Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Schedule of Income Tax (Benefit) Expense

Deferred tax benefit at December 31, 2016 is related to the release of valuation allowance against substantially all of the Company's federal and state deferred tax assets as the Company concluded such assets were fully realizable. The need for a valuation allowance requires an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when determining whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are recoverable. Such assessment is required on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis. In making such assessment, significant weight is given to evidence that can be verified objectively. After the consideration of both positive and negative evidence to assess the recoverability of the Company's net deferred tax assets during the 2016 tax year, the Company determined that it was more likely than not the Company would realize the majority of the value of federal and state deferred tax assets given the current certainties regarding the timing of profits and forecasted future profitability. The Company will continue to monitor the likelihood that it will be able to recover the deferred tax assets in the future. The components of income taxes for the periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:
