FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30,2005, as set forth below, are included with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB:
Auditor’s Review Letter
Interim Consolidated Balance Sheet as at June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2005
Interim Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period ended June 30, 2005
Interim Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Deficit at June 30, 2005
Interim Consolidated Cash Flow Statement for the period ended June 30, 2005
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Quest Oil Corporation (formerly GameState Entertainment, Inc.) (an exploration stage company) as of June 30, 2005 and the related consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Quest Oil Corporation (formerly GameState Entertainment, Inc.) (an exploration stage company) as of March 31, 2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders' equity/(deficit) for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated June 22, 2005 we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying balance sheet as of March 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Note 2 of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2005, and for the year then ended discloses that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has no established source of revenue at March 31, 2005. Our auditors' report on those financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph referring to the matters in Note 2 of those financial statements and indicating that these matters raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As indicated in Note 2 of the Company's unaudited interim financial statements as of June 30, 2005, and for the three months then ended, the Company has continued to suffer recurring losses from operations and still has no established source of revenue at June 30, 2005. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this un certainty.

1.
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
Quest Oil Corporation (“QOIL” or the “Company”) is in the business of acquiring and participating in development stage oil and gas properties around the globe. The Company was incorporated on January 19, 1999 under the laws of the State of Nevada, and its principal executive offices are presently headquartered in Arlington, Texas.
These interim consolidated financial statements include all activity of the Company and its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Quest Canada Corporation. The subsidiary was created for the purpose of holding Alberta oil and gas property acquisitions.
As a result of the change in business, cumulative from inception figures for the oil and gas operations have presented for the period of October 1, 2004 to date.
The Company has elected a fiscal year-end of March 31.
2.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $411,006 for the period ended June 30, 2005, and has negative working capital. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Management intends to finance anticipated ongoing expenses and capital requirements with funds generated from cash provided by operating activities; available cash and cash investments; and capital raised through debt and equity offerings.
3.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim consolidated financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-KSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the period ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any interim period or the entire year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2005. The Company applies the same accounting policies and methods in these interim consolidated financial statements as those in the audited a nnual consolidated financial statements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant accounting policies which affect the Company are summarized below:
(i)
Accounting Method
The Company’s interim consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.
(ii)
Oil and Gas Activities
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and gas activities; accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized within the appropriate cost center. Any internal costs that are capitalized are limited to those costs that can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration, and development activities undertaken by the Company for its own account, and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities.
All capitalized costs within a cost center are depleted on the units-of-production method based on estimated proved reserves attributable to the oil and gas properties owned by the Company.
For each cost center, capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed the cost center ceiling. The cost center ceiling is equal to the sum of: (a) the present value of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing the proved reserves computed using a 10 percent discount factor; (b) the cost of properties not being amortized; (c) the lower of cost or fair market value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; and (d) income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. Any excess is charged to expense during the period in which the excess occurs.
Sales of oil and gas properties, whether or not being amortized currently, are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas attributable to a cost center. Abandonments of oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs, and are amortized and subject to the cost center ceiling limitation.
(iii)
Equipment
Equipment is recorded at historical cost. The declining-balance method is used for the assets at the following annual rates:
Computer equipment
30%
(iv)
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the inclusion of common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(v)
Provision for Taxes
Income taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. A deferred tax assets or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Deferred tax expense/(benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
(vi)
Use of Estimates
The process of preparing interim consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the interim consolidated financial statements; accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
(vii)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents.
(viii)
Derivative Instruments
At June 30, 2005, the Company had not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.
(ix)
Compensated Absences
The Company has no employees. At such time as the Company hires personnel, its employees will be entitled to paid vacation, paid sick days, and personal days off depending on job classification, length of service, and other factors. The Company’s policy will be to recognize the cost of compensated absences when actually paid to employees.
(x)
Foreign Currency Transactions
Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates; other assets and liabilities have been translated at the rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Revenue and expense items, except for amortization, are translated at the average rate of exchange for the year. Amortization is converted using rates prevailing at dates of acquisition. Gains and losses from foreign currency translation are included in the statement of operations.
