Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	Note 8: Income Tax The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax and various state, local and foreign income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The Company’s domestic and foreign tax liabilities are subject to the allocation of revenues and expenses in different jurisdictions and the timing of recognizing revenues and expenses. Additionally, the amount of income taxes paid is subject to the Company’s interpretation of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which it files. The Company provides for income taxes on an interim basis based on an estimate of the effective tax rate for the year. This estimate is reassessed on a quarterly basis. Discrete tax items are accounted for in the quarterly period in which they occur. The tax expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 was $985,000 on profit before tax of $2,667,000 (an effective tax rate of 36.9%). The tax expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $249,000 on a loss before tax for the quarter of $1,236,000 (an effective tax rate of (20.1%)). For the first nine months of fiscal 2014, tax expense was $2,773,000 on profit before tax of $6,453,000 (an effective tax rate of 43.0%) and for the first nine months of 2013, tax expense was $507,000 on a loss before tax of $853,000 (an effective tax rate of (59.4%)). The tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2014 included a discrete item for the impact of return to provision adjustments to reduce tax expense by $109,000. In addition, there was a discrete tax charge of $278,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 for the effect of a tax rate decrease in the UK applied to the net deferred tax assets in that country and there was a $67,000 benefit recognized in the second quarter for the benefit of losses in China recognized against current year profits. The primary reasons for the negative effective tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2013 are as follows: 1. no tax benefit was recognized for losses in certain foreign subsidiaries; 2. there was a cash dividend from the Company’s subsidiary in Australia which caused a discrete increase to tax expense of $178,000; 3. there was a reduction in the effective state tax rate applied to deferred tax balances (based on both actual and expected future state tax apportionments and profitability) which caused a discrete tax expense of $675,000; 4. the changes on the fiscal 2012 tax return from amounts estimated at provision, including the impact of a changed position on the 2012 and prior year returns to take the foreign tax credit rather than a deduction, created a discrete tax benefit of $414,000; and 5. other discrete taxes increased tax expense by $66,000 In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, a discrete tax benefit was booked reducing the Company’s net tax liability for uncertain tax positions of $91,000. U.S. Federal tax returns through fiscal 2010 are generally no longer subject to review by tax authorities; however, tax loss carryforwards from years before fiscal 2011 are still subject to review and adjustment. In international jurisdictions including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Singapore and the UK, which comprise a significant portion of the Company’s operations, the years that may be examined vary by country. In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company was notified by tax authorities in China of a tax review and they have requested certain documentation for the calendar years 2010 and 2012. The Company’s most significant foreign subsidiary in Brazil is subject to audit for the calendar years 2008 – 2013. The Company has identified no new uncertain tax positions during the nine month period ended March 31, 2014 for which it is currently likely that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. Accounting for income taxes requires estimates of future benefits and tax liabilities. Due to the temporary differences in the timing of recognition of items included in income for accounting and tax purposes, deferred tax assets or liabilities are recorded to reflect the impact arising from these differences on future tax payments. With respect to recorded tax assets, the Company assesses the likelihood that the asset will be realized by addressing the positive and negative evidence to determine whether realization is more likely than not to occur. If realization is in doubt because of uncertainty regarding future profitability, the Company provides a valuation allowance related to the asset to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Should any significant changes in the tax law or the estimate of the necessary valuation allowance occur, the Company would record the impact of the change, which could have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. No valuation allowance has been recorded for the Company’s domestic federal net operating loss (NOL) carry forwards. The Company continues to believe that due to forecasted future taxable income and certain tax planning strategies available, it is more likely than not that it will be able to realize the benefit of the federal NOL carry forwards. $67,000 of the valuation allowance for subsidiary NOL’s in China has been released to reflect a tax benefit against current year profits.
