Income Tax, Policy

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we are fully reserving our deferred tax asset value to zero as we have not recognized the future tax benefit of current or prior period losses due to our history of operating losses.  Accordingly, our effective tax rate for each period was - 0-%.

O.        Income Taxes – Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the current period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

The accounting for uncertain tax positions requires the Company to evaluate each income tax position using a two step process which includes a determination as to whether it is more likely than not that the income tax position will be sustained, based upon technical merit and upon examination by the taxing authorities. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no uncertain tax positions that required accrual.  None of the Company’s federal or state income tax returns are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or state authorities.  However, fiscal years 2012 and later remain subject to examination by the IRS and respective states.
