Note 2 - Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of
Presentation
The Company's financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
("U.S. GAAP").
Principles of
Consolidation
The consolidated financial
statements include all accounts of the Company and its entities as
of the reporting period ending date(s) and for the reporting
period(s) as follows:
|

All inter-company balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior
period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to
the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no
effect on reported losses.
Use of Estimates and
Assumptions
The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America 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.
The Company's significant
estimates and assumptions include the fair value of financial
instruments; allowance for doubtful accounts, normal production
capacity, inventory valuation and obsolescence; the carrying value,
recoverability and impairment of long-lived assets, including the
values assigned to and the estimated useful lives of property,
plant and equipment, land use rights, and purchased formulae;
interest rates; revenue and government grant realized or realizable
and earned; sales returns and allowances; value added tax rate,
income tax rate and related tax provision; foreign currency
exchange rate and functional currency of foreign subsidiaries.
Those significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk
of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to
those estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or
assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on
historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed
to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a
whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis
for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources.
Management regularly evaluates
the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates
utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and
circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions.
After such evaluations, and if deemed appropriate, those estimates
are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The Company follows paragraph
820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
("Paragraph 820-10-35-37") to measure the fair value of its
financial instruments and paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value
of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a
framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase
consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and
related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair
value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels.
The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph
820-10-35-37 are described below:
|
Level 1
|
|
Quoted market prices available in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the
reporting date.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2
|
|
Pricing inputs other than quoted
prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either
directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting
date.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3
|
|
Pricing inputs that are generally
observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
|
Financial assets are considered
Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models,
discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at
least one significant model assumption or input is
unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives
the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority
to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial
assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described
above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that
is significant to the fair value measurement of the
instrument.
The carrying amounts of the
Company's financial assets and liabilities, such as cash,
restricted cash - unearned government grants, banker's acceptance
notes receivable, accounts receivable, advance on purchases,
prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable, customer
deposits, taxes payable, unearned government grants, accrued
expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair
values because of the short maturity of these
instruments.
The Company's loans payable
approximate the fair value of such instruments based upon
management's best estimate of interest rates that would be
available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at
December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Transactions involving related
parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm's-length
basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market
dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with
related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party
transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that
prevail in arm's-length transactions unless such representations
can be substantiated.
It is not, however, practical to
determine the fair value of advances from stockholders due to their
related party nature.
Fair Value of Non-Financial
Assets or Liabilities Measured on a Recurring
Basis
The Company identifies
potentially excess and slow-moving inventories by evaluating turn
rates, inventory levels and other factors. Excess quantities are
identified through evaluation of inventory aging, review of
inventory turns and historical sales experiences. The Company
provides lower of cost or market reserves for such identified
excess and slow-moving inventories. The Company establishes a
reserve for inventory shrinkage, if any, based on the historical
results of physical inventory cycle counts.
Carrying Value,
Recoverability and Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets
The Company has adopted paragraph
360-10-35-17 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for its
long-lived assets. The Company's long-lived assets, which include
property, plant and equipment, land use rights, and purchased
formulae are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable.
The Company assesses the
recoverability of its long-lived assets by comparing the projected
undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related long-lived
asset or group of long-lived assets over their remaining estimated
useful lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment,
if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair
value of those assets. Fair value is generally determined using the
asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if
readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be
recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful
lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of
the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined
remaining estimated useful lives.
The Company considers the
following to be some examples of important indicators that may
trigger an impairment review: (i) significant
under-performance or losses of assets relative to expected
historical or projected future operating results;
(ii) significant changes in the manner or use of assets or in
the Company's overall strategy with respect to the manner or use of
the acquired assets or changes in the Company's overall business
strategy; (iii) significant negative industry or economic
trends; (iv) increased competitive pressures; (v) a
significant decline in the Company's stock price for a sustained
period of time; and (vi) regulatory changes. The Company
evaluates acquired assets for potential impairment indicators at
least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of such
events.
