Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Accounting
Basis of Presentation and Organization
Guskin Gold Corp. (fka Inspired Builders, Inc.) (the “Company”,”Guskin”, “We”, and “Us”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in February 2010. Until August 15, 2017, the Company was directing its focus on acquiring, investing in, developing and managing real estate properties and related investments. On August 15, 2017, pursuant to a change in control transaction, we relocated to Miami, Florida and ceased all operations as a real estate company.
On January 16, 2020, Santa Alba, LLC sold the 956,440 shares of common stock to Custodian Ventures, LLC for an aggregate purchase price of $145,000. At this point there was a change of control of the Company and Kai Ming Zhao resigned as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director and David Lazar was appointed as President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.
On April 30, 2020, Custodian Ventures, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“CVL”) and the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with U Green Enterprise, a Ghana corporation (the “Purchaser”). The Agreement closed upon execution on April 30, 2020 (“Closing”). Pursuant to the Agreement, CVL agreed to sell and Purchaser agreed to purchase 956,440 restricted common stock shares of the Company (the “Shares”), representing approximately 94.6% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Agreement, Purchaser agreed to pay CVL as follows: (i) $157,640 payable at the Closing in exchange for the Shares, and (ii) to repay the note outstanding to CVL in amount of $67,360 immediately following the Closing. The Agreement resulted in a change of control of the Company and David Lazar resigned effective immediately as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director and Edward Somuah was appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and sole director.
Guskin Gold Corporation (“GGC”) was incorporated in May 28, 2020 in the state of Nevada. GGC’s business activity is the early-stage development of a business focusing on the acquisition of gold properties, and the exploration and potential development of small-scale gold mining operations in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa.
On September 3, 2020, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with GGC, and the controlling stockholders of GGC (the “GGC Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired One Hundred Percent (100%) the issued and outstanding equity interest of GGC from the GGC Shareholders (the “GGC Shares”) and in exchange the Company issued to GGC an aggregate of Twenty-Eight Million Two Hundred Thousand (28,200,000) shares of restricted common stock of the Company.
The Share Exchange is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under U.S. GAAP as the Share Exchange results in a change of control of the Company. GGC was determined to be the accounting acquirer based upon the terms of the Share Exchange and other factors including: (i) GGC’s shareholders are expected to own approximately 96.54% of the Company issued and outstanding common stock immediately following the effective time of the Share Exchange (the “Closing”), and (ii) GGC’s management will hold all key positions in the management of the combined company.
As of September 22, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), GGC provided us with valid and accepted audited financial statements, accordingly the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement have been satisfied, accordingly the Share Exchange Agreement is closed (“Closing”).
The Company filed the Amended Articles of Incorporation effecting the Name Change with the Nevada Secretary of State, effective November 30, 2020. As previously reported, shareholders approved the Name Change and Symbol Change on September 22, 2020, in connection with the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement between the Company and Guskin Gold Corp.
On December 3, 2020, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) announced the effectiveness of a change in the Company’s name from “Inspired Builders, Inc.” to “Guskin Gold Corp.” (the “Name Change”) and a change in the Company’s ticker symbol from “ISRB” to the new trading symbol ”GKIN” (the “Symbol Change”). Trading under the new ticker symbol began at market opening December 4, 2020. The Company’s CUSIP also changed to 40330L100
Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies
Principles of Consolidation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, GGC and Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited from June 02, 2021, inception date. All intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation as at December 31, 2021.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting within the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. There were cash equivalents of $17,324 at December 31, 2021 and $6,044 cash equivalents at September 30, 2021.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $104,963 in convertible debt which if exercised would convert into 4,622,875 and as of September 30, 2021, and $45,000 in convertible debt which if exercised would convert into 4,500,000 shares of common stock.
Use of 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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the assumptions used in valuation of equity-based transactions, valuation of derivative liabilities and valuation of deferred taxes.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue under Accounts Standard Codification (“ASC”) ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
The Company has only recently changed its business focus to its current business of exploration, development, production, and export of gold in Ghana, and to smartly find, build, and operate profitable gold and precious metal properties. Consequently, we have only limited operating history and an unproven business strategy, no current properties and prospects that have yet to be developed. As such, no revenue has been recognized to date.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
We review and evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated undiscounted pretax future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of future cash flows from other asset groups. An impairment loss is measured by discounted estimated future cash flows and recorded by reducing the asset’s carrying amount to fair value. Future cash flows are estimated based on estimated quantities of recoverable minerals, expected gold prices (considering current and historical prices, trends, and related factors), production levels, operating costs, capital requirements and reclamation costs, all based on life-of-mine plans.
