Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Significant Accounting Policies | 4. Significant Accounting Policies Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on account and demand deposits with maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions may exceed insured limits at various times during the year and subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. Cash and cash equivalents include restricted cash at December 31, 2022 and 2021 totaling $411,016 and $0, respectively. Receivables - Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. Receivables are reviewed individually for collectability. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, allowances may be required. Worksport Ltd. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2022 and 2021 4. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) The Company offers credit terms on the sale of the Company’s products to a significant majority of the Company’s customers and requires no collateral from these customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition and, if needed, maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon the Company’s historical experience and a specific review of accounts receivable at the end of each period. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts. Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on a weighted average basis. Cost includes purchase price of materials, freight, and related costs required to bring the goods to Company warehouses. Warranties - The Company currently offers a limited lifetime warranty against defective products out-of-the-box. Customers who are not satisfied with their purchase may attempt to have their purchases reimbursed outside of the warranty period. Revenue Recognition – In accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, sales are recognized when (1) products are shipped, with no right of return except for defective products, and the title and risk of loss has passed to customers; and (2) when they are delivered based on the terms of the sale, and there is an identifiable contract with a customer with defined performance obligations, the transaction price is determinable, and the entity has fulfilled its performance obligation. Revenue related to shipping and handling costs billed to customers is included in net sales, and the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold. Property and Equipment - Capital assets are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Schedule of Estimated Useful Lives of Property and Equipment
Furniture and equipment |  | 5 years
Automobile |  | 5 years
Computers |  | 3 years
Leasehold improvements |  | 15 years
Building |  | 15 years
Share-based payments - The Company offers a share option plan for its directors, officers, employees, and consultants. ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values at the time of grant. That expense is recognized over the estimated period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of the performance commitment date or performance completion date. Worksport Ltd. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 2022 and 2021 4. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Income Taxes - Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between taxable income and pretax financial income, and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the consolidated financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more-likely-than-not the positions will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Foreign Currency Items - Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the dates of the transactions. All exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Financial Instruments - Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 825, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s current financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and promissory note payable, approximates their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the loan payable approximates fair value as its interest rate fluctuates with market interest rates. Related Party Transactions - All transactions with related parties are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount. Intangible Assets and Impairment – Patents and other intangibles are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets, such as trademarks with indefinite lives, are not amortized. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment at least annually or when events or circumstances arise that indicate the existence of impairment. The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment, and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no impairment losses related to intangible assets. Sales Taxes – Certain jurisdictions impose a sales tax on Company sales to nonexempt customers. The Company collects these taxes from customers and remits the entire amount as required by the applicable law. The Company excluded from revenues and expenses the tax collected and remitted. Lease Accounting - On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, which requires lessees to recognize operating leases on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities based on the value of the discounted future lease payments. Expanded disclosures about the nature and terms of lease agreements are required and are included in note 19. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Any recently issued Accounting Standards Codification guidance has either been implemented or is not significant to the Company. Worksport Ltd.
