Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Common Stock Split

On October 31, 2011, the Company effected a one-for-ten reverse stock split to shareholders of record as of October 31, 2011. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

Earnings per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects 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 earnings of the entity. Diluted shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 gives effect to the weighted average of 124,750 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options agreements. Diluted income per share for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2010, gives effect to the weighted average of 25,832 shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s shares of preferred stock.

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition,” which requires that: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. We recognize revenue when services are rendered or delivered, where collectability is probable.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We initially record our provision for doubtful accounts based on our historical experience and then adjust this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company recorded bad debt expense of $14,474 and ($3,709) during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company recorded bad debt expense of $99,819 and $44,061 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Deferred Costs

For all customer sales arrangements in which we defer the recognition of revenue, we also defer the associated costs, such as the personnel or expenses incurred with third parties to perform the services.

Use of Estimates

 

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts and the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Income Taxes

 

    We comply with FASB ASC No. 740 – Income Taxes which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.  For any uncertain tax positions, we recognize the impact of a tax position, only if it is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Our policy regarding the classification of interest and penalties is to classify them as income tax expense in our financial statements, if applicable.

 

At the end of each interim period, we estimate the effective tax rate we expect to be applicable for the full fiscal year and this rate is applied to our results for the interim year to date period.  Income tax expense was $47,388 and $60,012, respectively, during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reversed the remaining balance of our valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset and recorded the remaining estimated income tax liability.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

    As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we do not have any financial assets or liabilities that are required to be, or that we elected to measure, at fair value.

 

    We adopted the fair value provisions applicable to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities in fiscal 2009. Our assets and liabilities that are subject to these provisions include our intangible assets, consisting of goodwill, domain names and software, and our long-lived assets. The adoption of the fair value provisions applicable to nonfinancial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of our financial results.

 

    We believe that the fair value of our financial instruments, which consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

We account for stock-based compensation under the authoritative guidance for stock compensation. The authoritative guidance for stock compensation requires that companies estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The cost is to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The valuation provisions of the authoritative guidance for stock compensation apply to new grants and grants modified after the adoption date that were outstanding as of the effective date. The authoritative guidance for stock compensation also requires the benefit of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation expense to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as prescribed under previous accounting rules. This requirement reduces net operating cash flows and increases net financing cash flows in periods subsequent to adoption. There were no options granted during the three month period ended September 30, 2011. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 25,000 options to purchase commons stock with exercise prices ranging from $1.70 to $1.87. The Company recognized stock based compensation expense of $25,914 and $69,505 during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The Company recognized stock based compensation expense of $33,898 and $78,898 during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements did not have a material effect on our financial position or results from operations.  We do not expect recently issued accounting pronouncements that are not yet effective will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
