Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION (A) General INVO Bioscience, Inc. (“the Company”) offers novel solutions in assisted reproductive technologies while expanding geographic and affordable access to the global reproductive health care community. Our primary focus is the manufacture and sale of the INVOcell device and the INVO technology to assist infertile couples in having a baby. We designed our INVOcell device and our INVO procedure to provide an alternative infertility treatment for the patient and the clinician. The INVO procedure is less expensive and simpler to perform than most comparable infertility treatments currently. The simplicity of the INVO procedure relates to the ability to potentially perform the INVO procedure in a physician’s practice rather than in a specialized facility at a much lower cost overall than current infertility treatments. We believe that the INVO procedure will make infertility treatment more readily available throughout the world. The INVO procedure is significantly less costly than conventional IVF. The INVOcell device and INVO procedure facilitates conception and embryo development inside the woman’s body, rather than in a dish in a laboratory, which is an attractive feature for most couples. Through December 31, 2017, we have generated minimal revenues, have incurred significant expenses and have sustained losses. Consequently, our operations are subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. In May 2008, the Company received notice that the INVOcell product meets all of the essential requirements of the relevant European Directive(s), and received CE marking. The CE marking (also known as CE mark) is a mandatory conformity mark on many products placed on the single market in the European Economic Area (EEA). The CE marking (an acrony m for the French “Conformitй Europйenne”) certifies that a product has met EU health, safety and environmental requirements, which ensure consumer safety. On November 3, 2015, the Company issued a press release reporting the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted the Company’s de novo request for the INVOcell to allow the marketing, sale and use in the United States. With CE Marking, the Company possess the necessary regulatory authority to distribute its product in the European Economic Area (Includes: The European Union, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand); we can also distribute in India, Africa and most parts of South America and the Middle East. (B) Basis of Presentation On December 5, 2008, the Company completed a share exchange with Emy’s Salsa Aji Distribution Company, Inc. (“Emy’s”), a publicly registered shell corporation with no significant assets or operations. Emy’s was incorporated on July 11, 2005, under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name Certiorari Corp. In connection with the share exchange, INVO Bioscience became Emy’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the INVO Bioscience shareholders acquired control of Emy’s. The Company accounted for the transaction as a recapitalization and the Company is the surviving entity. In connection with the share exchange, Emy’s shareholders retained 14,937,500 shares. Effective with the Agreement, all previously outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Company’s shareholders were exchanged for an aggregate of 38,307,500 shares of Emy’s common stock. Effective with the Agreement, Emy’s changed its name to INVO Bioscience, Inc. All references to “Common Stock,” “share” and “per share” amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the exchange ratio of 357.0197 shares of INVO Bioscience Common Stock for one share of Emy’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger as if the exchange had taken place as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the historical financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company prior to the merger with Emys. The accompanying consolidated financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. (C) Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (D) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had the following amounts of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 of $25,759 and $152,404, respectively. (E) Inventory Inventories consist of work in process (WIP) and finished products and are stated at the lower of cost or market; using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method as a cost flow convention. (F) Property and Equipment The Company records property and equipment at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which are from 3 to 7 years. The Company capitalizes the expenditures for major renewals and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value. (G) Stock Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). This statement requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period. ( H) Loss Per Share Basic loss per share calculations are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include securities or other contracts to issue common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, as the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Loss to common shareholders (Numerator) $ (702,163 ) $ (2,124,252 ) Basic and diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (Denominator) 141,305,050 139,186,557 The Company has excluded the following dilutive securities from the calculation of fully-diluted shares outstanding because the result would have been anti-dilutive: Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Effect of dilutive common stock equivalents: Warrants - - Convertible notes and interest 3,391,300 3,430,547 Total 3,391,300 3,430,547 ( I) Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC 825-10-50, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” (formerly SFAS No. 107) requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and borrowings, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157), which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. (J) Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the ASC 740-10-05, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109). Under ASC 740-10, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts (TCJA) was signed into law by the President of the United States. TCJA is a tax reform act that among other things, reduced corporate tax rates to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes , requires deferred tax assets and liabilities to be adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates in the year of enactment, which is the year in which the change was signed into law. Accordingly, the Company adjusted its deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2017, using the new corporate tax rate of 21 percent. See Note 10. (K) Business Segments The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented. (L) Concentration of Credit Risk Cash includes amounts deposited in financial institutions in excess of insurable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had no cash balances in excess of FDIC limits. (M) Revenue Recognition The Company will recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC 605-10 formerly Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” and No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.” In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. (N) Long- Lived Assets Long-lived assets and certain identifiable