NOTE H – INCOME TAXES
 
The Company files its income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state jurisdictions. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed and recognized for those differences that have future tax consequences and will result in net taxable or deductible amounts in future periods. Deferred tax expense or benefit is the result of changes in the net asset or liability for deferred taxes. The deferred tax liabilities and assets for the Company result primarily from net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards, reserves and accrued liabilities.
 
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company generated net operating loss carryovers of approximately $2,568,000 and $1,040,000, respectively, that the Company may carry-forward to offset future taxable income. The Company generated no foreign tax credits for the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
 
At March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company has total net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $6,370,000 and $3,687,000, respectively, which expire in various amounts at dates from 2015 through 2031. There are certain limitations to the use and application of these deferred tax assets. Management reviews net operating loss carry forwards and income tax credit carry forwards to evaluate if those amounts are recoverable. Based on historical results and projections of future operations and taxable income, the Company established a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset to recognize that net operating losses and tax credits expiring in future fiscal years will likely not be realized.
