time, expects to seek additional capital to cover any working capital needs, and to fund growth initiatives in its identified markets. However, there can be no assurance that any new debt or equity financing arrangement will be available to the Company when needed on acceptable terms, if at all.  The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to raise funds, collect accounts receivable, and generate revenue.

 

Unaudited Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.

 

Cash

 

The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions it invests with. From time to time, however briefly, the Company maintains balances in operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Receivables are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. At both June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, an allowance for doubtful accounts was made totaling $56,204 to provide for the possibility of a revenue shortfall from the project in Modoc County, and is reflected in the accounts receivable balance on the balance sheet in the accompanying financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) under the contract (either implicit or explicit) by transferring the promised product or service to its customer either when (or as) its customer obtains control of the product or service. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. The majority of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct.

 

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services. As such, revenue is recorded net of returns, allowances, customer discounts, and incentives. Sales and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis.

 

The Company’s performance obligations under its engine business are generally satisfied as over time. Revenue from products or services transferred to its customer over time accounted for approximately 0% of revenue for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 0% and 12.3%, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2018. Revenue under this contract is generally recognized over time using an input measure based upon the proportion of actual costs incurred to estimated total project costs, which is a method used to best depict the Company’s performance to date under the terms of the contract.

 

Accounting for over time contracts involves the use of various techniques to estimate total revenue and costs. The Company estimates profit on such contracts as the difference between total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete a contract, and recognizes that profit over the life of the contract. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that may span several years. These assumptions include, among other things, labor productivity, costs and availability of materials. The nature of these long-term agreements may give rise to several types of variable consideration, such as claims, awards and incentive fees. These amounts of variable consideration are not expected to be significant. Additionally, contract estimates may include additional revenue for submitted contract modifications if there exists an enforceable right to the modification, the amount can be reasonably estimated and its realization is probable. These estimates are based on historical collection experience, anticipated performance, and the Company’s best judgment at the time. These amounts are generally included in the contract’s transaction price and are allocated over the remaining performance obligations. Changes in judgments on these above estimates could impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized with a resulting impact on the timing and amount of associated income.

 

The Company may receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules; accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. In the event a contract loss becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated loss is recognized in the Statement of Operations.

 

The majority of the Company’s revenue is from products and services transferred to customers at a point in time. It was approximately 100% and 87.7% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time in which the customer obtains control of the product or service, which is generally when product title passes to the customer upon shipment.

 

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and these timing differences result in contract assets or contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on the Company’s balance sheet. The Company records a contract asset when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing, or contract liabilities when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing. Contract liabilities additionally include customer advances or prepayments. Costs in excess of billings and billings in excess of costs associated with over time contracts were not significant at June 30, 2019 or 2018. Revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 that was included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period was $0.

 

On June 30, 2019, the Company had no remaining performance obligations.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are being depreciated on the straight line basis over a period of five years.

 

License Agreement

 

The cost of the license agreement (see Note 4) is being amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. The license agreement is tested annually for impairment or earlier if an indication of impairment exists. The Company believes that the license agreement has not been impaired.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by the tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax years (2014 - 2017).  The Company’s tax years end September 30.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share

 

The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with “ASC-260”, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted income (loss) per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive income (loss) per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, basic (loss) and diluted (loss) per share were the same. The 4,575,000 warrants outstanding at June 30, 2019 are anti-dilutive as the trading price of the Company’s common stock was below the exercise price of the warrants.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company’s 2018 calendar year. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018, and it has had no material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02: “Leases” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 creates new accounting and reporting guidelines for leasing arrangements. The new standard will require organizations that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by those leases, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. Consistent with current guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The standard will also require new disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard has been adopted by the Company. The Company has evaluated the impact of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements, and it did not have a material impact.

 

On June 20, 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-07, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments issued to non-employees. This ASU expands the scope of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, which currently only includes share-based payments issued to employees, to also include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods and services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees and employees will be substantially aligned. ASU 2018-07 supersedes ASC Subtopic 505-50, “Equity - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The new standard has been adopted by the Company. The Company has evaluated the impact of ASU 2018-07 on its consolidated financial statements and it did not have a material impact.

 

All other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Management has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure and/or recognition in the financial statements through the date that the financial statements were available to be issued.
