Results are not necessarily indicative of results which may be achieved in the future. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes appearing in this report should be read in conjunction with our consolidated audited financial statements and related notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 16, 2018. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates include the recognition of deferred tax assets based on the change in unrecognized deductible temporary tax differences. Financial instruments The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such values: Cash - the carrying amount approximates fair value because the amounts consist of cash held at a bank. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible loan, loans payable and amounts due to related parties - the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the obligations. Financial instruments (continued) The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 follows: March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Cash $ 3,708 $ 3,708 $ 4,730 $ 4,730 Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 1,088,046 1,088,046 1,075,409 1,075,409 Convertible loan 50,000 50,000 50,000 50,000 Loans payable to stockholders 606,068 606,068 600,651 600,651 Loans payable to related party 130,407 130,407 131,000 131,000 Loans payable 75,556 75,556 75,813 75,813 Amounts due to related parties $ 546,816 $ 546,816 $ 549,132 $ 549,132 The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2018, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset: March 31, 2018 Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Cash $ 3,708 $ 3,708 $ — $ — The fair value of cash is determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.
