+Added: We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
+Added: Class A Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption
+Added: We account for our Class A common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Shares of Class A common stock
+Added: subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value.
+Added: Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or
+Added: subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within our control) is classified as temporary equity.
+Added: At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity.
+Added: Our Class A common stock features certain
+Added: redemption rights that are considered to be outside of our control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events.
+Added: Accordingly, shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity, outside of the
+Added: stockholders’ equity section of our balance sheet.

+Added: Accordingly, we classify the warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjust the warrants to fair value at each reporting period.

+Added: The fair value of the warrants issued in the IPO has been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology as of the date of the IPO and such warrants’ quoted market price as of
+Added: March 31, 2021.
+Added: The private placement warrants were valued using a Modified Black Scholes Option Pricing Model.
+Added: Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
+Added: We apply the two-class method in calculating earnings per share.
+Added: Net income per common share, basic and diluted for Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the interest income
+Added: earned on the Trust Account, net of applicable franchise and income taxes, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding for the period.
+Added: Net loss per common share, basic and diluted for Class B non-redeemable common
+Added: stock is calculated by dividing the net income, less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, by the weighted average number of Class B non-redeemable common stock outstanding for the period presented.
