In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, Management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the year end December 31, 2019 and for the period from May 15, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance of approximately $178,000 and $33,000, respectively.

 

A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company's effective tax rate is as follows:

 

   2019   2018 
   Amount   Percent of Pretax Income   Amount   Percent of Pretax Income 
Statutory federal income tax rate   140,365    21.0%   22,512    21.0%
Meals and entertainment   196    0.0%   77    0.1%
Increase in valuation allowance   144,814    21.7%   32,745    30.5%
Income tax provision expense/benefit   285,375    42.7%   55,334    51.6%
