NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization - Bioethics, Ltd. (“the Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 26, 1990. The Company was organized to provide a vehicle for participating in potentially profitable business ventures which may become available through the personal contacts of, and at the complete discretion of, the Company’s officers and directors. The Company has, at the present time, not paid any dividends and any dividends that may be paid in the future will depend upon the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant factors.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Loss Per Share -The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC Topic No. 260, “Earnings Per Share” [See Note 5].
Accounting Estimates - 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, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimated.
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - The FASB established the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants. Certain accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB. The Company has reviewed these pronouncements, and none will have an effect on the financial statements of the Company.
Fixed Assets - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred, and renewals and improvements that extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives.
The Company’s only fixed asset is computer equipment acquired in 2016 with a cost of $1,429 that is depreciated over a useful life of five years. Depreciation expense was $286 and $285 during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, resulting in net fixed assets of $512 and $798 at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
NOTE 2 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic No. 740, “Income Taxes.” This standard requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards.
The Company has no tax provisions at December 31, 2019 and 2018, for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.
The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized no interest and penalties. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss (NOL) and tax credit carryforwards 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 than 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.

At December 31, 2019, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $826,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2020 through 2039. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2019 or 2018 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. There is no provision for state taxes, since the Company’s operations have been limited to administrative expenses and fund-raising in the state of its incorporation (Nevada) which has no income tax.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years. The tax years that remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions are those for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Management Compensation - For the years ended December 2019 and 2018, the Company did not pay any compensation to its officers and directors.

The Company has recorded rent expense of $6,000 and $6,000 during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which is included in the general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations. The amount payable at December 31, 2018 was $1,500. During the year ended December 31. 2019, the Company paid $6,000, resulting in $1,500 payable at December 31, 2019.

Principal balance on the note at December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $43,250 and $43,250, respectively.
NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred losses since its inception and has no on-going operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through loans, additional sales of its common stock or through a possible business combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
NOTE 5 - LOSS PER SHARE
The computation of basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each year.

The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year plus the common stock equivalents as detailed in the following chart. In 2019 and 2018, the inclusion of these shares on the statement of operations would have resulted in a weighted average shares fully diluted number that was anti-dilutive and as such they are excluded.

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were issued and determined there are no additional events requiring disclosure other than the following:
As reported in our current report on Form 8-K filed on March 5, 2020, we unwound a transaction wherein we had acquired certain real property assets and notes receivable in exchange for 220,000,000 shares of our common stock. The relevant transactions, are briefly summarized as follows:
On December 5, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the transactions with First Federal Management Group, Inc., a Utah corporation (“First Federal”) by which the parties entered into a Contribution Agreement. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, First Federal contributed, assigned and transferred to the Company assets consisting substantially of real property (the “Assets”). Property descriptions for the parcels held in fee simple are disclosed on Schedule 1 to the Contribution Agreement.
As part of the Contribution Agreement, First Federal executed deeds transferring the Assets from First Federal to the Company. Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, First Federal contributed, assigned and transferred to the Company the Assets in exchange for the issuance to First Federal of 220,000,000 shares of common stock representing 95.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
Effective as of February 24, 2020, the parties entered into a Rescission Agreement wherein the parties were required to unwind the Contribution Agreement and First Federal was required to transfer the 220,000,000 million Company common stock shares to the Company for cancellation and the Company was required to convey back to First Federal real property Assets as well as the rights to debt repayments. Also in connection with the Rescission Agreement, Keven Walgamott, Paul Simms, and Joshua Turnbow who were briefly officers and/or directors of the Company as a result of the original asset Contribution Agreement resigned all positions at the Company.
For further information, please refer to the copy of the Rescission Agreement, and exhibits thereto, that is filed as Exhibit 10.10 the current report on Form 8-K filed on March 5, 2020. There are representations and warranties contained in the Rescission Agreement that were made by the parties to each other as of specific dates. The assertions embodied in these representations and warranties were made solely for purposes of the Rescission Agreement and may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating their terms. Moreover, some representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date because they are subject to a contractual standard of materiality that is different from certain standards generally applicable to shareholders or were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. For these reasons, investors should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Rescission Agreement as statements of factual information.
We currently do not intend to engage in real estate related business or transactions in the foreseeable future.
