NOTE 2- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Revenue and Cost Recognition

The Company's revenue is recognized on the accrual basis as earned based on the date of stay. Expenditures are recorded on the accrual basis whereby expenses are recorded when incurred, rather than when paid.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments, including certificates of deposit with maturities of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents.


Inventory


Inventory has been valued at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory is comprised primarily of goods in the general store and parts in the RV repair shop.


Property and Equipment – Pismo Coast Village

All property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using straight-line method on cost of the assets, less allowance for salvage value, where appropriate. Depreciation rates are based upon the following estimated useful lives:


Building and park improvements

5 to 40 years

Furniture, fixtures, equipment and leasehold improvements

3 to 31.5 years

Transportation equipment

5 to 10 years

Earnings Per Share

The earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. For years ending 2013 and 2012 the weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 1,787 and 1,787. The financial statements report only basic earnings per share, as there are no potentially dilutive shares outstanding.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.


Advertising

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of non-direct response advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising expense was $50,511 and $58,987 for the years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.


Concentration of Credit Risk


At September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had cash deposits in excess of the $250,000 federally insured limit with Mission Community Bank of $116,612 and $1,543,995, respectively; however, in the past the Company has used an Excess Deposit Insurance Bond, which secures deposits up to $1,500,000. It has recently been stated by bank regulators that this insurance bond is not enforceable. The FDIC’s Temporary Transaction Account Guarantee Program provides unlimited coverage for non-interest bearing accounts until December 31, 2013. Mission Community Bank is a member or CDARS, the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service. Large deposits are divided into smaller amounts and placed with other FDIC insured banks which are also members of the CDARS network. Then, those member banks issue CDs in amounts under $250,000, so that the entire investment is eligible for FDIC insurance.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The Company has reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements have an impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of their operations. Various accounting standards and interpretations were issued with effective dates subsequent to December 31, 2012. The Company has evaluated the recently issued accounting pronouncements that are effective in the current period and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows when adopted.


Subsequent Events


Subsequent events have been evaluated through November 12, 2013, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
