| - | the estimation of oil reserves in the oilfield and the Plan of operation and maintenance phase of exploitation has not been submitted to the Federal Agency. |
According to this notification issued on April 20, 2007 the Company has 9 months to eliminate these violations.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies of the Company are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals of the United States of America, and their basis of application is consistent with that of the previous year. Outlined below are those policies considered particularly significant.
| a) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
For purposes of the statement reporting within the statement of cash flows, cash includes currency, cheques issued by others, other currency equivalents and current deposits. Cash equivalents include securities and short-term market instruments that can be easily converted into cash. Investments that mature within three months from the investment date are also included as cash equivalents.
Expenses for purchase the materials, necessary for construction work and for administrative expenses include applicable purchase costs and operating expenses. Materials and supplies inventories are recorded at the lower average cost or net realizable value.
| c) | Property, Plant and Equipment |
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at historical costs. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Building expenses for oil and petroleum gas production equipment are capitalized. Depreciation is provided, using straight-line method. The rates of depreciation are formulated to charge operation with the cost of the equipment over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Computer and other electronic equipment | 3-5 years. |
| d) | Construction in progress |
Assets in the course of construction are capitalized in the construction work in progress account. On completion, the cost of construction is transferred to the appropriate category of tangible fixed assets.
No depreciation is charged on assets in the capital work in progress account. These assets are depreciated upon their transfer to appropriate category of tangible fixed assets.
Costs related to managing capital construction are accumulated over the reporting period (financial year) and allocated at the end of the reporting period (financial year) among costs of items registered as non-operational assets as of the end of the year in proportion to actual costs incurred in the appropriate reporting period (financial year) in respect of each of the items.
Preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount reported in the financial statements and related no financial statements and related notes to financial statements. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. Actual results may ultimately differ from estimates, although management does not believe such changes will materially affect the financial statements in any individual year.
| f) | Foreign Currency Translation |
The Company accounts for foreign currency translation pursuant to SFAS No 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” (“SFAS 52”). The Company’s functional currency is the Russian Rouble. Under SFAS 52, all assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars using the current exchange rate at the end of each fiscal period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the respective periods. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the period. Certain transactions of the Company are denominated in United States dollars. Translation gains or losses related to such transactions are recognized for each reporting period in the related statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
The principal exchange rates against US dollars were:
| | 9 month ended 30 September 2006 | | 9 month ended 30 September 2007 | |
| | | | | |
AVERAGE | | | | | | | |
RUR | | | 27,3860 | | | 25,8846 | |
CLOSING | | | | | | | |
RUR | | | 26,7799 | | | 24,9493 | |
| g) | Environmental liabilities |
Liabilities for environmental remediation are recorded when it is probable that obligations have been incurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated.
| h) | Pension and post-employment benefits |
The Company’s mandatory contributions to the governmental pension plan are expensed when incurred. Discretionary pensions and other post-employment benefits are not material.
The Company’s accounting policy for taxes pursuant to SFAS No 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” SFAS No 130 establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements.
Fair Value
Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from the financial instruments.
Foreign Currency Risk Exchange restrictions and controls exist relating to converting Russian Roubles to other currencies. At present, the Russian Rouble is not a convertible currency outside the Russian Federation. Future movements in the exchange rates between the Russian Rouble and the US dollar will affect the carrying value of the Company’s Russian Rouble denominated monetary assets and liabilities. Such movements may also affect the Company’s ability to realize non-monetary assets represented in the US dollars in these consolidated financial statements. Any transaction of Russian Roubles amounts to US dollars should not be construed as a representation that such Russian Rouble amounts have been, could be, or will in the future be converted into US dollars at the exchange rate shown or at any other exchange rate.
Concentration of Credit Risk
SFAS No 105 “Disclosure of Information About Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentration of Credit Risk”, requires disclosure of any significant off-balance sheet risk and credit risk concentration. The Company does not have significant off-balance sheet risk.
| l) | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and the related estimated remaining lives when events or circumstances lead management to believe that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For the period ended September 30, 2006 and 2007, no events or circumstances occurred for which an evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets was required.
| m) | Recent Accounting Pronouncement |
In May 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") FIN 39-1, Amendment of FASB Interpretation No. 39, to amend paragraph 10 of FASB Interpretation ("FIN") 39, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts, to permit a reporting entity that is party to a master netting arrangement to offset the receivable or payable recognized upon payment or receipt of cash collateral against the fair value amounts recognized against derivative instruments that had been offset under the same master netting arrangement in accordance with paragraph 10.
FSP FIN 39-1 also amends paragraph 3 of FIN 39 to replace the terms, "conditional contracts" and "exchange contracts," with the broader term, "derivative contracts," as defined in SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. FSP FIN 39-1 applies to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early application permitted. The Company expects that FSP FIN 39-1 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
In May 2007, the FASB issued FSP FIN 48-1, Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48, an amendment of FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, to clarify that a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with paragraph 10(b) of that Interpretation if (a) the taxing authority has completed all of its required or expected examination procedures, (b) the enterprise does not intend to appeal or litigate any aspect of the tax position, and (c) it is considered remote that the taxing authority would reexamine the tax position. FSP FIN 48-1 is effective as of the same dates as FIN 48, with retrospective application required for entities that have not applied FIN 48 in a manner consistent with the provisions of the proposed FSP. The Company expects that FSP FIN 48-1 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
