NOTES
TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF OCTOBER 31,
2008
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
(A) Basis of
Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of
America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include
all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial
position and results of operations.
It is
management's opinion, however that all material adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair
financial statements presentation. The results for the interim period
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year.
Activities
during the development stage include developing the business plan and raising
capital.
(B) Use of
Estimates
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and
expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
(C) Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At October
31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had no cash equivalents.
(D) Loss Per
Share
Basic and
diluted net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average
common shares outstanding as defined by Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
“Earnings Per Share.” As of October 31, 2008 there were no common
share equivalents outstanding.

(A

NOTES
TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF OCTOBER 31,
2008
(UNAUDITED)
(E) Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, “Accounting
for Income Taxes” (“SFAS 109”). Under SFAS 109, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. 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. Under
SFAS 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.
(F) Business
Segments
The
Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not
presented.
(G) Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The
objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value
measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework
for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other
accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and
does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157
are effective for fair value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results
of operations.
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
159, “The Fair Value Option
for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115”. This statement permits entities to choose
to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.
Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the
fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with
available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the
beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.
Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on
or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the
provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

NOTES
TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF OCTOBER 31,
2008
(UNAUDITED)
In
December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
160, “Noncontrolling Interests
in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No.
51”. This statement improves the relevance, comparability, and
transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in
its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting
standards that require; the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties
other than the parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to
the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and
presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a
parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial
interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary is
deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former
subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient
disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the
parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160
affects those entities that have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one
or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160
is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about
DerivativeInstruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 133” (SFAS 161). This
statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by
requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging
activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of
SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS
133) as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and nonderivative
instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities
with instruments subject to SFAS 161 must provide more robust qualitative disclosures and
expanded quantitative disclosures. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued
for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008,
with early application permitted. We are currently evaluating the disclosure
implications of this statement.
Accounting
Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and
provides entities with a framework for selecting the principles used in
preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP.
The current GAAP hierarchy has been criticized because it is directed to the
auditor rather than the entity, it is complex, and it ranks FASB Statements of
Financial Accounting Concepts, which are subject to the same level of due
process as FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, below industry
practices that are widely recognized as generally accepted but that are not
subject to due process. The Board believes the GAAP hierarchy should be directed
to entities because it is the entity (not its auditors) that is responsible for
selecting accounting principles for financial statements that are presented in
conformity with GAAP. The adoption of FASB 162 is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company’s financial position.

AS OF OCTOBER 31,
2008
(UNAUDITED)
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee
Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60.” Diversity
exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by
insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by
Insurance Enterprises. This results in inconsistencies in the recognition and
measurement of claim liabilities. This Statement requires that an insurance
enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured
event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an
insured financial obligation. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about
financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure
requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided
to users of financial statements. The adoption of FASB 163 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.

3 RELATED PARTY
TRANSACTIONS
During
the period ended October 31, 2007 the Company received $3,100 from a principal
stockholder. Pursuant to the terms of the loan, the loan bears interest at 8%,
is unsecured and matures on July 31, 2008. At October 31, 2007, the
Company had recorded $60 of related accrued interest payable. The
Company repaid $3,100 of a stockholder loan and $60 of accrued interest as of
October 31, 2007.
As of
October 31, 2008 the shareholder of the Company contributed $8,280 of services
on behalf of the Company (See Note 2 (B)).
NOTE
4 GOING
CONCERN
As
reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is in the
development stage with no operations and has a net loss since inception of
$87,357 and used cash in operations of $79,045 for the period from July 2, 2007
(inception) to October 31, 2008. This raises substantial doubt about
its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the
Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to
raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if
the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Management
believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and
implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to
continue as a going concern.
NOTE
5 SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
On
November 18, 2008, the Company received $1,000 from a principal stockholder.
Pursuant to the terms of the loan, the loan is non-interest bearing is unsecured
and is due on demand.

