NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
As of September 30, 2019, the Company had $326,275 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has net loss of $2,955,111 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This factor raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by operating activities, as well as support from related parties. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if the Company will be able to maintain profitability and continue growth for the foreseeable future. If management is not able to increase revenue and/or manage operating expenses in line with revenue forecasts, the company may not be able to maintain profitability.
The Company will focus on improving operation efficiency and cost reduction, developing core cash-generating business and enhancing marketing function. Actions include developing more customers, as well as create synergy of the Company’s resources.
The Company believes that available cash and cash equivalents, the cash provided by operating activities, together with actions as developing more customers and create synergy of the Company’s resources, should enable the Company to meet presently anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements are issued and the Company has prepared the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. If the Company encounters unforeseen circumstances that place constraints on its capital resources, management will be required to take various measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, obtaining financial support from related parties and controlling overhead expenses. Management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will raise additional capital if needed.
NOTE 3. SUMMARIES OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. | Basis of preparation |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been consistently applied.
6
b. | Principles of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, and its subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
c. | Use of estimates |
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include valuation of inventory, and recoverability of carrying amount and the estimated useful lives of long-lived assets.
d. | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, cash in bank with no restrictions, as well as highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have remaining maturities of three months or less when initially purchased.
e. | Accounts receivable |
Accounts receivables are stated at the amount the Company expect to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on a combination of historical experience and information on customer accounts. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company have historically experienced little, if any, uncollectible receivables to date.
f. | Inventory |
Shenzhen Shengshi carries no inventories as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Sichuan Shengshi values its inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Inventories consist of mainly raw materials that are to be used in the maintenance of elevators.
Where there is evidence that the utility of inventories, in their disposal in the ordinary course of business, will be less than cost, whether due to physical deterioration, obsolescence, changes in price levels, or other causes, the inventories are written down to net realizable value. Any idle facility costs or excessive spoilage are recorded as current period charges.
Sichuan Shengshi had no impairment charges for the Nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.
g. | Research and development expenditures |
Research and development expenditures include salaries, wages and other costs of personnel engaged in research and development, costs of services performed by others for research and development on our behalf are expensed when incurred. The Company is currently in the early stage of elevator product development and incurs significant amount of research and development costs.
7
h. | Property, plant and equipment, net |
Shenzhen Shengshi’s property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation with no residual value.
Sichuan Shengshi’s property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation with 5% residual value. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets:
Machinery and equipment | 3-11 years | |
Structures | 20 years | |
Furniture and office equipment | 3-10 years | |
Motor vehicles | 4-8 years |
When office equipment and electronic devices are retired or otherwise disposed of, resulting gain or loss is included in net income or loss in the year of disposition for the difference between the net book value and proceeds received thereon. Maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the expected useful lives of the assets are charged to expenses as incurred.
Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the remaining lease term. Depreciation for equipment commences once it is placed in service and depreciation for buildings and amortization of leasehold improvements commences once they are ready for our intended use.
i. | Revenue recognition |
The Company adopted ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, applying the modified retrospective method.
In accordance with ASC Topic 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how much revenue is recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company’s contract with customers do not include significant financing component and any variable consideration.
The Company does not believe that significant management judgements are involved in revenue recognition, but the amount and timing of the Company’s revenues could be different for any period if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Generally, the Company recognizes revenue under ASC Topic 606 for its performance obligation.
The sales of elevators are derived principally from providing elevators to customers, the Company recognizes revenue upon the delivery of products to the customers, which is when the goods delivered to the users’ designated address and it is probable that the Company will collect the payments.
j. | Advertising, Sales and Marketing Costs |
Advertising, sales and marketing costs consist primarily of costs for the promotion of corporate image and product marketing. The Company expensed all marketing and advertising costs as incurred.
k. | Income taxes |
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, the provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable (or received or receivable) for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid, and result from differences between the financial and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when enacted.
8
Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. In evaluating the need for a valuation allowance, management considers all potential sources of taxable income, including income available in carryback periods, future reversals of taxable temporary differences, projections of taxable income, and income from tax planning strategies, as well as all available positive and negative evidence. Positive evidence includes factors such as a history of profitable operations, projections of future profitability within the carryforward period, including from tax planning strategies, and the Company’s experience with similar operations. Existing favorable contracts and the ability to sell products into established markets are additional positive evidence. Negative evidence includes items such as cumulative losses, projections of future losses, or carryforward periods that are not long enough to allow for the utilization of a deferred tax asset based on existing projections of income. Deferred tax assets for which no valuation allowance is recorded may not be realized upon changes in facts and circumstances, resulting in a future charge to establish a valuation allowance.
Tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return are recorded when such benefits meet a more likely than not threshold. Otherwise, these tax benefits are recorded when a tax position has been effectively settled, which means that the statute of limitation has expired or the appropriate taxing authority has completed their examination even though the statute of limitations remains open. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized as part of the provision for income taxes and are accrued beginning in the period that such interest and penalties would be applicable under relevant tax law until such time that the related tax benefits are recognized.
l. | Value added taxes (“VAT”) |
Before May 1, 2018, the Company was subject to VAT at the rate of 17% on sales of its products. The PRC government has announced VAT reduction and tax rate of product sales has been adjusted to 16% from 17%, which was effected in May 2018. Therefore, on and after May 1, 2018, sales for certain products that applied 17% tax rate before May 1, 2018 applied 16% tax rate after May 1, 2018, the Company is subject to VAT at the rate of 16% on sales of its products. In 2019, the PRC government has announced another round of VAT reduction, which was effected from April 2019. Therefore, on and after April 1, 2019, the Company is subject to VAT at the rate of 13% on sales of its products. The Company is also subject to surcharges, which includes urban maintenance and construction taxes and additional education fees on VAT payable in accordance with PRC law. The surcharges are at the rate of 12% of the VAT payable, depending on which tax jurisdiction the Company’s PRC operating entities operate in.

o. | Fair Value Measurements |
The Company’s financial instruments are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
● | Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | |
● | Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. | |
● | Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value. |
There were no transfers between level 1, level 2 or level 3 measurements for the nine month ended September 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018.
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, none of the Company’s nonfinancial assets or liabilities was measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, salary payable and accounts payable, are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and if applicable, their stated interest rate approximates current rates available.
p. | Recently issued accounting standards |
In February 25, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). It requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Public business entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years (i.e., January 1, 2019, for a calendar year entity). Early application is permitted for all public business entities and all nonpublic business entities upon issuance. The Company (as an EGC) that is taking advantage of the extended transition period offered to private entities would apply this for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2018, the FSAB issued ASU 2018-10 ASC Topic 842: “Codification Improvements to Leases” The amendments are to address stakeholders’ questions about how to apply certain aspects of the new guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases. The clarifications address the rate implicit in the lease, impairment of the net investment in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments. The amendments in ASC Topic 842 are effective for EGC for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.
10
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842). This update provides entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under this method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, the prior comparative period’s financials will remain the same as those previously presented. Entities that elect this optional transition method must provide the disclosures that were previously required. The Company is evaluating the effect this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01: “Leases (Topic 842)-Codification Improvements”. The amendments in this ASU (1) reinstate the exception in Topic 842 for lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers, specifically, those lessors will use their cost, reflecting any volume or trade discounts that may apply, as the fair value of the underlying asset. However, if significant time lapses between the acquisition of the underlying asset and lease commencement, those lessors will be required to apply the definition of fair value (exit price) in Topic 820; (2) address the concerns of lessors within the scope of Topic 942 about where “principal payments received under leases” should be presented, specifically, lessors that are depository and lending institutions within the scope of Topic 942 will present all “principal payments received under leases” within investing activities; and (3) clarify the Board’s original intent by explicitly providing an exception to the paragraph 250-10-50-3 interim disclosure requirements in the Topic 842 transition disclosure requirements. The effective date of the amendments in this ASU is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years for any of the following: 1. A public business entity; 2. A not-for-profit entity that has issued, or is a conduit bond obligor for, securities that are traded, listed, or quoted on an exchange or an over-the-counter market; and 3. An employee benefit plan that files financial statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). For all other entities, the effective date is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early application is permitted. An entity should early apply the amendments as of the date that it first applied Topic 842, using the same transition methodology in accordance with paragraph 842-10-65-1(c). The Company is evaluating the effect this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
No other recently issued accounting standards are expected to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Realization of the net deferred tax assets is dependent on factors including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and adequate future taxable income, exclusive of reversing deductible temporary differences and tax loss or credit carry forwards. The Company evaluates the potential realization of deferred tax assets on an entity-by-entity basis. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, valuation allowances were provided against deferred tax assets in entities where it was determined it was more likely than not that the benefits of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company had deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The management determines it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets could not be recognized, so full allowances were provided as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, since due to uncertainties surrounding future utilization, the Company estimates there will not be sufficient future earnings to utilize its deferred tax assets.
