Nature of Operations | |||
We (“United American Petroleum Corp.” the “Company”, “we”, “us,” or “our”) are an exploration company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and gas properties. Our principal business is the acquisition of leasehold interests in petroleum and natural gas rights, either directly or indirectly, and the exploitation and development of properties subject to these leases. Our primary focus is to develop our properties that have potential for near-term production. We also provide operational expertise for several third party well owners out of our operational base in Austin, Texas. We currently have proved reserves in the State of Texas. | |||
On January 13, 2011, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, UAP Management, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, for the purpose of managing the Gabriel Rosser, LP. | |||
On January 13, 2011, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, United Operating, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, for the purpose of operating and managing the various interests acquired from Patriot Minerals, LLC. | |||
Basis of Presentation | |||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include United American Petroleum Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We made certain reclassifications to prior-period amounts to conform to the current presentation. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2 | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Use of Estimates | |||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. | |||
Principles of consolidation | |||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United American Petroleum and our wholly owned subsidiary, United Operating LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. | |||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||
All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of acquisition are considered to be cash equivalents. | |||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||
The Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short period to maturity of these instruments. | |||
Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | |||
The Company collects its receivables on its working interests in oil and gas properties from well operators. As such, the Company generally has relatively few customers. These receivables are unsecured and the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the well operators’ financial condition whenever necessary. We regularly review collectability and establish or adjust an allowance for uncollectible amounts as necessary using the specific identification method, and we write off receivables after all means of collections have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is remote. The accumulated balance for allowance for uncollectible account were $267,790 and $199,813 for the periods ending December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We recorded bad debt expense of $67,978 and $226,986 for the periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We wrote off receivables of $0 and $27,173, for the periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | |||
Revenue Recognition- Oil and Gas | |||
The Company recognizes oil and gas revenue from interests in producing wells using the “sales method.” Under this method of accounting, revenues are recognized based on volumes sold, which may differ from the volume to which we are entitled based on our working interest. An imbalance is recognized as a liability only when the estimated remaining reserves will not be sufficient to enable the under–produced owner(s) to recoup its entitled share through future production. Under the sales method, no receivables are recorded where we have taken less than our share of production. Our net imbalance position at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, was immaterial. | |||
Revenue Recognition – Administrative Income | |||
The Company will record revenue for administrative income in accordance with ASC 605. The criteria for recognition are as follows: | |||
1) | Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; | ||
2) | Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; | ||
3) | The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and | ||
4) | Collectability is reasonably assured. | ||
Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the services performed and the collectability of those amounts. | |||
The Company operates certain wells where the Company also has an ownership interest. For these partially owned wells, no administrative income is recognized. Rather, operating fees received from other well interest owners are recorded as a reduction to the full cost pool per the full cost rules. | |||
Oil and Gas Properties | |||
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with the exploration of properties are capitalized into appropriate cost centers within the full cost pool. Internal costs that are capitalized are limited to those costs that can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration, and development activities undertaken and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. Cost centers are established on a country-by-country basis. | |||
Capitalized costs within the cost centers are amortized on the unit-of-production basis using proved oil and gas reserves. The cost of investments in unevaluated properties and major development projects are excluded from capitalized costs to be amortized until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. Until such a determination is made, the properties are assessed annually to ascertain whether impairment | |||
has occurred. The costs of drilling exploratory dry holes are included in the amortization base immediately upon determination that the well is dry. | |||
Capitalized costs within the cost centers are amortized on the unit-of-production basis using proved oil and gas reserves. The cost of investments in unproved properties and major development projects are excluded from capitalized costs to be amortized until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. Until such a determination is made, the properties are assessed annually to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. The costs of drilling exploratory dry holes are included in the amortization base immediately upon determination that the well is dry. | |||
For each cost center, capitalized costs are subject to an annual ceiling test, in which the costs shall not exceed the cost center ceiling. The cost center ceiling is equal to i) the present value of estimated future net revenues computed by applying current prices of oil and gas reserves (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented, less estimated future expenditures (based on current costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves computed using a discount factor of ten percent and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions; plus ii) the cost of properties not being amortized; plus iii) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; less iv) income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. If unamortized costs capitalized within a cost center, less related deferred income taxes, exceed the cost center ceiling, the excess is charged to expense and separately disclosed during the period in which the excess occurs. | |||
Asset Retirement Obligations | |||
ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. Specifically, ASC 410 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. In addition, the asset retirement cost is capitalized as part of the asset’s carrying value and subsequently allocated to expense over the asset’s useful life. | |||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||
Accounting standards regarding fair value of financial instruments define fair value, establish a three-level hierarchy which prioritizes and defines the types of inputs used to measure fair value, and establish disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities presented at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. | |||
Fair value is the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A liability is quantified at the price it would take to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not at the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. | |||
The three-level hierarchy is as follows: | |||
● | Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets | ||
● | Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar instruments | ||
● | Level 3 valuations are derived from inputs which are significant and unobservable and have the lowest priority | ||
Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We have determined that certain warrants outstanding during the period and certain convertible notes covered by these financial statements qualify as derivative financial instruments under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock.” See Note 6 – Fair Value for more details. | |||
The fair value of these warrants and derivative liabilities was determined using the Black Scholes Model with any change in fair value during the period recorded in earnings as “Gain on derivative warrant liability.” Significant inputs used to calculate the fair value of the warrants include expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. | |||
Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets | |||
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. | |||
Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. | |||
Share-Based Compensation | |||
The Company accounts for share-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). This requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. | |||
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no outstanding employee stock options. | |||
The Company accounts for share-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). This requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to non-employees. | |||
On September 13, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2013 Stock Plan for Officers, Directors, and Consultants (the “2013 Plan”). The 2013 Plan provided for the issuance of a total of up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock, options, restricted share units, share appreciation rights and other share based awards to acquire common stock to employees, directors and consultants. A total of 564,000 shares were issued under the 2013 Plan during the year ended December 31, 2013. | |||
Income Taxes | |||
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”). ASC 740-10 requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized. | |||
Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share | |||
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed in the same way as basic earnings (loss) per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would be outstanding if all potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. | |||
Property and Equipment | |||
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using principally the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited | |||
for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized. | |||
The range of estimated useful lives used to calculated depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follow: | |||
Asset Category | Depreciation Period | ||
Furniture and Fixtures | 5 Years | ||
Automobiles | 5 Years | ||
Equipment | 10 Years | ||

