SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”); however, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars (“USD”). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to make the financial statements not misleading. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements is in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Basis of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Joway Health, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and controlled VIEs. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810 “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), the Company is required to include in its consolidated financial statements the financial statements of its variable interest entities (“VIEs”). ASC 810 requires a VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns. VIEs are those entities in which a company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risk of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the company is the primary beneficiary of the entity. Based on the various Contractual Agreements, the Company is able to exercise control over the VIEs, and to obtain the full economic benefits. The terms of the exclusive option agreement are currently exercisable and legally enforceable under PRC laws and regulations. The minimum amount of consideration permitted by the applicable PRC law to exercise the option does not represent a financial barrier or disincentive for the Company to exercise its rights under the exclusive option agreement. A simple majority vote of the Company’s board of directors is required to pass a resolution to exercise its rights under the exclusive option agreement, for which consent of the shareholder of VIEs is not required. Therefore, this gives the Company the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact VIEs’ economic performance. The Company’s ability to exercise effective control, together with the consulting service agreements and the equity pledge agreements, give the Company the rights to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from VIEs in consideration for the services provided by its wholly owned subsidiaries in China. Accordingly, as the primary beneficiary of VIEs and in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Joway Shengshi, Joway Technology, Joway Decoration, and Shengtang Trading, as VIEs of Junhe Consulting, has been consolidated in the Company’s financial statements. Sales from Joway Shengshi, Joway Technology, Joway Decoration, and Shengtang Trading are included in the Company’s total sales, their incomes or losses from operations are consolidated with the Company’s, and the Company’s net income or loss includes net income or loss from Joway Shengshi, Joway Technology, Joway Decoration, and Shengtang Trading.. Foreign Currency Translation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in USD. The functional currency of the Company is RMB. The consolidated financial statements are translated into USD from RMB at period-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Equity accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the equity transactions occurred. The resulting transaction adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net income. December 31, 2015 2014 Year ended RMB: USD Exchange rate 6.4927 6.1535 Average yearly RMB: USD Exchange rate 6.2401 6.14821 The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into USD at the rates used in translation. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 foreign currency translation adjustments of $(385,036) and $(57,157) respectively, have been reported as comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements. Other Comprehensive Income Other comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during the period from transactions and other events, excluding the changes resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. Substantially all of the Company’s cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC, and no deposits are covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 157 Fair Value Measurements) establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as the following: ● Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; ● Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and ● Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, other receivable, accounts payable, other payable, and amounts due from related parties generally approximate their fair market values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments” allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments. Cash For financial reporting purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at any point during the period of the financial statements presented. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. On a periodic basis, the Company reviews the composition of the accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these allowances. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, based on a review of its outstanding balances, the Company allowance for doubtful accounts had a zero balance, respectively. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, as determined by the specific identification method on contract level (for each individual contract, inventories cost flow is determined by weighted-average method), or the net realizable value, which is determined on selling prices less any further costs expected to be incurred for completion and disposal. The Company regularly evaluates the composition of its inventories to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventories to determine whether valuation allowance is required. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded $127,587 and $142,012 for inventory valuation allowance, respectively. Advances to suppliers Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for inventory items or construction in progress. The advance payments are meant to ensure preferential pricing and delivery. The amounts advanced under such arrangements totaled $90,542 and $135,883 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Investments Investment in which the Company has a 20% to 50% interest is accounted for by the equity method. Under the equity method the carrying value of the investment is adjusted for the Company’s proportionate share of the investee’s income or loss. Investment in which the Company has less than a 20% interest is accounted for by the cost method. Under the cost method, investments are carried at cost and income is recorded when dividends are received from those investees. Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and include expenditures that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Building 20 years Operating Equipment 10 years Office furniture and equipment 3 or 5 years Vehicles 10 years The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are charged directly to expenses as incurred. Significant renewals and betterment to buildings and equipment are capitalized. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life or the life of the lease. Intangible assets Intangible assets mainly consist of land use rights. All land located in the PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or company. The land use rights granted to the Company are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term of 50 years. Other intangible assets are software programs that are amortized over their estimated useful life of 10 years. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed annually as to whether their carrying value has become impaired, pursuant to the guidelines established in FASB ASC 360 (formerly SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. With respect to sales of product to both franchisee and non-franchisee customers, the Company prepares product shipment upon the receipt of a customer’s purchase order. Sales prices are based on fixed price lists that are different depending on whether the price list is for franchisee customers or for non-franchisee customers. The Company recognizes revenue when the product is shipped. The Company does not sell product to any customers with a right of return as defined in ASC 605-15-25-4. Sales are presented net of value added tax (VAT). For Tourmaline Wellness House sales, the Company recognizes revenue under the completed contract method. Customers contact the Company with requests to construct a Wellness House. The Company and the customer enter into a contract, at which time the customer pays a deposit of at least one-half of the sales price. A contract is considered completed when all significant costs have been incurred and the project has been accepted by the customer. The contracts have a place for the customer to sign indicating their acceptance of the completed Wellness House. At this time the customer will also pay any remaining balance on the contract. The Company recognizes the full contract revenue at this point. Contract costs consist primarily of materials and labor costs. The construction period of a Wellness House generally does not exceed five days. Shipping costs Shipping costs are included in selling expenses and totaled $97,393 and $32,231 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Income Taxes The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law and associated legislations of the PRC. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (formerly SFAS No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes) According to ASC 740, the evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition. Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 “Earnings per share”. The Company’s basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the assumption that any dilutive options or warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, the Company’s outstanding stock warrants are assumed to be exercised, and funds thus obtained were assumed to be used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. There were no dilutive instruments outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Segment Information The Company follows FASB ASC 280-Segment Reporting, which requires that companies disclose segment data based on how management makes decision about allocating resources to segments and evaluating their performance. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, management has determined that the Company is operating in three reportable business segments, (1) Healthcare Knit Goods Series, (2) Daily Healthcare and Personal Care Series, and (3) Wellness House and Activated Water Machine Series. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs–Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40). The amendments in ASU 2014-09 supersede most current revenue recognition requirements. The core principal of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised 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. The Company can apply the amendments using one of the following two methods: (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments recognized at the date of initial application. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-4, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year for all entities. Accordingly, ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is permitted only for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently assessing the timing of its adoption and the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and the implementation approach to be used. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted on a retrospective basis. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2015-03 early, effective in the year ended December 31, 2015. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. ASU 2015-16 requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. Entities are currently required to retrospectively apply adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance is to be applied prospectively to measurement period adjustments that occur after the effective date of the guidance with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2015-16 early, effective in the year ended December 31, 2015. In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. Thestandard requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. Entities are currently required to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. The amendments, which require non-current presentation only (by jurisdiction), are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The guidance is to be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company elected to early adopt this standard, effective as of December 31, 2015. There was no impact from this adoption. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The standard requires several targeted changes including that equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The new guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements and other aspects of current US GAAP. Amendments are to be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. This standard is effective for fiscal years starting after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The standard does not permit early adoption with the exception of certain targeted provisions. The Company is currently assessing the impact and timing of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements. |
