Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Business — Stock Split — Estimates — Reclassifications — Business Concentration — A significant portion of our UBAM division sales are facilitated through the use of social media collaboration platforms that allow our consultants to interact in real-time, or near real-time, with customers. Consultants use these platforms to invite potential customers to “online parties,” provide book recommendations, answer questions and provide links to other supporting online materials. When a customer is ready to purchase books from the online party, they are redirected from the social media platform to the consultant’s e-commerce site where the order can be placed. 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 accounts receivable. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded as income when received. Management has estimated an allowance for doubtful accounts of $237,400 and $268,600 as of February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. Included within this allowance is $93,900 of reserve for vendor discounts to sell remaining inventory as of February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019. Inventories — Consultants that meet certain eligibility requirements may request and receive inventory on consignment. Consignment inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, less an estimated reserve for consignment inventory that is not expected to be sold or returned to the Company. The total cost of inventory on consignment, excluding the estimated reserve, with consultants was $1,519,600 and $1,545,000 at February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. The Company has reserved for consignment inventory not expected to be sold or returned of $239,800 and $48,600 as of February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. Inventories are presented net of a valuation allowance, which includes reserves for inventory obsolescence and consultant consignment inventory that is not expected to be sold or returned. Management estimates the allowance for both current and noncurrent inventory. The allowance is based on management’s identification of slow-moving inventory and estimated consignment inventory that will not be sold or returned. Property, Plant and Equipment — Building 30 years Building improvements 5 – 15 years Machinery and 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. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — Income Taxes — Revenue Recognition — The majority of the Company's contracts have a single performance obligation and are short-term in nature. Certain contracts associated with hostess award programs include sales incentives, such as discounted products. These incentives provide a separate performance obligation in the contract and material right to the customer. The transaction price is allocated to the material right based on its relative standalone selling price and is recognized in revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied, which occurs at shipping point or at the expiration of the material right. As our sales incentives are delivered with the associated products ordered, there is no deferral required. Revenues allocated to the material right are recognized in gross sales, discounts and allowances and cost of goods sold in our statement of earnings. Estimated allowances for sales returns, which reduce net revenues and costs of goods sold, are recorded as sales are recognized. Management uses a moving average calculation to estimate the allowance for sales returns. We are not responsible for product damaged in transit. Damaged returns are primarily from retail stores. These returns result from damage that occurs in the stores, not in shipping to the stores. It is industry practice to accept non-damaged returns from retail customers. Management has estimated sales returns of approximately $201,500 and $204,000 as of February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively, which is included in other current liabilities on the Company’s balance sheets. In addition, Management has recorded an asset for the expected value of non-damaged inventories to be returned. The estimated value of returned products of $100,800 and $102,000 is included in other current assets on the Company’s balance sheets as of February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. Advertising Costs — Shipping and Handling Costs — Interest Expense — Interest Expense — Earnings per Share — The computation of weighted average common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS is shown below: Year Ended February 29 (28), 2020 2019 Earnings per share: Net earnings applicable to common shareholders $ 5,645,100 $ 6,678,400 Shares: Weighted average shares outstanding-basic 8,318,412 8,189,149 Assumed exercise of options 4,716 7,479 Weighted average shares outstanding-diluted 8,323,128 8,196,628 Diluted earnings per share: Basic $ 0.68 $ 0.82 Diluted $ 0.68 $ 0.81 Stock-Based Compensation — New Accounting Pronouncements — In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). In addition, in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements, which provide an additional (and optional) transition method whereby the new lease standard is applied at the adoption date and recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings. This ASU requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases. The new accounting model for lessors remains largely unchanged, although some changes have been made to align it with the new lessee model and the new revenue recognition guidance. This update also requires companies to include additional disclosures regarding their lessee and lessor agreements. We adopted this standard on March 1, 2019, and it did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Adoption of this ASU resulted in an increase in our assets and liabilities by approximately $52,900, due to the recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities. See Note 7 – Leases for our lease disclosures. In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses”, which requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). The new guidance modifies disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Implementation on a prospective or retrospective basis varies by specific disclosure requirement. The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The adoption of this ASU expands the disclosure of certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In December 2019, the FASB published ASU 2019-12: Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies the Accounting for income taxes. Topic 740 addresses a number of topics including but not limited to the removal of certain exceptions currently included in the standard related to intra-period allocation when there are losses, in addition to calculation of income taxes when current year-to-date losses exceed anticipated loss for the year. The amendment also simplifies accounting for certain franchise taxes and disclosure of the effect of enacted change in tax laws or rates. Topic 740 is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The impact of the adoption of the standard has not yet been determined and is being evaluated. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as interbank offered rates and LIBOR. This ASU includes practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. This ASU is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company’s debt agreements include the use of alternate rates when LIBOR is not available. We do not expect the change from LIBOR to an alternate rate will have a material impact and are currently evaluating the comprehensive effect of this ASU on our Company’s financial position and results of operations. |
