Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies a) Basis of presentation The Company is in the process of evaluating business opportunities and has minimal operating expenses. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The accompanying condensed interim financial statements of Arvana Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. The condensed interim financial statements and notes appearing in this report should be read in conjunction with our 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, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) on April 21, 2022. Results are not necessarily indicative of those which may be achieved in future periods. b) Estimates The preparation of 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. c) 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. The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, are as follows: Estimated fair values March 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Cash $ 3,118 $ 3,118 $ 3,340 $ 3,340 Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 60,695 60,695 54,931 54,931 Loans payable to stockholders 15,500 15,500 15,500 15,500 Loans payable to related party 300 300 300 300 Amounts due to related parties 37,038 37,038 34,194 34,194 The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022, 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: Fair Value, Assets Measured on Recurring Basis March 31, 2022 Quoted Prices Significant Significant Assets: Cash $ 3,118 $ 3,118 $ — $ — The fair value of cash is determined through market, observable, and corroborated sources. d) Recent accounting pronouncements New and amended standards adopted by the Company The were no new standards adopted by the Company in this reporting period. |
