SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The Company's functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"); however, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars ("USD"). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to make the financial statements not misleading.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements is in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Joway Health, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and controlled VIEs. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810 "Consolidation" ("ASC 810"), the Company is required to include in its consolidated financial statements the financial statements of its variable interest entities ("VIEs"). ASC 810 requires a VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's residual returns. VIEs are those entities in which a company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risk of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the company is the primary beneficiary of the entity.

Based on the various Contractual Agreements, the Company is able to exercise control over the VIEs, and to obtain the full economic benefits. The terms of the exclusive option agreement are currently exercisable and legally enforceable under PRC laws and regulations. The minimum amount of consideration permitted by the applicable PRC law to exercise the option does not represent a financial barrier or disincentive for the Company to exercise its rights under the exclusive option agreement. A simple majority vote of the Company's board of directors is required to pass a resolution to exercise its rights under the exclusive option agreement, for which consent of the shareholder of VIEs is not required. Therefore, this gives the Company the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact VIEs' economic performance. The Company's ability to exercise effective control, together with the consulting service agreements and the equity pledge agreements, give the Company the rights to receive substantially all of the economic benefits from VIEs in consideration for the services provided by its wholly owned subsidiaries in China. Accordingly, as the primary beneficiary of VIEs and in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Joway Shengshi, Joway Technology, Joway Decoration, and Shengtang Trading, as VIEs of Junhe Consulting, has been consolidated in the Company's financial statements. Sales from Joway Shengshi, Joway Technology, Joway Decoration, and Shengtang Trading are included in the Company's total sales, their incomes or losses from operations are consolidated with the Company's, and the Company's net income or loss includes net income or loss from Joway Shengshi, Joway Technology, Joway Decoration, and Shengtang Trading..

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in USD. The functional currency of the Company is RMB. The consolidated financial statements are translated into USD from RMB at period-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Equity accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the equity transactions occurred. The resulting transaction adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders' equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net income.

	December 31,
	2019		2018
Year ended RMB: USD Exchange rate		6.9762		6.87644
Average yearly RMB: USD Exchange rate		6.8985		6.61464

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into USD at the rates used in translation.

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 foreign currency translation adjustments of $(49,044) and $(268,722) respectively, have been reported as other comprehensive loss in the consolidated financial statements.

Other Comprehensive Income

Other comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during the period from transactions and other events, excluding the changes resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. Substantially all of the Company's cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC, and no deposits are covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 157 Fair Value Measurements) establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as the following:

● Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

● Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

● Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, other receivable, accounts payable, other payable, and amounts due from related parties generally approximate their fair market values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. ASC 825-10 "Financial Instruments" allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

Cash

For financial reporting purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at any point during the period of the financial statements presented. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. On a periodic basis, the Company reviews the composition of the accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these allowances. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company allowance $2,591 and $2,628 for doubtful accounts, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, as determined by the specific identification method on contract level (for each individual contract, inventories cost flow is determined by weighted-average method), or the net realizable value, which is determined on selling prices less any further costs expected to be incurred for completion and disposal. The Company regularly evaluates the composition of its inventories to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventories to determine whether valuation allowance is required. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded $106,997 and $77,149 for inventory valuation allowance, respectively.

Advances to suppliers

Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for inventory items or construction in progress. The advance payments are meant to ensure preferential pricing and delivery. The amounts advanced under such arrangements totalled $56,418 and $119,022 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Investments

Investment in which the Company has a 20% to 50% interest is accounted for by the equity method. Under the equity method the carrying value of the investment is adjusted for the Company's proportionate share of the investee's income or loss.

Investment in which the Company has less than a 20% interest is accounted for by the cost method. Under the cost method, investments are carried at cost and income is recorded when dividends are received from those investees.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and include expenditures that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Building	20 years
Operating Equipment	10 years
Office furniture and equipment	3 or 5 years
Vehicles	10 years

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are charged directly to expenses as incurred. Significant renewals and betterment to buildings and equipment are capitalized. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life or the life of the lease.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets mainly consist of land use rights. All land located in the PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or company. The land use rights granted to the Company are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term of 50 years. Other intangible assets are software programs that are amortized over their estimated useful life of 10 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed annually as to whether their carrying value has become impaired, pursuant to the guidelines established in FASB ASC 360 (formerly SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets). The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from the related operations. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation and amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. The Company did not record any impairment loss for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the company's customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

With respect to sales of product to both franchisee and non-franchisee customers, the Company transfers control, invoices the customer and recognizes revenue upon shipment to the customer. Sales prices are based on fixed price lists that are different depending on whether the price list is for franchisee customers or for non-franchisee customers. Sales, value add and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

Shipping Costs

Shipping costs are included in selling expenses and totalled $49,399 and $111,089 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law and associated legislations of the PRC. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes" (formerly SFAS No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes), which is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. ASC 740 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, of which the timing and amount are uncertain.

According to ASC 740, the evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition.

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 "Earnings per share". The Company's basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the assumption that any dilutive options or warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, the Company's outstanding stock warrants are assumed to be exercised, and funds thus obtained were assumed to be used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. There were no dilutive instruments outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Segment Information

The Company follows FASB ASC 280-Segment Reporting, which requires that companies disclose segment data based on how management makes decision about allocating resources to segments and evaluating their performance.

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, management has determined that the Company is operating in three reportable business segments, (1) Healthcare Knit Goods Series, (2) Daily Healthcare and Personal Care Series, and (3) Wellness House and Activated Water Machine Series. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance should be adopted on a prospective basis for the annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company adopted the standard in 2019. Adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated statement of earnings in 2019.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, "Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting," which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services and aligns most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. ASU 2018-07 becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the standard in 2019. Adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated statement of earnings in 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard outlined a comprehensive lease accounting model that superseded the previous lease guidance and required lessees to recognize lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets for all leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The guidance also changed the definition of a lease and expanded the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. The Company adopted the standard on December 15, 2019. Adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated statement of earnings in 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the standard in 2019. Adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated statement of earnings in 2019.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.
