FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

3.   FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

 

Assets and liabilities of the Company's German operations are translated from Euros (the functional currency) into U.S. dollars (the reporting currency) at period-end exchange rates; equity transactions are translated at historical rates; and income and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period. Net foreign currency exchange gains or losses resulting from such translations are excluded from the results of operations but are included in other comprehensive loss and accumulated in a separate component of stockholders' deficit. Accumulated other comprehensive loss approximated ($36,000) and ($31,000) at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
