NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts calculated for income tax purposes.
For the years ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively, the Company produced net operating losses before provision for income taxes of $69,857 and $721,057 respectively; accordingly, a provision for income taxes of $0 was recorded during the year ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.
The components of the Companys deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:
|
| 2017 | 2016 | ||
| Net operating loss carryover | $ | (502,000) | $ | (477,600) |
| Valuation allowance |
| 502,000 |
| 477,600 |
| Net provision for federal income taxes | $ | -- | $ | -- |
The Companys effective income tax rate of 0.0% differs from the statutory rate of 35% for the reason set forth below for the years ended March 31:

| Income tax (recoverable) payable at statutory rate | $ | (24,450) | $ | (95,355) |

| Net provision for federal income taxes | $ | -- | $ | -- |
As at the year-end the Company had an approximate net tax loss carried forward of $1.4 million (2016: $1.4 million). Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses 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 tax loss carry-forwards. These losses expire between 2028 and 2037. There is a three-year limitation on IRS audit since filing of a tax return. The Company has yet to file its tax returns since the fiscal year 2012. Penalties and interest if any charged are included in general and administrative expenses. No penalty or interest was charged or included during the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.
