NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

Potential benefits of income tax losses and other tax assets are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has net operating losses carried forward of $1,022,465 (2010 - $1,142,613) for tax purposes in various jurisdictions subject to expiration as described below. Pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes , the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward and other items giving rise to deferred tax assets. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses and other items have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these items.

 

The actual income tax provisions differ from the expected amounts calculated by applying the combined income tax statutory rates applicable in each jurisdiction to the Company’s loss before income taxes and non-controlling interest. The components of these differences are as follows:

 

    2011     2010  
             
Corporate income tax rate     34%       34%

Non-deductible finance costs and other     552,177

State income tax net of federal benefit     10,230          
                 
Income tax provision   $ 15,500     $ -  

 

The Company’s tax-effected deferred income tax assets and liabilities are estimated as follows:

 

    2011     2010  
             
Net operating loss carryforward   $ 347,638     $ 388,488  
Total deferred tax assets     347,638       388,488

The Company has approximately $1,022,465 in net operating losses carried forward for United States income tax purposes which will expire, if not utilized, in 2030.
