SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements are as follows: Accounting Method The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the financial statements. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and 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 maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Valuation of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets such as capitalized software development and licenses, office equipment and intangible assets with definite useful lives are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable or in the period in which the held for sale criteria are met. For assets held and used, this analysis consists of comparing the asset’s carrying value to the expected future cash flows to be generated from the asset on an undiscounted basis. If the carrying amount of the asset is determined not to be recoverable, a write-down to fair value is recorded. Fair values are determined based on quoted market values, discounted cash flows, or external appraisals, as applicable. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment at the individual asset or the asset group level for which the lowest level of independent cash flows can be identified. The Company recorded an impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2017 of $290,260. Property and Equipment Property and equipment consisted of office equipment with a cost of $3,350 and with accumulated depreciation of $3,350 as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. Depreciation of office equipment is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated economic useful life of 3 years. Depreciation expense was $0 and $96 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Upon sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the determination of income or loss. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated economic useful lives. Intangible Assets Intangible assets consist of capitalized software development costs and patents and trademarks. Capitalized Software Development The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred from the time technological feasibility has been obtained until the product is generally released to customers. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins when the products are available to customers and is computed using the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. Currently, the Company anticipates amortization of software development costs to commence in fiscal year 2018. The Company achieved technological feasibility with regard to its mobile phone technology during the fourth quarter of 2010. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company reduced the book value of the capitalized software development costs by an impairment expense of $290,260. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had capitalized software development costs of $262,243 and $552,503, respectively. No amortization expense was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Patents and Trademarks The Company capitalizes the cost of patents and trademarks and amortizes the capitalized costs on a straight-line basis over 5 years from the date the patent or trademark is issued. At December 31, 2017, patents and trademarks have a cost of $168,564, accumulated amortization of $114,097, and had a net book value of $54,467. At December 31, 2016, patents and trademarks have a cost of $159,664, accumulated amortization of $83,289, and had a net book value of $76,375. Amortization expense was $30,808 and $29,263 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Future amortization expense of the Company’s existing patents and trademarks over their remaining lives will be $21,922 for 2018, $15,587 for 2019, $11,141 for 2020, $4,452 for 2021 and $815 for 2022. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment on an annual basis or when the facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recovered. Revenue Recognition The Company currently has no revenues from its operations. We anticipate that revenues from product sales, net of estimated returns and allowances, will be recognized when evidence of an arrangement is in place, related prices are fixed and determinable, contractual obligations have been satisfied, title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk. Income (Loss) Per Common Share Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common share equivalents than outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options and the exercise of convertible preferred stock. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred net losses; therefore, common stock equivalents related to the conversion of stock options and convertible preferred stock have not been included in the calculation of diluted loss per common shares because they are anti-dilutive. Therefore, basic loss per common share is the same as diluted loss per common share for both years. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has excluded a total of 32,761,983 and 30,368,773 common shares, respectively, for exercisable options and potential conversion of convertible preferred stock. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes ASC 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the uncertain tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. Our uncertain tax positions relate to certain state tax issues for which we have recorded an estimated current liability in the accompanying financial statements at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. At December 31, 2017, we determined that the statute of limitations had expired and no accrual for uncertain tax positions was needed and wrote off the $40,200 balance. The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had $0 and $9,868 of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. Research and Development The Company continues to develop additional technology which facilitates the use of in-store advertising and coupon services through various technologies. As time and technology have progressed, the system being developed by the Company comprises mobile and other state of the art technology that facilitates retailers and package good companies providing "product specific" point-of-purchase advertising to its customers using proprietary software. The Company is currently developing mobile smart phone technology that will provide similar functionality to the Klever-Kart System. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred research and development expenses of $895 and $1,343 respectively. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The FASB provides the framework for measuring fair value. ASC 820-10-50, Fair Value Measurements In determining fair value, the Company utilizes observable market data when available, or models that incorporate observable market data. In addition to market information, the Company incorporates transaction-specific details that, in management’s judgment, market participants would take into account in measuring fair value. In arriving at fair-value estimates, the Company utilizes the most observable inputs available for the valuation technique employed. If a fair-value measurement reflects inputs at multiple levels within the hierarchy, the fair-value measurement is characterized based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair-value measurement. The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 for cash and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments, which management believes are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and expected realization and their current market rate of interest. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-11, "Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-controlling Interests with a Scope Exception." Part I of this update addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II of this update addresses the difficulty of navigating Topic 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity," because of the existence of extensive pending content in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. The amendments in Part II of this update do not have an accounting effect. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently unable to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements of the adoption of this new accounting pronouncement. Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. |
