NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company’s year end is March 31.

Basis of Consolidation

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the wholly-owned subsidiary Caro Holdings International, Ltd. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency Translations

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Caro Holdings International, Ltd.’s functional currency is the Great British Pounds (GBP). All transactions initiated in GBP are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830-30, ”Translation of Financial Statements,” as follows:

1)	Monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date.
2)	Equity at historical rates.
3)	Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period.

Adjustments arising from such translations are deferred until realization and are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as a component of comprehensive income or loss. Therefore, translation adjustments are not included in determining net income (loss) but reported as other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings in the period of settlement.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue Recognition” following the five steps procedure:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with customers

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations

Step 5: Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation

The Company’s revenue derives from monthly fee from online ecommerce service where users can sign up and setup their own online shops.

Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for intangible assets (including trademarks and formula) in accordance with ASC 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.”

ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has decreased below its carrying value. In addition, ASC 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill may be in doubt. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions or the occurrence of one or more confirming events in future periods could cause the actual results or outcomes to materially differ from such estimates and could also affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment at future reporting dates.

The cost of intangible assets with determinable useful lives is amortized to reflect the pattern of economic benefits consumed, either on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the estimated periods benefited. Patents, technology and other intangibles with contractual terms are generally amortized over their respective legal or contractual lives. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, an impairment assessment is performed and lives of intangible assets with determinable lives may be adjusted. (Note 5)

Related Parties

We follow ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures”, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. (Note 10)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including accounts payable and accrued liabilities. are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of our short term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates taken together with other features such as embedded conversion options, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 -	quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 -	quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
Level 3 -	inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

Convertible Note

The Company follows ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480-10”) in its evaluation of the accounting for a hybrid instrument. A financial instrument that embodies an unconditional obligation, or a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation, that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares shall be classified as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances) if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on any one of the following: (a) a fixed monetary amount known at inception; (b) variations in something other than the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares; or (c) variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares. Hybrid instruments meeting these criteria are not further evaluated for any embedded derivatives. The Company records each convertible note as a liability at the fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the note issuance date with a charge to interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. 

Software Development

The Company accounts for all software purchased and software development costs in accordance with FASB ASC 985-20 “Software”. Accordingly, all costs incurred prior to establishing technological feasibility are expensed and software purchased or developed with established technological feasibility are capitalized. Software purchased is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method upon implementation with an estimated useful life of seven years.

As of March 31, 2024, purchased software of $258,000 was capitalized and none of the costs associated with software development met the criteria for capitalization. During the year ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $128,618 and $96,424 software development cost, respectively.

Web Development Cost

In accordance with FASB ASC 350-50 “Web Development Costs”, all costs incurred during the website planning stage are incurred. During the website application and infrastructure development stage, software tool costs and internet domain costs are capitalized, and website hosting costs are expensed. Cost incurred in the graphics development, content development and operating stage are generally expensed unless the costs are software related and should then be capitalized. During the year ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company incurred $1,675 and $6,577 web development cost, respectively. 

Net Income (Loss) per Share 

The Company computes basic and diluted net loss per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if convertible notes to issue common stock were converted resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the loss of the Company.

For the year ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, convertible notes were dilutive instruments and were not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect would be antidilutive.

Recently Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with “Conversion and Other Options” and ASC subtopic 815-40 “Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and, (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
