Note 2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Earnings per Share
We comply with FASB ASC No. 260 - Earnings per Share (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.128, "Earnings per Share") and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 98 which require that basic net income (loss) per common share be computed by dividing net income/(loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.Diluted net income/(loss) for the period is computed by dividing the net income/(loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares, such as convertible preferred stock, outstanding during the period.Common shares of approximately 258,323 and 41,665 issuable upon the potential conversion of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share in the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables as well as historical collection information. Credit is granted to most customers on an unsecured basis. In determining the amount of the allowance, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions. The allowance is made up of specific reserves, as deemed necessary on client account balances, and a reserve based on our historical experience.During the three month periods ending March31, 2010 and 2009, we recorded bad debt expense totaling $32,111 and $10,344, respectively.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts and the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets.Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
We comply with FASB ASC No. 740 - Income Taxes (formerly SFAS No.109, "Accounting for Income Taxes") which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.For any uncertain tax positions, we recognize the impact of a tax position, only if it is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Our policy regarding the classification of interest and penalties is to classify them |

Note 4. Preferred stock and common stock |
Note 4:Preferred stock and common stock
During the three months ended March31, 2010, we had the following preferred and common stock transactions:
-
On March 25, 2010, we issued 150,000 shares of common stock to our Chief Financial Officer in exchange for services.The fair market value of the shares totaled $27,000, or $0.18 per share, which represents the closing price on the date of issuance.
-
On March 31, 2010, we issued 458,970 shares of commons stock to two Directors of the Company for the conversion of notes payable totaling $50,000 and accrued interest of $9,666.The notes payable and accrued interest were converted at $0.13 per share, which represents the average share price over the prior twelve months.The fair value of common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.18.The difference of $0.05 per share, or $22,949, has been recorded as additional interest expense.
-
On March 31, 2010, we issued 26 shares of Series A preferred stock to our Chief Executive Officer for the conversion of a note payable in the amount of $23,525 and accrued interest of $4,245.The fair value of the preferred stock on the date of the transaction was $39,000, which was determined based upon the number of common shares issuable upon conversion of the preferred shares into common stock, 216,666, and the market price of our common stock on the date of the agreement of $0.18.The difference between the carrying value of the debt and accrued interest and the fair value of the preferred shares of $11,230 has been recorded as additional interest expense.
At March 31, 2010, we had 31 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.Although the Certificate of Designation of the rights, preferences and limitations of the Preferred Stock provides for dividends equal to elevenpercent (11.0%) per year on the liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, we have not declared or accrued such dividends. Under Delaware law, dividends are an obligation only when declared, and the Board has not declared any dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock.Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 8,333 shares of common stock. Of the outstanding preferred shares, 5 of these shares were issued by our predecessor company and the original documentation which would validate claims thereto is not available, and we are taking steps to retire those shares. |

We do not believe we had any financial instruments that could have potentially subjected us to significant concentrations of credit risk.
