Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES The Company files separate tax returns in the United States and in Macau. The Macau Subsidiary has received approval from the Macau government to operate its business as a Macau Offshore Company (MOC), and was exempt from the Macau income tax for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Macau Subsidiary recorded a tax provision of approximately $34,000 and $0, respectively. The U.S. Federal net operating loss carryforward is subject to an IRS Section 382 limitation. As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had net deferred assets of $0.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the fiscal ended March 31, 2023 we determined our effective tax rate to be approximately (28.6%) and we recorded a tax provision of approximately $1.0 million which included a full valuation allowance of approximately $2.1 million for deferred tax assets that will more likely than not, expire prior to being realized. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, the Company determined its effective tax rate to be approximately 20.0% and the Company recorded a tax provision of approximately $0.1 million, which was net of a valuation reserve of approximately $78,000 for deferred tax assets that will most likely expire prior to being realized. The Company also recorded an income tax receivable of approximately $13,000 due to the availability of net operating loss carrybacks and alternative minimum tax credits that were realized for the year ended March 31, 2022. The income tax receivable was included as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022.

The Company performed an analysis in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which requires an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when determining whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are recoverable. The analysis performed to assess the realizability of the deferred tax assets included an evaluation of the pattern and timing of the reversals of temporary differences and the length of carryback and carryforward periods available under the applicable federal and state laws; and the amount and timing of future taxable income. On March 31, 2023, the Company evaluated the realizability of its deferred tax assets in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and concluded that a valuation allowance of approximately $2.1 million against deferred tax assets was necessary. The recognition of the remaining net deferred tax asset and corresponding tax benefit is based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, the Company’s history of earnings, cumulative net loss during the past three years and projected earnings for fiscal year 2024 and in the future. THE SINGING MACHINE COMPANY, INC AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2023 and 2022 At March 31, 2022, the Company has federal tax net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of approximately $1.1 million that begin to expire in the year 2025. The net operating loss carryforward is subject to an IRS Section 382 limitation that limited the amount available to use beginning in Fiscal 2020 to approximately $0.15 million per year. In addition, the Company has state tax net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.4 million that will begin to expire beginning in 2024. These tax net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to adjustment based on future changes in ownership.
