Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | Income Taxes The Company recognizes deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income or reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on this consideration, the Company determined the realization of a majority of the net deferred tax assets do not meet the more likely than not criteria and a valuation allowance was recorded against the majority of the net deferred tax assets at July 31, 2014. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended July 31, 2014 was impacted by the valuation allowance and a discrete item associated with uncertain tax positions. The Company is currently under IRS examination for the year ended January 31, 2013. The years ended January 31, 2012 and January 31, 2014 remain open for examination by the IRS. The years ended January 31, 2010 through January 31, 2014 remain open for examination by state tax authorities. The Company is not currently under any state examinations. The specific timing of when the resolution of each tax position will be reached is uncertain. As of July 31, 2014, we do not believe that there are any positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. |
