Deferred income taxes arise from timing differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods.  A deferred tax asset valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized.  As the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the net deferred tax asset has been recorded at June 30, 2015 and 2014.   The effective tax rate was 0% for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

A reconciliation between the statutory federal and state income tax rate and the Company's tax provision is as follows:

At June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $757,065 and $585,085 which will expire in fiscal years ending June 30, 2032 through June 30, 2035.

The Company has concluded that the guidance regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes had no significant impact on its results of operations or financial position as of June 30, 2015 and 2014. Therefore, the Company does not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2015 or 2014. As a result, tabular reconciliation of beginning and ending balances would not be meaningful. If interest and penalties were to be assessed, the Company would charge interest to interest expense, and penalties to other operating expense. It is not anticipated that unrecognized tax benefits would significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date. Fiscal years 2012 through 2014 remain subject to examination by state and federal tax authorities.
