Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements of the Company at September 30, 2018 , and for the three and six months then ended were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management all adjustments (consisting only of items of a normal, recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at September 30, 2018 , and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 , have been included. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 , included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 , as filed with the SEC. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES Nature of Operations The Company is a small-loan consumer finance company headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina that offers short-term small loans, medium-term larger loans, related credit insurance products and ancillary products and services to individuals who have limited access to other sources of consumer credit. In U.S. branches, the Company offers income tax return preparation services to its loan customers and other individuals. Seasonality The Company's loan volume and corresponding loans receivable follow seasonal trends. The Company's highest loan demand generally occurs from October through December, its third fiscal quarter. Loan demand is generally lowest and loan repayment highest from January to March, its fourth fiscal quarter. Loan volume and average balances remain relatively level during the remainder of the year. Consequently, the Company experiences significant seasonal fluctuations in its operating results and cash needs. Operating results for the Company's third fiscal quarter are generally lower than in other quarters and operating results for its fourth fiscal quarter are generally higher than in other quarters. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Scope of Modification Accounting In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. According to ASU 2017-09 an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: 1. The fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. 2. The vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. 3. The classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on its effective date, April 1, 2018. Management has reviewed the provisions of ASU 2017-09 and has determined that there is no financial statement impact during the period since this is a clarification to current guidance. The Company will apply the clarified guidance on any future change to terms and conditions of share-based payment awards. Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. The amendments clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: (a) identifying performance obligations; and (b) the licensing implementation guidance. The amendments do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in Topic 606. Public entities should apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein. The Company adopted ASU 2016-10 on its effective date, April 1, 2018. Management has concluded that the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, which updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. Public entities should apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein. The Company adopted ASU 2016-01 on its effective date, April 1, 2018. The Company's current disclosures around financial instruments reflect the instruments' estimated fair market value or exit price. Based on this, management has determined that the provisions of ASU 2016-01 had no financial statement impact during the period of adoption. Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements Topic 605 (Revenue Recognition), and most industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-20, ASU 2017-13, is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted this new guidance on its effective date, April 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method where prior periods are not restated. Management has evaluated revenue from contracts with customers and has concluded that the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, under the amendments in this Update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. ASU 2017-04 also eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Therefore, the same impairment assessment applies to all reporting units. The amendments in this update are effective for public entities who are SEC filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The amendment seeks to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. For public business entities the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this ASU could have a material impact on the provision for loan losses in the consolidated statements of operations and allowance for loan losses in the consolidated balance sheets. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The ASU 2016-02, as amended by ASU 2018-01, and ASU 2018-10, will require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on leases with terms greater than 12 months and to disclose information related to the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including various qualitative and quantitative requirements. The amendments of this ASU become effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements. We expect the standard to have an impact on our assets and liabilities for the addition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, but we do not expect it to have a material impact to our results of operations or liquidity. In July of 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases: Targeted Improvements, which allows for a transition option to adopt the standard on the date