NOTE-3 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of GHNA and its subsidiaries and VIE. All inter-company balances and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries and VIE have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The Company has adopted the ASC Topic 810-10-25, “Variable Interest Entities” (“ASC 810-10-25”). ASC 810-10-25 requires a variable interest entity or VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns.
● | Variable interest entity (“VIE”) |
The Company’s operating subsidiary, Yikoule operates its trading of fruits, vegetables and dry food products in the PRC, through its variable interest entity namely Yixinrong.
A series of agreements were entered into amongst Yikoule and Yixinrong, providing Yikoule the ability to control Yixinrong, including its financial interest as described below:
1. | Option Agreement, Yikoule has the option to purchase all of Yixinrong’s assets and ownership at any time. |
2. | Operating Agreement and Exclusive Consulting Services Agreement, Yikoule is appointed as its exclusive service provider to provide business support and related consulting services. Yixinrong is agreed to pay the consulting and service fee which equal to 100% of their net profits to Yikoule. |

3. | Pledge Agreement, Yixinrong agreed to pledge their legal interest to Yikoule as a security for the obligations of Yixinrong under the exclusive consulting services agreement. |
With the above agreements, Yikoule demonstrates its ability to control Yixinrong as the primary beneficiary and the operating results of the VIE are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.
● | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
● | Accounts receivable, trade |
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has pledged its accounts receivable as collateral for short-term bank borrowings.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company has not recorded the allowance for doubtful accounts.
● | Purchase deposits, trade |
Purchase deposits represented prepayments to vendors for the procurement of agricultural products in the normal course of business. Purchase deposits are recorded when payment is made by the Company and relieved against accounts payable when the agricultural products are received by the Company.
Land use rights represented the aggregate rent payments of farmland use rights for approximately 350.56 acres of farmlands to develop the agricultural plantation bases in Fujian and Gansu Province, the PRC. The land use rights are recorded at cost and amortized on the straight-line method over the lease term of 10 years, due through September 2019.

Expenditure for maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred. The gain or loss on the disposal of plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the statement of operations.
● | Impairment of long-lived assets |
In accordance with the ASC Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, ,the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including plant and equipment and land use rights for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. There has been no impairment as of June 30, 2010.
In accordance with the ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.
(a) Product sales
(i) Trading of agricultural products
The Company generates revenue from the distribution and re-sale of agricultural products such as fruits, vegetables and dry food products in the PRC. Under the terms of various arrangements, the Company usually performs as an agent and receives a fixed, contracted percentage of service fee, based upon the invoiced amount of agricultural products procured on the client’s behalf.
The Company has followed the guidance of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross As A Principal Versus Net As An Agent” (“EITF 99-19”) whereby the Company evaluates transactions on a case by case basis to determine whether the transaction should be recorded on a gross basis as a principal or net basis as an agent. This evaluation includes, but not limited to, assessing whether the Company (1) or third-party supplier is a primary obligor in the arrangement, (2) has general inventory risk, (3) has latitude in establishing pricing, (4) has discretion in supplier selection, (5) can physically change the product, (6) has credit risk and (7) acts as an agent or broker with compensation on a commission or fixed fee basis.
Net basis as an agent
Based on its assessment of the indicators listed in the EIFT 99-19, the Company has concluded that the existing trading business should be accounted for on a net basis. Accordingly, revenue is recognized when services are performed and recorded, net of the purchase costs paid to the suppliers, as the Company is not the primary obligor assuming no risk and rewards of ownership of the agricultural products, the percentage earned is typically fixed and does not bear general inventory and credit risk.
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, the gross revenue generated from trading of agricultural products was $11,098,060.
Gross basis as a principal
In any instance, the Company assumes the position of primary obligor and thus will recognize revenue on the gross amount billed to the customers when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the products are delivered, the fee is fixed and determined and the collection of the resulting receivable is probable. Under the gross basis accounting, the related cost of revenue will be separately recorded, which primarily consists of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, purchase costs of agricultural products for re- sale , subcontracting fee, amortization of land use rights and other operating costs directly attributable to the trading business.

Since these frozen lunch boxes are perishable, the right of return is limited to 24 hours after the delivery date.
(b) Catering service and restaurant sales
(i) Catering services
Catering services are either provided at the customers’ workplaces or the Company’s central kitchens under the contract for the period ranging from 3 months to 1 year.

Shipping and handling costs, associated with the distribution of catering products to the customers, are recorded in cost of revenue and are recognized when the related catering products is shipped to the customer.
● | Government subsidy income |

Subsidy income is recognized in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations at the period when it was received from the local PRC government.
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources.

The provision for income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of June 30, 2010, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
The Company conducts major businesses in the PRC and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the foreign tax authority.
The Company calculates net income per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common stocks were dilutive.
● | Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the statement of operations.
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company’s operating subsidiaries in the PRC maintain their books and record in their local currency, Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company operates in two reportable operating segments: catering/food distribution business and agricultural business in the PRC.
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820"), establishes a new framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures. Broadly, ASC 820 framework requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
For financial assets and liabilities, fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.
● | Fair value of financial instruments |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, income tax payable, accrued liabilities and other payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values. The estimated fair value of short-term bank borrowing was approximately $205,000 as of June 30, 2010, based on current market prices or interest rates. Any changes in fair value of assets or liabilities carried at fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income for each period.

● | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued certain amendments as codified in ASC Topic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition; Multiple-Element Arrangements.” These amendments provide clarification on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the arrangement should be separated, and the consideration allocated. An entity is required to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables in the absence of vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price. These amendments also eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. The amendments significantly expand the disclos ure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. These provisions are to be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with earlier application permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of these amendments in its fiscal year 2011 and is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments to its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-11, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) — Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” ASU 2010-11 clarifies that the only form of an embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The provisions of ASU 2010-11 will be effective on July 1, 2010 and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s cons olidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. ASU 2010-13 provides guidance on the classification of a share-based payment award as either equity or a liability. A share-based payment that contains a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition is required to be classified as a liability. ASU 2010-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In May 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-19, Foreign Currency (Topic 830): Foreign Currency Issues: Multiple Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. The amendments in ASU 2010-19 are effective as of the announcement date of March 18, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-19 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In July 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that will require additional disclosures about the credit quality of loans, lease receivables and other long-term receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. Certain additional disclosures in this new accounting guidance will be effective for the Company on December 31, 2010 with certain other additional disclosures that will be effective on March 31, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new accounting guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”))
(Unaudited)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, there was no vendor who accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s purchases.
(c) Credit risk
No financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk. Concentrations of credit risk are limited due to the Company’s large number of transactions are on the cash basis.
(d) Exchange rate risk
The reporting currency of the Company is US$, to date the majority of the revenues and costs are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as its revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US$ and RMB. If RMB depreciates against US$, the value of RMB revenues and assets as expressed in US$ financial statements will decline. The Company does not hold any derivative or other financial instruments that expose to substantial market risk.
(e) Interest rate risk
As the Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.
The Company’s interest-rate risk arises from short-term bank borrowing. Borrowing issued at variable rate expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company manages interest rate risk by varying the issuance and maturity dates variable rate debt, limiting the amount of variable rate debt, and continually monitoring the effects of market changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2010, the borrowing was at fixed rate.
NOTE-18 | COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES |

We disclaim any obligation to update any such factors or to announce publicly the results of any revisions of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or developments.
Overview
We generate revenues from two sources:
| ● | Catering/Food Distribution business |
| ● | Agricultural business |
In our Catering/Food Distribution business, we cook and supply traditional Chinese meals. We use fresh ingredients and if possible natural products certified under Chinese law as pollution-free materials. We sell semi-cooked meals (catering services) to factories, operate restaurants (restaurant sales) and frozen lunch boxes to convenience stores and supermarkets. Our target market for catering services and restaurant sales is mainly factory workers, white-collar workers, as well as the staff and customers in department stores, shopping malls and, for frozen lunch boxes, supermarkets. Due to the economic downturn that started in late 2008 and because of concerns about the financial ability of our customers to make timely payments, we substantially reduced our catering/food distribution business. ;Commencing the third quarter of 2009, we have begun to ramp up these businesses again, now serving approximately 35 factory locations and starting with marketing of lunch boxes to supermarket chains.
We have two lines of operation in our agricultural business:
| ● | Agricultural Trading – We trade agricultural products as an agent from other companies or agricultural producers for resale during 2009. Beginning in 2010, we no longer act as agents and all revenue during 2010 is reported gross. |
| | |
| ● | Agricultural Plantation – Since 2009, we lease land use rights and sub-contract the cultivation right to the existing farmers of the leased farmland to grow agricultural products in accordance with our specification and re- sell the agricultural products. Starting in 2010, we anticipate that we will also use some of these products as a minor amount of raw materials in our catering/food distribution business. |
We expect to expand our catering/food distribution business to the cities of Shanghai and Suzhou in the fourth quarter of 2010.
As of June 30, 2010, our catering/food distribution operations are located in Quanzhou, Ningbo City and Xiamen City, China. During the third quarter of 2009, we leased the factory in Ningbo and carried out factory renovations and equipment investments. The factory is fully operational.
We also anticipate an increase in our agricultural products given the Chinese government’s current preferential national policy towards the agricultural industry is currently at a low level of development. We plan to expand sales to Shanghai and Suzhou regions in the future.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2010 and the three months ended June 30, 2009
The following table compares the revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to the three months ended June 30, 2009.
| | Three Months Ended | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, | | | | | | | |

Product net sales | | | - | | | | 1,026,630 | | | | (1,026,630 | ) | | | (100)% | |
Catering service and restaurant sales | | | 2,075,281 | | | | 248,263 | | | | 1,827,018 | | | | 736 % | |
| | $ | 8,642,136 | | | $ | 1,274,893 | | | $ | 7,367,243 | | | | 578 % | |
Product Sales: We generated revenue of $6,566,855 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $6,566,855 or 100% compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, we assumed the position of primary obligor and recognized revenue on a gross amount billed to the customers when the persuasive evidence of an arrangement exist, the products are delivered, the fee is fixed and determined and the collection of the resulting receivable is probable. We anticipate this business to increase as we expand into the market. On the other hand, we recorded revenue on a net basis and classified as product net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
Product net sales: We generated revenue of $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $1,026,630 or 100% compared to $1,026,630 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded the revenue net of procurement costs paid to the suppliers for the agricultural trading as these revenues were recognized on a net basis in accordance with ASC Topic 605-45-45, “Overall Consideration of Reporting Revenue Gross As A Principal Versus Net As An Agent” because we performed as an agent without assuming the risk and rewards of ownership of the distribution and sale of agricultural products. All costs associated with the delivery of prod uct are not borne by us. On the other hand, we recorded revenue on a gross basis as we assumed the position of primary obligor and classified as product sales.
Catering service and restaurant sales: We generated revenue of 2,075,281 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $1,827,018 or 736% compared to$248,263 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. During the first half year of 2009, we reduced our catering business operations in response to the economic downturn. In the third quarter of 2009, we established a new central kitchen in Ningbo as part of our growth initiative to expand our catering business. The increase in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 is primarily attributable to the increase in sales from the establishment of the Ningbo kitchen and the continued increase in sales in Quanzhou and Xiamen cities. We expect our revenues to continue to increase each quarter as our operations expand into new cities.
The following table compares the costs of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to the three months ended June 30, 2009.
Three Months Ended June 30, | |
2010 | | | 2009 | |
Cost of | | | % of | | | Cost of | | | % of | |
Revenue | | | Revenue | | | Revenue | | | Revenue | |
$ | 6,551,539 | | | | 75.8% | | | $ | 213,475 | | | | 16.7% | |
The cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was 75.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 14.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase is primarily attributable to the recognition of revenue in which we recognized in a gross basis for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Sales and marketing: We incurred sales and marketing expense of $1,571 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $14,719 compared to $16,290 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The change is not significant.
General and administrative: We incurred general and administrative expenses of $250,198 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $217,303 or 661% compared to $32,895 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase is primarily attributable to the continued expansion of our catering business operations in Ningbo City, Xiamen and Quanzhou.
Income tax expense: We recorded tax expense of $238,428 (12.5% of income before taxes) for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $16,047 (1.5% of income before taxes) for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in income tax expense is primarily due to two factors: 1) the majority of the income was contributed from Ningbo Yiqi whose statutory income tax rate is 25% and 2) the change in tax rates due to tax holiday rates gradually increasing over 5 years.
Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2010 and the six months ended June 30, 2009
The following table compares the revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Product net sales | | | - | | | | 2,134,861 | | | | (2,134,861 | ) | | | (100)% | |
Catering service and restaurant sales | | | 3,486,816 | | | | 458,759 | | | | 3,028,057 | | | | 660% | |
| | $ | 16,504,209 | | | $ | 2,593,620 | | | $ | 13,910,589 | | | | 536 % | |
Product Sales: We generated revenue of $13,017,393 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $13,017,393 or 100% compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. . For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we assumed the position of primary obligor and recognized revenue on a gross amount billed to the customers when the persuasive evidence of an arrangement exist, the products are delivered, the fee is fixed and determined and the collection of the resulting receivable is probable. We anticipate this business to increase as we expand into the market. On the other hand, we recorded revenue on a net basis and classified as product net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2009.
Product net sales: We generated revenue of $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $2,134,861 or 100% compared to $2,134,861 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we recorded the revenue net of procurement costs paid to the suppliers for the agricultural trading as these revenues were recognized on a net basis in accordance with ASC Topic 605-45-45, “Overall Consideration of Reporting Revenue Gross As A Principal Versus Net As An Agent” because we performed as an agent without assuming the risk and rewards of ownership of the distribution and sale of agricultural products. All costs associated with the delivery of product ar e not borne by us. On the other hand, we recorded revenue on a gross basis as we assumed the position of primary obligor and classified as product sales.
Catering service and restaurant sales: We generated revenue of $3,486,816 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $3,028,057 or 660% compared to$458,759 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. During the first half year of 2009, we reduced our catering business operations in response to the economic downturn. In the third quarter of 2009, we established a new central kitchen in Ningbo as part of our growth initiative to expand our catering business. The increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010 is primarily attributable to the increase in sales from the establishment of the Ningbo kitchen and the continued incr ease in sales in Quanzhou and Xiamen cities. We expect our revenues to continue to increase each quarter as our operations expand into new cities.
The following table compares the costs of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to the six months ended June 30, 2009.
Six Months Ended June 30, | |
2010 | | | 2009 | |

$ | 12,738,798 | | | | 77.2% | | | $ | 411,110 | | | | 15.9% | |
The cost of sales for as a percentage of revenue was 77.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 15.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase is primarily attributable to the recognition of revenue in which we recognized in a gross basis for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
Sales and marketing: We incurred sales and marketing expense of $10,533 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease $7,330 compared to $17,863 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Sales and marketing as a percentage of revenue was 0.1% and 0.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively. The change is not significant.

