Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the wholly owned subsidiaries of HAUTE, CAMP, and altCUBE.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable 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. The most significant estimates include: revenue recognition; sales returns and other allowances; allowance for doubtful accounts; valuation of inventory; valuation and recoverability of long-lived assets; property and equipment; contingencies; and income taxes.

 

On a regular basis, management reviews its estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition Policies

We intend to earn revenue from the subscription, non-software related hosted services, term-based and perpetual licensing of software products, associated software maintenance and support plans, consulting services, training, and technical support.

 

On February 1, 2018, we adopted Topic 606, using the modified retrospective transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of February 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after February 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting. The impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material to our financial statements and there was no adjustment to beginning retained earnings on February 1, 2018.

 

Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

·         identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

·         identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

·         determination of the transaction price;

·         allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

·         recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Research and Development

Research and Development Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognized in profit or loss as an expense as incurred.

  

Expenditure on development activities, whereby research findings are applied to a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes, is capitalized only if the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, if development costs can be measured reliably, if future economic benefits are probable, if the Company intends to use or sell the asset and the Company intends and has sufficient resources to complete development. The Company has recognized $2,160 as a capital asset for the nine months ended October 31, 2018 and $82,800 for the six months ended July 31, 2017.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.  The Company places its temporary cash investments with financial institutions insured by the FDIC.

 

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables and commodities are limited due to the diverse group of customers to whom the Company provides services to. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts when events and circumstances regarding the collectability of its receivables or the selling of its commodities warrant based upon factors such as the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, other information and past bad debt history. The outstanding balances are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Our cash balances are maintained in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions located in the United States. The Company may occasionally maintain amounts on deposit with a financial institution that are in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000. The risk is managed by maintaining all deposits in high-quality financial institutions.

 

The Company had $0 in excess of federally insured limits on October 31, 2018, and October 31, 2017.

 

For the nine month period ended October 31, 2018, sales to the Company’s primary customer, Render Payment, LLC accounted for approximately 0% of revenues and 99.6% of accounts receivable, there were $1,254,530 accounts receivable for the nine month period ended October 31, 2018 and $1,469,986 for the nine month period ended October 31, 2017.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

The Company recognizes the direct cost of purchasing product for sale, including freight-in and packaging, as cost of goods sold in the accompanying statement of operations.

 

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes: manufacturing and distribution costs for products sold and programs licensed; operating costs related to product support service centers and product distribution centers; costs incurred to include software on PCs sold by OEMs, to drive traffic to our websites and products, and to acquire online advertising space; costs incurred to support and maintain Internet-based products and services, including data center costs and royalties; warranty costs; inventory valuation adjustments; costs associated with the delivery of consulting services; and the amortization of capitalized software development costs. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over the estimated lives of the products.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company includes in cash and cash equivalents all short-term, highly liquid investments that mature within three months of the date of purchase. Cash equivalents consist principally of investments in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts and liquidity funds with financial institutions and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. For cash management purposes, the company concentrates its cash holdings in an account at Bank of America. The Company had no cash equivalents as of October 31, 2018, or October 31, 2017.

 

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment (“PPE”) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Additions, improvements and major replacements that extend the life of the asset are capitalized.

  

Depreciation and amortization are recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of depreciable assets, which are generally three to five periods.

  

The Company classifies its software under the Financial Accounting Standards Advisory Board (FASAB) Statement of Federal Financial Accounting Standards (SFFAS) No. 10, Accounting for Internal Use Software, and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 42, Accounting of Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. When software is used in providing goods and services it is classified as PPE.  The Company considers its proprietary software as a major part of the Company’s operations that are intended to provide profits.

 

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable are trade accounts receivable.  The Company recognized $0 as an uncollectable reserve for the nine month periods ending October 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

Advertising Costs and Expense

The advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $9,795 for the nine month period ending October 31, 2018 and $4,725 for the nine month period ending October 31, 2017.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional currency and its reporting currency is the United States Dollar.

 

Income Taxes

In accordance with SAB Topic 1: Financial Statements, Subsidiary’s or Division’s Separate Financial Statements and Segments, income taxes are consolidated with MCIG, the controlling entity of the Company.  There are currently no tax implications should the Company not consolidate with MCIG. With only losses showing for the periods shown there would be no taxes payable for any periods presented. If there were tax expenses they would be based on the IRS published corporate tax rate of 34% for 2017 and 21% for 2018.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company follows ASC Topic 260 – Earnings Per Share, and FASB 2015-06, Earnings Per Share to account for earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation. 

  

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company reports and accounts for its commitments and contingencies in accordance with ASC 440 – Commitments and ASC 450 – Contingencies.  We recognize a loss on a contingency when it is probable a loss will incur and that the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.  The Company recognized $0 as a loss on contingencies in the six month periods ending October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017.
