NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES
The Company has incurred net operating losses since inception. The Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating loss carry forwards in the financial statements.
In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income.
Based on the level of historical taxable losses and projections of future taxable income (losses) over the periods in which the deferred tax assets can be realized, management currently believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of these tax deductible differences. Accordingly, the Company has provided a valuation allowance against the gross deferred tax assets as follows:
As of December 31, 2016, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1,153,221, and a deferred tax asset of approximately $392,095 using the statutory rate of 34%. The deferred tax asset may be recognized in future periods, not to exceed 20 years. However, due to the uncertainty of future events we have booked valuation allowance of $(392,095). The Company may have experienced control changes under IRC 382, which has not been fully analyzed and could affect the NOL availability.

| Valuation Allowance | (392,095) | (150,995) |

Reconciliations between the provision for income taxes and the expected tax benefit using the federal statutory rate of 34% and the state statutory rate of 6.9% for a total effective rate of 40.9% for 2016 and 2015.
The Company adopted the uncertain tax position disclosure in accordance with ASC 740 and has not recognized any material increase in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as a result of the implementation. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefit will change within the next twelve months. The Company will continue to classify income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of interest and other expenses in its statements of operations. The Company has incurred no interest or penalties as of September 30, 2016 and 2015.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and Oregon federal jurisdictions. These filings are subject to a three year statute of limitations unless the returns have not been filed at which point the statute of limitations becomes indefinite. No filings are currently under examination. No adjustments have been made to reduce the estimated income tax benefit at year end. Any valuations relating to these income tax provisions will comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