Existing proven and probable reserves and value beyond proven and probable reserves, including mineralization other than proven and probable reserves are included when determining the fair value of mine site asset groups at acquisition and, subsequently, in determining whether the assets are impaired. The term “recoverable minerals” refers to the estimated amount of gold, silver, lead, and zinc that will be obtained after taking into account losses during ore processing and treatment. Estimates of recoverable minerals from exploration stage mineral interests are risk adjusted based on management’s relative confidence in such materials. The ability to achieve the estimated quantities of recoverable minerals from exploration stage mineral interests involves further risks in addition to those risk factors applicable to mineral interests where proven and probable reserves have been identified, due to the lower level of confidence that the identified mineralized material could ultimately be mined economically. Assets classified as exploration potential have the highest level of risk that the carrying value of the asset can be ultimately realized, due to the still lower level of geological confidence and economic modeling.
Gold prices are volatile and affected by many factors beyond the Company’s control, including prevailing interest rates and returns on other asset classes, expectations regarding inflation, speculation, currency values, governmental decisions regarding precious metals stockpiles, global and regional demand and production, political and economic conditions and other factors may affect the key assumptions used in the Company’s impairment testing. Various factors could impact our ability to achieve forecasted production levels from proven and probable reserves. Additionally, production, capital and reclamation costs could differ from the assumptions used in the cash flow models used to assess impairment. Actual results may vary from the Company’s estimates and result in additional Impairment of Long-lived Assets.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 addresses all forms of share-based payment awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans and stock incentive shares. Under ASC 718 awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in a charge to operations.
Derivative Instrument Liability
The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other financial instruments or contracts and requires recognition of all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, regardless of hedging relationship designation. Accounting for changes in fair value of the derivative instruments depends on whether the derivatives qualify as hedging relationships and the types of relationships designated are based on the exposures hedged. At December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the Company had a derivative liability of $8,045,093 and $11,070,004, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or in management’s opinion will not have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.
Note 3 - Reverse Merger
On September 03, 2020, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with GGC and the shareholders of GGC. GGC’ current plan of operation consists of identifying, assessing and vetting various gold and mineral properties, specifically focusing on gold properties and the exploration and potential development of small-scale gold mining operations in the Republic of Ghana, West Africa.
At the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange (the “Closing”), in exchange for 28,200,000 shares of GGC’ common stock which represents 100% of the currently issued and outstanding capital stock of GGC, the Company will issue 28,200,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock to the GGC’ shareholders, representing approximately 96.54% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock of the Company upon Closing. As a result of the Share Exchange, GGC shall become the Company’ wholly owned subsidiary, and the Company shall acquire the business and operations of GGC. The Closing of the Share Exchange is subject to certain conditions, including the approval of the Company’s shareholders. The Share Exchange closed September 22, 2020.
For accounting purposes, GGC is considered to be the acquiring company and the Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization of the Company by GGC because (i) GGC’ shareholders own approximately 96.54% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock immediately following the effective time of the Share Exchange, and (ii) GGC’ management holds all key positions in the management of the combined company following the Closing. Under reverse recapitalization accounting, the assets and liabilities of the Company are recorded, as of the Closing, at their fair value which approximates its book value because of the short-term nature of the instruments. No goodwill or intangible assets were recognized. Consequently, the financial statements of GGC reflect the operations of the acquirer for accounting purposes together with a deemed issuance of shares, equivalent to the shares held by the former stockholders of the legal acquirer and a recapitalization of the equity of the accounting acquirer.