of initial application as opposed to the modified retrospective approach. We plan to make the election to adopt the standard using this transition relief. We reviewed all other newly issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they are either not applicable to our business or are not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE | FAIR VALUE Fair Value Disclosures The Company may carry certain financial instruments and derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are grouped in three levels. The levels prioritize the inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These levels are: • Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in market that are less active. • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions. The Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the periods reported consist of the following: cash and cash equivalents, loans receivable, and senior notes payable. Fair value approximates carrying value for all of these instruments. Loans receivable are originated at prevailing market rates and have an average life of approximately eight months . Given the short-term nature of these loans, they are continually repriced at current market rates. The Company’s revolving credit facility has a variable rate based on a margin over LIBOR and reprices with any changes in LIBOR. The Company also considers its creditworthiness in its determination of fair value. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of amounts the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Stock Option Plans The Company has a 2005 Stock Option Plan, a 2008 Stock Option Plan, a 2011 Stock Option Plan and a 2017 Stock Incentive Plan for the benefit of certain non-employee directors, officers, and key employees. Under these plans, a total of 4,950,000 shares of common stock have been authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to grants approved by the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors. Stock options granted under these plans have a maximum duration of 10 years , may be subject to certain vesting requirements, which are generally three to five years for officers, non-employee directors, and key employees, and are priced at the market value of the Company's common stock on the option's grant date. At September 30, 2018 , there were a total of 1,256,768 shares of common stock available for grant under the plans. Stock-based compensation is recognized as provided under FASB ASC Topic 718-10 and FASB ASC Topic 505-50. FASB ASC Topic 718-10 requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values. The Company has applied the Black-Scholes valuation model in determining the grant date fair value of the stock option awards. Compensation expense is recognized only for those options expected to vest. There were no options issued during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 . The weighted-average fair value at the grant date for options issued during the six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $49.67 and $22.79 , respectively. Fair value was estimated at grant date using the weighted-average assumptions listed below: Six months ended September 30, 2018 2017 Dividend Yield —% —% Expected Volatility 53.02% 50.33% Average risk-free rate 2.84% 1.85% Expected Life 5.0 years 5.0 years The expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock for a period approximating the expected life. The expected life represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding after the grant date. The risk-free rate reflects the interest rate at grant date on zero coupon U.S. governmental bonds having a remaining life similar to the expected option term. Option activity for the six months ended September 30, 2018 was as follows: Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term Aggregate Intrinsic Value Options outstanding, beginning of period 497,728 $ 70.69 Granted during period 300 102.22 Exercised during period (25,276 ) 71.82 Forfeited during period (6,445 ) 72.40 Expired during period (600 ) 76.51 Options outstanding, end of period 465,707 $ 70.62 5.5 years $ 20,370,380 Options exercisable, end of period 273,157 $ 72.24 4.2 years $ 11,506,364 The aggregate intrinsic value reflected in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing stock price on September 30, 2018 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of September 30, 2018 . This amount will change as the market price of the common stock changes. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was as follows: September 30, September 30, Three months ended $ 150,407 $ 451,718 Six months ended $ 1,091,547 $ 2,676,597 As of September 30, 2018 , total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock options amounted to approximately $1.3 million , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.8 years. Restricted Stock During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company granted 8,426 shares of restricted stock (which are equity classified) to certain executive officers, with a grant date weighted average fair value of $118.21 per share. One-third of these awards vest on each anniversary of the grant date over the next three years. During fiscal 2018, the Company granted 24,456 shares of restricted stock (which are equity classified) to certain executive officers, with a grant date weighted average fair value of $107.52 per share. One-third of these awards vest on each anniversary of the grant date over the three years following the grant date. During fiscal 2017, the Company granted 74,490 shares of restricted stock (which are equity classified) to certain executive officers, with a grant date weighted average fair value of $51.15 per share. One-third of these awards vest on each anniversary of the grant date over the three years following the grant date. Compensation expense related to restricted stock is based on the number of shares expected to vest and the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The Company recognized compensation expense of $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, and recognized compensation expense of $1.9 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, which is included as a component of general and administrative expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2018 , there was approximately $2.