Critical Accounting Policies
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES**
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The financial information and disclosures contained within those statements are significantly impacted by Management’s estimates and judgments, which are based on historical experience and incorporate various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates under divergent conditions.
Critical accounting policies are those that involve the most complex and subjective decisions and assessments which have the greatest potential impact on the Company’s stated results of operations. In Management’s opinion, the Company’s critical accounting policies deal with the following areas:
| ● | the establishment of the allowance for credit losses, as explained in detail in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements and in the “Provision for Credit Losses” and “Allowance for Credit Losses” sections of this discussion and analysis; |
| ● | the valuation of individually evaluated loans, as discussed in Notes 8 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements; |
Critical accounting areas are evaluated on an ongoing basis to ensure that the Company’s financial statements incorporate its most recent expectations regarding those areas.