All figures presented are in US dollars.
(xi)
Financial Instruments
All significant financial assets, financial liabilities, and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in these interim consolidated financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk, and credit risk. Where practicable, the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise, only available information pertinent to the fair value has been disclosed.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTY
On February 15, 2005, the Company announced that it completed the acquisition to acquire a 100% working interest in the two-section Acadia North prospect located approximately 160 miles due east of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Under the terms of the farm-in agreement with Moraine Resources Ltd., the Company must reprocess 8 kilometres of trade seismic line with the option to drill a new well into the proved reservoir sand, and a second well can be drilled on the second section after evaluating the first well. The 100% working interest is earned on the sections when the test wells are drilled. Budget forecasts for drilling, completion, and tie-in on a per well basis is estimated at $500,000. Following the completion of the required leasing, surveying, licensing, and site preparation, the Company plans to commence drilling. The Company has spent $398,871 to d ate on the property.

OVERVIEW
Quest Oil Corporation (“QOIL” or the “Company”) is in the business of acquiring and developing of oil and gas properties in Alberta, Canada and Texas, USA. The Company was incorporated on January 19, 1999 under the laws of the State of Nevada, and its principal executive offices are presently headquartered in Arlington, Texas and Vancouver, BC.
These interim consolidated financial statements include all activity of the Company and its wholly owned Canadian subsidiary, Quest Canada Corporation. The subsidiary was created for the purpose of holding Alberta oil and gas property Acadia North.
We currently hold interests in four oil and gas properties: the Acadia North property in Alberta, Canada; the Empress property in Alberta, Canada, the Hawkeye Lease property in Texas and the Nettie Gardner Lease property in Texas.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
The Company’s plan of operation is to carry out the development of our oil and gas properties in Alberta and Texas by implementing drilling and work over programs to develop and bring in to production our existing lease properties.
The Company’s current plan of operation is to begin production on ”10-22” gas well of the Acadia North project. The Company’s operator Transaction Oil and Gas Services Ltd. holds sales contract with Altagas for the purchase of the Company’s gas production. Acadia North “15-34” has been completed and is presently shut-in, the Company is waiting for independent tests to be completed after the down hole equipment can be retrieved.
The Empress project is scheduled for drilling in late August, the Company has signed an AFE for $450,000 to cover the expense of drilling and completion of the first well. The Company has already advanced $200,000 towards this cost.
Hawkeye Lease, Eastland County, Texas requires remedial work by services crews to restore the 95 wells on the property. Inspection of the property identified 48 oil wells capable of immediate production. A work over budget of $250,000 is required to initiate the project.
Nettie Gardner Lease, McCullough, Texas is a planned two well development project to prove up existing oil reserves on the lease. The Company has no immediate plans to bring the lease into production until a 2D seismic and a full engineering report is completed.
EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES DURING THE FIRST QUARTER
Acadia North Project, Alberta, Canada
In November 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with Vega Resources Ltd, an Alberta company. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company acquired the right to participate and earn an 100% working interest in two gas exploration and development concessions located in the province of Alberta, Canada known as the Acadia North prospect.
Development of the property was based on third party engineering report from Chapman Engineering Ltd. of Calgary, Alberta and running two parallel 2D seismic lines to interpret the reserve characteristics and choose desirable drilling locations.
Acadia North is a two well drilling program comprised of wells 15-34 and 10-22 drilling locations. On June 20 well 10-22 was drilled to a depth of 719 meters and plugged. On July 18 well 15-34 well was drilled and cased to a depth of 725 meters and plugged.
On August 8, 2005 an endless tubing unit was contracted and drilled through the well bore shoe (concrete plug) into the Viking sand gas zone. Well 15-34 was drilled to production depth of 735 meters, however at the time of rigging out of hole the steel tubing carrying the down hole motor and drill broke and the equipment was lost in hole until it can be fished out by a special contractor. The well has not been professionally tested and true testing numbers are not yet available due to the equipment in the hole 15-34.
Well 10-22 was drilled through shoe and immediately entered the Viking gas pool. Drilling equipment was pulled out of the hole and immediately shut in. Initial testing at site indicated pressure over 900 PSI. August 10, 2005 independent pressure tests were implemented to determine commercial flow rates, these results are not yet known to the Company.
As per Jim Deck, Chapman Engineering “The Arneson 10-22-25-2 W4M well was drilled and cased to a T.D. of 2374 ft K.B on July 9, 2005. An endless tubing unit was brought in to drill out the casing shoe and tag the top of the Viking, which is the prospective zone of interest. Upon drilling out of the casing shoe the well start to flow gas to surface at rates of up to 1000 Mscf/d. Drilling was suspended and all the down hole equipment was pulled out of the hole and the well was shut-in. Based on these results it would appear that the Viking zone came in 10 feet higher than anticipated. On August 8 down hole pressure gauges were run to record a 14 day flow and build up as part of an Absolute Open Flow Test(AOF). The well was open to flow, to a testing unit, on August 9 and flowed immediately at a stabilized rate of 300 Mscf/d and a flowing pressure of 900 psia.&nbs p; After flowing for 16 hours under these conditions it was decided to test the well at higher rates. The well was opened up even more and after 7 hours flowed at a stabilized rate of 4900 Mscf/d and 855 psia. The well was shut-in on August 10 to record a build up pressure.” Well 10-22 is currently waiting for record data from down hole pressure gauges for calculations on AOF (Absolute Open Flow) and reserve size.
Empress Prospect, Alberta, Canada
On August 12, 2005 the Company entered in to an agreement with Vega Resources Inc., an Alberta company, for a 100% working interest with a 40% GORR on four sections of Crown PNG property. The Company retained Transaction Oil and Gas Services, Ltd. for drilling well 12-15 at an AFE of $450,000 drilling and casing. Drilling has been tentatively scheduled for August 22, 2005.
The Empress natural gas exploration project consists of 4 sections of Crown P&NG rights in eastern Alberta. The Project is a multi-objective gas play. Cumulative production from this reservoir has been over 2 Bcf from lands contiguous to the Project.
Pressure analysis indicates that large reserves remain in the zone and mapping indicates that the reservoir extends under the Project lands. D.S.T. (Drill Stem Tests) shows, mapping and seismic indicate additional oil potential in the Bakken and other objective gas potential in the Colony and Second White Specks zones.
Well licensing and permitting are secured and Transaction Oil and Gas Ventures LLC will be the Operator of the well.
The Empress Project is located in eastern Alberta approximately 160 miles due east of the City of Calgary . The surface consists of gently rolling farm and ranch land with year round access and an established production and equipment infrastructure.
Data recorded identifies five (5) underlying zones, Bakken, Banff, Detrital, Colony and Viking are all proven producing structures in the area. Seismic indicates a Bakken high under the project as well seismic indicates a Banff limestone high under the license, overlying the Bakken high. The Colony sand has tested gas in the area. Viking formation gas wells in the area produce gas at rates of up to 3 Mmcf per day.
The Viking zone, 85 meters above the Colony, contains natural gas in wells contiguous to both southwest and north sides of the Project. Mapping indicates that the reservoir continues under the Project land. Pressure analysis of producing gas wells shows that 16 BCF of natural gas were originally in place in the Viking reservoir contiguous to the Project on the north side. Gas is present in two wells immediately south of the leases and a new discovery well “11-16” shows evidence of producing 0.50 Mmcf per day.
This area has good access for drilling rigs and well costs are expected to be in the order of $450,000 drilled cased and completed. Gas and oil delivery and sales can commence as soon as the wells are equipped and tied-in, pipeline and delivery systems are less than one (1) km from well head. Well spud date is tentatively scheduled for August 30, 2005 and will take 4 days to drill to depth of 950 meters.
Wallstin Petroleum Acquisition
On June 20, 2005 the Company entered in to a Memorandum of Understanding to acquire Wallstin Petroleum LLC with all rights, title and interest in the oil and gas leases it holds. On August 05, 2005, the Company completed the transaction by issuing 1,500,000 common shares of Quest Oil. The Company offered positions of Chief Operating Officer to Bill Stinson P.Eng. and VP Operations to Joseph Wallen. On August 15, 2005, Joseph Wallen accepted the position of CFO and Director of the Company. Mr. Wallen will be responsible for overseeing the development of the Texas assets and bringing production on stream for the Hawkeye and Nettie Gardner lease.
Nettie Gardner, McCullough County, Texas
On June 29, 2005, Quest purchased the Nettie Gardner lease for $17,500 for 100% working interest with a GORR (Gross Over Riding Royalty) of 30%.
The Nettie Gardner lease forms the southernmost extension of the EXOC Field discovered in 1976 by the Bishop-Biemer-1 well. The field is located in northwest McCulloch County, Texas approximately one mile east of the town of Lohn. Stratigraphically, the main producing formation on the Bishop-Biemer and Nettie Gardner leases is the Strawn sandstone. Primarily a shallow water marine environment, the Strawn reservoirs are comprised of point bars complexes in this area. The Strawn sandstone has been further subdivided on the lease into the Gardner sandstone and the Jennings sandstone (just above the Gardner). Oil and gas production has been established in at least seven wells between the two leases in these two sandstones.
The most productive sands on the Nettie Gardner lease are in the Jennings gas sands in the Gardner #1 well. Oil production has been established in the Gardner #2 well in the Gardner sandstone. The Gardner #1 gas well (currently shut-in) was never effectively produced.
Oil reserves are in the neighborhood of 125,000 barrels ($6,250,000). No calculation is given for the approximate amount of gas reserves. That will come approximately 4 months after a production profile has been established for the gas wells. It is estimated that the three gas wells will produce anywhere from 250 to 520 mcf a day. Oil production is anticipated to be in the neighborhood of 50 barrels a day for the three proposed oil wells (3,5,7).
Hawkeye Lease Property, Texas
On August 09, 2005 the Company concluded the purchase of the Hawkeye Lease for a sum of $90,000 for 100% working interest and a GORR of 35%.
Quest Acreage Position in Field: 440 acres (0.689 sq. miles)
Although the producing reservoir in the Hawkeye Field is the shallow Adams Branch Limestone, every formation from Ellenberger up to the Adams Branch Limestone has produced oil in Eastland County. Preliminary estimates indicate approximately 1.2 million barrels of recoverable oil left in the Adams Branch Limestone in the Hawkeye Field. Due to the low reservoir pressures and previous production at this shallow level, water injection will have to be utilized to facilitate this recovery.
The reservoirs below the Adams Branch Limestone are virginal, i.e.; they have never been produced. The source for the oil in the Adams Branch Limestone is the Barnett Shale that underlies most of the area and is probably in the oil and gas window in terms of maturity.
The biggest producer in the Hawkeye Field will ultimately be the Barnett Shale. This formation has been penetrated and does produce in the county. Its reservoir properties are uniform throughout the Fort Worth Basin, the only variation being thickness. The Railroad Commission has lowered the spacing for Barnett Wells down to 20 acres. This means the Company can drill approximately 20 wells in the Barnett Shale on the lease.
Typical production for these wells based on our staff’s personal experience and studies published by Devon and EOG is approximately 1-2.5 BCF of gas per well. Our reserves in the Hawkeye Field will range from 20-50 BCF, estimated value of $30 million to $75 million, or $1.50/mcf. This is approximately 3.5 to 8.5 million barrels of oil equivalent in the Barnett alone. It is anticipated that the Ellenberger Limestone below the Barnett will be productive and as will the Marble Falls Limestone above the Barnett and the Bend and Caddo formations.
Formation Reserves
Adams Branch Limestone | 1.2 million barrels of Oil |
Marble Falls Limestone | 2.5 million barrels of Oil |
Barnett Shale | 3.5–8.5 million barrels of Oil |
Ellenberger | 4.5 million barrels of Oil |
Estimated value of the oil reserves is $11.7 million to $16.7 million, or $10/barrel of oil in place.
A 3D seismic program has been planned to image the field and insure that optimum drilling locations are picked. This program will cover approximately one square mile and use a vibrator source.
The lease will require a capital budget of $240,000 to have remedial service work done to the property to re-establish production from the 95 wells now on the lease. When drilling commences on Barnett Shale zone additional expenditures and reserves will be realized by the Company.

The Company used these funds in order to commence drilling on the “15-34” well of the Acadia North project.
On July 21, 2005, the holders of some convertible notes issued on May 23, 2005 converted the notes into 4,788,722 shares.
On August 4, 2005, the Company filed a Form SB-2 Registration Statement to sell 35,711,528 common shares by the selling securityholders identified in the prospectus of which 20,490,549 may be issued and sold upon the exercise of certain warrants. The selling securityholders will determine when they will sell their shares, and in all cases, will sell their shares at the current market price or at negotiated prices at the time of the sale. Although the Company has agreed to pay the expenses related to the registration of the shares being offered, the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling securityholders or upon conversion of the notes; however, the Company may receive $6,984,625 from the exercise of the warrants. The Company has agreed to pay the placement agent a cash fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the proceeds the Company receives from the exercise of th e warrants.
We currently have limited capital with which to satisfy our cash requirements. As of August 18, 2005, we have approximately $100,000 cash on hand remaining. We will require significant additional capital in order to explore for new projects and to begin drilling.
Our expectations are based on certain assumptions concerning the anticipated costs associated with any new projects. These assumptions concern future events and circumstances that our officers believe to be significant to our operations and upon which our working capital requirements will depend. Some assumptions will invariably not materialize and some unanticipated events and circumstances occurring subsequent to the date of this annual report. We will continue to seek to fund our capital requirements over the next 12 months from the additional sale of our securities, however, it is possible that we will be unable to obtain sufficient additional capital through the sale of our securities as needed.
The amount and timing of our future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including the level of funding received by us anticipated private placements of our common stock and the level of funding obtained through other financing sources, and the timing of such funding.
We intend to retain any future earnings to retire any existing debt, finance the expansion of our business and any necessary capital expenditures, and for general corporate purposes.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $411,006 for the period ended June 30, 2005, and has negative working capital. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Management intends to finance anticipated ongoing expenses and capital requirements with funds generated from cash provided by operating activities; available cash and cash investments; and capital raised through debt and equity offerings.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS
The Company has no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oil and Gas Activities
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and gas activities; accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized within the appropriate cost center. Any internal costs that are capitalized are limited to those costs that can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration, and development activities undertaken by the Company for its own account, and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities.
All capitalized costs within a cost center are depleted on the units-of-production method based on estimated proved reserves attributable to the oil and gas properties owned by the Company.
For each cost center, capitalized costs less accumulated depletion and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed the cost center ceiling. The cost center ceiling is equal to the sum of: (a) the present value of estimated future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing the proved reserves computed using a 10 percent discount factor; (b) the cost of properties not being amortized; (c) the lower of cost or fair market value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; and (d) income tax effects related to the differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. Any excess is charged to expense during the period in which the excess occurs.
Sales of oil and gas properties, whether or not being amortized currently, are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas attributable to a cost center. Abandonments of oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs, and are amortized and subject to the cost center ceiling limitation.
Equipment
Equipment is recorded at historical cost. The declining-balance method is used for the assets at the following annual rates:
Computer equipment
30%
Foreign Currency Transactions
Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates; other assets and liabilities have been translated at the rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Revenue and expense items, except for amortization, are translated at the average rate of exchange for the year. Amortization is converted using rates prevailing at dates of acquisition. Gains and losses from foreign currency translation are included in the statement of operations.. All figures presented are in US dollars.
Stock based compensation
The Company has elected to value stock based compensation granted at the fair value as determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
EMPLOYEES
We currently do not have any employee; however, on a contract basis, we have two individual working for the Company in our Texas office and 4 individuals working in Canada. We have not entered into a collective bargaining agreement with any union. We have not experienced any work stoppages and consider the relations with the individuals working for us to be good.
