INCOME TAXES

8. INCOME TAXES

In prior years, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. For the 2020 tax year, fiscal year end October 31, 2021, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7,322,000 for tax purposes. The carryforwards are available to offset taxable income of future periods and begin to expire after the Company’s 2037 tax year, fiscal year end October 31, 2038. Effective for tax years ending in 2019 or later, net operating losses cannot be carried back but can be carried forward to future tax years indefinitely. Realization of the deferred tax benefit related to the carryforward is dependent upon the Company generating sufficient taxable income in the future, against which the loss can be offset, which is not guaranteed.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, as well as tax benefits of net operating loss carryforwards. The significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to the following:

	2021			2020
Net operating loss carryforward	$	2,269,088		$	2,063,193
Depreciation				—
Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance		2,269,088			2,063,193
Less: Valuation allowance		(2,269,088	)		(2,063,193	)
Net deferred tax assets	$	—		$	—

For financial reporting purposes, the Company has incurred losses in previous years. Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s previous losses, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets as of October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The effective income tax rate varied from the statutory Federal tax rate as follows:

	2021			2020
Federal statutory rate		21	%		21	%
Effect of net operating losses		(21	%)		(21	%)
Effective income tax rate		—			—

The Company’s effective tax rate is lower than what would be expected if the federal statutory rate were applied to income (loss) before taxes, primarily due to net operating loss carryforwards.