assets related to those assets are periodically reviewed for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the non-discounted future cash flows of the enterprise are less than their carrying amount, their carrying amounts are reduced to the fair value and an impairment loss recognized. There was no impairment recorded from January 5, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2017. (O) Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. (P) Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The ASU requires that an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if used), vesting conditions and classification (as equity or liability) of the modified award are all the same as for the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, and should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company will apply this standard for any awards that are modified after January 1, 2018. We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, current U.S. GAAP requires the performance of procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, the amendments under this ASU require the goodwill impairment test to be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed. We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 which amends ASC Topic 230, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” The amendments in this update address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The update outlines the classification of specific transactions as either cash inflows or outflows from financing activities, operating activities, investing activities or non-cash activities. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either operating or financing, with such classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements and associated disclosures. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and create common revenue recognition guidance between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for such goods or services. In addition, ASU 2014-09 requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new revenue standard is principle based and interpretation of those principles may vary from company to company based on their unique circumstances. It is possible that interpretation, industry practice, and guidance may evolve as companies and the accounting profession work to implement this new standard. The Company is still in the process of evaluating the effect of the new standard on the Company’s historical financial statements and disclosures. While the Company has not completed its evaluation, the Company currently believes that the impact to revenue and expense recognized will not be material to any of the years presented. Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Substantial Doubt about Going Concern [Text Block] | NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN The Company commenced operations in December 2008. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company had a net loss of $702,163 and cash used in operations $181,270. At December 31, 2017, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $4,892,418 and a stockholder deficiency of $4,992,112. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. |

The Bridge Notes carry interest rates ranging between 10-12% and were due in full one year from the date of issuance and are past due. Both the Bridge Notes and the accrued interest thereon are convertible into Restricted Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.10 per share (the “Original Conversion Price”). If the Company were to issue any new shares of common stock within 24 months of the date of the Bridge Notes at a price below the Original Conversion Price, then the conversion price of the Bridge Notes would be adjusted to reflect the new lower price. In addition to the Bridge Notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase 5,750,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $0.20 per share as of the date of this filing. All the warrants have expired. The Company valued the conversion feature of the Bridge Notes and the warrants issued via the Black-Scholes valuation method. The total fair value calculated for the conversion feature was $1,473,710; $151,826 was allocated to discount on the Bridge Notes, and $1,341,884 was charged to operations. The total fair value calculated for the warrants was $1,719,666; $393,174 was allocated to discount on the Bridge Notes, and $1,326,492 was charged to operations. The aggregate discount on the Bridge Notes for the conversion feature and the warrants was $545,000, and the aggregate amount charged to operations was $2,668,371 which was recorded as a derivative liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. From November 2009 through May 2015 $535,000 of the principal of the Bridge Notes were converted into shares of Restricted Common Stock. In March 2017, the Company converted the last Bridge Note in the amount of $10,000 and accrued interest into shares of common stock. The Company negotiated this conversion at a price lower than the conversion price stated in the original Bridge Note documents because the Bridge Note was past due. This conversion was treated as a restructure of debt on the Company’s financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2017. $10,000 of the Bridge Notes and accrued interest were converted into 341,000 shares of restricted common stock resulting in a loss on debt settlement in the amount of $40,869. The principal balances of the Convertible Notes was $0 and $10,000 for 2017 and 2016, respectively. This last note was converted in Q1 2017. The related interest for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $0 and $750, respectively. Notes Payable In August 2016, INVO Bioscience converted a long time vendor’s outstanding accounts payable balance of $131,722 into a three (3) year 5% notes payable. The note provides for interest only payments on the first and second anniversaries of the note. The note is payable in full along with any outstanding accrued interest on the third anniversary. The Company has the right to prepay the note at any time without a premium or penalty. The interest on this note for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $9,330 and $2,760 respectively. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 10 INCOME TAXES The Company has adopted ASC 740-10, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company’s total deferred tax liabilities, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax asset valuation allowances are as of December 31 are as follows: December 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Total deferred tax assets $ 3,730,000 $ 5,235,000 Less valuation allowance (3,730,000 ) (5,235,000 ) Total deferred tax liabilities - - Net deferred tax asset (liability) $ - $ - Those amounts have been presented in the company’s financial statements as of December 31, as follows: December 31, 2017 2016 Deferred tax asset $ - $ - Deferred tax liability - - Net deferred tax asset (liability) $ - $ - The company has a loss carry forward of $9.1 million that may be offset against future taxable income. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act establishes new tax laws that affects 2018 and future years, including a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21%, effective January 1, 2018 . For certain deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, we have recorded a provisional decrease of $1,680,000 , with a corresponding net adjustment to valuation allowance of $1,680,000 as of December 31, 2017. