Note 6 - INCOME TAXES

 

The Company operates in more than one jurisdiction with its main operations conducted in PRC and virtually no activities in USA, with complex regulatory environments subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and the respective governmental taxing authorities. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities, if required.

 

The reconciliation of the U.S. statutory income tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate is as follows :

Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) through December 31, 2007 is at a statutory rate of 33%, which is comprised of 30% national income tax and 3% local income tax. As from January 1, 2008 onwards, the EIT is at a statutory rate of 25%.

 

On April 6, 2012, the Company obtains the approval from the tax authority of PRC that it fulfills certain tax requirements of a company engaging in the design of software and integrated circuit and thereby it is entitled to preferential tax relief for EIT. The Company is exempted from EIT in the first two profitable financial years of operation and is further granted a 50% relief from the EIT for the following three financial years. As the approval is officially given to the Company in April, 2012, no refund of tax would be made in respect of the EIT paid by the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, with the 50% relief from EIT becomes effective from the financial year commencing on January 1, 2011.

 

Provision for income taxes for each of for the six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 consists entirely of current taxes for the operations in PRC. There were no significant deferred tax differences in both periods.

 

Deferred Income Tax Asset

 

The primary components of temporary differences which might give rise to the Company’s deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012 were as follows:

 

    As of  
    March 31, 2013     September
30, 2012
 
             
Balance   $ 157,063     $ 54,865  
                 
USA     -       -  
Hong Kong     5,699       37,002  
PRC     51,974       65,196  
      214,736       157,063  
Less: valuation allowance     (214,736 )     (157,063 )
Deferred income tax benefit, net of valuation allowance   $ -     $ -  

 

Increase in valuation allowance for the six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $57,673.

Decrease in valuation allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $10,592

 

Deferred tax asset which may arise as a result of these losses have been offset in these consolidated financial statements by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty surrounding their realization.

 

Deferred U.S. income taxes have not been provided on the undistributed income of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries because the Company does not plan to initiate any action that would require the payment of U.S. income taxes.

  

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

 

For the six months and three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties expenses. Currently, the Company has not received any notice of examination by any tax authority in major tax jurisdictions, but the tax authority in PRC has the right to examine the Company’s tax positions in all past years.
