Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation which is determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of two years for computer equipment and software,
three years for furniture and fixtures, and the shorter of the estimated useful lives or the lease term for leasehold improvements. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as they are incurred.
Goodwill
We test goodwill for impairment annually on September 30 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. Consistent with our assessment that we have only one reporting segment, we test goodwill for impairment at the entity level. We test
goodwill using the two-step process required by ASC 350. In the first step, we compare the carrying value of the reporting unit to the fair value based on quoted market prices of our common stock. If the fair value of
the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, goodwill is not considered impaired and no further testing is required. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and
the second step of the impairment test must be performed. In the second step, we compare the implied fair value of the goodwill, as defined by ASC 350, to the carrying amount to determine the impairment loss, if
any.
We conduct our annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill on September 30. No goodwill impairment charges have been recorded through December 31, 2014.
Long-Lived Assets
We record purchased identifiable intangible assets at fair value. Useful life is estimated as the period over which the identifiable intangible assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future
cash flows of the Company. As we do not believe that we can reliably determine a pattern by which the economic benefits of these identifiable intangible assets will be consumed, management adopted straight-line
amortization in accordance with ASC 350. The original cost is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each identifiable intangible asset.
The Company assesses its long-lived assets, which includes property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment - Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. An impairment loss would be recognized when the sum of the
future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. If our estimates regarding future cash flows derived from such assets were to change, we
may record an impairment charge to the value of these assets. Such impairment loss would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value.
Revenue Recognition
For all transactions, we recognize revenue only when all of the following criteria are met:
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
Delivery has occurred;
Collection is considered probable; and
The fees are fixed or determinable.
We consider all arrangements with payment terms longer than 90 days not to be fixed or determinable. If the fee is considered not to be fixed or determinable, revenue is recognized as payment becomes due
from the customer provided all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.
Services Revenue
Services revenue is comprised primarily of fees for technology support services. Our service programs are designed for both the consumer and small and medium business (“SMB”) markets, and include
computer and mobile device set-up, security and support, virus and malware removal and wireless network set-up, and automation system onboarding and support.
