NOTE 2. ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
Twentyfour/seven Ventures, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Colorado on March 8, 2007. The Company is engaged in the bail bond business. |
|
Principles of consolidation |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Twentyfour/seven Ventures, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
|
Use of Estimates |
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
|
Cash and cash equivalents |
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. |
|
Restricted cash deposits |
The Company is required by regulation to place 1% of the face amount of any bond written into a cash reserve account, called a "buildup fund", as a hedge against potential bond forfeitures. The cash deposited into the buildup fund on any given bond may be released to the Company upon bond release by a court, or after the passing of a statutory time frame, generally 36 months. The balance in the buildup fund at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $216,582 and $220,444. |
|
Accounts receivable |
The Company reviews accounts receivable periodically for collectability and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts and records bad debt expense when deemed necessary. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had an allowance for bad debt of $9,400. |
|
Property and equipment |
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated under accelerated or straight line methods over each item's estimated useful life. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company purchased office equipment in the amount of $459. |
|
Revenue recognition |
Revenue is recognized on an accrual basis after services have been performed under contract terms, the service price to the client is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. |
|
Income tax |
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to ASC 740. Under ASC 740 deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards 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 bases. 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 effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. |
|
Net income (loss) per share |
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Under the provisions of the standard, basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding during the period. Warrants, stock options, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company's preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share. |
|
Financial Instruments |
The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, as reported in the accompanying balance sheets, approximates fair value. |
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
The Company does not believe that any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |