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Plan
of Operation
We have
begun operations. We raised $80,000 through our private
placement. We have begun to implement our plan to provide
opportunities for golfers to play private courses normally closed to them
because of membership requirements. Initially we hope to focus on
obtaining agreements with private golf clubs in two specific regions of the
country. Eventually, we hope to expand across the country. We
expect all business functions will be coordinated and managed by our founder,
John Fahlberg. He will be the sole employee through the early stages
of the company and will conduct all administrative, marketing, sales and
operations functions. He plans to devote about 25% of his time
to us. Our first goal is to enroll 20 private golf clubs. The
initial task was to contact 100 private golf clubs in the northeast and
southeast sections of the country to determine interest in joining our
alliance. The list of 100 private clubs was developed by purchasing
and researching the private club data base developed by the National Golf
Foundation. This has been completed and cost us $298 to acquire the lists from
the National Golf Foundation. Now that the initial list has been
acquired, we have emailed General Managers at 20 private
clubs.. Mr. Fahlberg plans to continue contacting clubs and
following up with them to gage their interest in joining The Golf Alliance
Corporation. This process will continue into the first quarter of
2009.
By the
end of the second quarter of 2009, marketing materials regarding us will be
developed to inform the private clubs about the merits of joining our
alliance. We expect this to cost $1,000 to $3,000 and take 30 to 60
days. We have developed a website, www.golfalliancecorporation.com. This
cost $1,000 to develop.
We hope
to develop a detailed information package explaining how private clubs would
operate within our system. This should take 30 to 60 days. We
hope to mail marketing materials to the selected clubs. This should
cost less than $200 and take less than 30 days. Follow up phone calls and
emails will be sent to assess interest of the 100 selected clubs once they have
received the marketing materials. This should take 60 to 90
days. We expect to send information packages to those clubs that have
expressed interest in joining our alliance. This should cost less
than $200 and will take less than 30 days.
Follow up
phone calls and emails will be sent to the clubs once they have received the
information packages to determine if they have decided to join the
alliance. This should take 30 to 60 days. An enrollment package will
be sent to those clubs that have indicated they would join. This will
cost less than $200 and take less than 30 days. Follow ups will continue
to those clubs to get the enrollment packages completed and
returned.
The goal
is to get at least 20 private clubs enrolled during this process. The
contacting and follow up process will continue until that goal has been reached
or determined that it is not feasible. If getting 20 private clubs to join
proves to not be feasible we must either cease operations or attempt to raise
more money to develop and execute a more feasible business
strategy.
Once the
initial 20+ clubs have enrolled, a marketing program will be developed to
attract 20 more clubs into the alliance. This program will include
sending information to private clubs informing them which clubs have joined,
providing names, phone numbers and email addresses of Club Presidents and
General Managers of those clubs that have joined for their follow up. We will
also request that Club Presidents and General Managers of clubs that have joined
the alliance, contact other private clubs in their areas to promote the
concept. This process cost less than $500 and will take 90 to 120
days.
Once 40+
clubs have joined our alliance a marketing program will be developed to attract
golfers to the alliance. This will include purchasing a mailing list
from Golf Digest, Golf Magazine or Golf Travel & leisure, direct mailing
postcards to golfers, following up on responses to the mailing and enrolling
golfers in the alliance. This will require hiring some part-time
telesales people to follow up on respondents and to contact others on the
mailing list. The initial goal will be to attract 1000 golfers to the
alliance. This process should take 6 to 9 months and cost $30,000
to $50,000.

Limited
Operating History
We have
generated less than one full year of financial information and have not
previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business through an
increased investment in our product line and/or marketing efforts. We cannot
guarantee that the expansion efforts described in this quarterly report will be
successful. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise,
including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our new products
and/or sales methods.
If
financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue
expanding our operations. Equity financing will result in a dilution to existing
shareholders.
Results
of Operations
For the
period from inception through October 31, 2008, we had no revenue. Expenses for
the period totaled $87,297 resulting in a loss from operations of $87,357
Expenses of $87,297 for the period consisted of $24,489 general and
administrative expenses and $62,808 for professional fees.
Capital
Resources and Liquidity
As of
October 31, 2008 we had $1,005 in cash. We believe we cannot satisfy our cash
requirements for the next twelve months with our current cash. However,
completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate revenue. We
cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In the absence
of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan of
operations. Without adequate revenues within the next twelve months,
we will not be able to continue with our present activities, but we may require
financing to potentially achieve our profit, revenue, and growth
goals.
We
anticipate that our operational, and general and administrative expenses for the
next 12 months will total approximately $50,000. We do not anticipate the
purchase or sale of any significant equipment. We also do not expect any
significant additions to the number of employees. The foregoing represents our
best estimate of our cash needs based on current planning and business
conditions. The exact allocation, purposes and timing of any monies raised in
subsequent private financings may vary significantly depending upon the exact
amount of funds raised and our progress with the execution of our business
plan.
In the
event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional
funds may be required, and we may not be able to proceed with our business plan
for the development and marketing of our core services. Should this occur, we
would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our
business. We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of
operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore,
our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a
going concern.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
financial statements and related public financial information are based on the
application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and
subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the
assets, liabilities, revenues and expense amounts reported. These estimates can
also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures
including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We
believe our use if estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to
GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from
these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to
monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial
statements.
-12-
Our
significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of our financial
statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact its financial
condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as
critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the
most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to
use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from
those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and
circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or
estimate methodologies would cause effect on our results of operations,
financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this
report.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The
objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value
measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework
for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other
accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and
does not require any new fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157
are effective for fair value measurements made in fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a
material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results
of operations.
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
159, “The Fair Value Option
for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115”. This statement permits entities to choose
to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.
Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the
fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with
available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the
beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.
Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on
or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the
provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
In
December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
160, “Noncontrolling Interests
in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No.
51”. This statement improves the relevance, comparability, and
transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in
its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting
standards that require; the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties
other than the parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to
the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and
presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a
parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial
interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary is
deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former
subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient
disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the
parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160
affects those entities that have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one
or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160
is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). This statement is intended to improve
transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an
entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the
entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161
applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS 133, “Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS 133) as well as related
hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and nonderivative instruments that are
designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities with instruments subject
to SFAS 161 must provide more robust qualitative disclosures and expanded
quantitative disclosures. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for financial
statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. We are currently
evaluating the disclosure implications of this statement.

Item
4T. Controls and Procedures
Pursuant
to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”),
the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s
management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief
Accounting Officer (“CAO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting
officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the
end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the
Company’s CEO and CAO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange
Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated
and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and
CAO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
Management’s Report on
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Internal
control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of consolidated financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. There has been no change in
the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended
October 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting.
The
Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CAO, does not expect that
the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal
controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how
well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design
of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints,
and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because
of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of the
controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and
instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
Management
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the
company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of October
31, 2008.
