NOTE 9:  INCOME TAX

 

Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

 

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "TCJA"). The TCJA makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to, reducing the U.S. statutory corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, effective January 1, 2018. U.S. GAAP requires that deferred income tax assets and liabilities be remeasured at the income tax rate expected to apply when those temporary differences reverse, and that the effects of any change to such income tax rate be recognized in the period when the change was enacted.

 

In connection with the Company's initial analysis of the impact of the TCJA, the Company recorded a discrete net tax expense of $282,408 in the year ended February 28, 2018. This net expense is primarily due to the remeasurement of the Company's existing deferred tax assets and liabilities. Due to the Company having a full valuation allowance related to their deferred taxes, the $282,408 discrete tax expense associated with the remeasurement was equally offset by the valuation allowance causing an overall net zero impact on the Company's current tax rate.

 

We recorded a provision for income taxes of $0 for the quarter ended November 30, 2019 related to state taxes, based on the Company’s expected annual effective tax rate.