The key assumptions used in
management's estimates of projected cash flow deal largely with
forecasts of sales levels, gross margins, and operating costs of
the manufacturing facilities. These forecasts are typically based
on historical trends and take into account recent developments as
well as management's plans and intentions. Any difficulty in
manufacturing or sourcing raw materials on a cost effective basis
would significantly impact the projected future cash flows of the
Company's manufacturing facilities and potentially lead to an
impairment charge for long-lived assets. Other factors, such as
increased competition or a decrease in the desirability of the
Company's products, could lead to lower projected sales levels,
which would adversely impact cash flows. A significant change in
cash flows in the future could result in an impairment of long
lived assets.
The impairment charges, if any,
is included in operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated
statements of income and comprehensive income (loss).
Cash
Equivalents
The Company considers all highly
liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the
time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash, Unearned
Government Grants
The Company follows paragraph
210-10-45-4 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for
restricted cash, unearned government grants. Restricted cash,
unearned government grants represents grants received from the City
of Yichang government to be used in the Company's environmental
protection and improvement projects.
Banker's Acceptance Notes
Receivable
The Company accepts bankers'
acceptance notes in payment of accounts receivable with certain
customers. These notes are usually of a short term nature,
approximately three to nine months in length. They are non-interest
bearing, are due on the date of maturity; are paid by the
customers' bank or credit worthy issuer upon
presentation.
Accounts Receivable and
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are recorded
at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company follows paragraph 310-10-50-9 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification to estimate the allowance for doubtful
accounts. The Company performs on-going credit evaluations of its
customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and
the customer's current credit worthiness, as determined by the
review of their current credit information; and determines the
allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off
experience, customer specific facts and economic
conditions.
Outstanding account balances are
reviewed individually for collectability. The allowance for
doubtful accounts is the Company's best estimate of the amount of
probable credit losses in the Company's existing accounts
receivable. Bad debt expense is included in general and
administrative expenses, if any. Pursuant to paragraph 310-10-50-2
of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification account balances are
charged off against the allowance after all means of collection
have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered
remote. The Company has adopted paragraph 310-10-50-6 of the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification and determine when receivables
are past due or delinquent based on how recently payments have been
received.
There was no allowance for
doubtful accounts at December 31, 2011 or December 31,
2010.
The Company does not have any
off-balance-sheet credit exposure to its customers.
Advance on
Purchases
Advance on purchases primarily represents
amounts paid to vendors for future delivery of products ranging
from three (3) months to nine (9) months, all of which are fully or
partially refundable depending upon the terms and conditions of the
purchase agreements.
Inventories
The Company values inventories, consisting of
raw materials, packaging material and finished goods, at the lower
of cost or market.
Cost is determined on the first-in and first-out
("FIFO") method for raw materials and packaging materials and the
weighted average cost method for finished goods. Cost of finished
goods comprises direct labor, direct materials, direct production
cost and an allocated portion of production overhead. The Company
reduces inventories for the diminution of value, resulting from
product obsolescence, damage or other issues affecting
marketability, equal to the difference between the cost of the
inventory and its estimated market value. Factors
utilized in the determination of estimated market value include (i)
current sales data and historical return rates, (ii) estimates of
future demand, (iii) competitive pricing pressures, (iv) new
product introductions, (v) product expiration dates, and (vi)
component and packaging obsolescence.
The Company follows paragraph
330-10-30-3 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the
allocation of production costs and charges to inventories. The
Company allocates fixed production overhead to inventories based on
the normal capacity of the production facilities expected to be
achieved over a number of periods or seasons under normal
circumstances, taking into account the loss of capacity resulting
from planned maintenance. Judgment is required to determine when a
production level is abnormally low (that is, outside the range of
expected variation in production). Factors that might be
anticipated to cause an abnormally low production level include
significantly reduced demand, labor and materials shortages, and
unplanned facility or equipment down time. The actual level of
production may be used if it approximates normal capacity. In
periods of abnormally high production, the amount of fixed overhead
allocated to each unit of production is decreased so that
inventories are not measured above cost. The amount of fixed
overhead allocated to each unit of production is not increased as a
consequence of abnormally low production or idle plant and
unallocated overheads of underutilized or idle capacity of the
production facilities are recognized as period costs in the period
in which they are incurred rather than as a portion of the
inventory cost.
