Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Background and Basis of Presentation	NOTE 1 — BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emerson Radio Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Emerson” or the “Company”). The Company designs, sources, imports and markets certain houseware and consumer electronic products, and licenses the Company’s trademarks for a variety of products. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2019 and the results of operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes; actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 (“fiscal 2019”), included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, for fiscal 2019. The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other interim periods or for the full year ending March 31, 2020 (“fiscal 2020”). Whenever necessary, reclassifications are made to conform the prior year’s consolidated financial statements to the current year’s presentation. Unless otherwise disclosed in the notes to these consolidated financial statements, the estimated fair value of the financial assets and liabilities approximates the carrying value. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases Upon adoption, the Company recognized total lease liabilities of $695,000, and corresponding right-of-use assets of $650,000, all of which is associated with leased office space. The difference between the right-of-use asset and lease liability is due to the existing deferred balance, resulting from historical straight-lining of operating leases that was reclassified upon adoption to reduce the measurement of the right-of-use assets. The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows were not materially impacted. See Note 9, “Leases” for further details. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The following ASUs were issued by the FASB which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates. Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” (Issued June 2016) In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” to introduce new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within its scope. ASU 2016-13 requires among other things, the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material impact on its financial statements. Revenue recognition : Sales to customers and related cost of sales are primarily recognized at the point in time when control of goods transfers to the customer. Under the Direct Import Program, title passes in the country of origin. Under the Domestic Program, title passes primarily at the time of shipment. Estimates for future expected returns are based upon historical return rates and netted against revenues. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts, promotional allowances, volume rebates and similar charges. When the Company offers the right to return product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns. Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. Management must make estimates of potential future product returns related to current period product revenue. Management analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand for the Company’s products when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for sales returns. Management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales return reserves in any accounting period. Additional reserves may be required if actual sales returns increase above the historical return rates. Conversely, the sales return reserve could be decreased if the actual return rates are less than the historical return rates, which were used to establish the reserve. If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES At June 30, 2019, the Company had $4.4 million of U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards. These losses do not expire but are limited to utilization of 80% of taxable income in any one year. At June 30, 2019 the Company had approximately $11.7 million of U.S. state net operating loss carry forwards. The tax benefits related to these state net operating loss carry forwards and future deductible temporary differences are recorded to the extent management believes it is more likely than not that such benefits will be realized. The income of foreign subsidiaries before taxes was $165,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 as compared to a loss before taxes of $60,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The Company analyzed the future reasonability of recognizing its deferred tax assets at June 30, 2019. As a result, the Company concluded that a valuation allowance of approximately $1,680,000 would be recorded against the assets Although the Company generated a net operating loss, it recorded income tax expense of approximately $5,300 during the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily resulting from state income taxes. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $48,300. The Company is subject to examination and assessment by tax authorities in numerous jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s open tax years for examination for U.S. federal tax are 2014-2017, and for U.S. states’ tax are 2013-2017. Based on the outcome of tax examinations or due to the expiration of statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken in previously filed returns may be different from the liabilities that have been recorded for these unrecognized tax benefits. As a result, the Company may be subject to additional tax expense.

Risks And Uncertainties [Abstract]
Concentration Risk	NOTE 8 — CONCENTRATION RISK Customer Concentration For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s three largest customers accounted for approximately 73% of the Company’s net revenues, of which Walmart accounted for 39%, Amazon accounted for 23% and Fred Meyer accounted for 11%. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company’s three largest customers accounted for approximately 80% of the Company’s net revenues, of which Walmart accounted for 51%, Fred Meyer accounted for 18% and Amazon accounted for 11%. A significant decline in net sales to any of the Company’s key customers would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation. Product Concentration For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s gross product sales were comprised of two product types within two categories — housewares products and audio products, of which microwave ovens generated approximately 49% of the Company’s gross product sales. Audio products generated approximately 49% For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company’s gross product sales were comprised of the same two product types within two categories — housewares products and audio products, of which microwave ovens generated approximately 51% Concentrations of Credit Risk As a percent of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, the Company’s top two customers accounted for 37% and 37% as of June 30, 2019, respectively. As a percent of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, the Company’s top two customers accounted for 47% and 29% as of March 31, 2019, respectively. The Company periodically performs credit evaluations of its customers but generally does not require collateral, and the Company provides for any anticipated credit losses in the financial statements based upon management’s estimates and ongoing reviews of recorded allowances. Due to the high concentration of the Company’s net trade accounts receivables among just two customers, any significant failure by one of these customers to pay the Company the amounts owing against these receivables would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Supplier Concentration During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company procured approximately 77% of its products for resale from its two largest factory suppliers, of which 42% was supplied by its largest supplier. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company procured approximately 84% of its products for resale from its two largest factory suppliers, of which 56% was supplied by its largest supplier.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts, promotional allowances, volume rebates and similar charges. When the Company offers the right to return product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns. Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. Management must make estimates of potential future product returns related to current period product revenue. Management analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand for the Company’s products when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for sales returns. Management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales return reserves in any accounting period. Additional reserves may be required if actual sales returns increase above the historical return rates. Conversely, the sales return reserve could be decreased if the actual return rates are less than the historical return rates, which were used to establish the reserve. If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.
