Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	1. Nature of Business Reliv’ International, Inc. (the Company) produces a proprietary line of nutritional supplements addressing basic nutrition, specific wellness needs, weight management, and sports nutrition. These products are sold by subsidiaries of the Company to a sales force of independent distributors of the Company that sell products directly to consumers. The Company and its subsidiaries sell products to distributors throughout the United States and in Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its foreign and domestic subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents The Company's policy is to consider the following as cash and cash equivalents: demand deposits and short-term investments with a maturity of three Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Product cost includes raw materials, labor, and overhead costs and is accounted for on a first first Sales aids and promotional materials inventories represent distributor kits, product brochures, and other sales and business development materials which are held for sale to distributors. Cost of the sales aids and promotional materials held for sale are capitalized as inventories and subsequently recorded to cost of goods sold upon recognition of revenue when sold to distributors. All other advertising and promotional costs are expensed when incurred. Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant, and equipment are stated on the cost basis. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line or an accelerated method over the useful life of the related assets. Generally, computer equipment and software are depreciated over 3 5 7 39 Foreign Currency Translation and Transaction Gains or Losses All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statements of net income (loss) amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the year. The gains and losses resulting from the changes in exchange rates from year to year have been reported in other comprehensive income (loss). The foreign currency translation adjustment is the only component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. If applicable, foreign currency translation adjustments exclude income tax expense (benefit) as certain of the Company’s investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries are deemed to be reinvested for an indefinite period of time. Foreign currency transaction gains (losses) were $32,577 $20,659 2018 2017, Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share Basic earnings (loss) per common share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive common shares consist of outstanding stock options, outstanding stock warrants, and convertible preferred stock. See Note 9 Stock-Based Compensation The Company has stock-based incentive plans under which it may 8 The Company accounts for options granted to non-employees and warrants granted to distributors under the fair value approach required by FASB ASC Topic 505 50, Fair Value Measurements FASB ASC Topic 820, 6 Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is computed using the liability method. The primary differences between financial statement and taxable income result from financial statement accruals and reserves and differences between depreciation and amortization for book and tax purposes. Unrecognized tax benefits are accounted for as required by FASB ASC Topic 740 not 12 Advertising Costs of sales aids and promotional materials are capitalized as inventories. All other advertising and promotional costs are expensed when incurred. The Company recorded $19,300 $22,300 2018 2017, Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses, which are charged to selling, general, and administrative expenses as incurred, were $473,000 $488,000 2018 2017, Amortizable Intangible Assets The Company records intangible assets based on management’s determination of the fair value of the respective assets at the time of acquisition. Determining the fair value of intangible assets is judgmental and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions of future company operations. The Company bases its fair value estimates and related asset lives on assumptions it believes to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may Intangible assets estimated to have finite lives are amortized over their estimated economic life under the straight-line method; such method correlates to management’s estimate of the assets’ economic benefit. Based on management’s estimates at origination, these lives range from two seventeen December 31, 2018, six eleven Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2018, No. 2014 09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers not $367,568 zero The new revenue standard defines a five 20 40 not Under this new revenue standard, the Company determined that the timeframe for recognizing the revenue performance obligation for membership fees-type revenue would be lengthened to more closely correlate with the distributor (including customer) membership terms of generally twelve December 31, 2017, $367,568.

Accounting standards utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions. Long-term debt thirty Note receivable fifteen Marketable securities The carrying value of other financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short maturities or variable-rate nature of the respective balances.
