2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
|
a) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation |
|
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Career Start, Inc., a Florida Company. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. |
|
b) Use of Estimates |
|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. |
|
c) Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had no cash equivalents. |
|
d) Interim Financial Statements |
|
These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period. |
|
e) Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share |
|
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. As at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had no potentially dilutive shares. |
|
f) Revenue Recognition |
|
The Company derives revenue from contracting employees to its customers and providing consulting services. In accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the amount is fixed and determinable, risk of ownership has passed to the customer and collection is reasonably assured. |
|
g) Accounts Receivable |
|
Accounts receivable is comprised of amounts owing from customers, and is presented net of the allowance for estimated doubtful accounts. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience and current economic conditions and reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on a regular basis. The Company has factored its accounts receivable to a third party company, and the accounts receivable includes the net amount receivable to the Company after commissions and charges. |
|
h) Financial Instruments |
|
Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value: |
|
Level 1 |
|
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
Level 2 |
|
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. |
|
Level 3 |
|
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
|
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and convertible debentures. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of our cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations. |
|
The following table represents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized in fair value as of September 30, 2013, on a recurring basis: |
|
| | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | Total gains | |
$ | $ | $ | and (losses) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Derivative liabilities | | | – | | | | – | | | | 664,397 | | | | (269,112 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total | | | – | | | | – | | | | 664,397 | | | | (269,112 | ) |
|
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company had a derivative liability amount of $395,285, which was classified as a Level 3 financial instrument, and a loss on change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $245,285. |
|
i) Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
|
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. |
