NOTE A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting policies of BlueStar Financial Group, Inc. (A Development Stage Enterprise) (the Company) is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies presented in these footnotes conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements. These financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. The Company has not realized revenues from its planned principal business purpose and is considered to be in its development state in accordance with SFAS 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development State Enterprises.”

Organization, Nature of Business and Trade Name

BlueStar Financial Group, Inc. (“BSFG” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on July 12, 2002 under the same name. The Company’s founder initially intended to establish a management and consulting business. The board of directors of the Company subsequently decided that the Company should pursue other opportunities and a change of control of the Company occurred on October 30, 2007. No business was conducted by the Corporation from inception on July 12, 2002 until a change of control occurred on October 30, 2007. The Company is a development stage enterprise and has as a principal business objective of working toward establishing “small ticket” equipment leases within a small niche of the equipment leasing market. The Company intends to provide cost effective “small ticket items” leasing to small and middle market companies primarily within the hospitality, spa and resort communities. Items such as audio visual, computer systems, laundry and health spa equipment are a few of the types of equipment contemplated by the Company that will be made available for lease to credit worthy companies.

Basis of Presentation

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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) all valid transactions are recorded and (3) transactions are recorded in the period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the company for the respective periods being presented.

NOTE A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Stockholders’ Equity: Common stock

The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 60,000,000 shares with par value of $0.001.  On October 30, 2007, the Company authorized the issuance of 7,400,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at $0.001 per share in consideration of $5,000 in cash and $2,400 in services. As of December 31, 2008, the shares were issued and outstanding.

Net loss per common share

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.”  The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic loss per share.  Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted averaged number of shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding.  Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised.

Basic net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during 2008 and since inception.  As of December 31, 2008 and since inception, the Company had 7,400,000 common shares outstanding and there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Basic Loss Per Share

The computations of basic loss per share of common stock are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding at the date of the financial statements. There are no common stock equivalents outstanding.

NOTE A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Provision for Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely that not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components from Inception on July 12, 2002 to December 31, 2008:

   
2008
 
Net operating loss carry forward
  $ 5,700  
Valuation allowance
    (5,700 )
Net deferred tax asset
  $ -  

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate of 34% to pretax income from continuing operations for the period ended December 31, 2008 due to the following:

   
Since Inception
 
Book loss
  $ 5,700  
Common stock issued for services
    2,400  
Valuation allowance
    -  
    $ 8,100  

At December 31, 2008, the Company had an operating loss carry forward of $5,700 that can be used as an offset against future taxable income. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2008 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry-forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations.  Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in the future.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in 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.  A change in managements’ estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on BlueStar Financial Group, Inc.’s financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such changes occurred.

Actual results could differ from those estimates. BlueStar Financial Group, Inc.’s financial statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

As at December 31, 2008, the fair value of cash and accounts and advances payable, including amounts due to and from related parties, approximate carrying values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards 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. That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.

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 also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. 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. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In May 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). This Statement is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This pronouncement has no effect on this Company’s financial reporting at this time.

In March of 2008 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities.”  SFAS No. 161 has the same scope as Statement No. 133 but requires enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged.  The statement encourages, but does not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption.  SFAS No. 161 has no effect on the Company’s financial position, statements of operations, or cash flows at this time.

In December, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51.”   SFAS No. 160 applies to “for-profit” entities that prepare consolidated financial statements where there is an outstanding non-controlling interest in a subsidiary.  The Statement requires that the non-controlling interest be reported in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet but identified separately from the parent.  The amount of consolidated net income attributed to the non-controlling interest is required to be presented, clearly labelled for the parent and the non-controlling entity, on the face of the consolidated statement of income.  When a subsidiary is de-consolidated, any retained non-controlling interest is to be measured at fair value.  Gain or loss on de-consolidation is recognized rather than carried as the value of the retained investment.  The Statement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  It cannot be adopted earlier but, once adopted, is to be applied retroactively.  This pronouncement has no effect on this Company’s financial reporting at this time.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No.141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”) and SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”). These standards aim to improve, simplify, and converge internationally the accounting for business combinations and the reporting of noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. The provisions of SFAS 141 (R) and SFAS 160 are effective for the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2009.  The adoption of SFAS 141(R) and SFAS 160 has not impacted the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

None of the above new pronouncements has current application to the Company, but may be applicable to the Company’s future financial reporting.

Long-lived Assets-Technology

The Company’s technology is recorded at its cost. The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Concentration of Risk

Cash – The Company at times may maintain a cash balance in excess of insured limits. At December 31, 2008, the Company has no cash in excess of insured limits.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when payments are billed to the customer and according to the terms of the contract. From inception to December 31, 2008, the Company has not recognized any revenues.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against operations. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.

Period from July 12, 2002 (Inception) to December 31, 2008

NOTE A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Property and Equipment (continued)

Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are:

 
Estimated Useful Lives
Office Equipment
5-10 years
Copier
5-7   years
Vehicles
5-10 years

For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed under the straight-line method.
 
Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at the expected net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management's assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivables.  If there were a deterioration of a major customer's creditworthiness, or actual defaults were higher than historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of the amounts due to us could be overstated, which could have a negative impact on operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $500 of cash and no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2008.
 
NOTE B – GOING CONCERN

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company does not have significant cash or other current assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern.  The Company intends to raise additional capital when required to produce crude oil from tar sands.  When and if these activities provide sufficient revenues it would allow it to continue as a going concern. In the interim the Company is working toward raising operating capital through the private placement of its common stock or debt instruments.

