NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization - Bioethics, Ltd. (“the Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 26, 1990.  The Company has not commenced planned principal operations and is considered a development stage company as defined in ASC Topic No. 915. The Company was organized to provide a vehicle for participating in potentially profitable business ventures which may become available through the personal contacts of, and at the complete discretion of, the Company’s officers and directors.  The Company has, at the present time, not paid any dividends and any dividends that may be paid in the future will depend upon the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant factors.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” [See Note 3].

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of ASC Topic No. 740, the Company recognized approximately no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

 

The Company has no tax positions at December 31, 2013 and 2012 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.

 

The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.  During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.  The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2013, and 2012.  All tax years starting with 2010 are open for examination.

 

Loss Per Share - The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC Topic No. 260, “Earnings Per Share” [See Note 7].

 

Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from those estimated.

 

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - The FASB established the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants.  

 

Recent Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) through ASU No. 2014-5 contain technical corrections to existing guidance or affect guidance to specialized industries.  These updates have no current applicability to the Company or their effect on the financial statements would not have been significant.
