NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

 

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of $55,856,751 and $45,213,594, respectively, which begins to expire in 2034.

 

Components of net deferred tax asset, including a valuation allowance, are as follows:

 

   June 30, 2024   December 31, 2023 
   (unaudited)   (audited) 
Deferred tax asset:          
Net operating loss carryforward  $11,729,920   $9,494,850 
Total deferred tax asset   11,729,920    9,494,850 
Less: Valuation allowance   (11,729,920)   (9,494,850)
Net deferred tax asset  $-   $- 

 

Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, was $11,729,920 and $9,494,850, respectively. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax asset, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result, management determined it was more likely than not deferred tax assets will not be realized as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, and recognized 100% valuation allowance for each period.

 

Reconciliation between the statutory rate and the effective tax rate for both periods and as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

 

      
Federal statutory rate   (21.0)%
State taxes, net of federal benefit   (0.0)%
Change in valuation allowance   21.0%
Effective tax rate  0.0%

 

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“the 2022 act”) was signed into law. The 2022 act contains numerous provisions, including a 15% corporate alternative minimum income tax on “adjusted financial statement income”, expanded tax credits for clean energy incentives and a 1% excise tax on corporate stock repurchases. The provisions of the 2022 act become effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2023. On December 27, 2022, the IRS and Department of Treasury issued initial guidance for taxpayers subject to the corporate alternative minimum tax. The guidance addresses several, but not all, issues that needed clarification. The IRS and Department of Treasury intend to release additional guidance in the future. We will continue to evaluate the impact of the 2022 act as more guidance becomes available. We currently do not expect an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
