+Added: This evaluation
+Added: involves subjective determinations and requires management to make judgments about the individual deliverables and whether such deliverables
+Added: are separate from other aspects of the contractual relationship.
Deliverables are considered separate units of accounting provided that:
−Removed: (i) the delivered item(s) has
−Removed: value to the customer on a standalone basis and (ii) if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s),
−Removed: delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially within its control.

−Removed: typically the term of the Company’s research and development obligations.
−Removed: If there is no discernible pattern of performance or objectively
−Removed: measurable performance measures do not exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under the arrangement on a straight-line basis over
−Removed: the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations.
−Removed: Conversely, if the pattern of performance in which the service
−Removed: is provided to the customer can be determined and objectively measurable performance measures exist, then the Company recognizes revenue
−Removed: under the arrangement using the proportional performance method.
−Removed: Revenue recognized is limited to the lesser of the cumulative amount
−Removed: of payments received or the cumulative amount of revenue earned, as determined using the straight-line method or proportional performance
−Removed: method, as applicable, as of the period ending date.
−Removed: At the inception of an arrangement that includes
−Removed: milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether each milestone is substantive and at risk to both parties on the basis of the contingent
−Removed: nature of the milestone.
+Added: (i) the delivered item(s) has value to the customer on a standalone basis and (ii) if the arrangement includes a general right of return
+Added: relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially within

+Added: purpose without the receipt of the remaining element(s), whether the value of the deliverable is dependent on the undelivered item(s),
+Added: and whether there are other vendors that can provide the undelivered element(s).
+Added: Company recognizes arrangement consideration allocated to each unit of accounting when all of the revenue recognition criteria in ASC
+Added: 606 are satisfied for that particular unit of accounting.
+Added: In the event that a deliverable does not represent a separate unit of accounting,
+Added: the Company recognizes revenue from the combined unit of accounting over the Company’s contractual or estimated performance period
+Added: for the undelivered elements, which is typically the term of the Company’s research and development obligations.
+Added: If there is no
+Added: discernible pattern of performance or objectively measurable performance measures do not exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under
+Added: the arrangement on a straight-line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations.
+Added: if the pattern of performance in which the service is provided to the customer can be determined and objectively measurable performance
+Added: measures exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under the arrangement using the proportional performance method.

−Removed: period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740.
−Removed: In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC
−Removed: 740 is complete.
−Removed: To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is
−Removed: able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements.
−Removed: cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of
−Removed: the provision of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act.
−Removed: While the Company is able to make reasonable
−Removed: estimates of the impact of the reduction in corporate rate and the deemed repatriation transition tax, the final impact of the Tax Act
−Removed: may differ from these estimates, due to, among other things, changes in our interpretations and assumptions, additional guidance that
−Removed: may be issued by the I.R.S., and actions the Company may take.
−Removed: The Company is continuing to gather additional information to determine
−Removed: the final impact.
−Removed: Valuation of Deferred Tax Assets
−Removed: A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the
−Removed: Company’s deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
−Removed: In assessing the need for the valuation
−Removed: allowance, management considers, among other things, projections of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning
−Removed: If the Company determines that sufficient negative evidence exists, then it will consider recording a valuation allowance
−Removed: against a portion or all of the deferred tax assets in that jurisdiction.
−Removed: If, after recording a valuation allowance, the Company’s
−Removed: projections of future taxable income and other positive evidence considered in evaluating the need for a valuation allowance prove, with
−Removed: the benefit of hindsight, to be inaccurate, it could prove to be more difficult to support the realization of its deferred tax assets.
−Removed: As a result, an additional valuation allowance could be required, which would have an adverse impact on its effective income tax rate
−Removed: Conversely, if, after recording a valuation allowance, the Company determines that sufficient positive evidence exists in
−Removed: the jurisdiction in which the valuation allowance was recorded, it may reverse a portion or all of the valuation allowance in that jurisdiction.

−Removed: the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common
−Removed: stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
−Removed: Diluted earnings per share excludes all dilutive
−Removed: potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
−Removed: Commitments and Contingencies
+Added: The first step is to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the
+Added: resolution of any related appeals or litigations based on the technical merits of that position.
+Added: The second step is to measure a tax
+Added: position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefits recognized in the financial statements.
+Added: tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
+Added: Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent
+Added: period in which the threshold is met.
+Added: Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should
+Added: be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer satisfied.
+Added: Penalties and interest
+Added: incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred.
+Added: No significant penalty or interest
+Added: relating to income taxes has been incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.
