| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 1–DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Bellevue Life Sciences Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 25, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity since inception relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”) which is described below. The Company will not generate any
operating revenues until after the completion of an initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company
has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering (the “Registration Statement”) was declared effective on February 9, 2023. On February 14, 2023, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 6,000,000 units (“Units” and, with respect to the common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”), generating gross proceeds of $60,000,000, which is described in Note 3.
On February 17, 2023, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full. The closing of the issuance and sale of the additional Units occurred (the “Over-Allotment Option Units”) on February 21, 2023. The total aggregate issuance by the Company of 900,000 Over-Allotment Option Units at a price of $10.00 per unit generated total gross proceeds of $9,000,000.
Simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Units, the Company consummated the private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 430,000 Units (the “Private Placement Units”), to Bellevue Global Life Sciences Investors LLC (the “Sponsor”) at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $4,300,000. Each Unit and Private Placement Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”), a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (the “Public Warrants” and “Private Placement Warrants” and collectively, the “Warrants”) and one right which entitles the holder thereof to receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock (the “Public Rights” and Private Placement Rights” and collectively, the “Rights”), as described in Notes 3 and 4.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of Private Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting fees and taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).
Upon closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Private Placement, the sale of the Over-Allotment Option Units and the additional Trust Account funding, a total of $70,207,500 was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and invested only in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”) having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. The Company will provide its holders of the outstanding shares of its Common Stock sold in the Initial Public Offering (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares (as described in Note 1) for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (initially anticipated to be $10.175 per Public Share plus any pro rata interest then in the Trust Account, net of taxes payable). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 5). These Public Shares were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”). In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon such consummation of a Business Combination and a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or other legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Initial Stockholders (as defined below) have agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined below in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of a Business Combination.
Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company adopted an insider trading
policy which requires insiders to (i) refrain from purchasing shares during certain blackout periods and when they are in possession of any material non-public information and (ii) to clear all trades with the Company’s legal counsel or compliance
officer prior to execution. In addition, the Company’s Sponsor and any other holders of the Company’s common stock prior to the Initial Public Offering (or their permitted transferees (the “Initial Stockholders”)) have agreed to waive their
redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, Placement Shares and Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of more of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Initial Public Offering.
The Company’s Initial Stockholders and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”), the representative of
the underwriters, have agreed not to propose or vote in favor of an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (A) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in
connection with the Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within nine months or such other time period as the stockholders may approve from the closing of the Initial
Public Offering (the “Combination Period”) or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem
their Public shares in conjunction with such an amendment.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly and as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and
the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.
The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from
the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares (defined in Note 4) and Placement Shares held by them if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Initial Stockholders acquire Public
Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The
underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to the deferred underwriting commission (see Note 5) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such
amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining
available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) may be less than approximately $10.175 per share initially held in the Trust Account. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the
Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective partner business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in
the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the
extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers
(except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective partner businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of
any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Certain information or footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting
of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2023, or for any future periods.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $1,181 in its operating bank account and working capital deficit of $482,395. The Company’s liquidity needs prior to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering had been satisfied through proceeds from advances from related party and from the issuance of common stock. Subsequent to the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company’s liquidity was satisfied through the net proceeds from the consummation of the Initial Public Offering and the proceeds from the Private Placement held outside of the Trust Account.
Based on the foregoing and the limited amount of working capital that the Company received into the
operating account from the Private Placement, management believes that the Company will not have sufficient working capital to meet its working capital needs through the earlier of the consummation of an initial Business Combination or nine months
from the Initial Public Offering. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Over this time period, the Company will be using the
remaining funds held outside of the Trust Account for paying existing accounts payable, identifying and evaluating prospective initial Business Combination candidates, performing due diligence on prospective target businesses, paying for travel
expenditures, selecting the target business to merge with or acquire, and structuring, negotiating and consummating the initial Business Combination. Further needs for operating capital beyond the Company’s current operating cash balance may need
to be funded through loans from the Company’s Sponsor. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by November 14, 2023 (subject to extension by majority approval by the Company’s
stockholders voting), the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. This date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution combined with uncertainty as to whether the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund
operations through the liquidation date or thereafter should a deferral occur raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to evaluate potential Business Combination opportunities and intends
to complete a business combination.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as
modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies
including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy
statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to
comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act)
are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging
growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised, and it has different application dates for public
or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standards at the time the private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make the comparison of the Company’s financial statements with
another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

| Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | NOTE 2–SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the
Company’s 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 unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts
of expenses during the reporting periods.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably
possible that the estimate of the effects of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near
term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $1,181 and $124,501 in cash held in its operating account as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company had no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Investments Held in Trust Account The Company’s portfolio of investments is comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a
maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account
are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading
securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in interest
earned on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In
those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value of certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets. The fair values of cash, prepaid expenses, accrued offering costs and expenses, and amounts due to related parties are estimated
to approximate the carrying values as of June 30, 2023 due to the short maturities of such instruments.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or
contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially
recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the condensed statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such
instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the unaudited condensed financial statements as current or non-current based on whether or not
net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the condensed balance sheet date. Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account
in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Warrant Instruments
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in
ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for
equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instruments are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s
control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the instruments are
outstanding. The Company determined that upon review of the warrant agreement that the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 1) and the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in Note 1) issued in the Initial Public Offering qualify for equity
accounting treatment.