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which is uncertain. Those amounts are therefore presented on the Company’s balance sheets as a non-current asset. Utilization of the net operating loss carry forwards may be subject to substantial annual limitations, which may result in the expiration of net operating loss carry forwards before utilization. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 11 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES A) Operating Leases In November 2012, INVO Bioscience entered into a below market, month to month rental agreement with Forty Four Realty Trust with for the space it requires. Forty Four Realty Trust is owned by investor James Bowdring, the brother of Director Robert Bowdring. B) Litigation INVO Bioscience, Inc., and two of its directors have been, since 2010, defending litigation brought by investors in an alleged predecessor of INVO Bioscience. On March 24, 2010, INVO Bioscience, Inc. and its corporate affiliate, Bio X Cell, Inc., Claude Ranoux, and Kathleen Karloff were served an Amended Complaint, the original of which was filed on December 31, 2009 at the Suffolk Superior Court Business Litigation Session by two terminated employees of Medelle Corporation (also named as a co-defendant but no longer active), who are also attorneys, and a former investor in and creditor of Medelle. These plaintiffs allege various claims of wrongdoing relating to the sale of assets of Medelle to Dr. Ranoux. Plaintiffs claim that Dr. Ranoux, Ms. Karloff, and Medelle (and therefore INVO Bioscience as an alleged successor corporation) violated alleged duties owed to plaintiffs in connection with the sale. Separate claims were also alleged against INVO Bioscience. Dr. Ranoux, Ms. Karloff, and INVO Bioscience have challenged these allegations, which they believe are baseless. The transfer of the assets of Medelle was professionally handled by an independent third party, after approval by the Medelle Board of Directors, representing a majority of its shareholders. Medelle’s Board voted to proceed with an assignment for the benefit of creditors (AFBC) and gave complete authority to the President & CEO at that time (neither Dr. Ranoux nor Ms. Karloff) to work with the third-party assignee and to get the best possible price for those assets. The third party was responsible for notifying all the appropriate parties and for filing notices in various professional publications and newspapers of Medelle’s intention to sell its assets. The third party also contacted numerous large medical device and bio-pharma companies to learn if they would be interested in acquiring the assets. After a private sale was deemed unlikely, the assignee of the assets elected to proceed with a sealed-bid auction of the assets. On the day of the auction, Dr. Ranoux submitted the only bid and was awarded the assets, upon full payment. During 2010, Dr. Ranoux, Ms. Karloff, and INVO Bioscience filed Motions to Dismiss as to all claims, pursuant to M.R.Civ. P. 12(b)(6). In a written Decision rendered on November 12, 2010, the judge dismissed all claims against INVO, Bio X Cell, and Ms. Karloff, and also dismissed the claims against Dr. Ranoux alleging civil conspiracy and breach of M.G.L. c. 93A. The judge denied Dr. Ranoux’s motion to dismiss the remaining breach of fiduciary duty and fraud claims. The plaintiffs allege in their Amended Complaint that Dr. Ranoux committed fraud by failing to inform them of the details of the Medelle auction. The claims against Dr. Ranoux that survived the November 2010 dismissal order were submitted to binding arbitration. On February 15, 2013, the mutually-agreed arbitrator ruled in favor of Dr. Ranoux. The award held that Dr. Ranoux did not withhold information about the auction of Medelle’s assets and expressed doubt that the plaintiffs would have invested the resources necessary to make a beneficial use of the assets. The arbitrator’s award then was confirmed by the Superior Court on August 21, 2013. The Superior Court’s confirmation of the award was affirmed on appeal on October 20, 2013 by the Massachusetts Appeals Court. The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court then denied further appellate review. On October 18, 2016, following motions and argument, the Superior Court issued a memorandum of decision and order denying plaintiffs’ motion for entry of default judgment and assessment of damages against Medelle and allowed the motion of INVO Bioscience, Bio X Cell, and Ms. Karloff for entry of final judgment of dismissal. The foregoing order was converted to a final judgment dismissing all claims against all defendants and entered on the docket on October 27, 2016. On November 28, 2016, plaintiffs filed an amended notice of appeal from the Superior Court’s decision of October 17, 2016 and the subsequent judgment entered on October 27, 2016. The appeal further challenges the order of dismissal from November, 2010. Plaintiffs did not appeal from the dismissal of the claims against Ms. Karloff, so the judgment in her favor is now final, leaving claims against INVO Bioscience, Bio X Cell, Medelle, and Dr. Ranoux. INVO Bioscience and Bio X Cell intend a vigorous opposition to the current appeal, consistent with their previous positions that no breach of duty occurred in the sale of Medelle’s assets. It is assumed that Dr. Ranoux will oppose the appeal as well. Outside of the above-mentioned litigation, neither INVO Bioscience nor Bio X Cell, our wholly-owned subsidiary, either directly or indirectly, are involved in any lawsuit outside the ordinary course of business, the disposition of which would have a material effect upon either our results of operation, financial position, or cash flows. C) Employee Agreements The Company had employment agreements for officers, executives and employees of the Company in place. The agreements have since expired and have not been renewed as the Company has not had the proper funds to meet its commitment but has continued to accrue amounts annually for the work that has been performed. The employees and directors are continuing to work based on good faith and belief in the Company and the INVOcell product. D) Consulting Agreements The Company has a verbal agreement beginning in March, 2013 with its former CFO, Robert Bowdring, who is currently a Director, to assist where necessary in the financial and administrative areas of the Company for compensation to be equivalent to the others working in the organization. The Company had an agreement which began in August, 2011 with an Advisory Board Member who assisted the Company in its sales and marketing areas for stock compensation. This member’s agreement was not renewed in September 2016 when it expired. |