We are not currently in negotiations with any lenders or other funding sources and we are not certain that we will be able to obtain additional funding on terms favorable to us or at all.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no outstanding off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management's subjective or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management's current judgments. We believe the following accounting policies are critical in the preparation of our financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated 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 in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We periodically review long-lived assets, including plant and equipment and land use rights for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the undiscounted cash flows to the recorded value of the asset. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
(a) | Product sales |
| |
(i) | Trading of agricultural products |
The Company generates revenue from the distribution and re- sale of agricultural products such as fruits, vegetables and dry food products in the PRC. Under the terms of various arrangements, the Company usually performs as an agent and receives a fixed, contracted percentage of service fee, based upon the invoiced amount of agricultural products procured on the client’s behalf.
The Company has followed the guidance of Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 99-19, “ Reporting Revenue Gross As A Principal Versus Net As An Agent” (“EITF 99-19”) whereby the Company evaluates transactions on a case by case basis to determine whether the transaction should be recorded on a gross basis as a principal or net basis as an agent. This evaluation includes, but not limited to, assessing whether the Company (1) or third-party supplier is a primary obligor in the arrangement, (2) has general inventory risk, (3) has latitude in establishing pricing, (4) has discretion in supplier selection, (5) can physically change the product, (6) has credit risk and (7) acts as an agent or broker with compensation on a commission or fixed fee basis.
Net basis as an agent
Based on its assessment of the indicators listed in the EIFT 99-19, the Company has concluded that the existing trading business should be accounted for on a net basis. Accordingly, revenue is recognized when services are performed and recorded, net of the purchase costs paid to the suppliers, as the Company is not the primary obligor assuming no risk and rewards of ownership of the agricultural products, the percentage earned is typically fixed and does not bear general inventory and credit risk.
Gross basis as a principal
In any instance, the Company assumes the position of primary obligor and thus will recognize revenue on the gross amount billed to the customers when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the products are delivered, the fee is fixed and determined and the collection of the resulting receivable is probable. Under the gross basis accounting, the related cost of revenue will be separately recorded, which primarily consists of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, purchase costs of agricultural products for re- sale , subcontracting fee, amortization of land use rights and other operating costs directly attributable to the trading business.
(ii) | Sale of frozen lunch boxes |
The Company generally sells its frozen lunch boxes to the retail chains and convenience stores on a basis of limited return rights. Revenue is recognized when title passes upon delivery of its products to customers, net of applicable provisions for returns and allowances and business taxes. Since these frozen lunch boxes are perishable, the right of return is limited to 24 hours after the delivery date.
(b) | Catering service and restaurant sales |
| |
(i) | Catering services |
Catering services are either provided at the customers’ workplaces or the Company’s central kitchens under the contract for the period ranging from 3 months to 1 year. Revenues for catering services billed on per-unit (meal) basis are recognized as the services are sold to the customer, net of business taxes.
The Company operates restaurant to provide the meal service in the industrial zone. Revenue from restaurant sales is recognized when food and beverage products are sold to the customers, net of business taxes.
Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.
Income taxes
Our provision for income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued certain amendments as codified in ASC Topic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition; Multiple-Element Arrangements.” These amendments provide clarification on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the arrangement should be separated, and the consideration allocated. An entity is required to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables in the absence of vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price. These amendments also eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. The amendments significantly expand the disclosure requireme nts for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. These provisions are to be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with earlier application permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of these amendments in its fiscal year 2011 and is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments to its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-11, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) — Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” ASU 2010-11 clarifies that the only form of an embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The provisions of ASU 2010-11 will be effective on July 1, 2010 and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s cons olidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. ASU 2010-13 provides guidance on the classification of a share-based payment award as either equity or a liability. A share-based payment that contains a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition is required to be classified as a liability. ASU 2010-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In May 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-19, Foreign Currency (Topic 830): Foreign Currency Issues: Multiple Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. The amendments in ASU 2010-19 are effective as of the announcement date of March 18, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-19 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In July 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that will require additional disclosures about the credit quality of loans, lease receivables and other long-term receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. Certain additional disclosures in this new accounting guidance will be effective for the Company on December 31, 2010 with certain other additional disclosures that will be effective on March 31, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new accounting guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
