SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Medina International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") and include the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of our two wholly owned subsidiaries, Medina Marine, Inc. and Harbor Guard Boats, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to; 1) Revenue recognition; 2) Allowance for doubtful accounts; 3) Inventory costs; 4) Asset impairments; 5) Depreciable lives of assets; 6) Income tax reserves and valuation allowances; 7) Fair value of stock options; 8) Allocation of direct and indirect cost of sales; 9) Contingent liabilities; and 10) Warranty liabilities. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, our accounting estimates require exercise of judgment. We base our estimates on historical experience, available market information, appropriate valuation methodologies, and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. We evaluate and update our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in our evaluation, when necessary. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Revenue Recognition is recognized when earned. The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied, are recorded as unearned revenue. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable The Company reviews its accounts receivables accounts periodically for collectability and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts and records bad debt expense when deemed necessary. |
Advertising costs | Advertising costs Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company recorded no advertisement costs in 2014 2013 |
Inventory | Inventory We carry our inventories at the lower of their cost or market value. Cost is determined using first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Market is determined based on net realizable value. We also provide due consideration to obsolescence, excess quantities, and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. |
Fixed Assets | Fixed Assets Capital assets are stated at cost. Equipment consisting of molds is estimated at the date of acquisition of Harbor Guard Boats. Depreciation of fixed assets is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives ( 3 7 Property and Equipment No. of Years Molds 7 Manufacturing Tools 5 Computers 3 Furniture 3 Manufacturing tool HGB -Used 3 Office Equipment 3 Office Phone 3 |
Long Lived Assets | Long Lived Assets Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"), now codified in ASC 350,which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business." The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with ASC 350. ASC 350 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes 2014 2013 Net operating Loss $ 7,717,793 $ 7,673,338 Deferred tax asset $ 2,701,227 $ 2,685,668 Valuation Allowance $ 2,701,227 $ 2,685,668 Change in valuation allowance $ 15,559 $ 831,127 Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income (loss). Valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. At April 30, 2014 and 2013 the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $ 7,717,793 7,673,338 2034 2,701,227 2,685,668 100 15,559 837,127 |
Comprehensive Loss | Comprehensive Loss Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain statements, however, require entities to report specific changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. |
Issuance of Shares for Service | Issuance of Shares for Service The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718, whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to non-employees are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments FASB ASC 825 requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for current assets and current liabilities qualifying, as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value. |
Foreign Currency Translations and Hedging | Foreign Currency Translations and Hedging The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations due to international trade. The management does not intend to enter into forward exchange contracts or any derivative financial investments for trading purposes. Management does not currently hedge foreign currency exposure. |
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share | Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with FASB ASC 105. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. |
Products and Services, Geographic Areas and Major Customers | Products and Services, Geographic Areas and Major Customers The Company earns revenue from the sale of recreational and commercial boats. The Company sells its products within United States and abroad. The Company does not separate sales activities into different operating segments and/or geographic areas. |
Recently issued accounting pronouncements | Recently issued accounting pronouncements In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 105, "Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles"). ASC 105 establishes the FASB ASC as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2011. We adopted the provisions of the standard on September 30, 2011, which did not have a material impact on our financial statements. There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued in 2011, none of which are expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, operations or cash flows. |