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation On December 5, 2008, the Company completed a share exchange with Emy’s Salsa Aji Distribution Company, Inc. (“Emy’s”), a publicly registered shell corporation with no significant assets or operations. Emy’s was incorporated on July 11, 2005, under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name Certiorari Corp. In connection with the share exchange, INVO Bioscience became Emy’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the INVO Bioscience shareholders acquired control of Emy’s. The Company accounted for the transaction as a recapitalization and the Company is the surviving entity. In connection with the share exchange, Emy’s shareholders retained 14,937,500 shares. Effective with the Agreement, all previously outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Company’s shareholders were exchanged for an aggregate of 38,307,500 shares of Emy’s common stock. Effective with the Agreement, Emy’s changed its name to INVO Bioscience, Inc. All references to “Common Stock,” “share” and “per share” amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the exchange ratio of 357.0197 shares of INVO Bioscience Common Stock for one share of Emy’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger as if the exchange had taken place as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the historical financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company prior to the merger with Emys. The accompanying consolidated financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had the following amounts of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 of $25,759 and $152,404, respectively. |
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Inventory Inventories consist of work in process (WIP) and finished products and are stated at the lower of cost or market; using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method as a cost flow convention. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Property and Equipment The Company records property and equipment at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which are from 3 to 7 years. The Company capitalizes the expenditures for major renewals and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value. |
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block] | Stock Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). This statement requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period. |
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Loss Per Share Basic loss per share calculations are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include securities or other contracts to issue common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, as the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Loss to common shareholders (Numerator) $ (702,163 ) $ (2,124,252 ) Basic and diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (Denominator) 141,305,050 139,186,557 The Company has excluded the following dilutive securities from the calculation of fully-diluted shares outstanding because the result would have been anti-dilutive: Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Effect of dilutive common stock equivalents: Warrants - - Convertible notes and interest 3,391,300 3,430,547 Total 3,391,300 3,430,547 |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC 825-10-50, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” (formerly SFAS No. 107) requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and borrowings, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157), which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. |
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the ASC 740-10-05, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109). Under ASC 740-10, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts (TCJA) was signed into law by the President of the United States. TCJA is a tax reform act that among other things, reduced corporate tax rates to 21 percent effective January 1, 2018. FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes , requires deferred tax assets and liabilities to be adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates in the year of enactment, which is the year in which the change was signed into law. Accordingly, the Company adjusted its deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2017, using the new corporate tax rate of 21 percent. See Note 10. |
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Business Segments The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented. |
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of Credit Risk Cash includes amounts deposited in financial institutions in excess of insurable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had no cash balances in excess of FDIC limits. |
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Revenue Recognition The Company will recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC 605-10 formerly Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” and No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.” In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. |
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Including Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Long- Lived Assets Long-lived assets and certain identifiable assets related to those assets are periodically reviewed for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the non-discounted future cash flows of the enterprise are less than their carrying amount, their carrying amounts are reduced to the fair value and an impairment loss recognized. There was no impairment recorded from January 5, 2007 (inception) to December 31, 2017. |
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The ASU requires that an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if used), vesting conditions and classification (as equity or liability) of the modified award are all the same as for the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, and should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company will apply this standard for any awards that are modified after January 1, 2018. We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, current U.S. GAAP requires the performance of procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, the amendments under this ASU require the goodwill impairment test to be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed. We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 which amends ASC Topic 230, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” The amendments in this update address eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The update outlines the classification of specific transactions as either cash inflows or outflows from financing activities, operating activities, investing activities or non-cash activities. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either operating or financing, with such classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements and associated disclosures. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and create common revenue recognition guidance between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for such goods or services. In addition, ASU 2014-09 requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new revenue standard is principle based and interpretation of those principles may vary from company to company based on their unique circumstances. It is possible that interpretation, industry practice, and guidance may evolve as companies and the accounting profession work to implement this new standard. The Company is still in the process of evaluating the effect of the new standard on the Company’s historical financial statements and disclosures. While the Company has not completed its evaluation, the Company currently believes that the impact to revenue and expense recognized will not be material to any of the years presented. Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. |
