1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

The Company was incorporated in the State of Wyoming on August 14, 2006 as Tabularasa Corp.  The Company intends to become a manufacturer of advanced eco-friendly electric-powered utility tractors and attachments.  On March 19, 2010, the Company changed its name to Electric Tractor Corp.

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s registration statement filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the financial statements to be not misleading have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year 2013 as reported in Form 10-K, have been omitted.

 

Development Stage Company

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to development stage companies. A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of accrued expenses, accrued expenses – related parties, and advances received from an officer. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Basic Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

 

Comprehensive Income

The Company has established standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  When applicable, the Company discloses this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.  Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2014, the Company had $-0- of cash.

 

Income Tax

Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carry-forwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of loss because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carry-forward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.

 

Stock-based Compensation. 

For the period ended March 31, 2014, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its employees.  Under the modified prospective method the Company uses, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted, based on the estimated fair value on the grant date.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Research and Development

The Company incurs research and development (“R&D”) costs to develop its new and next-generation products.  The Company’s products reach technological feasibility shortly before the products are released and therefore R&D costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible Assets

In accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company tests its intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount.

 

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 350, requiring that intangible assets that have indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to an annual impairment test or more frequent test if indicators of impairment exist. Management has determined that the intangible assets as of December 31, 2013 were fully impaired in the amount of $10,000.

 

Advertising Costs

The Company’s policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. The Company incurred advertising expense of $-0- during the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations
