SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | ' |
Nature of Business |
Skookum Safety Solutions Corp. (‘Skookum” or “the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on October 19, 2010. Skookum is developing a line of baby products. Skookum is a development stage company and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. |
|
Development Stage Company |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to development-stage companies. A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there has been no significant revenues there from. |
|
Basis of Presentation |
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. |
|
Accounting Basis |
The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting). The Company has adopted an August 31 fiscal year end. |
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
Skookum considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At August 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, the Company had $17,505 and $40,948 of cash. |
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses and an amount due to an officer. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements. |
|
Income Taxes |
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. |
|
Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
|
Revenue Recognition |
The Company recognizes revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured. |
|
Foreign Currency |
The operations of the Company are located in Canada and Costa Rica. Skookum maintains both U.S. Dollar and Canadian Dollar bank accounts. The functional currency is the U.S. Dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies other than the functional currency, if any, are re-measured into the functional currency at the rate in effect at the time of the transaction. Re-measurement gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations are included in income or loss from operations due to materiality. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian Dollars are translated into U.S. Dollars at the rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses denominated in Canadian Dollars are translated at the average exchange rate. |
|
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share |
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of August 31, 2013. |
|
Stock-Based Compensation |
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options. |
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
Skookum does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow. |
