Deferred income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements and consist of deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.
The Company's provision for income taxes differs from applying the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate to income before income taxes. The primary differences result from deducting certain expenses for financial statement purposes but not for federal income tax purposes.
At September 30, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $301,998 for U.S. federal income tax purposes available to offset future taxable income expiring on various dates through 2035. The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of its realization. The net change in the valuation allowance for the year ended September 30, 2017 was an increase of $15,816, and an increase of $84,075 for the year ended September 30, 2016.
In the normal course of business, the Company's income tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Such examinations may result in future tax and interest assessment by these taxing authorities. Accordingly, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefits of tax positions it has taken in its tax returns or for the amount of any tax benefit that exceeds the cumulative probability threshold in accordance with FASB ASC 740-10-15. Differences between the estimated and actual amounts determined upon ultimate resolution, individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the company's financial position. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary filed its income tax returns on a stand-alone basis. As of September 30, 2017, the Company does not have any subsidiary.
