The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of BAB, Inc. have been prepared pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for Form
10
-Q. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Uses of
E
stimates
 
The preparation of the financial statements and accompanying notes are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Accounts and Notes Receivable
 
Receivables are carried at original invoice amount less estimates for doubtful accounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by reviewing and identifying troubled accounts and by using historical collection experience. A receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding
90
days past the due date. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded as income when received. Certain receivables have been converted to unsecured interest-bearing notes.
 
Property, Plant and Equipment
 
Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives are
3
to
7
years for property and equipment and
10
years, or term of lease if less, for leasehold improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that materially extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized.
 
Advertising and Promotion Costs
 
The Company expenses advertising and promotion costs as incurred. All advertising and promotion costs were related to the Company’s franchise operations.
 
Leases
 
The company accounts for leases under ASC
842.
Lease arrangements are determined at the inception of the contract. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current and long-term operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. 
 
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do
not
provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease terms
may
include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In
December 2019,
the FASB issued ASU
2019
-

“Income Taxes (Topic
740
): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” 
which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU
2019
-
12
removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic
740
and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. 
 
The amendments in ASU
2019
-
2
are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2020,
including interim periods therein. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements have yet been issued.
 
If an entity early adopts these amendments in an interim period, it should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. In addition, an entity that elects to early adopt the standard is required to adopt all of the amendments in the same period (i.e., an entity cannot select which amendments to early adopt). The Company is still evaluating the specific effect of this change. The Company will adopt ASU

 for fiscal year ending 
November 30, 2021.
 
Management does
not
believe that there are any other recently issued and effective or
not
yet effective pronouncements that would have or are expected to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
