Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Accounting Principles generally accepted in
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China United and its subsidiaries. The results of operations of AHFL and subsidiaries are included since
Accounts receivable
The Company reviews its accounts receivable on a regular basis to determine if a bad debt allowance is necessary. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes the age of receivable outstanding, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the necessity of making such allowance. No allowance was deemed necessary as of
Revenue recognition
The Company's revenue is from insurance agency and brokerage services. The Company, through its subsidiaries, sells insurance products to customers, and obtains commissions from the respective insurance companies according to the terms of each insurance company service agreement. The Company recognizes revenue when the following have occurred: persuasive evidence of an agreement between the insurance company and insured exists, services were provided, the fee for such services is fixed or determinable and collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. Insurance agency services are considered complete, and revenue is recognized, when an insurance policy becomes effective. The customers are entitled to a 10-day cancellation period from the date of the issuance of the policies, in which the customers can cancel the contract without any fees. The Company is notified of such cancellations by the insurance carriers.
The Company pays commissions to its sub-agents when an insurance product is sold by the sub-agent. The Company recognizes commission revenue on a gross basis. The commissions paid by the Company to its sub-agents are recorded as costs of revenue.
25 Income taxes
The Company utilizes ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes", which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
When tax returns are filed, it is likely some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss). As of
The Company was not subjected to income tax examinations by taxing authorities during the current and past fiscal years. During the nine months ended
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC Topic 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment" the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an asset is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value ("FV"). Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or FV, less costs of disposal.
Goodwill
Goodwill arose from the acquisition of Sichuan Kangzhuang. Goodwill is the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the FV of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, using the prescribed two-step process under US GAAP. The first step screens for potential impairment of goodwill to determine if the FV of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, while the second step measures the amount of goodwill impairment, if any, by comparing the implied FV of goodwill to its carrying value.