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over the next 2.1 years based on current estimates. A summary of the status of the Company’s restricted stock as of September 30, 2018 , and changes during the six months ended September 30, 2018 , are presented below: Shares Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date Outstanding at March 31, 2018 73,810 $ 65.74 Granted during the period 8,426 118.21 Vested during the period (2,712 ) 43.14 Forfeited during the period — — Outstanding at September 30, 2018 79,524 $ 72.07 Total share-based compensation included as a component of net income during the three and six -month periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was as follows: Three months ended September 30, Six months ended September 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Share-based compensation related to equity classified awards: Share-based compensation related to stock options $ 539,410 572,916 $ 1,063,637 $ 1,122,227 Share-based compensation related to restricted stock, net of adjustments and exclusive of cancellations 963,559 707,352 1,914,349 1,290,118 Total share-based compensation related to equity classified awards $ 1,502,969 1,280,268 $ 2,977,986 $ 2,412,345 |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS The Company evaluates each set of assets and activities it acquires to determine if the set meets the definition of a business according to FASB ASC Topic 805-10-55. Acquisitions meeting the definition of a business are accounted for as a business combination while all other acquisitions are accounted for as asset purchases. The following table sets forth the Company's acquisition activity for the six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 . Six months ended September 30, 2018 2017 Acquisitions: Number of branches acquired through business combinations 3 3 Number of loan portfolios acquired through asset purchases 28 24 Total acquisitions 31 27 Purchase price $ 12,015,872 $ 10,362,455 Tangible assets: Loans receivable, net 9,264,527 8,563,874 Property and equipment — 3,000 Total tangible assets 9,264,527 8,566,874 Excess of purchase prices over carrying value of net tangible assets $ 2,751,345 $ 1,795,581 Customer lists 2,596,345 1,660,581 Non-compete agreements 155,000 135,000 Goodwill — — Total intangible assets $ 2,751,345 $ 1,795,581 Acquisitions that are accounted for as business combinations typically result in one or more new branches. In such cases, the Company typically retains the existing employees and the branch location from the acquisition. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market values at the acquisition date. The remainder is allocated to goodwill. The following table describes the Company's acquisition activity for the six months ended September 30, 2018 . No. Acquiree Name Acquiree State(s) Date 1 Customer Credit Corporation (1 branch) LA 8/13/2018 2 Your Credit, Inc. (1 branch) WI 8/24/2018 3 Noble Finance Corporation (1 branch) ID 9/28/2018 Acquisitions that are accounted for as asset purchases are typically limited to acquisitions of loan portfolios. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market values at the acquisition date. In an asset purchase, no goodwill is recorded. The Company’s acquisitions include tangible assets (generally loans and furniture and equipment) and intangible assets (generally non-compete agreements, customer lists, and goodwill), both of which are recorded at their fair values, which are estimated pursuant to the processes described below. Acquired loans are valued at the net loan balance. Given the short-term nature of these loans, generally eight months , and that these loans are priced at current rates, management believes the net loan balances approximate their fair value. Furniture and equipment are valued at the specific purchase price as agreed to by both parties at the time of acquisition, which management believes approximates their fair values. Non-compete agreements are valued at the stated amount paid to the other party for these agreements, which the Company believes approximates the fair value. Customer lists are valued with a valuation model that utilizes the Company’s historical data to estimate the value of any acquired customer lists. Customer lists are allocated at a branch level and are evaluated for impairment at a branch level when a triggering event occurs in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360-10-05. If a triggering event occurs, the impairment loss to the customer list is generally the remaining unamortized customer list balance. In most acquisitions, the original fair value of the customer list allocated to a branch is less than $100,000, and management believes that in the event a triggering event were to occur, the impairment loss to an unamortized customer list would be immaterial. The results of all acquisitions have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements since the respective acquisition date. The pro forma impact of these branches as though they had been acquired at the beginning of the periods presented would not have a material effect on the results of operations as reported. |

