Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Cash The Company maintains all of its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. No losses have been experienced on such accounts. Receivables Receivables are carried at original invoice less estimates made for doubtful receivables. Management determines the allowances for doubtful accounts by reviewing and identifying troubled accounts on a periodic basis and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. A receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days or 90 days for a dealer. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method. Depreciation Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments which significantly extend the useful lives of existing equipment are capitalized. Significant leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the term of the lease; equipment is depreciated over three to ten years. Depreciation expense was $6,380 and $6,173 for the nine month periods ending January 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Prepaid Expenses Certain expenses, primarily insurance and income taxes, have been prepaid and will be used within one year. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes net sales revenue upon the shipment of product to customers. Research and Development and Patents Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. The costs of obtaining patents, primarily legal fees, are capitalized and once obtained, amortized over the life of the respective patent on the straight-line method. Patent amortization expense for both the nine months ended January 31, 2017 and 2016 was $6,514. Patents related to products that have been developed by the Company. Patents pending relate to products under development. Use of Estimates The preparation 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 as of 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. Income Per Common Share Income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. When dilutive, stock options are included as share equivalents using the treasury stock method in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The Company has no outstanding options or other rights to acquire its unissued common shares. Comprehensive Income Components of comprehensive income include amounts that are included in the comprehensive income but are excluded from net income. During the three and nine month periods ending January 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no differences between the Company’s net income and comprehensive income. Income Taxes Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due and deferred taxes related primarily to differences in the methods of accounting for patents, inventories, certain accrued expenses and bad debt expenses for financial and income tax reporting purposes. The deferred income taxes represent the future tax consequences of those differences, which will be taxable in the future. The Company files tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and with the state of Illinois. Various tax years remain open to examinations, generally for three years after filed, although there are currently no ongoing tax examinations. Management’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. The provision for income taxes consists of the following components for the nine months ended January 31: 2017 2016 Current Federal $ 33,496 $ 21,492 State 10,885 7,534 Provision for Income Taxes $ 44,381 $ 29,026 The differences between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate are as follows: Nine Months ended January 31, 2017 2016 U.S. federal statutory tax rate 34.0 % 34.0 % State income tax expense, net of 5.0 5.0 Effect of graduated federal tax rates (7.4 ) (9.1 ) Effective Tax Rate 31.6 % 29.9 % Recent Accounting Pronouncements The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in Accounting Standards Certification (ASC). There have been a number of ASUs to date that amend the original text of ASCs. Those ASUs issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company. On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued Topic 842, its highly-anticipated leasing standard for both lessees and lessors. Under its core principle, a lessee will recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for all arrangements with terms longer than 12 months. Lessor accounting remains largely consistent with existing U.S. GAAP. The amendments are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. At inception, a lessee must classify all leases as either finance or operating. The Company intends to adopt Topic 842 upon extension of the current lease for its facilities in Elk Grove Village or upon entering into a new lease agreement for alternative facilities on or about May 1, 2018. The Company is investigating the effect of adoption of Topic 842 on its results of operations and financial condition. However, it is not anticipated that adoption of Topic 842 will have a material impact on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. In May 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2015-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2015-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2015-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2015-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2015-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard as of May 1, 2018. |
