4. Foreign Currency Remeasurement

 

The U.S. dollar has been determined to be the functional currency for the net assets of the Company’s laboratory in Freiburg, Germany. The transactions are recorded in the local currencies and are remeasured at each reporting date using the historical rates for nonmonetary assets and liabilities and current exchange rates for monetary assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. Exchange gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities are recognized in other income (loss). The Company recognized a loss of approximately $2,500 and $23,000 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