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
DEBT | DEBT At September 30, 2018 the Company's notes payable consisted of a $480.0 million senior revolving credit facility with borrowings of $230.2 million outstanding and $300.0 thousand outstanding in standby letters of credit related to workers compensation. To the extent that the letters of credit are drawn upon, the disbursement will be funded by the credit facility. There are no amounts due related to the letters of credit as of September 30, 2018 , and they expire on December 31, 2018. The letters of credit are automatically extended for one year on the expiration date. Subject to a borrowing base formula, the Company may borrow at the rate of LIBOR plus 4.0% with a minimum rate of 5.0% . For the six months ended September 30, 2018 and fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 , the Company’s effective interest rate, including the commitment fee and amortization of debt issuance costs, was 6.8% and 6.0% , respectively, and the unused amount available under the revolver at September 30, 2018 was $249.5 million . The revolving credit facility has a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the commitment. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility mature on June 15, 2020 . Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral for borrowings under the revolving credit agreement. The revolving credit agreement contains events of default including, without limitation, nonpayment of principal, interest or other obligations, violation of covenants, misrepresentation, cross-default to other debt, bankruptcy and other insolvency events, judgments, certain ERISA events, actual or asserted invalidity of loan documentation, invalidity of subordination provisions of subordinated debt, certain changes of control of the Company, and the occurrence of certain regulatory events (including the entry of any stay, order, judgment, ruling or similar event related to the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ originating, holding, pledging, collecting or enforcing its eligible finance receivables that is material to the Company or any subsidiary) which remains unvacated, undischarged, unbonded or unstayed by appeal or otherwise for a period of 60 days from the date of its entry and is reasonably likely to cause a material adverse change. If it is determined that a violation of the FCPA or other laws has occurred, as described in Note 11, such violation may give rise to an event of default under the revolving credit agreement if such violation were to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) or if the amount of any settlement resulted in the Company failing to satisfy any financial covenants. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The TCJA included significant changes to existing tax law, including a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, a one-time repatriation tax on deferred foreign income (“Transition Tax”), and changes in deductions, credits and business-related exclusions. The permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% was effective January 1, 2018. When a federal tax rate change occurs during a fiscal year, the Internal Revenue Code requires taxpayers to compute a weighted daily average rate for the fiscal year of enactment. As a result, the Company calculated a U.S. federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 31.55% for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. The U.S. corporate federal statutory rate of 31.55% is the weighted daily average rate between the pre-enactment federal statutory rate of 35% and post-enactment federal statutory rate of 21%. The impact of changes in federal tax rates on deferred tax amounts and the effect of the Transition Tax are significant unusual or infrequent items which are recognized as discrete items in the Company’s income tax expense in the interim period in which the event occurs. The Company recorded a $10.5 million net impact of revaluing the U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company also recorded additional tax expense of $4.9 million related to the foreign "Transition Tax" during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company's former Mexican subsidiaries paid the U.S. Company a dividend of $17.1 million . The Company will no longer claim permanent reinvestment in the respective foreign jurisdiction. Because of the Transition Tax, the Company's tax basis was greater than its book basis. This difference was recognized during the first quarter when the foreign subsidiaries were marked as held for sale. The recognition of the basis difference created a capital loss that the Company does not believe will be recognized in the carryforward period; therefore, a full tax valuation allowance was recorded against the recognized loss. As of September 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 , the Company had $9.6 million and $8.8 million , respectively, of total gross unrecognized tax benefits including interest. Approximately $7.7 million and $6.9 million , respectively, represent the amount of net unrecognized tax benefits that are permanent in nature and, if recognized, would affect the annual effective tax rate. At September 30, 2018 , approximately $4.2 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits are expected to be resolved during the next twelve months through the expiration of the statute of limitations and settlement with taxing authorities. The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of September 30, 2018 , the Company had approximately $2.7 million accrued for gross interest, of which $0.9 million was a current period-end expense for the six months ended September 30, 2018 . The Company is subject to U.S. and Mexican income taxes, as well as various other state and local jurisdictions. With the exception of a few states, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014, although carryforward attributes that were generated prior to 2014 may still be adjusted upon examination by the taxing authorities if they either have been or will be used in a future period. The Company’s effective income tax rate for continuing operations decreased to 20.