Great Wall Food and Beverage Corporation
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business and Organization
- -------------------------
Great Wall Food and Beverage Corporation (the "Company"), a development stage
company, was incorporated in the State of Florida on August 1, 1980 as Ronnie
Interior Designs, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring or merging with an existing
operating company.
On October 14, 1997, Ronnie Interior Designs, Inc. changed its name to Ronnie
Systems, Inc.
On March 13, 1998, the Company amended and restated its articles of
incorporation and changed its name to Great Wall Food and Beverage Corporation.
Development Stage
- -----------------
The Company has operated as a development stage enterprise since its inception
by devoting substantially all its efforts to the ongoing development of the
Company.
Accounting Method
- -----------------
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting. The Company has elected a calendar year end of December 31.
Loss per Share
- --------------
The computation of loss per share of common stock is based upon the weighted
average common shares outstanding during each period.
Foreign Currency Translation
- ----------------------------
During 1999 the Company opened a bank account denominated in a foreign currency
which is used to pay for some operational expenses. The bank account is
translated using rates of exchange at March 31, 2000; expenses are translated at
weighted average exchange rates in effect during the year. The cumulative effect
resulting from such translation is recorded as remeasurement loss in the
financial statements.
NOTE 2 - NOTE RECEIVABLE
The note receivable represents deposits made by the Company on equipment to be
purchased which was not completed. The issuer has negotiated a written agreement
on the refund of the deposit in five monthly payments. The final payment is due
September 1, 2000.
7
<PAGE>
NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY
The Company had the following classes of capital stock:
Series A Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value; authorized 20,000,000 shares;
issued and outstanding -0- shares.
Common Stock, $0.0001 par value; authorized 80,000,000 shares; Issued and
outstanding 3,676,664 shares.
NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted
accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the
realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of
business. However, the Company has no current source of revenue. Without
realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to
continue as a going concern. It is management's intention to seek additional
capital through a merger with an existing operating company and raising capital.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company neither owns or leases any real property. The officers and directors
of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future,
become involved in other business opportunities.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION
- --------------------------
The Issuer has completed the registration of its Common Stock under Section
12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act"". It is continuing
its efforts to find a new business opportunity. The Issuer will seek and attempt
to enter into a business combination of acquisition of assets by which it will
become engaged in an active business venture. It is likely that if such a
transaction is made it will involve control of the Issuer being acquired by the
other party to the transaction.
There are no present arrangements for,, or ongoing negotiations with
respect to, such a business combination with the Issuer. The Issuer has no
present knowledge of any specific candidate for a business combination. Issuer's
management believes that it has sufficient funds to pursue its search for a
potential business combination for at least the period through September of
2000. It is not presently possible to predict if any business combination
entered into by the Issuer during that period will require the raising of
additional capital.
The Issuer has entered into a written agreement under which the equipment
manufacturer with whom the Issuer had made a $100,000 advance deposit has agreed
to return the deposit in five monthly installments of $20,000 of the first day
of each month commencing May 1, 2000. The payment due on May 1, 2000 has been
made. A copy of this agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 12(d).
