Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Business — Estimates — Business Concentration — Cash and Cash Equivalents — Accounts Receivable — Management periodically reviews accounts receivable balances and, based on an assessment of historical bad debts, current customer receivable balances, age of customer receivable balances, customers’ financial conditions and current economic trends, estimates the portion of the balance that will not be collected. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation account based on its assessment of the current status of the individual accounts. Balances which remain outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to trade accounts receivable. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded as income when received. Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in-first-out method. Inventories are presented net of a valuation allowance. Management has estimated and included an allowance for slow moving inventory for both current and noncurrent inventory. Property, Plant and Equipment — Building 30 years Building improvements 10 – 15 years Machinery, equipment 3 – 15 years Furniture and fixtures 3 years Capitalized projects that are not placed in service are recorded as in progress and are not depreciated until the related assets are placed in service. Income Taxes — Revenue Recognition — Sales are recognized and recorded when products are shipped. Products are shipped FOB shipping point. Allowances for estimated sales returns are recorded as sales are recognized and recorded. Management uses a moving average calculation to estimate the allowance for sales returns. Transportation revenue represents the amount billed to the customer for shipping the product and is recorded when the product is shipped. Advertising Costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses, included in selling and operating expenses in the statements of earnings, were $531,500 and $367,300 for the years ended February 29, 2016 and February 28, 2015, respectively. Shipping and Handling Costs — Interest Expense — Interest related to our outstanding debt is recognized as incurred. Interest expense, classified separately in the statements of earnings, were $244,900 and $54,000 for the years ended February 29, 2016 and February 28, 2015, respectively. Earnings per Share — The computation of weighted average common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) is shown below. Year Ended February 29(28), 2016 2015 Earnings Per Share: Net earnings applicable to common shareholders $ 2,119,300 $ 859,200 Shares: Weighted average shares outstanding–basic 4,049,154 4,003,702 Assumed exercise of options 2,524 - Weighted average shares outstanding–diluted 4,051,678 4,003,702 Diluted Earnings Per Share Basic $ 0.52 $ 0.21 Diluted $ 0.52 $ 0.21 Stock options not considered above because they were antidilutive - 10,000 Long-Lived Asset Impairment — Stock-Based Compensation — New Accounting Pronouncements — In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, and amended with ASU No. 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides a single revenue recognition model which is intended to improve comparability over a range of industries, companies and geographical boundaries and will also result in enhanced disclosures. The changes are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2019. We are currently reviewing the ASU and assessing the potential impact on our financial statements. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15 “Interest—Imputation of Interest,” which modifies the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs associated with line-of-credit arrangements. These changes allow an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. The changes are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those annual periods, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2017. We are currently reviewing the ASU and assessing the potential impact on our financial statements. In November 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, which is intended to improve how deferred taxes are classified on organizations’ balance sheets by eliminating the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations will now be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The changes are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2018. We anticipate this ASU having minimal impact on our financial statements. In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases,” which is intended to establish a comprehensive new lease accounting model. The new standard clarifies the definition of a lease, requires a dual approach to lease classification similar to current lease classifications, and causes lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet as a lease liability with a corresponding right-of-use asset. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020. The new standard requires a modified retrospective transition for capital or operating leases existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We are currently reviewing the ASU and evaluating the potential impact on our financial statements. In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2018.We are currently reviewing the ASU and evaluating the potential impact on our financial statements. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | 5. INCOME TAXES Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. 2016 2015 Current: Deferred tax assets: Allowance for doubtful accounts $ 40,000 $ 41,100 Inventory overhead capitalization 131,000 86,900 Inventory valuation allowance 9,500 9,500 Allowance for sales returns 38,000 38,000 Accruals 79,700 74,300 Deferred tax assets-current 298,200 249,800 Noncurrent: Deferred tax assets: Inventory valuation allowance $ 114,000 $ 143,300 Capital loss carryforward 163,600 163,600 Subtotal deferred tax assets 277,600 306,900 Less valuation allowance (163,600 ) (163,600 ) Total net deferred tax assets 114,000 143,300 Deferred tax liabilities: Property, plant and equipment (63,100 ) (63,100 ) Deferred tax liabilities (63,100 ) (63,100 ) Net deferred tax asset-noncurrent $ 50,900 $ 80,200 Management has assessed the evidence to estimate whether sufficient future capital gains will be generated to utilize the existing capital loss carryforward. As no current expectation of capital gains exists, Management has The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if future capital gains are generated during the carryforward period which ends February 28, 2019. Management has determined that no valuation allowance is necessary to reduce the carrying value of other deferred tax assets as it is “more likely than not” that such assets are realizable. The amount of the deferred tax liability related to property, plant and equipment could be adjusted if a scheduled future cost segregation analysis, expected to be completed by the end of the second fiscal quarter 2017, results in changes which affect this liability. The components of income tax expense are as follows: February 29(28), 2016 2015 Current: Federal $ 1,210,900 $ 439,200 State 234,800 103,400 1,445,700 542,600 Deferred: Federal (16,100 ) 600 State (3,000 ) 100 (19,100 ) 700 Total income tax expense $ 1,426,600 $ 543,300 The following reconciles our expected income tax expense utilizing statutory tax rates to the actual tax expense: February 29(28), 2016 2015 Tax expense at federal statutory rate $ 1,205,600 $ 476,800 Federal income tax audit expense for 2012 67,900 - State income tax–net of federal tax benefit 158,200 73,300 Other (5,100 ) (6,800 ) Total income tax expense $ 1,426,600 $ 543,300 We file our tax returns in the U.S. and certain state jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years before 2013. Based upon a review of our income tax filing positions, we believe that our positions would be sustained upon an audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded. We classify interest and penalties associated with income taxes as a component of income tax expense on the statement of earnings. |

Commitments Disclosure [Text Block] | 7. COMMITMENTS In connection with the purchase of the facility, disclosed in Note 3, we entered into a 15-year lease with the seller, a non-related third party, who will lease 181,300 square feet, or 45.3% of the facility. The lease is being accounted for as an operating lease. The cost of the leased space upon acquisition was estimated as $10,159,000, which was also the carrying cost as of February 29, 2016. The lessee will pay $105,800 per month, with a 2.0% annual increase adjustment on the anniversary of the lease. The lease terms allow for one five-year extension, which is not a bargain renewal option, at the expiration of the 15-year term. Revenue associated with the lease is being recorded on a straight-line basis and is reported in Other Income on the statement of earnings. The following table reflects future minimum rental income payments under the non-cancellable portion of this lease as of February 29, 2016: Year ending February 28(29), 2017 $ 1,275,400 2018 1,301,000 2019 1,327,000 2020 1,353,500 2021 1,380,600 Thereafter 14,992,400 Total $ 21,629,900 At February 29, 2016, we had outstanding purchase commitments for inventory totaling approximately $18,143,200, which is due during fiscal year 2017.

The Loan Agreement also provides a $4.0 million revolving loan (“line of credit”) through December 1, 2016. Available credit under the line of credit agreement was $668,200 as of February 29, 2016. Tranche A has a fixed interest rate of 4.23% and interest is payable monthly. For Tranche B and the line of credit, interest is payable monthly at the lesser of the maximum interest rate permitted under the Governing law, or the bank adjusted LIBOR Index plus 2.75% (3.18% at February 29, 2016). Subsequent to year end, we executed the First amendment to the loan agreement in March 2016, which increased the line of credit to $6.0 million. The Loan Agreement also contains a provision for our use of the Bank’s letters of credit. The Bank agrees to issue, or obtain issuance of commercial or stand-by letters of credit provided that no letters of credit will have an expiry date later than December 1, 2016, and that the sum of the line of credit plus the letters of credit would not exceed the borrowing base in effect at the time. The Loan Agreement contains provisions that require us to maintain specified financial ratios, restrict transactions with related parties, prohibit mergers or consolidation, disallow additional debt, and limit the amount of compensation, salaries, investments, capital expenditures and leasing transactions. For the year ended February 29, 2016, we had no letters of credit outstanding.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 13. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The valuation hierarchy included in U.S. GAAP considers the transparency of inputs used to value assets and liabilities as of the measurement date. The less transparent or observable the inputs used to value assets and liabilities, the lower the classification of the assets and liabilities in the valuation hierarchy. A financial instrument’s classification within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to its fair value measurement. The three levels of the valuation hierarchy and the classification of our financial assets and liabilities within the hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If an asset or liability has a specified term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. We do not report any assets or liabilities at fair value in the financial statements. However, the estimated fair value of our line of credit is estimated by management to approximate the carrying value of $3,331,800 and $1,400,000 at February 29, 2016 and February 28, 2015, respectively, the estimated fair value of our term note payable is estimated by management to approximate $18,078,300 at February 29, 2016 and $0 February 28, 2015, respectively. Management’s estimates are based on the obligations’ characteristics, including floating interest rate, maturity, and collateral. Such valuation inputs are considered a Level 2 measurement in the fair value valuation hierarchy. |

Receivables, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Accounts Receivable — Management periodically reviews accounts receivable balances and, based on an assessment of historical bad debts, current customer receivable balances, age of customer receivable balances, customers’ financial conditions and current economic trends, estimates the portion of the balance that will not be collected. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation account based on its assessment of the current status of the individual accounts. Balances which remain outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to trade accounts receivable. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded as income when received. |
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in-first-out method.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | New Accounting Pronouncements — In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, and amended with ASU No. 2015-14 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides a single revenue recognition model which is intended to improve comparability over a range of industries, companies and geographical boundaries and will also result in enhanced disclosures. The changes are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2019. We are currently reviewing the ASU and assessing the potential impact on our financial statements. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15 “Interest—Imputation of Interest,” which modifies the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs associated with line-of-credit arrangements. These changes allow an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. The changes are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those annual periods, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2017. We are currently reviewing the ASU and assessing the potential impact on our financial statements. In November 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, which is intended to improve how deferred taxes are classified on organizations’ balance sheets by eliminating the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations will now be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The changes are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2018. We anticipate this ASU having minimal impact on our financial statements. In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases,” which is intended to establish a comprehensive new lease accounting model. The new standard clarifies the definition of a lease, requires a dual approach to lease classification similar to current lease classifications, and causes lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet as a lease liability with a corresponding right-of-use asset. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020. The new standard requires a modified retrospective transition for capital or operating leases existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We are currently reviewing the ASU and evaluating the potential impact on our financial statements. In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which means the first quarter of our fiscal year 2018.We are currently reviewing the ASU and evaluating the potential impact on our financial statements. |