The following is the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by GGC in the Share Exchange:
Total Assets assumed | | $ | 27,502 | |
Total Liabilities assumed | | | (2,202,101 | ) |
Net Liabilities assumed | | $ | (2,174,599 | ) |
Note 4 - Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has net income of $2,867,579 and net loss of $75,239 for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. In addition, the Company has accumulated deficit of $10,610,564 and $13,478,144 and working capital deficit of $8,721,536 and $11,350,615 as of December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or be successful in the development and commercialization of the products it develops or initiates collaboration agreements thereon. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Note 5 - Investment in mineral rights
On June 10, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company ratified entry into a Joint Venture & Partnership Agreement (the “JV Agreement”) with Africa Exploration & Minerals Group Limited, a company incorporated in Ghana (the “AEMG”), dated June 1, 2021, Additionally, AEMG granted to the Company an exclusive option to earn and acquire up to a 50% ownership interest in certain project, properties and concession located in the Country of Ghana in which AEMG has an interest (the “Ghana Option Interest”). The initial project that the Parties shall endeavor to undertake pursuant to the Partnership is approximately 1 square km or 247 acres of land, (which is approximately 61.75 Ghana acers) of the Shewn Edged Pink Concession (the “Concession”). The Parties intend this to be an unincorporated contractual joint venture in respect of the exploration, development, exploitation, and operation of the Concession. The Company has formed a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in Ghana and duly authorized to conduct business in precious metals and in mining activities in Ghana named Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited. All operations relating to the Concession will be undertaken by Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited. The Company, through Guskin Gold Ghana #1 Limited now holds 25% non-controlling interest of the Shewn Edged Pink Concession. The JV is considered as an unincorporated legal entity for accounting purposes, in accordance with ASC 323, therefore the Company has elected to account for all activity related to the JV under proportional consolidation of the results of operations. The Company issued 250,000 restricted common shares the Company’s common stock, at a per share valuation of $0.0217 per share (the “Shares”) for a total fair value of $5,426. There are no proven mineral reserves on the Shewn Edged Pink Concession as of September 30, 2021. During the three Months ended December 31, 2021 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, Guskin Gold advanced a total of $14,000 and $67,500 to AEMG, respectively. Management evaluated the investment in mineral rights annually for impairment and determined that the total amount capitalized was impaired. An impairment loss totaling $14,000 and $81,923 was recorded during three months ended December 31, 2021 and for the fiscal the year ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
In the beginning of November 2021, Company management, while visiting our operations in Ghana, noticed various accounting discrepancies and expenses irregularities relating to AEMG’s activities at the Concession. Additionally, during this time the Company was informed that, on information and belief, AEMG was not the rightful owner of the Concession and in fact had no legal right to enter the Partnership with the Company. Thereafter, the Company met with AEMG on several occasions seeking to resolve these matters in a manner that would be mutually agreeable to both parties. All attempts, as of the date of this report, to resolve the dispute amicably have been unsuccessful. The Company has retained Ghanaian counsel to represent and protect its interests relating to the disputed funds and our ongoing operation in Ghana. Also, on advice of counsel, the Company has turned all evidence of the foregoing over to the proper authorities and currently the matter is under review by the lead prosecutors in Accra, Ghana.

Note 9 - Derivative liability
The Company has determined that the variable conversion prices under its convertible notes caused the embedded conversion feature to be a financial derivative. The derivative instruments were valued at loan origination date, date of debt conversion and at December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021. The fair values of the derivative liabilities related to the conversion options of these notes was estimated on the transaction dates (loan original date and reporting date) using the Black Scholes option pricing model, under the following assumptions:
| | December 31, 2021 | | | September 30, 2021 | |
| | | | |
Shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of debt | | | 4,622,875 | | | | 4,500,000 | |
Estimated market value of common stock on measurement date | | $ | 1.76 | | | $ | 2.47 | |
Exercise price | | $ | 0.01-1.256 | | | $ | 0.01 | |
Risk free interest rate (1) | | 0.39-0.73 | % | | 0.11-0.16 | % |
Expected dividend yield (2) | | | 0 | % | | | 0 | % |
Expected volatility (3) | | 70.05-112.39 | % | | | 64.21 | % |
Expected exercise term in years (4) | | 0.60 - 2.00 | | | 0.60- 1.00 | |
(1) | The risk -free interest rate was determined by management using the one-month Treasury bill yield as of the valuation dates. |
(2) | The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the expected term of the share options and similar instruments. |
(3) | The volatility was determined by referring to the average historical volatility of a peer group of public companies because we do not have sufficient trade history to determine our historical volatility. |
(4) | The exercise term is the remaining contractual term of the convertible instrument at the valuation date. |

Note 10 - Commitment and Contingencies
In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, and it continues to spread throughout the United States and the rest of the world with different geographical locations impacted more than others. The outbreak of COVID-19 and public and private sector measures to reduce its transmission, such as the imposition of social distancing and orders to work-from-home, stay-at-home and shelter-in-place, have had a minimal impact on our day to day operations. However, this could impact our efforts to enter into a business combination as other businesses have had to adjust, reduce or suspend their operating activities.