NOTE B – GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE C - SIGNIFICANT EVENTS
 
From Inception on July 12, 2002 to December 31, 2008, the Company has issued 7,400,000 shares of its common stock for $5,000 cash and $2,400 in services valued at $0.001 per share for a total consideration of $7,400.
 
NOTE D - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Company History

BlueStar Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage company that was incorporated on July 12, 2002, in the State of Nevada. The Company has never declared bankruptcy, it has never been in receivership, and it has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Since becoming incorporated, BlueStar has not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations and the Company owns no subsidiaries.  The fiscal year end is June 30th.  The Company has not had revenues from operations since its inception and/or any interim period in the current fiscal year.

Business Development 
 The Company intends to enter into the small ticket segment of the equipment leasing industry. To date, our business activities have been limited to organizational matters, researching market potential for our business, the preparation and filing of our registration statement, which was deemed effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 12, 2008, raising proceeds and maintaining our reporting requirements as required under the Exchange Act of 1934.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2008, we have $1,700 of cash available.  We have no current liabilities.  From the date of inception (July 12, 2002) to December 31 , 2008 the Company has recorded a net loss of $5,700 of which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company, filing its Registration Statement on Form S-1, and expenses relating to maintaining reporting company status with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We have not generated any revenues to date.  As of the date of this report we have sold approximately 4,900,000 common shares through out registered offering raising approximately $147,000. However, we will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives over the course of the next twelve months. There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. If we cannot secure additional funds our business will fail and any investment made into the Company would be lost in its entirety.

To date there is no public market for the Company’s common stock.  Management’s objective is to continue to focus efforts on raising funds through its registered offering, obtaining quotation of the Company’s common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) and maintain the reporting requirements as defined under the Exchange Act of 1934 for Reporting Companies.  There can be no guarantee or assurance that they will be successful in raising any funds at all; or obtaining a quotation of the common stock on the OTCBB.  Failure to create a market for the Company’s common stock would result in business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our net results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

Product Research and Development

The Company does not anticipate any costs or expenses to be incurred for product research and development within the next twelve months.
The Company does not plan any purchase of significant equipment in the next twelve months.

Employees

We currently have two employees, including our President.  We do not intend to hire any employees for the next 6 months.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of 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. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different future conditions.

We believe that the estimates and assumptions that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, in that they require subjective or complex judgments, form the basis for the accounting policies deemed to be most critical to us. These relate to bad debts, impairment of intangible assets and long lived assets, contractual adjustments to revenue, and contingencies and litigation. We believe estimates and assumptions related to these critical accounting policies are appropriate under the circumstances; however, should future events or occurrences result in unanticipated consequences, there could be a material impact on our future financial conditions or results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)           Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, on behalf of the Company, has considered certain internal control procedures as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”) Section 404 A which accomplishes the following:
 
Internal controls are mechanisms to ensure objectives are achieved and are under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, being Paul Voorhees. Good controls encourage efficiency, compliance with laws and regulations, sound information, and seek to eliminate fraud and abuse.
 
These control procedures provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Internal control is "everything that helps one achieve one's goals - or better still, to deal with the risks that stop one from achieving one's goals."
 
 Internal controls are mechanisms that are there to help the Company manage risks to success.
 
Internal controls is about getting things done (performance) but also about ensuring that they are done properly (integrity) and that this can be demonstrated and reviewed (transparency and accountability).
 
In other words, control activities are the policies and procedures that help ensure the Company’s management directives are carried out. They help ensure that necessary actions are taken to address risks to achievement of the Company’s objectives. Control activities occur throughout the Company, at all levels and in all functions. They include a range of activities as diverse as approvals, authorizations, verifications, reconciliations, reviews of operating performance, security of assets and segregation of duties.

As of December 31, 2008, the management of the Company assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments.  Management concluded, during the quarter ended December 31, 2008, internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules.  Management realized there are deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company’s internal control that adversely affected the Company’s internal controls which management considers being material weaknesses.

In the light of management’s review of internal control procedures as they relate to COSO and the SEC the following were identified:

 
3

 
 
●              The Company’s Audit Committee does not function as an Audit Committee should since there is a lack of independent directors on the Committee and the Board of Directors has not identified an “expert”, one who is knowledgeable about reporting and financial statements requirements, to serve on the Audit Committee.

●              The Company has limited segregation of duties which is not consistent with good internal control procedures.

●              The Company does not have a written internal control procedurals manual which outlines the duties and reporting requirements of the Directors and any staff to be hired in the future.  This lack of a written internal control procedurals manual does not meet the requirements of the SEC or good internal control.

●              There are no effective controls instituted over financial disclosure and the reporting processes.

Management feels the weaknesses identified above, being the latter three, have not had any affect on the financial results of the Company. Management will have to address the lack of independent members on the Audit Committee and identify an “expert” for the Committee to advise other members as to correct accounting and reporting procedures.

The Company and its management will endeavor to correct the above noted weaknesses in internal control once it has adequate funds to do so.   By appointing independent members to the Audit Committee and using the services of an expert on the Committee will greatly improve the overall performance of the Audit Committee.   With the addition of other Board Members and staff the segregation of duties issue will be address and will no longer be a concern to management.  By having a written policy manual outlining the duties of each of the officers and staff of the Company will facilitate better internal control procedures.
 
 Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

(b)           Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could affect its disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the Evaluation Date, nor any deficiencies or material weaknesses in such disclosure controls and procedures requiring corrective actions.
