2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State ("US GAAP"), and are expressed in United States dollars.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries necessary for a fair statement of the periods presented for: (a) the balance sheet; (b) the result of operations; and (c) cash flows, have been made in order to make the financial statements presented not misleading. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operations for a full year. The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report in Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2021.

DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company has adopted the provision of ASC 985-20-25, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased or Marketed, whereby costs incurred to establish the technological feasibility of a computer software product to be sold, leased or marketed are research and development costs. Research costs are expensed as incurred; costs of producing product masters incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility are capitalized; and costs incurred when the product is available for general release to the customers are expensed as incurred. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enables the software to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing. 

 

EQUITY INVESTMENTS

Equity investments are classified as available for sale and are stated at fair market value. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the Company's statement of operations.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's financial instruments include cash, equity investments, accounts payable, and other payable. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, and other payable approximates their fair value based on their short-term nature. The Company is not exposed to significant interest, exchange or credit risk arising from these financial instruments.

The fair value hierarchy under US GAAP is based on the following three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level I, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and

Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the period ended March 31, 2021.

Cash is measured at fair value using level 1 and equity investments are measured at fair value using level 2 inputs respectively.