Rights
In connection with the Initial Public Offering and the exercise of the over-allotment of up to 6,900,000 Public Units, each Public Unit is comprised of one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value, a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, and one Public Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of Common Stock. Simultaneously, with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company engaged in a private placement and issued placement units that are identical to the Public Unit, which included the issuance and delivery of aggregate of 430,000 Placement Rights underlying Placement Units (the “Placement Rights”, and together with the Public Rights and such other rights as the Company issues from time to time hereunder, the “Rights”).
The Company accounts for the rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the
guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that the rights described above are not precluded from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent changes in fair
value are not recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified in equity.
Equity Participation Shares
The Company agreed to issue to Chardan at the closing of the Initial Public Offering 34,500 representative shares (“Equity Participation Shares”), which include an additional 4,500 shares due to the exercise of the over-allotment option in full, which will be issued upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination.
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs
consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an
equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common stock subject to forfeiture. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 7,330,000 shares of its common stock in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, since their exercise is contingent upon future events. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is the same as basic net income (loss) per share of common stock. The redemption feature for the common shares equals fair value, and therefore does not create a different class of shares or require an adjustment to the earnings per share calculation. The redemption at fair value does not represent an economic benefit to the holders that is different from what is received by other stockholders, because the
shares could be sold on the open market. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates the fair value. Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are within the control of the holder or subject to possible redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ deficit. The Company’s common stock sold in the Initial Public Offering and over-allotment features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 6,900,000 and 0 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”
(“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to difference between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Deferred tax
assets were deemed to be de minimis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statements recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment interest and penalties for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1, SEC SAB Topic 5A, and SEC SAB Topic 5T, “Accounting for Expenses or Liabilities Paid by Principal Stockholder(s)”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the Initial Public Offering that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs were charged to temporary equity and permanent equity based on relative fair values, upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently
adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.

Founder Shares
On July 30, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 1,437,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.017 per share. On April 25, 2022, the Company executed a retroactive 1.2-for-one stock split on the 1,437,500 Founder Shares, resulting in an aggregate of 1,725,000 Founder Shares held by the Company’s sponsor as of July 30, 2020.
The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of (A) three years after the completion of the initial Business Combination or (B) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-day trading period commencing at least 150 days after the initial Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property.
Private Placement Units
The Sponsor has purchased an aggregate of 430,000 Private Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Placement Unit in a private placement that occurred simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering. Each Private Placement Unit consists of one share of Common Stock, one redeemable warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock, and one right which entitles the holder thereof to receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock. The Private Placement Warrants are exercisable only to purchase whole shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). Proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units were added to the net proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Units held in the Trust Account will be included in the liquidating distribution to the holders of the Public Shares.
The Sponsor and the Company’s officers and directors will agree, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of their Private Placement Units, including the component securities therein until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination.
Promissory Notes
The Sponsor has advanced funds to the Company for the payment of expenses incurred in connection with the Initial Public Offering, which amount is evidenced by non-interest bearing promissory notes in the principal amount of $1,200,000. The promissory notes were due at the earlier of November 29, 2023 or upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The outstanding balance was $0 and $1,200,000 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the promissory notes were be deemed to be repaid and settled in connection with the private placement. As of June 30, 2023, the promissory note is no longer available.
On June 23, 2023, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $200,000 to the Sponsor to fund working capital requirements. The Note is non-interest bearing and is payable in full on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2024 or (ii) the date on which the Company consummates an initial business combination (the “Business Combination”). In the event that the Company does not consummate a business combination, the Note will be repaid only from amounts remaining outside of the Company’s trust account, if any. At the Sponsor’s discretion, the principal balance of the Note may be converted at any time prior to the consummation of an initial business combination into units identical to the private placement units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. As of June 30, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on the Note.