The Company evaluates its current
level of inventories considering historical sales and other factors
and, based on this evaluation, classify inventory markdowns in the
income statement as a component of cost of goods sold pursuant to
Paragraph 420-10-S99 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
to adjust inventories to net realizable value. These markdowns are
estimates, which could vary significantly from actual requirements
if future economic conditions, customer demand or competition
differ from expectations. Other significant estimates include the
allocation of variable and fixed production overheads. While
variable production overheads are allocated to each unit of
production on the basis of actual use of production facilities, the
allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion
is based on the normal capacity of the Company's production
facilities, and recognizes abnormal idle facility expenses as
current period charges. Certain costs, including categories of
indirect materials, indirect labor and other indirect manufacturing
costs which are included in the overhead pools are estimated. The
management of the Company determines its normal capacity based upon
the amount of operating hours of the manufacturing machinery and
equipment in a reporting period.
Property, Plant and
Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are
recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments
are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations
as incurred. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is
computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account
their respective estimated residual values) over the assets
estimated useful lives ranging from five (5) years to twenty (20)
years. Upon sale or retirement of property, plant and equipment,
the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statements of
income and comprehensive income (loss). Leasehold improvements, if
any, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the
lease or the estimated useful lives, whichever is shorter. Upon
becoming fully amortized, the related cost and accumulated
amortization are removed from the accounts.
Construction in progress
represents direct costs of construction or the acquisition cost of
long-lived assets. Under U.S. GAAP, all costs
associated with construction of long-lived assets should be
reflected as long-term as part of construction-in-progress.
Capitalization of these costs ceases and the construction in
progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when
substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare the
long-lived assets for their intended use are completed. No
depreciation is provided until the construction of the long-lived
assets is complete and ready for their intended use.
Planned Major Maintenance
Activities
The Company follows the guidance
of paragraph 360-10-25-5 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification ("Paragraph 360-10-25-5"), which prohibits the use of
the accrue-in-advance method of accounting for planned major
maintenance activities. Paragraph 360-10-25-5 also requires
disclosures regarding the method of accounting for planned major
maintenance activities and the effects of implementing the
Paragraph 360-10-25-5. The guidance in Paragraph 360-10-25-5
affects the Company with regard to its manufacturing facility
requiring periodic major maintenance to meet the Certification of
Good Manufacturing Practices ("GMP") requirement every five (5)
years in connection with its pharmaceutical products manufacturing
license as mandated by China State Food and Drug Administration
("SFDA"). As a result, the Company has retroactively applied the
required change in accounting, electing the deferral method of
accounting for planned major maintenance activities. The deferral
method requires the capitalization of planned major maintenance
costs at the point they occur and the depreciation and amortization
of these costs over their estimated useful lives or the period
until future maintenance activities of five (5) years are repeated,
whichever is shorter.
Land Use
Rights
Land use rights represent the
cost to obtain the rights to use certain parcels of land in the
City of Yichang, Hubei Province, PRC. Land use rights are carried
at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of
the rights of fifty (50) years. Upon becoming fully amortized, the
related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from the
accounts.
Purchased
Formulae
The Company has adopted paragraph
350-30-25-3 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for
purchased formulae. Under the requirements, the Company amortizes
the costs of purchased formulae over their
estimated useful lives of ten
(10) years. Upon becoming fully amortized, the related cost and
accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.
Customer
Deposits
Customer deposits primarily
represent amounts received from customers for future delivery of
products, all of which were fully or partially refundable depending
upon the terms and conditions of the sales agreements.
