INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [Abstract]

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed financial statements of CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (the "Company") as of September 30, 2012 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected as required by the SEC. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period.

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 220, "Comprehensive Income."  The new guidance requires the Company to present Comprehensive Income either on one continuous statement of Income and Comprehensive Income, or on a separate Statement of Comprehensive Income.  The new guidance does not change the computation of Net Income or Comprehensive Income.

The Company maintains its cash in two financial institutions.  The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.  From time to time, the Company's balances may exceed these limits.  As of September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $289,000 of uninsured balances.  The Company limits its credit risk by selecting financial institutions considered to be highly credit worthy.
