NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Fresh Start Private Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 1, 2006. On July 31, 2012 the Company changed its name to TAP RESOURCES, INC. We are an exploration stage company, with a mining exploration project (the “Marowijine Project”) in the Republic of Suriname that has not realized any revenues to date.
On September 12, 2012, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the ‘Share Exchange Agreement”) which resulted in a Reverse Takeover with selling stockholders named in the prospectus, pursuant to which the Company offered and sold an aggregate of 90,000,000 shares of common stock to all the stockholders of Infinity Resources, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Infinity”), incorporated in the State of Nevada, on April 27, 2012. The acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of Tap Resources, Inc with Infinity Resources, Inc as the accounting acquirer in accordance with the Reverse Merger rules. As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange Agreement Infinity became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the mineral exploration business of Infinity is now the primary business of the Company.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Going concern
To date the Company has generated no revenues from its business operations and has incurred losses since inception of $9,902. As at November 30, 2013, the Company has a working capital deficit of $165,916. The Company requires additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to continue to fund its mineral exploration business by way of private placements and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes. The Company's bank accounts are deposited in insured institutions.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with “ASC-260,” “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss
per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As the company does not have any dilutive shares outstanding as of November 30, 2013, the accompanied financial statements present only basic loss per share.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with FASB accounting standards for Accounting for Income Taxes and Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Under this method, 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 balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences
are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Mineral Property Expenditures
The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties.
Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities-Mining,” when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property acquisition costs are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization are not met. In the event that mineral property acquisition costs are paid with Company shares, those shares are recorded at the estimated fair value at the time the shares are due in accordance with the terms of the property agreements.
Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred.
When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and pre-feasibility, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized.
Estimated future removal and site restoration costs, when determinable are provided over the life of proven reserves on a units-of-production basis. Costs, which include production equipment removal and environmental remediation, are estimated each period by management based on current regulations, actual expenses incurred, and technology and industry standards. Any charge is included in exploration expense or the provision for depletion and depreciation during the period and the actual restoration expenditures are charged to the accumulated provision amounts as incurred.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.
Asset Retirement Obligations
In accordance with accounting standards for asset retirement obligations (ASC 410), the Company records the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (ARO) when there is a legal obligation associated with the retirement of a tangible long-lived asset and the liability can be reasonably estimated. No ARO’s associated with legal obligations to retire oil and gas properties have been recognized, as indeterminate settlement dates for the asset retirements prevent estimation of the fair value of the
associated ARO. The Company performs periodic reviews of its mineral properties long-lived assets for any changes in facts and circumstances that might require recognition of a retirement obligation.
Fair value of financial instruments
The estimated fair values of financial instruments were determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash approximate their fair value because of their short maturities.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to employees based on FASB accounting standard for Share Based Payment. It requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award – the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). It requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized
in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The scope of the FASB accounting standard includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Stock-based Compensation (continued)
As at November 30, 2013, the Company had no stock-based compensation plans nor had it granted any stock options. Accordingly no stock-based compensation has been recorded to date.
Recent pronouncements
The Company has evaluated the recent accounting pronouncements and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE 3 – ACQUISITION - INFINITY RESOURCES, INC.

For the years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded.

At November 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had approximately $46,798 and $8,560 of federal and state net operating losses.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of November 30, 2013 and 2012 was $16,380 and $2,996 respectively. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result, management determined it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of November 30, 2013 and 2012, and recorded a full valuation allowance.
Reconciliation between the statutory rate and the effective tax rate is as follows at November 30:
