Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Lots Sales Agreement On November 23, 2015, SeD Maryland Development LLC completed the $15,700,000 acquisition of Ballenger Run, a 197-acre land sub-division development located in Frederick County, Maryland. Previously, on May 28, 2014, the RBG Family, LLC entered into a $15,000,000 assignable real estate sales contract with NVR, by which RBG Family, LLC would facilitate the sale of the 197 acres of Ballenger Run to NVR. On December 10, 2014, NVR assigned this contract to SeD Maryland Development, LLC through execution of an assignment and assumption agreement and entered into a series of lot purchase agreements by which NVR would purchase 443 subdivided residential lots from SeD Maryland Development, LLC. On December 31, 2018, SeD Maryland entered into the Third Amendment to the Lot Purchase Agreement for Ballenger Run with NVR. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, SeD Maryland will convert the 5.9 acre CCRC parcel to 36 lots (the 28 feet wide villa lot) and sell to NVR. SeD Maryland pursued the required zoning approval to change the number of such lots from 85 to 121, which was approved in July 2019. Subsequently, SeD Maryland Development signed Fourth Amendment to the Lot Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which NVR agreed to purchase all of the new 121 lots. During the three months ended on September 30, 2023 and 2022, NVR purchased 0 lots. During the nine months ended on September 30, 2023 and 2022, NVR purchased 0 and 3 lots, respectively. Through September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NVR had purchased a total of 479 lots. Certain arrangements for the sale of buildable lots to NVR require the Company to credit NVR with an amount equal to one year of the FFB assessment. Under ASC 606, the credits to NVR are not in exchange for a distinct good or service and accordingly, the amount of the credit was recognized as the reduction of revenue. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the accrued balance due to NVR was $189,475. Leases The Company leases offices in Bethesda, Maryland, Magnolia, Texas, Singapore, Hong Kong, South Korea and China through leased spaces aggregating approximately 30,000 square feet, under leases expiring on various dates from November 2023 to March 2027. The leases have rental rates ranging from $1,401 to $23,020 per month. Our total rent expense under these office leases was $274,980 and $179,094 in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all the leases with terms greater than twelve months. We elected the practical expedient to not recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities for lease agreements with terms of 12 months or less. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rates, we estimate our incremental borrowing rates to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. Our incremental borrowings rates are at a range from 0.35% to 3.9% in 2023 and 2022, which were used as the discount rates. The Company’s weighted-average remaining lease term relating to its operating leases is 1.93 years. The balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of September 30, 2023 were $1,695,055 and $1,725,243 respectively. The balances of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2022 were $1,614,159 and $1,628,039, respectively.