The Company has a working capital deficit at December 31, 2014 and negative operating cash flows since inception These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management is working to secure additional financing through the sale of debt or equity instruments. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the company is a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. |

Credit Facility – January 31, 2013 | |||||||||||||
On January 31, 2013, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with an investor pursuant to which the investor agreed to lend the Company up to $400,000 in multiple installments in exchange for a senior secured convertible promissory note with a conversion price equal to 60% of the lowest trading price per share during the previous 25 trading days. The first installment of $55,000 was delivered less a fee of $5,000 on the date of the Purchase Agreement. The second installment of $25,000 was delivered in April 2013. The notes mature on January 31, 2014, or upon default, whichever is earlier and bear interest at an annual rate of 12%. As described in Note 5, the embedded conversion feature qualified for liability classification at fair value. As a result, the Company recorded a full discount of $55,000 to the note payable on issuance of the first installment, and a full discount of $25,000 to the note payable on issuance of the second installment. As of December 31, 2014, there was $0 in outstanding principal and outstanding original interest discount (OID) on this note. | |||||||||||||

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||
Fair Value | 6 | Fair Value | |||||||||||||||
The Company measures fair value in accordance with a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: | |||||||||||||||||
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; | ||||||||||||||||
Level 2 | Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and | ||||||||||||||||
Level 3 | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). | ||||||||||||||||
As described in Note 5, the Company issued a convertible note with certain reset provisions, The Company accounted for these reset provisions in accordance with ASC 815-40, which requires that the Company bifurcate the embedded conversion option as liability at the grant date and to record changes in fair value relating to the conversion option liability in the statement of operations as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The debt discount related to the convertible note is amortized over the life of the note using the effective interest method. | |||||||||||||||||
The conversion options embedded in these instruments contain no explicit limit to the number of shares to be issued upon settlement and as a result are classified as liabilities under ASC 815. Additionally, because the number of shares to be issued upon settlement is indeterminate, all other share settle-able instruments must also be classified as liabilities. As a result, the Company measured its outstanding warrants on December 31, 2014 at fair value and re-classified these amounts from additional paid-in capital to derivative liabilities. | |||||||||||||||||
The following table sets forth the Company’s consolidated financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. | |||||||||||||||||

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the gain on embedded derivatives of $111,655 in the condensed consolidated statement of operations consisted of a loss on the change in fair value of $292,198 and a gain of $180,663 which was the amount by which the embedded derivative liabilities exceeded the principal of the related notes payable on the date the notes were issued | |||||||||||||||||
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the gain on embedded derivatives of $382,269 in the condensed consolidated statement of operations consisted of a gain on the change in fair value of $442,483 and a loss of $60,214 which was the amount by which the embedded derivative liabilities exceeded the principal of the related notes payable on the date the notes were issued. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company’s conversion option liabilities are valued using pricing models and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Where possible, the Company verifies the values produced by its pricing models to market prices. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility and correlations of such inputs. These consolidated financial liabilities do not trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs cannot generally be verified and do involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are typically classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
January 31, 2014 Convertible Note Installments | |||||||||||||||||
As described in Note 5, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement on January 31, 2013. The Company converted shares in several installments, and determined a fair value for the conversion option liability at each conversion, recognizing a non-cash loss included in other income (expense). | |||||||||||||||||

