Principles of Consolidation |
|
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the China Pediatric Pharmaceuticals, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries, China Children Pharmaceuticals Co. Limited, and Xi'an Coova Children Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. as well as Shaanxi Jiali Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information |
|
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. |
|
The consolidated balance sheets and certain comparative information as of December 31, 2012 are derived from the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2012 (“2012 Annual Financial Statements”), included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2012 Annual Financial Statements. |
Use of Estimates | ' |
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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Accounts Receivable | ' |
Accounts Receivable |
|
Management periodically reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate potential credit losses on accounts receivable. The Company grants 90 days payment terms to all credit sales customers. |
|
Provision for doubtful accounts is estimated as follows: i) 50% on accounts that are outstanding between 91 and 180 days, ii) 75% on accounts that are outstanding between 181 to 365 days, and iii) 100% on accounts that are outstanding for over 365 days. |
Segment Reporting | ' |
Segment Reporting |
|
ASC 280-10-50, “Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related information” requires us of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a Company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. The Company operates in one segment during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements | ' |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
|
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income.” The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition. |
|
On March 4, 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830) Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon De-recognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (“ASU 2013-05”). ASU 2013-05 updates accounting guidance related to the application of consolidation guidance and foreign currency matters. This guidance resolves the diversity in practice about what guidance applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition. |

In July of 2013 the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit when a Net Operating Loss Carry-forward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carry-forward exists. This guidance provide that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion thereof, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carry-forward, except to the extent that carry-forwards are not available to settle any additional income taxes that would result from disallowance of a tax position. The unrecognized tax benefit should be presented as a liability. This guidance is applicable for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements. |

As of September 30, 2013, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |
