SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (A) Use of Estimates in Financial Statements The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Stock-based compensation and stock awards related to convertible debt instruments are recognized based on the fair value of the awards granted. The fair value of each award or conversion feature is typically estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Black-Scholes pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the underlying common stock, the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the price of our common stock, risk-free interest rates and the expected dividend yield of our common stock. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of the stock awards represent management’s best estimates. These estimates involve inherent (B) Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Basanite, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Basanite Industries, LLC and Basalt America, LLC. All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s operations are conducted primarily through Basanite Industries, LLC. Basalt America, LLC is currently inactive. (C) Cash The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on deposit with financial institutions in the United States, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company “("FDIC") up to $ 250,000 (D) Inventories The Company’s inventories consist of raw materials, work in process and finished goods, both purchased and manufactured. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Raw materials inventory The Company’s inventory at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was comprised of: Schedule of Inventory September 30, December 31, (Unaudited) Finished goods $ 515,077 $ 305,550 Work in process 47,233 35,286 Raw materials 91,818 105,739 Total inventory $ 654,128 $ 446,575 (E) Fixed assets Fixed assets consist of the following: Schedule of Fixed Assets September 30, December 31, (Unaudited) Computer equipment $ 117,141 $ 15,780 Machinery 686,237 667,536 Leasehold improvements 163,882 161,579 Office furniture and equipment 71,292 71,292 Land improvements 7,270 7,270 Website development 2,500 2,500 Construction in process 1,800,281 234,950 2,848,603 1,160,907 Accumulated depreciation (237,227 ) (140,872 ) $ 2,611,376 $ 1,020,035 Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $ 32,430 96,355 30,102 85,875 (F) Deposits and other current assets The Company’s deposits and other current assets consist of the deposits made on equipment, security deposits, utility deposits and other receivables. The deposits are reclassified as part of the fixed asset cost when received and placed into service. (G) Loss Per Share The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. The diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. The following are potentially dilutive shares not included in the loss per share computation: Schedule of Dilutive Shares Not Included in Loss Per Share Computation September 30, December 31, (Unaudited) Options 4,727,778 4,542,500 Warrants 117,691,666 38,920,378 Convertible securities 182,403,859 112,233,406 Total 304,823,303 155,696,284 (H) Stock-Based Compensation The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under FASB ASC Topic 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the grant. The Company entered into a consulting agreement with Bridgeview Capital on July 9, 2020, for strategic planning and financial markets services in exchange for shares of restricted common stock as compensation. The term of the agreement is for six months with the option for renewal quarterly.

The timing of revenue recognition largely is dependent on shipping terms. Revenue is recorded at the time of shipment for terms designated free on board (“FOB”) shipping point. For sales transactions designated FOB destination, revenue is recorded when the product is delivered to the customer’s delivery site. All revenues recognized are net of trade allowances, cash discounts, and sales returns. Trade allowances are based on the estimated obligations. Adjustments to earnings resulting from revisions to estimates on discounts and returns have been immaterial for each of the reported periods. Shipping and handling amounts billed to a customer as part of a sales transaction are included in revenues, and the related costs are included in cost of goods sold. Shipping and handling is treated as a fulfillment activity, rather than a promised service, and therefore is not considered a separate performance obligation. |
