NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

a) Description of Business - The Company is a leading designer and developer of wireless technologies which emphasize wireless medical and other wireless products.

 

b) Segment Information - The Company follows ASC Topic 280, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” Topic 280 requires that a company report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker currently evaluates the Company’s operations from a number of different operational perspectives including but not limited to a client by client basis. The Company derives all significant revenues from a single reportable operating segment of business. Accordingly, the Company does not report more than one segment; nevertheless, management evaluates, at least annually, whether the Company continues to have one single reportable segment.

 c) Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and the differences may be material to the financial statements. Estimates are used primarily in determining the depreciable lives of fixed assets, and inventory valuation. In addition, estimates form the basis for the reserves for sales allowances, accounts receivable and inventory. Various assumptions go into the determination of these estimates. The process of determining significant estimates requires consideration of factors such as historical experience and current and expected economic conditions.

 

d) Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid investments and time deposits with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. All cash and cash equivalents are maintained with nationally recognized financial institutions.

 

e) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - An allowance for doubtful accounts is computed based on the Company’s historical experience and management’s analysis of possible bad debts. Accounts receivable are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,237 as of April 30, 2012 and $9,329 as of July 31, 2011, respectively.

 

f) Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market on an average basis. Inventory reserves are recorded for damaged, obsolete, excess and slow-moving inventory. Market value of inventory is estimated based on the impact of market trends, an evaluation of economic conditions and the value of current orders relating to the future sales of this type of inventory. As of April 30, 2012 and July 31, 2011, the value of the inventory reserve was $75,213 and $37,814, respectively.

 

g) Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the FASB ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes", (“Topic 740”). Topic 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The calculation of the Company's tax provision involves the application of complex tax rules and regulations within multiple jurisdictions. The Company's tax liabilities include estimates for all income-related taxes that the Company believes are probable and that can be reasonably estimated. To the extent that the Company’s estimates are understated, additional charges to the provision for income taxes would be recorded in the period in which the Company determines such understatement. If the Company's income tax estimates are overstated, income tax benefits will be recognized when realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

 

h) Revenue Recognition - The majority of the Company's product revenues are recognized upon shipment or delivery and acceptance of products by customers, when pervasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the title has transferred and collection of resulting receivables is reasonably assured. For merchandise products, the Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of products, when title is passed and the amount collectible can reasonably be determined. All amounts billed to a customer related to shipping and handling are classified as revenue, while all costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling are classified as selling expenses.

 

i) Research and Development Costs - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

j) Stock-Based Compensation - The Company adopted ASC Topic 718 “Share-Based Payment”. As permitted, the Company elected to adopt disclosure-only provisions of ASC 718 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Under the provisions of Topic ASC 718, compensation expense is recognized based on the fair value of options on the grant date.

 

k) Fair Value of Financial Instruments - ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, requires disclosure of the level within the fair value hierarchy in which fair value measurements in their entirety fall, segregating fair value measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term trade receivables and payables at April 30.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at:

 

    April 30, 2012     July 31, 2011  
    Carrying
amount
    Fair value     Carrying
amount
    Fair value  
                         
Financial assets:                                
Cash and cash equivalents     131,593       131,593       524,512       524,512  
Accounts receivable     160,490       160,490       139,853       139,853  
                                 
Financial liabilities:                                
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities     185,220       185,220       94,676       94,676  
Line of credit     0       0       290,000       290,000  
Notes payable     70,000       68,562       115,000       113,041  

 

The fair values of the financial instruments shown in the above table represent the amounts that would be received when those assets are sold or that would be paid when those liabilities are transferred in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Those fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs.

 

However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Those judgments are developed by the Company based on the best information available in the circumstances, including expected cash flows and appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates, available observable and unobservable inputs.

 

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

 

Cash equivalents

The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets of cash equivalents approximate fair value because of the relatively short time to maturity.

 

Accounts receivable

The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets of accounts receivable approximate fair value because of the relatively short time to maturity.

 

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets of accrued payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the relatively short time to maturity.

 

Line of credit

The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets of due to related party approximate fair value because of the relatively short time to maturity.