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 compared to 35.1% for the prior year quarter. The decrease is related to the reduction in the federal statutory tax rate that was fully integrated during the first quarter of fiscal 2019. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
LITIGATION | Mexico Investigation As previously disclosed, the Company has retained outside legal counsel and forensic accountants to conduct an investigation of its operations in Mexico, focusing on the legality under the FCPA, and certain local laws of certain payments related to loans, the maintenance of the Company’s books and records associated with such payments, and the treatment of compensation matters for certain employees. The investigation continues to address whether and to what extent improper payments, which may violate the FCPA and other local laws, were made approximately between 2010 and 2017 by or on behalf of WAC de Mexico, to government officials in Mexico relating to loans made to unionized employees. The Company voluntarily contacted the SEC and the DOJ in June 2017 to advise both agencies that an internal investigation was underway and that the Company intended to cooperate with both agencies. The Company has and will continue to cooperate with both agencies. The SEC has issued a formal order of investigation. A conclusion cannot be drawn at this time as to what potential remedies these agencies may seek. The Company cannot determine at this time the ultimate effect that the investigation or any remedial measures will have on its financial condition or results of operations. If violations of the FCPA or other local laws occurred, the Company could be subject to fines, civil and criminal penalties, equitable remedies, including profit disgorgement and related interest, and injunctive relief. In addition, any disposition of these matters could result in modifications to our business practices and compliance programs. Any disposition could also potentially require that a monitor be appointed to review future business practices with the goal of ensuring compliance with the FCPA and other applicable laws. The Company could also face fines, sanctions, and other penalties from authorities in Mexico, as well as third-party claims by shareholders and/or other stakeholders of the Company. In addition, disclosure of the investigation or its ultimate disposition could adversely affect the Company’s reputation and its ability to obtain new business or retain existing business from its current customers and potential customers, to attract and retain employees, and to access the capital markets. If it is determined that a violation of the FCPA has occurred, such violation may give rise to an event of default under the Company’s credit agreement if such violation were to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, properties, assets, or condition (financial or otherwise) or if the amount of any settlement, penalties, fines or other payments resulted in the Company failing to satisfy any financial covenants. Additional potential FCPA violations or violations of other laws or regulations may be uncovered through the investigation. In addition to the ultimate liability for disgorgement and related interest, the Company believes that it could be further liable for fines and penalties. The Company is continuing its discussions with the DOJ and SEC regarding the matters under investigation, but the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of any fine or penalty that it may have to pay as a part of any possible settlement or assess the potential liability that might be incurred if a settlement is not reached and the government were to litigate the matter. As such, based on the information available at this time, any additional liability related to this matter is not reasonably estimable. The Company will continue to evaluate the amount of its liability pending final resolution of the investigation and any related discussions with the government. Further, under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, we are obligated to indemnify the purchasers for claims and liabilities relating to certain investigations of our Mexico operating segment, the Company, and its affiliates by the DOJ or the SEC that commenced prior to July 1, 2018. Any such indemnification claims could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, including liquidity, and results of operations. General In addition, from time to time the Company is involved in routine litigation matters relating to claims arising out of its operations in the normal course of business, including matters in which damages in various amounts are claimed. Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation, government actions and other legal proceedings is inherently difficult and requires an extensive degree of judgment, particularly where the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages, may involve fines, penalties or damages that are discretionary in amount, involve a large number of claimants or significant discretion by regulatory authorities, represent a change in regulatory policy or interpretation, present novel legal theories, are in the early stages of the proceedings, are subject to appeal or could result in a change in business practices. In addition, because most legal proceedings are resolved over extended periods of time, potential losses are subject to change due to, among other things, new developments, changes in legal strategy, the outcome of intermediate procedural and substantive rulings and other parties’ settlement posture and their evaluation of the strength or weakness of their case against us. For these reasons, we are currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or a range of possible losses resulting from, the matters described above. Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that any reasonably possible losses arising from currently pending legal matters will be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in such matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period. |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events [Text Block] | NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Long-term Incentive Program On October 15, 2018, the Compensation Committee and Board approved and adopted a new long-term incentive program that seeks to motivate and reward certain employees and to align management’s interest with shareholders by focusing executives on the achievement of long-term results. We expect that this program will encourage intra- and inter-department asset allocation decisions for the long-term growth of the Company’s revenue and earnings and foster increased efficiency throughout the Company. The program is comprised of four components: Service Options, Performance Options, Restricted Stock, Performance Shares. Also, on October 15, 2018, pursuant to the long-term incentive program, the Compensation Committee approved certain grants of Service Options, Performance Options, Restricted Stock and Performance Shares under the World Acceptance Corporation 2011 Stock Option Plan and the World Acceptance Corporation 2017 Stock Incentive Plan to certain employees, including employee directors, vice presidents of operations, senior vice presidents, and the Company's executive officers. Under the long-term incentive program, up to 100% of the shares of restricted stock subject to the Performance Shares shall vest, if at all, based on the achievement of two, trailing earnings per share performance targets established by the Compensation Committee that are based on earnings per share (measured at the end of each calendar quarter, commencing with the calendar quarter ending September 30, 2019) for the previous four calendar quarters. The Performance Shares are eligible to vest over the Performance Share Measurement Period and subject to each respective employee’s continued employment at the Company through the last day of the applicable Performance Share Measurement Period (or as otherwise provided under the terms of the applicable award agreement or applicable employment agreement). A total of 351,000 Performance Shares were granted. The Performance Share performance targets are set forth below. Trailing 4-Quarter EPS Targets for September 30, 2018 through March 31, 2025 Restricted Stock Eligible for Vesting (Percentage of Award) $16.35 40% $20.45 60% The Restricted Stock awards will vest in six equal annual installments, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to each respective employee’s continued employment at the Company through each applicable vesting date or otherwise provided under the terms of the applicable award agreement or applicable employment agreement. A total of 351,000 Restricted Stock awards were granted. The Service Options will vest in six equal annual installments, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to each respective employee’s continued employment at the Company through each applicable vesting date or otherwise provided under the terms of the applicable award agreement or applicable employment agreement. The option price is equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date and the Service Options shall have a 10-year term. A total of 160,500 Service Options were granted. The Performance Options shall fully vest if the Company attains the trailing earnings per share target over four consecutive calendar quarters occurring between September 30, 2018 and March 31, 2025 described below. Such performance target was established by the Compensation Committee and will be measured at the end of each calendar quarter commencing on September 30, 2019. The Performance Options are eligible to vest over the Option Measurement Period, subject to each respective employee’s continued employment at the Company through the last day of the Option Measurement Period or as otherwise provided under the terms of the applicable award agreement or applicable employment agreement. The option price is equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date and the Performance Options shall have a 10-year term. A total of 115,830 Performance Options were granted. The Performance Option performance target is set forth below. Trailing 4-Quarter EPS Targets for September 30, 2018 through March 31, 2025 Options Eligible for Vesting (Percentage of Award) $25.30 100% Director Equity Grants On October 15, 2018, the Compensation Committee and Board approved the following equity awards to each of Messrs. Ken R. Bramlett, Jr., Charles D. Way and Darrell