Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 7 – Income Taxes: The Company calculates its interim income tax provision in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes in interim periods. At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date income or loss. The tax expense or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, or judgment on the attainment of beginning-of-the-year deferred taxes in future years is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs. The computation of the annual expected effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year and permanent and temporary differences. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, more experience is acquired, additional information is obtained or the tax environment changes. To the extent that the estimated annual effective tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on prior quarters is included in tax expense for the current quarter. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.6 million, which represents an effective tax rates of 20.2%. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.9 million, which represents an effective tax rates of 26.2%. The decrease in the effective tax rates is primarily due to the expected annual increase in excludable foreign income, and an expected annual reduction in non-deductible compensation.
The difference between the total statutory Federal income tax rate and the actual effective income tax rate is accounted for as follows:
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |
|  | 2019 |  |  | 2018 |
Statutory Federal income tax rate |  |  | 21.0 | % |  |  | 21.0 | %
State and local income taxes, net of Federal income tax benefit |  |  | 3.0 | % |  |  | 3.6 | %
Current year untaxed foreign income |  |  | (7.6 | %) |  |  | (6.5 | %)
Foreign taxes |  |  | 2.3 | % |  |  | 4.6 | %
GILTI tax |  |  | 1.8 | % |  |  | 3.0 | %
Compensation related |  |  | 0.6 | % |  |  | 1.1 | %
Federal tax credits |  |  | (0.5 | %) |  |  | (0.6 | %)
Other |  |  | (0.4 | %) |  |  | 0.0 | %
Effective income tax rate |  |  | 20.2 | % |  |  | 26.2 | %
