Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the consolidated accounts of Agritek and its’ wholly owned subsidiaries MediSwipe, AVHI, The American Hemp Trading Company, Inc., a Colorado Corporation (dba 77Acres, Inc.) and PPI. PPI, a Florida corporation, was originally formed on July 1, 2013 as The American Hemp Trading Company, Inc. (“HempFL”) and on August 27, 2014, HempFL changed its’ name to PPI. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original term of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

The Company records accounts receivable from amounts due from its customers upon the shipment of products. The allowance for losses is established through a provision for losses charged to expenses. Receivables are charged against the allowance for losses when management believes collectability is unlikely. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing receivables, based on evaluation of the collectability of the accounts and prior loss experience. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluations, this estimate is susceptible to significant change in the near term. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, based on the above criteria, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $44,068.

Inventory

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the first in first out (FIFO) method. Provision for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is made based on management analysis or inventory levels and future sales forecasts.

Notes receivable

Notes receivable

	March 31, 2019		December 31, 2018
Client 1	$	190,000	$	170,000
Client 2		—		—
Total	$	190,000	$	170,000

• Note receivable from Client 1 is pursuant to a five (5) year operational and exclusive licensing agreement with a third party who leases a 15,000-sq. ft. approved cultivation facility located in San Juan, Puerto Rico (see Note 10).

• Note receivable from Client 2 is pursuant to a five (5) year operational and exclusive licensing agreement with a third party who leases a 10,000-sq. ft. approved cultivation facility located in Washington State (see Note 10). During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company made an additional advance of $15,000, and as of December 31, 2018, the Company recorded an allowance of $115,000 for impairment.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs

The costs related to the issuance of debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method through the maturities of the related debt.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of it financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. 

For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. 

Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount

Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount

The Company may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs may be paid in the form of cash, or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs prior to maturity a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. 

Original Issue Discount

Original Issue Discount

For certain convertible debt issued, the Company may provide the debt holder with an original issue discount. The original issue discount would be recorded to debt discount, reducing the initial carrying value of the note and is amortized to interest expense through the maturity of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs prior to maturity a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. 

Marketable Securities and Other Comprehensive Income

Marketable Securities and Other Comprehensive Income

The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for-sale securities, which are carried at their fair value based on the quoted market prices of the securities with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are included in net earnings in the period earned or incurred.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, and except for land, depreciation is provided by use of a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company reviews property and equipment for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of assets may not be recoverable. In February, 2017, the Company entered into a land purchase contract to acquire approximately 80 acres including water and mineral rights. The total cost of the land was $129,555. The Company paid $41,554 at closing and issued a note payable for $88,000. The Company is on the deed of trust of the property with a remaining note balance of $21,500 and $21,500 due the seller as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are as follows:

Furniture and equipment	5 years
Manufacturing equipment	7 years

The Company's property and equipment consisted of the following at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

	March 31, 2019			December 31, 2018
Furniture and equipment	$	215,006		$	215,006
Land		129,555			129,555
Accumulated depreciation		(72,026	)		(61,928	)
Balance	$	272,535		$	282,633

Depreciation expense of $10,098 and $8,430 was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Deferred rent

Deferred rent

The Company calculates the total cost of the lease for the entire lease period and divides that amount by the number of months of the lease. The result is the average monthly expense and is charged to rent expense with the offset to deferred rent, irrespective of the actual amount paid. The amounts paid are charged to the deferred rent account. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company has a balance of $24,916 in deferred rent which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products, licensing agreements and contracts to perform pilot studies by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. For the comparative periods, revenue has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605 — Revenue Recognition. Under ASC 605, revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the performance of service has been rendered to a customer or delivery has occurred; (3) the amount of fee to be paid by a customer is fixed and determinable; and (4) the collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting Topic 606 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level. 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value: 

• Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 - Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company's assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

The carrying amounts of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, certain notes payable and notes payable - related party, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The following table represents the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, for each fair value hierarchy level:

March 31, 2019		Derivative Liabilities		Total
Level I	$	—	$	—
Level II	$	—	$	—
Level III	$	1,728,062	$	1,728,062
December 31, 2018
Level I	$	—	$	—
Level II	$	—	$	—
Level III	$	1,561,232	$	1,561,232

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at the tax rate expected to be in effect at the time of realization. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates of the date of enactment.

ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. Interest and penalties are classified as a component of interest and other expenses. To date, the Company has not been assessed, nor paid, any interest or penalties.

Uncertain tax positions are measured and recorded by establishing a threshold for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Only tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized or continue to be recognized. The Company’s tax years subsequent to 2005 remain subject to examination by federal and state tax jurisdictions.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share are computed in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share". Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss), after deducting preferred stock dividends accumulated during the period, by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities, if any, outstanding during the period. As of March 31, 2019, there were warrants and options to purchase 320,426 shares of common stock and the Company’s outstanding convertible debt is convertible into approximately 4,435,649 shares of common stock. These amounts are not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their impact is antidilutive.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation 

The Company accounts for stock awards issued to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The measurement date is the earlier of (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty's performance is complete. Stock awards granted to non-employees are valued at their respective measurement dates based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock and recognized as expense during the period in which services are provided. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, the Company recorded stock- based compensation of $0, and $97,500, respectively, (see Note 9).

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

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

Advertising

Advertising

The Company records advertising costs as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, advertising expense was $63 and $17,450, respectively.

Leases

Leases

The Company accounts for leases under ASU 2016-02. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company leases an office space and several retail locations used to conduct our business. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, applying the package of practical expedients to leases that commenced before the effective date whereby the Company elected to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases; (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, at the inception of a contract the Company assess whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. Our assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether we have the right to direct the use of the asset. We allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments. Leases entered into prior to January 1, 2019, are accounted for under ASC 840 and were not reassessed. We have elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.

Operating lease ROU assets represent the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in rent in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
