NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998 and 1997
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
Rotman Auction, Inc. (the "Company") is a full-service consignment
auction house located in Worcester, Massachusetts. The Company provides
a full range of services to sellers and buyers including live online
bidding, consignment services, authentication of merchandise, digital
photography as well as purchases and sales of authentic memorabilia.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, using the first-in, first-out
(FIFO) method, or market.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed
using the double declining balance method over the estimated useful life
of 5 years.
Expenditures for additions, improvements and major renewals are
capitalized while those for repairs and maintenance are charged to
expense as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
The Company sells merchandise from vendors under one of two types of
sales transactions. The Company either purchases merchandise and sells
it to customers or sells merchandise to customers under consignment-type
revenue sharing agreements with vendors.
For sales of merchandise owned and warehoused by the Company, the
Company is responsible for conducting the auction, billing the customer,
shipping the merchandise to the customer, processing merchandise returns
and collecting accounts receivable. The Company recognizes the gross
sales amount as revenue upon shipment of the merchandise.
For sales of merchandise under consignment-type revenue sharing
agreements, the Company takes physical possession of the merchandise,
but is not obligated to and does not take title to or ownership of the
merchandise. When an auction is completed, consigned merchandise which
has been sold is shipped upon receipt of payment. The Company recognizes
the net commission and service revenues relating to the consigned
merchandise upon receipt of the gross sales proceeds. The Company then
releases the net sales proceeds to the Consignor. Consignors realized
approximately $680,000 and $563,000 in net sales proceeds from the
Company's auctions for years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (concluded)
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred.
Income Taxes
The shareholder has elected to have the corporation taxed as an S
Corporation. Consequently, the Company does not pay corporate income
taxes. Instead, the shareholder is liable for individual income taxes on
the Company's taxable income. Accordingly, there is no provision for
income taxes in the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on
management's knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in
the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.
2. DUE FROM AFFILIATES
Due from affiliates consists of non-interest bearing cash advances to
entities in which the Company's shareholder has an equity interest.
Amounts outstanding at December 31, 1998 and 1997 are as follows:
