Critical Accounting Policies

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has issued disclosure guidance for “Critical Accounting Policies.” The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

 

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its financial statements, the preparation of which takes into account estimates based on judgments and assumptions that affect certain amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates. The accounting policies and estimates used and outlined in Note 1 to the Company’s financial statements, which are presented elsewhere in this Form 10-K, have been applied consistently as at April 30, 20142017 and 2015,2018, and for the years ended April 30, 20142017 and 2015.2018. The Company’s representatives who are involved in the preparation of its financial statements and this report believe that the following accounting policies represent the Company’s critical accounting policies:

-6-

 

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets: The Company periodically assesses the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. When the Company determines that the carrying value of long-lived assets may be impaired, the measurement of any impairment is based on a projected discounted cash flows method. While the Company believes that this method is reasonable, different assumptions regarding such cash flows may significantly affect the measurement of impairment.

 

Revenue Recognition: Rental income is recognized when it becomes receivable under the terms of each lease. Hardware sales are recognized upon receipt of payment from customers.

 


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations

 

The Company is not a party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 8.FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

 

The Company’s financial statements and supplementary financial schedules are attached as an exhibit to this report. See Items 14(a) and 14(b).

 

Management’s Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Our management is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and related information that are presented in this report. The consolidated financial statements, which include amounts based on management’s estimates and judgments, have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company designs and maintains accounting and internal control systems to provide reasonable assurance at reasonable cost that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that the financial records are reliable for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets.

ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In connection with the filing of this Form 10-K, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2015.2018. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Executive Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 30, 2015.2018.

 

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company designs and maintains accounting and internal control systems to provide reasonable assurance at reasonable cost that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that the financial records are reliable for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. These systems are augmented by written policies, an organizational structure providing division of responsibilities and careful selection and training of qualified personnel.

 

Management (with the participation of the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer) has evaluated the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2015,2018, based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission.

 

There are limitations inherent in any internal control, such as the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and may not prevent or detect misstatements. As conditions change over time, so too may the effectiveness of internal controls. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of a Company's financial reporting.

 

-8-

Based on its assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of April 30, 2015.2018.

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2015.2018.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


APRIL 30, 20152018 AND 20142017

 

NOTE A - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

This summary of accounting policies for Miller Industries Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in preparation of the financial statements.

 

1.Nature of Operations -

 

Miller Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation, currently and since August 1991, has been engaged in the ownership and management of 98,000 square feet of offices and warehouse located in Miami, Florida. During August 1991, the Company discontinued its operations of manufacturing of aluminum windows and doors pursuant to a plan of reorganization.

 

2.Real Property-

 

Property is carried at cost. The Company calculates depreciation under the straight-line method at annual rates based upon the estimated service lives of each type of asset. These service lives are generally as follows:

 

Building and Improvements10 to 30 years
Machinery and Equipment7 years
Furniture and Fixtures7 years

 

Real property and equipment, with an original cost of approximately $ 745,000, have been fully depreciated at April 30, 2015.2018.

 

3.Deferred Costs-

 

Deferred lease incentive and loan costs are carried at cost. The Company amortizes these assets on a straight-line basis up to 10 years.

 

4.Income Taxes-

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax base of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to be reversed.

 

The Company uses a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% (fifty percent) likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At April 30, 20142016 and 2015,2018, respectively, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

5.Earnings Per Share-

 

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including stock options or warrants, using the treasury stock method (by using the average stock price for the period to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants). Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

6.Cash and Cash Equivalents-

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At April 30, 2015,2018, and 20142017 the Company’s uninsured bank balances approximated $1,415,000$1,727,000 and $1,263,000$1,758,000 respectively.

debt approximate fair value.

 

8.Concentrations-

 

The Company is subject to certain risk arising from the concentration of its tenant income from entities that comprise 10% or more of the Company’s revenue. Tenant “A” 43%48% of Revenue. Tenant “B” 39%29% of Revenue. Tenant “C” 18%22% of Revenue.

The Company determines its liability on a site-by-site basis and records a liability at the time when it is probable and can be reasonably estimated.

 

11.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 Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates included in the preparation of the financial statements are related to income taxes, asset lives, accruals and valuation allowances.