E. Whitaker: (i) 6,000 non-qualified stock options, and (ii) 4,998 shares of restricted stock. Both the non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards shall vest and become exercisable in six equal annual increments beginning on October 15, 2019, the vesting of which is contingent upon continued service on the Board until the applicable vesting date. Grant-related Expense The Company expects to recognize the following estimated equity-based compensation expense both for the awards made under the long-term incentive program (as described above) and for the director equity awards as follows (in millions): FY2019 FY2020 FY2021 FY2022 FY2023 FY2024 FY2025 Total Service-based Options $ 1.8 $ 3.2 $ 1.9 $ 1.3 $ 0.8 $ 0.4 $ 0.1 $ 9.5 Restricted stock 6.9 12.2 7.5 4.9 3.1 1.7 0.6 36.9 Total service-based expense $ 8.7 $ 15.4 $ 9.4 $ 6.2 $ 3.9 $ 2.1 $ 0.7 $ 46.4 Performance-based Options $ 0.5 $ 1.1 $ 1.1 $ 1.1 $ 1.1 $ 1.1 $ — $ 6.0 Restricted Stock 4.1 8.9 8.8 8.8 4.8 — — 35.4 Total performance-based expense $ 4.6 $ 10.0 $ 9.9 $ 9.9 $ 5.9 $ 1.1 $ — $ 41.4 Grand total expense $ 13.3 $ 25.4 $ 19.3 $ 16.1 $ 9.8 $ 3.2 $ 0.7 $ 87.8 The above estimates are subject to a number of factors which may cause actual equity-based compensation expense or future estimates to differ significantly. In particular, the performance-based awards are subject to the achievement of certain performance targets as described above. Both the service-based and performance-based awards are subject to continued service with the Company. Management is not aware of any other significant events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date that would have a material effect on the financial statements thereby requiring adjustment or disclosure. |

Acquisition activity | ACQUISITIONS The Company evaluates each set of assets and activities it acquires to determine if the set meets the definition of a business according to FASB ASC Topic 805-10-55. Acquisitions meeting the definition of a business are accounted for as a business combination while all other acquisitions are accounted for as asset purchases. The following table sets forth the Company's acquisition activity for the six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 . Six months ended September 30, 2018 2017 Acquisitions: Number of branches acquired through business combinations 3 3 Number of loan portfolios acquired through asset purchases 28 24 Total acquisitions 31 27 Purchase price $ 12,015,872 $ 10,362,455 Tangible assets: Loans receivable, net 9,264,527 8,563,874 Property and equipment — 3,000 Total tangible assets 9,264,527 8,566,874 Excess of purchase prices over carrying value of net tangible assets $ 2,751,345 $ 1,795,581 Customer lists 2,596,345 1,660,581 Non-compete agreements 155,000 135,000 Goodwill — — Total intangible assets $ 2,751,345 $ 1,795,581 Acquisitions that are accounted for as business combinations typically result in one or more new branches. In such cases, the Company typically retains the existing employees and the branch location from the acquisition. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market values at the acquisition date. The remainder is allocated to goodwill. The following table describes the Company's acquisition activity for the six months ended September 30, 2018 . No. Acquiree Name Acquiree State(s) Date 1 Customer Credit Corporation (1 branch) LA 8/13/2018 2 Your Credit, Inc. (1 branch) WI 8/24/2018 3 Noble Finance Corporation (1 branch) ID 9/28/2018 Acquisitions that are accounted for as asset purchases are typically limited to acquisitions of loan portfolios. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market values at the acquisition date. In an asset purchase, no goodwill is recorded. The Company’s acquisitions include tangible assets (generally loans and furniture and equipment) and intangible assets (generally non-compete agreements, customer lists, and goodwill), both of which are recorded at their fair values, which are estimated pursuant to the processes described below. Acquired loans are valued at the net loan balance. Given the short-term nature of these loans, generally eight months , and that these loans are priced at current rates, management believes the net loan balances approximate their fair value. Furniture and equipment are valued at the specific purchase price as agreed to by both parties at the time of acquisition, which management believes approximates their fair values. Non-compete agreements are valued at the stated amount paid to the other party for these agreements, which the Company believes approximates the fair value. Customer lists are valued with a valuation model that utilizes the Company’s historical data to estimate the value of any acquired customer lists. Customer lists are allocated at a branch level and are evaluated for impairment at a branch level when a triggering event occurs in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360-10-05. If a triggering event occurs, the impairment loss to the customer list is generally the remaining unamortized customer list balance. In most acquisitions, the original fair value of the customer list allocated to a branch is less than $100,000, and management believes that in the event a triggering event were to occur, the impairment loss to an unamortized customer list would be immaterial. The results of all acquisitions have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements since the respective acquisition date. The pro forma impact of these branches as though they had been acquired at the beginning of the periods presented would not have a material effect on the results of operations as reported. |