Related
Parties
The Company follows subtopic
850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the
identification of related parties and disclosure of related party
transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the
related parties include a. affiliates of the Company;
b. entities for which investments in their equity securities
would be required, absent the election of the fair value option
under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825-10-15, to be
accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity;
c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and
profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship
of management; d. principal owners of the Company;
e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which
the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly
influence the management or operating policies of the other to an
extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from
fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. other
parties that can significantly influence the management or
operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an
ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can
significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of
the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its
own separate interests.
The financial statements shall
include disclosures of material related party transactions, other
than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other
similar items in the ordinary course of business. However,
disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation
of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in
those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature
of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the
transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal
amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income
statements are presented, and such other information deemed
necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on
the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of
transactions for each of the periods for which income statements
are presented and the effects of any change in the method of
establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and
d. aamounts due from or to related parties as of the date of
each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the
terms and manner of settlement.
Commitment and
Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic
450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report
accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of
the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which
may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved
when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company
assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment
inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss
contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against
the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such
proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any
legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived
merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought
therein.
If the assessment of a
contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has
been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated,
then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company's
consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that
a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is
reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then
the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the
range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be
disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered
remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees,
in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does
not believe, based upon information available at this time, that
these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not
materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial
position, and results of operations or cash flows.
Revenue
Recognition
The Company follows paragraph
605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for
revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is
realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue
realized or realizable and earned when all of the following
criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
(ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been
rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or
determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably
assured.
The Company derives the majority
of its revenue from sales contracts with customers with revenues
being generated upon the shipment of goods. Persuasive evidence of
an arrangement is demonstrated via invoice, product delivery is
evidenced by warehouse shipping log as well as a signed bill of
lading from trucking or rail company and title transfers when the
goods arrive at their destination, based on free on board ("FOB")
destination; the sales price to the customer is fixed upon
acceptance of the purchase order and there is no separate sales
rebate, discount, or volume incentive. When the Company recognizes
revenue, no provisions are made for returns because, historically,
there have been very few sales returns and adjustments that have
impacted the ultimate collection of revenues.
Net sales of products represent
the invoiced value of goods, net of value added taxes ("VAT"). The
Company is subject to VAT which is levied on all of the Company's
products at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Sales
or Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced
value of sales and Purchase or Input VAT is borne by the Company in
addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not
refunded for export sales, if any.
Shipping and Handling
Costs
The Company accounts for shipping
and handling fees in accordance with paragraphs 605-45-45-19
through 605-45-45-23 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
While amounts charged to customers for shipping products are
included in revenues, the related costs are classified in cost of
goods sold as incurred.
Advertising
Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as
incurred.
Research and
Development
The Company follows paragraph
730-10-25-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (formerly
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 2 "Accounting
for Research and Development Costs") and paragraph 730-20-25-11
of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (formerly Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 68 "Research and
Development Arrangements") for research and development costs.
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.
Research and development costs consist primarily of remuneration
for research and development staff, depreciation and maintenance
expenses of research and development equipment, material and
testing costs for research and development as well as research and
development arrangements with unrelated third party research and
development institutions. The research and development arrangements
usually involve specific research and development projects. Often
times, the Company makes non-refundable advances upon signing of
these research and development arrangements. The Company adopted
paragraph 730-20-25-13 and 730-20-35-1 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force Issue
No. 07-3 "Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for
Goods or Services to be Used in Future Research and Development
Activities") for those non-refundable advances. Non-refundable
advance payments for goods or services that will be used or
rendered for future research and development activities are
deferred and capitalized. Such amounts are recognized as an expense
as the related goods are delivered or the related services are
performed. The management continues to evaluate whether the Company
expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered. If the
management does not expect the goods to be delivered or services to
be rendered, the capitalized advance payment are charged to
expense.
