Nature of Business The companies are engaged in manufacturing and remanufacturing aftermarket auto parts.
   
Basis of Presentation These financial statements present the combined financial position and results of operations of Fenwick Automotive Products Limited and Introcan Inc., including their subsidiaries Fapco, S.A. de C.V., Flo-Pro Inc., L.H. Distribution Inc., Rafko Enterprises Inc. and Rafko Holdings Inc.  All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
   
Basis of Accounting These interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada.  The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The interim financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly prepared using careful judgment within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the accounting policies summarized below.
   
  As at December 31, 2009 the companies were in violation of their banking covenants and the bank had made demand of their loan. The management of the companies were pursuing alternatives relating to financing the operations of the business and was successful in obtaining new financing in October 2010.k
   
Differential Reporting The companies with the unanimous consent of its owners, elected to prepare its interim financial statements using differential reporting options available to non-publicly accountable enterprises described below:
   
  Special Share Classification
   
  The companies have elected to present special shares issued in tax planning arrangements under certain sections of the Income Tax Act, that would otherwise be presented as liabilities, as equity.
   
  In 2010, all of these special shares were redeemed as referred to in note 10.

Accounting Estimates and  
Measurement Uncertainty These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. By their nature these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty. Significant areas requiring the use of significant judgement include the estimated useful life of capital assets and future income taxes.  The effect on the financial statements of changes in such estimates in future periods could be material and would be accounted for in the period the change occurs.
   
Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized when products are shipped to customers, the sales price is fixed and determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured, and title and risks of ownership have passed to the buyer. Revenue is net of discounts, rebates and allowances.
   
  The companies enter into factoring agreements with a third party for sale of accounts receivable.  The transaction is accounted for as a sale as all risks have transferred to the third party.  The cost of the transaction is included in the interim statement of operations.
   
Product Warranties The companies provide product warranties and makes provisions for the anticipated cost of these warranties through cost of sales; this provision is reviewed periodically to assess its adequacy in the light of actual warranty costs incurred.
   
Inventories Raw materials and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.  The cost of finished goods is calculated to include raw materials, labour and factory overhead.  Cost is generally determined on the first-in, first-out basis.
   
Income Taxes The companies follow the liability method of tax allocation in accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, future income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and measured using the substantively enacted tax rates and laws expected to be in effect when the differences are realized, as well as recognition of income tax loss carryforwards that are more likely than not to be realized.

Financial Instruments Fair value
   
  The companies' financial instruments consist of instruments with various maturities. The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, due to/from related parties, bank indebtedness, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their  carrying values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.  Capital lease obligations are at fair value.  The fair value of the long-term debt approximates carrying value as substantially all of the debt is due in the next fiscal year.  The fair value of the debenture approximates carrying value.
   
  Currency risk
   
  The companies realize approximately 86% of its sales and approximately 89% of its cost of sales and expenses in a foreign currency.  During 2009, the companies realized approximately 76% of its sales and approximately 84% of its cost of sales and expenses in foreign currency. Consequently, some assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are exposed to foreign exchange fluctuations.  The long-term debt and debenture are due in a foreign currency.
   
  In the normal course of business, the companies evaluate the financial position of their customers on a regular basis and examine the credit history of new customers.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the customer's specific risk and historical trends.  The companies believe the credit risk regarding receivables to be minimal due to the diversification of its customer base.
   
  Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the companies are not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from its financial instruments.
   
Capital Assets Capital assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is based on the estimated useful lives of the asset using the declining balance method at the following annual rates:
 
Building
-    5   %
Office equipment
-    20   %
Computer equipment
-    30   %
Plant equipment
-    20   % - 30%
Leasehold improvements
-   straight-line over 5 years
 
Transaction Costs The company has elected to record all costs related to transaction costs incurred to obtain the bank financing as an expense during the period they are incurred.

Assets Under Capital Lease The companies' policy is to record capital leases, which transfer substantially all benefits and risks incident to ownership of property, as acquisitions of assets and to record the incurrences of corresponding obligations as liabilities.  Obligations under capital leases are reduced by lease payments net of imputed interest.
   
Deferred Start-up Costs Deferred start-up costs represent the cost incurred by a subsidiary prior to the commencement of commercial operations.  These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over a four year period.
   
Long-lived Assets    The companies follow the recommendations issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants ("CICA") Handbook Section 3063, "Impairment on Long-lived Assets." Under this section, an impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value. This standard has had no material impact on the companies' results of operations or financial position.
   
Foreign Currency Translation The interim financial statements of the companies' foreign subsidiaries are considered to be operationally dependent upon the companies.
   
  Foreign operations which are operationally dependent are translated using the temporal method.  Under this method, revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly rates in effect on the transaction dates.  Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical exchange rates.  Exchange gains and losses on translation are included in the consolidated interim statements of operations and retained earnings.
   
  Foreign currency accounts are translated into Canadian dollars as follows:
   
  At the transaction date, each asset, liability, revenue and expense is translated into Canadian dollars by the use of the exchange rate in effect at that date.  At the period end date, monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars by using the exchange rate in effect at that date.  The resulting foreign exchange gains and losses are included in income in the current period.

15.      Reconciliation to United States GAAP (continued)
 
 
(a)
As allowed under GAAP, deferred start-up costs were capitalized and then amortized on a straight-line basis over a four year period.  Under US GAAP start-up costs are expensed as incurred, thus the unamortized deferred start-up costs at December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amortization expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related tax impacts of the deferral and amortization expense for those periods were adjusted from the financial statement to comply with US GAAP.
 
 
(b)
The companies, with the unanimous consent of its owners, elected to prepare their financial statements using differential reporting options available to non-publicly accountable enterprises and have, therefore, presented special shares issued in tax planning arrangements under certain sections of theIncome Tax Act that would otherwise by presented as liabilities, as equity.  Such presentation options are not available under US GAAP and thus the adjustment was made to re-establish the liabilities at December 31, 2009 to comply with US GAAP.  The special shares were redeemed in June 2010, thus no adjustment was necessary at December 31, 2010.
