inability to efficiently manage our operations;

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
Musician’s Exchange
2858 Erie St.
San Diego, California 92117

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Musician’s Exchange as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009, from inception (February 4, 2008) to December 31, 2008 and from inception (February 4, 2008) to December 31, 2009.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's Management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Musician’s Exchange as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the financial statements, the Company has had difficulty in generating sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations, and is dependent on management's ability to develop profitable operations, these factors, among others raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regards to these matters is also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MUSICIAN’S EXCHANGE, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization
The Company was incorporated on February 4, 2008 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Musician’s Exchange, Inc. The Company developed its business plan over the period commencing with February 4, 2008 and ending on December 31, 2009.  In February of 2008, the Company created its initial website and posted the website to the Internet.
 
The Company has not commenced significant operations and, in accordance with ASC Topic 915, the Company is considered a development stage company.
 
Nature of operations
Musician’s Exchange is developing an Internet destination and marketplace in the United States and potentially, globally, for musicians. Musician’s Exchange is designed to be the ultimate website for musicians. It will be a resource center with links to major and boutique musical companies. The Company’s site will also offer musicians a place to list gear they might have for sale or trade. It will charge a small fee to list items. This fee will include the posting of pictures and an item description, both provided by the seller. These items will be listed until the seller requests to have the items removed. The Company will also have a section dedicated to band listings. Here bands can submit a brief description of their style or type of music, as well as a link to their website. Our webmaster will collect these submissions and post them according to category. Musician’s Exchange will charge a small one-time fee for this service. Musician’s Exchange will also allow outside companies to advertise on our website. Musical companies and musical service organizations can submit banners to our webmaster for posting on different sections of our website. The Company will base the charge for this service on size as well as location of where the banner is listed.
 This site can be marketed by word of mouth, the posting of flyers at venues and stores as well as the distribution of business cards. We can also direct market to existing band sites. Musician’s Exchange has also developed a My Space page for additional networking.
 The Company intends to utilize the power of the Internet to aggregate in a single location a network of industry participants and a comprehensive database of musician’s information to create an open marketplace that is local, regional, national, and global in nature. Because we commenced operations in February of 2008, the Company currently has minimal listings. By providing this digital marketplace, we intend to bring musicians, private sellers and other industry participants, such as vendors of musical products and services and national advertisers, together with purchase-minded consumers at the moment when these consumers are directly engaged in a search for musical products and services. The Company believes that upon completion of our operating model, it will provide significant benefits to musicians, dealers, private sellers and other industry participants by enabling them to advertise interact and transact with a significant online consumer audience related to the musical world. The Company intends to provide significant benefits to consumers by giving them the tools they need to effectively navigate a large database of musical products and services oriented to any aspect of the music industry, thereby optimizing their ability to find musically oriented product or service of their choice in their chosen geographical area.

MUSICIAN’S EXCHANGE, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The Company’s business model is built on multiple revenue streams from a variety of industry participants interested in marketing their services to our consumer audience. It intends to generate revenues primarily from listing fees, and fees for consumer and dealer services. In the future, we also intend to generate revenues from facilitating electronic commerce ("e-commerce") transactions, online used musical instruments auction-style trading services and national advertising.

Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.

Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value).

Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenues are anticipated to be derived from multiple sources. Dealer services revenues are to be derived from a range of promotional services, including banner advertising, inventory pages, tiles, enhanced listings and links to the dealer's own Web site. Dealers will also be able to purchase a stand-alone Web site with their own Internet address and searchable used musical equipment inventory for an initial non-refundable set-up fee plus a monthly maintenance fee. Revenues from these services will be recognized ratably over the period in which the service is provided. The set-up fees from dealer contracts will be recognized ratably over the period in which the service is provided, generally a year. Advertising revenues are anticipated to be generated from short-term contracts in which the Company typically guarantees for a fixed fee a minimum number of impressions, or times that an advertisement appears in pages viewed by the users. These revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, provided that the amount recognized does not exceed the amount that would be recognized based upon actual impressions delivered. E-commerce revenues are derived from musical vendors such as warranty and finance companies and musical aftermarket retailers who will be able to market their services on the Company's Web site or integrate their product with the Company's Web site. Such revenues will generally be derived from specific traffic referrals or transaction leads that originate on the Company's Web site and would be recognized as such referrals and leads are directed to the vendor's product.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are anticipated to be expensed as incurred; however there were no advertising costs included in general and administrative expenses for the period of Inception (February 4, 2008) to December 31, 2008 and for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Fair value of financial instruments
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2009 and 2008. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Stock-based compensation
The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718 which requires the Company to recognize expenses related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards.  This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.

Earnings per share
The Company follows ASC Topic 260 to account for the earnings per share. Basic earning per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earning per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation.

Income taxes
The Company follows ASC Topic 740 for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.
 
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. ASC Topic 740 only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding, or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, therefore this standard has not had a material affect on the Company.
The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to its total unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months. 
The Company classifies tax-related penalties and net interest as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, no income tax expense has been incurred.

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 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 significantly from those estimates.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company completed its offering and issued a total of 550,000 shares of common stock to its investors.  As a result, a shareholder who owned 12% of the Company before the offering was reduced to a 7% ownership stake in the Company.  In the prior financial statements, all transactions with this shareholder and its related entities were originally presented as related parties.  However, due to the current ownership of 7% all related party disclosures were reclassified to unrelated third parties.
Recent pronouncements
Below is a listing of the most recent accounting standards and their effect on the Company.
In January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-03 (ASU 2010-03), Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas (Topic 932): Oil and Gas Reserve Estimation and Disclosures.  This amendment to Topic 932 has improved the reserve estimation and disclosure requirements by (1) updating the reserve estimation requirements for changes in practice and technology that have occurred over the last several decades and (2) expanding the disclosure requirements for equity method investments.  This is effective for annual reporting periods ending on or after December 31, 2009.  However, an entity that becomes subject to the disclosures because of the change to the definition oil- and gas- producing activities may elect to provide those disclosures in annual periods beginning after December 31, 2009.  Early adoption is not permitted.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-03 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.  This update addressed the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than a combined unit and will be separated in more circumstances under existing US GAAP.  This amendment has eliminated that residual method of allocation.  Effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As noted above, the Company is in the development stage and, accordingly, has not yet generated revenues from operations. Since its inception, the Company has been engaged substantially in financing activities and developing its business plan and incurring start up costs and expenses. As a result, the Company incurred accumulated net losses from Inception (February 4, 2008) through the period ended December 31, 2009 of ($82,427). In addition, the Company’s development activities since inception have been financially sustained through equity financing.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital from the sale of common stock and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $28,849 and $11,197, respectively, which will begin to expire 2028.  In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.  As a result, management determined it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and maintained a full valuation allowance.

Reconciliation between the statutory rate and the effective tax rate is as follows at December 31, 2009 and 2008:
