Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.  Nature of Business

  Microwave Filter Company, Inc.  operates primarily in the United States and principally in one industry.  The Company extends credit to business customers based upon ongoing credit evaluations.  Microwave Filter Company, Inc.  (MFC) designs, develops, manufactures and sells electronic filters, both for radio and microwave frequencies, to help process signal distribution and to prevent unwanted signals from disrupting transmit or receive operations.  Markets served include cable television, television and radio broadcast, satellite broadcast, mobile radio, commercial communications and defense electronics.  Niagara Scientific, Inc.  (NSI), a wholly owned subsidiary, custom designs case packing machines to automatically pack products into shipping cases.  Customers are processors of food and other commodity products with a need to reduce labor cost with a modest investment and quick payback.  For the last three years, NSI's sales have consisted of spare parts orders.

b.  Basis of Consolidation

  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Microwave Filter Company, Inc.  (MFC) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Niagara Scientific, Inc.  (NSI) and Microwave Filter International, LTD.  (MFI) (dormant); located in Syracuse, New York.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

c.  Revenue Recognition

  The Company recognizes revenue at the time products are shipped to customers and title and risk of loss have passed to the customer.  The Company is not required to install any of its products.  Payments received from customers in advance of products shipped are recorded as customer deposits until earned.

d.  Cash and Cash Equivalents

  The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.  The Company's cash is held at federally insured institutions and balances may periodically exceed insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to cash.  The Company also routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, as a consequence, believes that its trade accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited.

   

e.  Investments

  Investments generally consist of commercial paper, government backed obligations and other guaranteed commercial debt that have an original maturity of more than three months and a remaining maturity of less than one year. Investments are carried at cost which approximates market.  The Company's policy is to hold investments until maturity.  The Company's practice is to invest cash with financial institutions that have acceptable credit ratings.

f.  Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

  Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company's best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company's existing accounts receivable.  The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly.  Past due balances over 90 days are reviewed individually for collectibility.  Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.  The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

g.  Inventories and Reserve for Obsolescence

 Inventories are stated at the lower of cost determined on the first-in, first-out method or market.

  The Company records a reserve for obsolete or excess inventory.  The Company considers inventory quantities greater than a one-year supply based on current year activity as well as any additional specifically identified inventory to be excess.  The Company also provides for the total value of inventories that are determined to be obsolete based on criteria such as customer demand and changing technologies.

h.  Research and Development

  Costs in connection with research and development, which amount to $335,348 and $311,935 for the fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively, are charged to operations as incurred.  

i.  Property, Plant and Equipment

  Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.  Buildings and building improvements are depreciated over an estimated service life of 20 to 30 years.  Machinery and equipment are depreciated over an estimated useful life of 3 to 10 years.  Office equipment and fixtures are depreciated over an estimated useful life of 3 to 10 years.  At the time of sale or retirement, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in income.

   

j.  Income Taxes

  The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10 (Prior Authoritative Literature: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.  109, Accounting for Income Taxes).  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which are anticipated to be in effect when these differences reverse.  The deferred tax provision is the result of the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.  A valuation allowance is established when it is necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized.  The Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

  The Company adopted FASB ASC 740-10 (Prior Authoritative Literature: FASB Interpretation No.  48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No.  109 (FIN 48) as of October 1, 2007.  FASB ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.  Additionally, it provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. 

K.  Earnings Per Share

 The Company presents basic earnings per share ("EPS"), computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, and when applicable diluted EPS, which gives the effect to all dilutive potential shares outstanding (i.e.  options) during the period after restatement for any stock dividends.  Income (loss) used in the EPS calculation is net income (loss) for each year. There were no dilutive potential shares outstanding for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

l.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  The carrying values of the Company cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

  The Company currently does not trade in or utilize derivative financial instruments.

m.  Miscellaneous Non-operating Income

  Miscellaneous non-operating income generally consists of sales of scrap material, stock transfer fees, the forfeiture of non-refundable deposits and other incidental items.

n.  Use of Estimates

  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.  Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   

o.  Warranty Costs

  The Company established a warranty reserve which provides for the estimated cost of product returns based upon historical experience and any known conditions or circumstances.  Our warranty obligation is affected by product that does not meet specifications and performance requirements and any related costs of addressing such matters.  Warranty costs were approximately $7,000 and $8,500 for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

p.  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

  The carrying values of long-lived assets other than goodwill are generally evaluated for impairment only if events or changes in facts and circumstances indicate that carrying values may not be recoverable.  Any impairment determined would be recorded in the current period and would be measured by comparing the fair value of the related asset to its carrying value.  Fair value is generally determined by identifying estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets.  No impairments have been recorded for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

q.  New Accounting Pronouncements

   In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in fiscal year 2018.

 

  In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This standard sets forth management’s responsibility to evaluate, each reporting period, whether there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and if so, to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating this new standard and after adoption, we will incorporate this guidance in our assessment of going concern.

  The Company maintains both a non-contributory profit sharing plan and a contributory 401-K plan for all employees over the age of 21 with one year of service.  Annual contributions to the profit sharing plan are determined by the Board of Directors and are made from current or accumulated earnings, while contributions to the 401-K plan were matched at a rate of 100% of an employee's first 6% of contributions during fiscal 2014.  The maximum corporate match was 6% of an employee's compensation during fiscal 2014.

  The Company's matching contributions to the 401-K plan for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were $76,460 and $80,074, respectively.  Additionally, the Company may make discretionary contributions to the non-contributory profit sharing plan.  These contributions were $0 in 2014 and 2013.

As required by FASB ASC 740 the Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realization of its deferred tax assets.  The Company has determined that, at this time, it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize all of the benefits of federal and state deferred tax assets, and, as a result, a valuation allowance was established.  The research and experimentation tax credit carry forwards and NOL carry forwards expire in 2033.  At September 30, 2014, the Company's federal AMT credit can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the fiscal years September 30, 2012 through September 30, 2014.  The Company has no uncertain tax positions.  As of September 30, 2014 and 2013 there is no accrual for interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