Crude oil and natural gas reserves engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of crude oil and natural gas that cannot be precisely measured. The accuracy of any reserves estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate may justify revision of such estimate. Accordingly, reserves estimates are often different from the quantities of crude oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. | |||||||||
Reserves Estimates. Our proved reserve information as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was estimated by Mire and Associates, Inc. (“Mire”), independent petroleum engineers. In accordance with SEC guidelines, Mire’s estimates of future net revenues from our properties, and the PV-10 and standardized measure thereof, were determined to be economically producible under existing economic conditions, which requires the use of the 12-month average price for each product, calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for the period January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014, except where such guidelines permit alternate treatment, including the use of fixed and determinable contractual price escalations. | |||||||||
The technical persons at Mire are responsible for preparing the reserves estimates presented herein and meets the requirements regarding qualifications, independence, objectivity, and confidentiality set forth in the Standards Pertaining to the Estimating and Auditing of Oil and Gas Reserves Information promulgated by the Society of Petroleum Engineers. Michael Carey, our Chief Executive Officer and a director, acted as the liaison with the technical persons at Mire. | |||||||||
Definitions. The following definitions apply to the terms used in the paragraphs above: | |||||||||
Reserves Estimate: The determination of an estimate of a quantity of oil or gas reserves that are thought to exist at a certain date, considering existing prices and reservoir conditions. | |||||||||
Proved Oil and Gas Reserves Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for | |||||||||
the estimation. The project to produce the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time. | |||||||||
Developed Oil and Gas Reserves Proved developed oil and gas reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared with the cost of a new well. | |||||||||
Undeveloped Oil and Gas Reserves Proved undeveloped oil and gas reserves (PUDs) are reserves that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. Undrilled locations can be classified as having undeveloped reserves only if a development plan has been adopted indicating that they are scheduled to be drilled within five years, unless the specific circumstances, justify a longer time. | |||||||||
For complete definitions of proved natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil reserves, refer to SEC Regulation S-X, Rule 4-10(a)(6), (22) and (31). | |||||||||
Oil and Gas Reserve Information. The following reserve quantities for our proved reserves located in the State of Texas in the United States have been estimated as of December 31, 2014. The determination of oil and gas reserves is based on estimates, which are highly complex and interpretive. The estimates are subject to continuing change as additional information becomes available. | |||||||||

This information is not the fair value nor does it represent the expected present value of future cash flows of our proved oil and gas reserves. | |||||||||
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is provided using the 12-month unweighted arithmetic average and were held constant throughout the life of the properties. The oil price used as of December 31, 2014 was $91.48 per bbl of oil and $4.35 per MMbtu of natural gas. Future production costs are based on year-end costs and include severance and ad valorem taxes. Each property that is leased by us is also charged with field-level overhead in the reserve calculation. The present value of future cash inflows is based on a 10% discount rate, which is required by the standards. | |||||||||