Government
Grants
Receipts of government grants (i)
to construct environmental protection and improvement projects and
(ii) to encourage research and development and (iii) to subsidize
energy conservation activities which are non-refundable are
credited to unearned government grants upon receipt. The grants are
used for purchases of assets, to
subsidize the research and
development and energy conservation expenses incurred, for
compensation expenses already incurred or for good performance of
the Company.
Grants applicable to the
construction of the environmental protection and improvement
projects are recorded as a credit to the total cost of pollution
prevention projects upon completion of the pollution prevention
projects. For research and development expenses, the Company
matches and offsets the government grants with the expenses of the
research and development activities as specified in the grant
approval document in the corresponding period when such expenses
are incurred and records related government grants as credit to
research and development and pollution prevention project cost
accordingly. For government grants received as compensation for
expenses already incurred are recognized as income in the period
they become recognizable.
Foreign Currency
Transactions
The Company applies the
guidelines as set out in Section 830-20-35 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification ("Section 830-20-35") for foreign currency
transactions. Pursuant to Section 830-20-35 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification, foreign currency transactions are
transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollar, the
Company's reporting currency or Chinese Yuan or Renminbi, the
Company's functional currency. Foreign currency transactions may
produce receivables or payables that are fixed in terms of the
amount of foreign currency that will be received or paid. A change
in exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency
in which a transaction is denominated increases or decreases the
expected amount of functional currency cash flows upon settlement
of the transaction. That increase or decrease in expected
functional currency cash flows is a foreign currency transaction
gain or loss that generally shall be included in determining net
income for the period in which the exchange rate changes. Likewise,
a transaction gain or loss (measured from the transaction date or
the most recent intervening balance sheet date, whichever is later)
realized upon settlement of a foreign currency transaction
generally shall be included in determining net income for the
period in which the transaction is settled. The exceptions to this
requirement for inclusion in net income of transaction gains and
losses pertain to certain intercompany transactions and to
transactions that are designated as, and effective as, economic
hedges of net investments and foreign currency commitments.
Pursuant to Section 830-20-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification, the following shall apply to all foreign currency
transactions of an enterprise and its investees: (a) at the date
the transaction is recognized, each asset, liability, revenue,
expense, gain, or loss arising from the transaction shall be
measured and recorded in the functional currency of the recording
entity by use of the exchange rate in effect at that date as
defined in section 830-10-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification; and (b) at each balance sheet date, recorded balances
that are denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency or reporting currency of the recording entity shall be
adjusted to reflect the current exchange rate.
Net gains and losses resulting
from foreign exchange transactions, if any, are included in the
Company's statements of income and comprehensive income
(loss).
Income Tax
Provision
The Company accounts for income
taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that
have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.
Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on
the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of
assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the
year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent
management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income
(loss) in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted section
740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Section
740-10-25"). Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of
whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax
return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under
Section 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from
an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that
the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing
authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax
benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a
position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a
greater than fifty (50) percent likelihood of being realized upon
ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also
provides guidance on
de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income
taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased
disclosures.
The estimated future tax effects
of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and
liabilities are reported in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The
Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax
assets recorded on its consolidated balance sheets and provides
valuation allowances as management deems necessary.
Management makes judgments as to
the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an
audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In
addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions
and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. In management's
opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for
all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from
estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be
necessary.
Uncertain Tax
Positions
The Company did not take any
uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to the unrecognized
tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of Section
740-10-25 for the year ended December 31, 2011 or
2010.
Foreign Currency
Translation
The Company follows Section
830-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Section
830-10-45") for foreign currency translation to translate the
financial statements of the foreign subsidiary from the functional
currency, generally the local currency, into U.S. Dollars. Section
830-10-45 sets out the guidance relating to how a reporting entity
determines the functional currency of a foreign entity (including
of a foreign entity in a highly inflationary economy), re-measures
the books of record (if necessary), and characterizes transaction
gains and losses. Pursuant to Section 830-10-45, the assets,
liabilities, and operations of a foreign entity shall be measured
using the functional currency of that entity. An entity's
functional currency is the currency of the primary economic
environment in which the entity operates; normally, that is the
currency of the environment, or local currency, in which an entity
primarily generates and expends cash.
