NOTE 16 - INCOME TAXES

 

As of December 31, 2013, we estimate we will have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future federal income tax of approximately $6.6 million. These carryforwards will expire between the years 2028 through 2031. Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the amount of and the benefit from net operating losses that can be carried forward may be limited in certain circumstances. Events that may cause changes in the our tax carryovers include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50% over a three-year period. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. We carry a deferred tax valuation allowance equal to 100% of total deferred assets. In recording this allowance, we have considered a number of factors, but chiefly, our operating losses from inception. We have concluded that a valuation allowance is required for 100% of the total deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Deferred tax assets, all of which were long-term, were comprised of the following as of December 31, 2013 and 2012:

 

 

    2013     2012  
             
Allowance for doubtful accounts   $ 29,000     $ 35,900

NOL carryforward     2,538,000       2,225,200  
Long-term deferred tax asset     2,320,000       2,199,700
