Income Taxes |
6. INCOME TAXES:
The Company and its predecessor file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the states of Colorado and Utah. There are currently no income tax examinations underway for these jurisdictions. The Company filed its initial tax returns for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 with federal and Utah and December 31, 2012 is the initial tax filing period for Colorado.
The Company provides deferred income taxes for differences between the tax reporting bases and the financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities. The Company had no unrecognized income tax benefits. Should the Company incur interest and penalties relating to tax uncertainties, such amounts would be classified as a component of interest expense and operating expense, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits are not expected to increase or decrease within the next twelve months.
As of December 31, 2013, the Companys tax year for 2011 and 2012 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.
Deferred Income Taxes - The Company does not recognize the deferred income tax asset at this time because the realization of the asset is less likely than not. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has net operating losses for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $5,519,606 and $6,154,314, respectively, which are available for application against future taxable income and which will start expiring in 2031 and 2026, respectively. The benefit associated with the net operating loss carry forward will more likely than not go unrealized unless future operations are successful. Since the success of future operations is indeterminable, the potential benefits resulting from these net operating losses have not been recorded in the financial statements.
A reconciliation between the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% and our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2013, the period from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, are as follows:
