Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Goliath Film and Media International and its subsidiary, Goliath Film and Media Holdings (“Goliath” or “the Company”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) all valid transactions are recorded and (3) transactions are recorded in the period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the company for the respective periods being presented.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 period. A change in managements’ estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such changes occurred.

 

Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s financial statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable, if any are carried at the expected net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts, when determined, will be based on management’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivables. If there were a deterioration of a major customer’s creditworthiness, or actual defaults were higher than historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of the amounts due to us could be overstated, which could have a negative impact on operations.

 

The Company currently does not have any accounts receivable. The above accounting policies will be adopted upon the Company carrying accounts receivable.

Films and Televisions Costs

Films and Television Costs

 

The Company capitalizes production costs for films produced in accordance with ASC 926-20, “Entertainment-Films - Other Assets - Film Costs”. Accordingly, production costs are capitalized at actual cost and then charged against revenue quarterly as a cost of production based on the relative fair value of the film(s) delivered and recognized as revenue. The Company evaluates its capitalized production costs annually and limits recorded amounts by its ability to recover such costs through expected future sales. The Company recorded an impairment of film production costs of $44,918 for the year ended April 30, 2017. There was no impairment for the year ended April 30, 2016.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenues in accordance with ASC 926-605, “Entertainment Films, Revenue Recognition”.

 

Under ASC 926-605, five conditions must be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) the film is complete and has been delivered, (iii) the license period has begun, (iv) the price is fixed or determinable, and (v) collection is reasonably assured. The Company provides for an allowance for doubtful account based history and experience considering economic and industry trends.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when the distributor confirms to the Company that the film has been delivered to the distributor with all technical and document deliveries received, waived or deferred and the film has been entered into the distributor’s rights system.

Advertising

Advertising

 

Advertising expenses are recorded as general and administrative expenses when they are incurred. There was no advertising expense for the years ended April 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Research and Development

Research and Development

 

All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. There was no research and development expense for the years ended April 30, 2017 and 2016.

Income Tax

Income tax

 

We account for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to 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. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820. This Topic defines fair value, establishes a measurement framework and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

The Company uses fair value measurements for determining the valuation of derivative financial instruments payable in shares of its common stock. This primarily involves option pricing models that incorporate certain assumptions and projections to determine fair value. These require management’s judgment.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

 

FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in quarterly reports as well as in annual reports. For the Company, this statement applies to certain investments and long-term debt. Also, the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.

 

Various inputs are considered when determining the value of the Company’s investments and long-term debt. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

  Level 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
     
  Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.).
     
  Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

 

The Company’s adoption of FASB ASC Topic 825 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. The Company had no financial assets and/or liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis at April 30, 2017, assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short term nature.

 

The availability of inputs observable in the market varies from instrument to instrument and depends on a variety of factors including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is actively traded, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. For many financial instruments, pricing inputs are readily observable in the market, the valuation methodology used is widely accepted by market participants, and the valuation does not require significant management discretion. For other financial instruments, pricing inputs are less observable in the market and may require management judgment. As of April 30, 2017, the Company had no assets other than prepaid expenses and capitalized film production costs.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted earnings per share

 

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted Earnings per share is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the effects of common stock that may be issued as a result of the following types of potentially dilutive instruments:

 

  Warrants,
     
  Employee stock options, and
     
  Other equity awards, which include long-term incentive awards

 

The FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, requires the Company to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution.

 

Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options are assumed to be exercised at the time of issuance, and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

 

Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same as there were no potentially dilutive instruments for the years ended April 30, 2017 and 2016.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock Based Compensation

 

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant. We apply this statement prospectively. Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by ASC 718. ASC No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”) defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the ASC 505.

Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments

Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments

 

We evaluate financial instruments using the guidance provided by ASC 815 and apply the provisions thereof to the accounting of items identified as derivative financial instruments not indexed to our stock.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards

 

The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.
