Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 10 – Income Taxes At December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $78,000 of capital loss carryforwards and $2,698,000 of net operating loss carryforwards, $125,000 of New York State investment tax credit carryforwards and $683,000 of federal research and development tax credits. If not utilized, a portion of the capital loss carryover will expire in 2014, the investment tax credits expire from 2014 through 2028 and the research and development tax credits expire from 2028-2033. Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of taxable income and the character of that income, management believes it is more likely than not that these components of the Company’s deferred tax assets will be fully utilized. The Company did not provide for an allowance against its total net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 but has provided for a partial valuation allowance against its total net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2012 of approximately $475,000 attributable to these components.