 

Notes payable

The fair value of the Company’s notes payable are measured using quoted offer-side prices when quoted market prices are available. If quoted market prices are not available, the fair value is determined by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect rates currently observed in publicly traded debt markets for debt of similar terms to companies with comparable credit risk. For long-term debt measurements, where there are no rates currently observable in publicly traded debt markets of similar terms with comparable credit, the Company uses market interest rates and adjusts that rate for all necessary risks, including its own credit risk.

 Fair Value Hierarchy

 

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at:

l) Translation of Foreign Currency - The Company accounts for its foreign operations in accordance with ASC Topic 830, “Foreign Currency Translation”. For the branch, non-monetary balance sheet items and related income statements items are translated at historical exchange rates, while monetary balance sheet items are translated at current exchange rates. Income statement items, other than monetary, are translated at the weighted average exchange rate during the year. Deferred taxes are not provided on translation gains and losses where the Company expects earnings of a foreign branch to be permanently reinvested.

 

m) Concentration - Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. If the collection of the receivable becomes doubtful, the Company establishes a reserve in an amount determined appropriate for the perceived risk. The Company maintains its cash accounts at commercial banks. From time to time, cash balances maintained in such banks may exceed the insured amount by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). As of April 30, 2012 and July 31, 2011, management does not believe they are exposed to any significant risk on their cash balances. The Company’s products are primarily sold to global medical device companies. These customers can be significantly affected by changes in economic, competitive or other factors. The Company makes substantial sales to a relatively few, large customers, where company is seeking to capture more business from other targeted medical device companies.

 

One customer accounted for $155,628 (96%) of receivables at April 30, 2012 while four customers accounted for $57,800 (39%), $40,579 (27%), $35,430 (24%) and $23,559 (16%) as of July 31, 2011, respectively.

 

One customer accounted for $368,128 (80%) of revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2012 and two customers accounted for $275,000 (35%) and $201,600 (26%) of revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2011. Three customers accounted for $460,049 (43%), $247,000 (23%), and $202,530 (19%) of the revenues for the nine months ended April 30, 2012 and one customer accounted for $1,791,400 (60%) of the revenues for the nine months ended April 30, 2011, respectively.

 

Two vendors accounted for $52,480 (63%) and $16,685 (20%) of accounts payable as of April 30, 2012 and two vendors accounted for $25,000 (53%) and $10,018 (21%) as of July 31, 2011, respectively.

 

Four vendors accounted for $78,600 (34%), $76,772 (33%), $49,735 (21%), and $27,180 (12%) of the purchases for the three months ended April 30, 2012, and one vendor accounted for $283,950 (95%) of the purchases for the three months ended April 30, 2011. Four vendors accounted for $121,518 (30%), $78,600 (20%), $76,772 (19%) and $69,735 (17%) of the purchases for the nine months ended April 30, 2012, and one vendor accounted for $1,121,153 (89%) of the purchases for the nine months ended April 30, 2011, respectively.

 

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance on multiple-deliverable arrangements to address how to separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate arrangement consideration. This guidance requires vendors to develop the best estimate of selling price for each deliverable and allocate the arrangement consideration using this selling price. This guidance also expands the disclosure requirements to include both quantitative and qualitative information. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance that expands the interim and annual disclosure requirements of fair value measurements, including the information about movement of assets between level 1 and 2 of the three-tier fair value hierarchy established under its fair value measurement guidance. This guidance also requires separate disclosure for each of purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, level 3. Except for the detailed disclosure in the level 3 reconciliation, which is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, all the other disclosures under this guidance are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements,” which addresses both the interaction of the requirements of Topic 855, Subsequent Events, with the SEC’s reporting requirements and the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosures provision related to subsequent events. Specifically, the amendments state that SEC filers are no longer required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in originally issued and revised financial statements. The standard was effective immediately upon issuance. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13 “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades” (ASU 2010-13). Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification. The amendments in this standard are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The guidance should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for all outstanding awards as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, “Business Combinations (ASC Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations – a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force”. This ASU clarifies existing disclosure requirements for public entities with business combinations that occur in the current reporting period. The ASU stipulates that if an entity is presenting comparative financial statements, revenue and earnings of the combined entity should be disclosed as though the business combinations that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparative prior annual reporting period. The ASU also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures required by ASC Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This guidance is effective prospectively for business combinations with acquisition dates on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