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates | ||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. | |||
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of consolidation | ||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United American Petroleum and our wholly owned subsidiary, United Operating LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. | |||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents | ||
All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of acquisition are considered to be cash equivalents. | |||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||
The Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short period to maturity of these instruments. | |||
Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | ||
The Company collects its receivables on its working interests in oil and gas properties from well operators. As such, the Company generally has relatively few customers. These receivables are unsecured and the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the well operators’ financial condition whenever necessary. We regularly review collectability and establish or adjust an allowance for uncollectible amounts as necessary using the specific identification method, and we write off receivables after all means of collections have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is remote. The accumulated balance for allowance for uncollectible account were $267,790 and $199,813 for the periods ending December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We recorded bad debt expense of $67,978 and $226,986 for the periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We wrote off receivables of $0 and $27,173, for the periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | |||
Revenue Recognition- Oil and Gas | Revenue Recognition- Oil and Gas | ||
The Company recognizes oil and gas revenue from interests in producing wells using the “sales method.” Under this method of accounting, revenues are recognized based on volumes sold, which may differ from the volume to which we are entitled based on our working interest. An imbalance is recognized as a liability only when the estimated remaining reserves will not be sufficient to enable the under–produced owner(s) to recoup its entitled share through future production. Under the sales method, no receivables are recorded where we have taken less than our share of production. Our net imbalance position at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, was immaterial. | |||
Revenue Recognition - Administrative Income | Revenue Recognition – Administrative Income | ||
The Company will record revenue for administrative income in accordance with ASC 605. The criteria for recognition are as follows: | |||
1) | Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; | ||
2) | Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; | ||
3) | The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and | ||
4) | Collectability is reasonably assured. | ||
Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the services performed and the collectability of those amounts. | |||
The Company operates certain wells where the Company also has an ownership interest. For these partially owned wells, no administrative income is recognized. Rather, operating fees received from other well interest owners are recorded as a reduction to the full cost pool per the full cost rules. | |||
Oil and Gas Properties | Oil and Gas Properties | ||
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and gas properties. Under the full cost method, all costs associated with the exploration of properties are capitalized into appropriate cost centers within the full cost pool. Internal costs that are capitalized are limited to those costs that can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration, and development activities undertaken and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. Cost centers are established on a country-by-country basis. | |||
Capitalized costs within the cost centers are amortized on the unit-of-production basis using proved oil and gas reserves. The cost of investments in unevaluated properties and major development projects are excluded from capitalized costs to be amortized until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. Until such a determination is made, the properties are assessed annually to ascertain whether impairment | |||
has occurred. The costs of drilling exploratory dry holes are included in the amortization base immediately upon determination that the well is dry. | |||
Capitalized costs within the cost centers are amortized on the unit-of-production basis using proved oil and gas reserves. The cost of investments in unproved properties and major development projects are excluded from capitalized costs to be amortized until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to the properties. Until such a determination is made, the properties are assessed annually to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. The costs of drilling exploratory dry holes are included in the amortization base immediately upon determination that the well is dry. | |||
For each cost center, capitalized costs are subject to an annual ceiling test, in which the costs shall not exceed the cost center ceiling. The cost center ceiling is equal to i) the present value of estimated future net revenues computed by applying current prices of oil and gas reserves (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented, less estimated future expenditures (based on current costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves computed using a discount factor of ten percent and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions; plus ii) the cost of properties not being amortized; plus iii) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized; less iv) income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the properties. If unamortized costs capitalized within a cost center, less related deferred income taxes, exceed the cost center ceiling, the excess is charged to expense and separately disclosed during the period in which the excess occurs. | |||
Asset Retirement Obligations | Asset Retirement Obligations | ||
ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. Specifically, ASC 410 requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. In addition, the asset retirement cost is capitalized as part of the asset’s carrying value and subsequently allocated to expense over the asset’s useful life. | |||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||
Accounting standards regarding fair value of financial instruments define fair value, establish a three-level hierarchy which prioritizes and defines the types of inputs used to measure fair value, and establish disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities presented at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. | |||
Fair value is the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A liability is quantified at the price it would take to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not at the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. | |||
The three-level hierarchy is as follows: | |||
● | Level 1 inputs consist of unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets | ||
● | Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar instruments | ||
● | Level 3 valuations are derived from inputs which are significant and unobservable and have the lowest priority | ||
Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We have determined that certain warrants outstanding during the period and certain convertible notes covered by these financial statements qualify as derivative financial instruments under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock.” See Note 6 – Fair Value for more details. | |||
The fair value of these warrants and derivative liabilities was determined using the Black Scholes Model with any change in fair value during the period recorded in earnings as “Gain on derivative warrant liability.” Significant inputs used to calculate the fair value of the warrants include expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. | |||
Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets | Recoverability of Long-Lived Assets | ||
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. | |||
Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. | |||
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation | ||
The Company accounts for share-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). This requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. | |||
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no outstanding employee stock options. | |||
The Company accounts for share-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). This requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to non-employees. | |||
On September 13, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2013 Stock Plan for Officers, Directors, and Consultants (the “2013 Plan”). The 2013 Plan provided for the issuance of a total of up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock, options, restricted share units, share appreciation rights and other share based awards to acquire common stock to employees, directors and consultants. A total of 564,000 shares were issued under the 2013 Plan during the year ended December 31, 2013. | |||
Income taxes | Income Taxes | ||
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”). ASC 740-10 requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized. | |||
Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share | ||
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed in the same way as basic earnings (loss) per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would be outstanding if all potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. | |||
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment | ||
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using principally the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited | |||
for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized. | |||
The range of estimated useful lives used to calculated depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follow: | |||
Asset Category | Depreciation Period | ||
Furniture and Fixtures | 5 Years | ||
Automobiles | 5 Years | ||
Equipment | 10 Years |