The functional currency of each
foreign subsidiary is determined based on management's judgment and
involves consideration of all relevant economic facts and
circumstances affecting the subsidiary. Generally, the currency in
which the subsidiary transacts a majority of its transactions,
including billings, financing, payroll and other expenditures,
would be considered the functional currency, but any dependency
upon the parent and the nature of the subsidiary's operations must
also be considered. If a subsidiary's functional currency is deemed
to be the local currency, then any gain or loss associated with the
translation of that subsidiary's financial statements is included
in accumulated other comprehensive income. However, if the
functional currency is deemed to be the U.S. Dollar, then any
gain or loss associated with the re-measurement of these financial
statements from the local currency to the functional currency would
be included in the consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income (loss). If the Company disposes of foreign
subsidiaries, then any cumulative translation gains or losses would
be recorded into the consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income (loss). If the Company determines that there
has been a change in the functional currency of a subsidiary to the
U.S. Dollar, any translation gains or losses arising after the
date of change would be included within the statement of income and
comprehensive income (loss).
Based on an assessment of the
factors discussed above, the management of the Company determined
the relevant subsidiary's local currency to be the functional
currency for its foreign subsidiary.
The financial records of the
Company are maintained in their local currency, the Renminbi
("RMB"), which is the functional currency. Assets and liabilities
are translated from the local currency into the reporting currency,
U.S. dollars, at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet
date. Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average
exchange rates for the period to approximate translation at the
exchange rates prevailing at the dates those elements are
recognized in the financial statements. Foreign currency
translation gain (loss) resulting from the process of translating
the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are
included in determining accumulated other comprehensive income in
the statement of stockholders' equity.
RMB is not a fully convertible
currency. All foreign exchange transactions involving RMB must take
place either through the People's Bank of China (the "PBOC") or
other institutions authorized to buy and sell
foreign exchange. The exchange
rate adopted for the foreign exchange transactions are the rates of
exchange quoted by the PBOC. Commencing July 21, 2005, China
adopted a managed floating exchange rate regime based on market
demand and supply with reference to a basket of currencies. The
exchange rate of the US dollar against the RMB was adjusted from
approximately RMB 8.28 per U.S. dollar to approximately RMB
8.11 per U.S. dollar on July 21, 2005. Since then, the
PBOC administers and regulates the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar
against the RMB taking into account demand and supply of RMB, as
well as domestic and foreign economic and financial
conditions.
Unless otherwise noted, the rate
presented below per U.S. $1.00 was the midpoint of the interbank
rate as quoted by OANDA Corporation (www.oanda.com) contained in
its financial statements. Management believes that the difference
between RMB vs. U.S. dollar exchange rate quoted by the PBOC and
RMB vs. U.S. dollar exchange rate reported by OANDA Corporation
were immaterial. Translations do not imply that the RMB amounts
actually represent, or have been or could be converted into,
equivalent amounts in U.S. dollars. Translation of amounts from RMB
into U.S. dollars has been made at the following exchange rates for
the respective periods:

Comprehensive Income
(Loss)
The Company has applied section 220-10-45 of the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Section 220-10-45") to
present comprehensive income (loss). Section 220-10-45 establishes
rules for the reporting of comprehensive income (loss) and its
components. Comprehensive income (loss), for the Company, consists
of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments and is
presented in the Company's consolidated statements of income and
comprehensive income (loss) and stockholders' equity.
Net Income (Loss) per Common
Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed
pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed
by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net
income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and
potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period to
reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares
issuable through contingent share arrangements, stock options and
warrants.
There were no potentially dilutive common shares
outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2011 or 2010.
