Income Taxes
8. Income Taxes
     No provision for federal or state income taxes has been recorded, as the Company has incurred cumulative net operating losses since inception.
     The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets. As required by the provisions of ASC 740, management has determined that it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will not utilize the benefits of federal and state deferred tax assets for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the deferred tax assets have been fully reserved at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
     The Company’s income tax return reporting periods since December 31, 2007 are open to income tax audit examination by the federal and state tax authorities. In addition, because the Company has net operating loss carryforwards, the Internal Revenue Service is permitted to audit earlier years and propose adjustments up to the amount of net operating losses generated in those years. There are currently no federal or state audits in progress.
