Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.  The footnote disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited.  Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of December 31, 2011 and for the year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates and assumptions have been used by management throughout the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements including in conjunction with establishing allowances for customer refunds, non-paying customers, dilution and fees, analyzing the recoverability of the carrying amount of intangible assets, estimating forfeitures of stock-based compensation and evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
