Right of Use assets:
 
On
January 1, 2019,
the Company adopted ASC Topic
842
using the modified retrospective transition method. Topic
842
requires the recognition of lease assets and liabilities for operating leases, in addition to the finance lease assets and liabilities previously recorded on our consolidated balance sheets. Beginning on
January 1, 2019,
our consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the revised policies, while prior period amounts are
not
adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical policies. The modified retrospective transition method required the cumulative effect, if any, of initially applying the guidance to be recognized as an adjustment to our accumulated deficit as of our adoption date. There is
no
discount rate implicit in the Anguilla office operating lease agreement, so the Company estimated a
5%
discount rate for the incremental borrowing rate for the lease as of the adoption date,
January 1, 2019.
There is
no
discount rate implicit in the license agreement, so the Company estimated a
12%
discount rate for the incremental borrowing rate for the licenses as of the adoption date,
January 1, 2019.
 
Effective
April 1, 2019,
we recognized lease assets and liabilities of
$125,474
,
in relation to the Vancouver office. We estimated a discount rate of
4.12%.
 
There was
no
cumulative effect adjustment to our accumulated deficit as a result of initially applying the guidance.
 
We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within Topic
842,
which allowed us to carry forward prior conclusions about lease identification, classification and initial direct costs for leases entered into prior to adoption of Topic
842.
Additionally, we elected to
not
separate lease and non-lease components for all of our leases. For leases with a term of
12
months or less, our current offices, we elected the short-term lease exemption, which allowed us to
not
recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for qualifying leases existing at transition and new leases we
may
enter into in the future, as there is significant uncertainty on whether the leases will be renewed.