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income established standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. The company does not have any comprehensive income for fiscal 20152016 and 2014.2015.

 

13.Long-Lived Assets-

 

Under ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, The Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets (including property, equipment and intangible assets) when events or circumstances warrant such a review. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. The respective fair values of the Company’s long-lived assets exceeded their carrying amounts at April 30, 20152018 and April 30, 2014.2017.

15.Derivative Instruments-

 

Under ASC 815, Derivative and Hedging, the Company will be required to recognize all derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings.

22.Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures-

 

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, applies whenever other standards require assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. ASC 820 established a hierarchy that prioritizes the information used in developing fair value estimates.

 

The levels of fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

·Level 1 inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access;

·Level 2 inputs utilize other-than-quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals; and

·Level 3 inputs are unobservable and are typically based on our own assumptions, including situations where there is little, if any, market activity.

 

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the Company categorizes such financial asset or liability based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

 

F-9

Miller Industries, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that are classified within the Level 3 category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for assets within the Level 3 category can include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. The Company has no instruments that require additional disclosure.

 

23.Fair Value Option for Financial Instruments-

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, receivables, accounts payable and mortgage payable. Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement s and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are determined based upon Level “1” and Level “2” inputs.

NOTE C - Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was signed into law. The Act includes a number of changes to the tax code, most notably a reduction of the U.S. corporate income tax rate from a graduated set of rates with a maximum of 35% to a flat rate of 21% effective January 1, 2018.

Additionally, the Act introduces many changes that impact corporations, some of which is the net operating loss deduction subject to annual limitations, interest expense deduction subject to annual limitations, elimination of the alternative minimum tax and the immediate expense of the full cost of qualified property. GAAP requires companies to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment. Therefore the net deferred tax assets were reduced by $10,760 with a corresponding adjustment to current period tax expense for the remeasurement of the Company’s U.S. deferred tax assets.

 

The provision (benefit) for income taxes consists of the following:

 

 2015  2014  2017  2018 
          
Current $25,258  $2,537  $77,047  $54,630 
Deferred  552   (383)  1,332   13,663 
Tax Benefit of Net Operating Loss Carryforward  ----   ---- 
Deferred Tax Adjustment and Changes to Valuation Allowance  

----

   

----

 
                
Total $25,810  $2,154  $78,379  $68,293 

 

Deferred income taxes arise primarily due to temporary differences in recognizing certain revenues and expenses for tax purposes, the required use of extended lives for calculation of depreciation for tax purposes.

 

The components of the net deferred tax asset at April 30, 20152018 and 20142017 are as follows:

 

 2015  2014  2017  2018 
Properties and Equipment principally due to                
Depreciation $39,824  $40,376  $39,084  $25,421 
                
Provision for Bad Debts       
        
Total gross deferred tax assets $39,824  $40,376  $39,084  $25,421 
Less: Valuation allowance  ---   ---       
Net Deferred Tax Asset $39,824  $40,376  $39,084  $25,421 

 

A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level which, more likely than not, will be realized. The net deferred assets reflect management’s assessment of the amount which will be realized from future taxable earnings or alternative tax strategies.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition in GAAP when it becomes effective. In July, 2015, the FASB approved a one year deferral that changed the effective date to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We do not expect the updated accounting guidance to materially impact the recognition of revenue in our financial statements.

Leases

On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 which relates to the accounting for leasing transactions. This standard requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by the leases with terms of more than 12 months. In addition, this standard requires both lessees and lessors to disclose certain key information about lease transactions. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similarly to existing guidance for operating leases today. The Company is not a lessee at this time, but is the lessor of a Warehouse Building and will be obligated to provide its tenants with certain key information about lease transactions. This ASU is effective for the interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2019. We do not expect this standard to have an effect on our financial statements.

Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments

On August 26, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2015, which clarifies and provides specific guidance on eight cash flow classification issues with an objective to reduce the current diversity in practice. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We do not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2016-2015 will have material impact to our financial statements.

Restricted Cash

On November 17, 2016, the FASB issued 2016-18, which requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash equivalents. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. This standard addresses presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flow only and will have no effect on our reported financial condition or results of operations.

Other Recently Issued Standards

Management believes other recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.