Cash Flows Reporting
The Company adopted paragraph 230-10-45-24 of
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for cash flows
reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to
whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing
activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the
indirect or reconciliation method ("Indirect method") as defined by
paragraph 230-10-45-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification to report net cash flow from operating activities by
adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from
operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals
of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of
expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all
items that are included in net income that do not affect operating
cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the reporting
currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the
current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect
of exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is
reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and
ending balances of cash and cash equivalents and separately
provides information about investing and financing activities not
resulting in cash receipts or payments in the period pursuant to
paragraph 830-230-45-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification.
Subsequent Events
The Company follows the guidance in Section
855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the
disclosure of subsequent events. The Company will evaluate
subsequent events through the date when the financial
statements are issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer
considers its financial statements issued when they are widely
distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.
Recently Issued Accounting
Pronouncements
FASB Accounting Standards Update No.
2011-05
In June 2011, the FASB issued the FASB
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 "Comprehensive Income"
("ASU 2011-05"), which was the result of a joint
project with the IASB and amends the guidance in ASC 220,
Comprehensive Income, by eliminating the option to present
components of other comprehensive income (OCI) in the statement of
stockholders' equity. Instead, the new guidance now gives entities
the option to present all non-owner changes in stockholders' equity
either as a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or
as two separate but consecutive statements. Regardless of whether
an entity chooses to present comprehensive income in a single
continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements,
the amendments require entities to present all reclassification
adjustments from OCI to net income on the face of the statement of
comprehensive income.
The amendments in this Update
should be applied retrospectively and are effective for public
entity for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years,
beginning after December 15, 2011.
FASB Accounting Standards
Update No. 2011-08
In September 2011, the FASB
issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08
"Intangibles--Goodwill and Other: Testing Goodwill for Impairment" ("ASU 2011-08").
This Update is to simplify how public and nonpublic
entities test goodwill for impairment. The amendments permit an
entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it
is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is
less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it
is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test
described in Topic 350. Under the amendments in this Update, an
entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting
unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not
that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.
The guidance is effective for
interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15,
2011. Early adoption is permitted.
FASB Accounting Standards
Update No. 2011-10
In December 2011, the FASB issued
the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-10 "Property,
Plant and Equipment: Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate-a
Scope Clarification" ("ASU 2011-09"). This Update is to resolve
the diversity in practice as to how financial statements have been
reflecting circumstances when parent company reporting entities
cease to have controlling financial interests in subsidiaries that
are in substance real estate, where the situation arises as a
result of default on nonrecourse debt of the
subsidiaries.
The amended guidance is effective
for annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2012
for public entities. Early adoption is
permitted.
FASB Accounting Standards
Update No. 2011-11
In December 2011, the FASB issued
the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 "Balance Sheet:
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU
2011-11"). This Update requires an entity
to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements
to enable users of its financial statements to understand the
effect of those arrangements on its financial position.
The objective of this disclosure is to facilitate
comparison between those entities that prepare their financial
statements on the basis of U.S. GAAP and those entities that
prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS.
The amended guidance is effective
for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013,
and interim periods within those annual periods.
FASB Accounting Standards
Update No. 2011-12
In December 2011, the FASB issued
the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-12 "Comprehensive
Income: Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the
Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05"
("ASU 2011-12"). This Update is a deferral of the effective
date pertaining to reclassification adjustments out of accumulated
other comprehensive income in ASU 2011-05. FASB is to going to
reassess the costs and benefits of those provisions in ASU 2011-05
related to reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive
income. Due to the time required to properly make such a
reassessment and to evaluate alternative presentation formats, the
FASB decided that it is necessary to reinstate the requirements for
the presentation of reclassifications out of accumulated other
comprehensive income that were in place before the issuance of
Update 2011-05.
All other requirements in Update
2011-05 are not affected by this Update, including the requirement
to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous
financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial
statements. Public entities should apply these requirements for
fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning
after December 15, 2011.