Working Capital Loans
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the Trust Account released to the Company. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into Units at a price of $10.00 per Unit. The Units would be identical to the Private Placement Units. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. Loans made by Chardan or any of its related persons, if any, will not be convertible into any of the Company’s securities, and Chardan and its related persons will have no recourse with respect to their ability to convert their loans into any of the Company’s securities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no Working Capital Loans were outstanding.
Administrative Support Agreement
Beginning on March 1, 2023, the Company agreed to pay an affiliate of members of the Sponsor a total of $7,500 per month for office space, utilities, secretarial and administrative support. Upon completion of the Business Combination or the Company’s liquidation, the Company will cease paying these monthly fees. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred $22,500 and $30,000, respectively, and paid $15,000 and $15,000 of administrative support fees, respectively, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
Due to Affiliate
On August 17, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to advance the Company up to $10,000, which was repaid on February 17, 2022, the Company repaid $10,000 to the Sponsor. On April 28, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to advance the Company up to an additional $10,000. On April 29, 2022, the Sponsor agreed to advance an additional $7,000. These advances are due on demand and are non-interest bearing. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Sponsor did not advance any additional funds to the Company nor did the Company repay any balance. The outstanding balance was $17,000 and $17,000 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Registration Rights
The holders of Founder Shares, Private Placement Units (including component securities contained therein), and Units (including component securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed prior to the effective date of the Initial Public Offering, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, these holders have certain “piggyback” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements. Chardan may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five and seven years, respectively, after the effective date of the Registration Statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. Underwriting Agreement
The Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the final prospectus relating to the Initial Public Offering to purchase up to 900,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
The underwriters were entitled to an underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $1,380,000 in the aggregate, equal to 2% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the exercise of the over-allotment, payable upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering; provided that for each Unit purchased by investors that are sourced by the Sponsor, such underwriting discount was reduced to $0.125 per Unit payable in cash. In addition, $0.30 per Unit, or approximately $2,070,000 in the aggregate will be payable to the underwriters for deferred underwriting commissions. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amount held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement. In addition, the underwriters are entitled to receive 34,500 shares of Common Stock from the Sponsor, which will be placed in escrow until the consummation of an initial Business Combination. Such shares paid to the underwriters are referred to as the “Equity Participation Shares.” If a Business Combination is not consummated, the Equity Participation Shares will be returned to the Sponsor. The Equity Participation Shares have been deemed compensation by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Registration Statement related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Registration Statement related to the Initial Public Offering, nor may they be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the Registration Statement related to the Initial Public Offering except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Initial Public Offering and their bona fide officers or partners. Chardan may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five and seven years, respectively, after the effective date of the Registration Statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion.
Risks and Uncertainties
Management is continuing to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while
it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or the search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these
unaudited condensed financial statements. The unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In February 2022, the Russian Federation and Belarus commenced a military action with the country of Ukraine. As a
result of this action, various nations, including the United States, have instituted economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and Belarus. Further, the impact of this action and related sanctions on the world economy is not determinable
as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements and the specific impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these unaudited condensed financial
statements.
The excise tax included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 may decrease the value of the Company’s securities following its initial business combination,
hinder its ability to consummate an initial business combination, and decrease the amount of funds available for distribution in connection with a liquidation.

| Common Stock Subject To Possible Redemption [Text Block] | NOTE 6–COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO POSSIBLE REDEMPTION The Company’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of
uncertain future events. Accordingly, common stock subject to possible redemption is presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.
The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s common stock subject to possible redemption as of June 30, 2023:

Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Common Stock
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value.
On July 30, 2020, the Sponsor purchased 1,437,500 Founder Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.017 per share. On April 25, 2022, the Company executed a stock split, resulting in an aggregate of 1,725,000 Founder Shares held by the Sponsor. As of December 31, 2022, there were 1,725,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Of the 1,725,000 shares of Common Stock, an aggregate of up to 225,000 shares was subject to forfeiture to the Company by the Sponsor for no consideration to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the private placement of 430,000 shares. On February 21, 2023, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option and the 225,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture. As of June 30, 2023, there were 2,155,000 shares of Common Stock outstanding, excluding 6,900,000 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption that are reflected in temporary equity in the condensed balance sheet.
Common stockholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.
Warrants
As of June 30, 2023, there were 7,330,000 Warrants outstanding. The Warrants that are a part of the Units may be exercised at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in this prospectus. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination.
The Warrants have an exercise price of $11.50 per share and will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Redemption of warrants when the price per Common Stock equals or exceeds $16.50.
Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the Warrants for redemption:
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public
Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until after the completion of a Business Combination,
subject to certain limited exceptions.
The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain
circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of Common Stock at a price below
their respective exercise prices. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds
held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants.
Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Common Stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of its initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.50 per share of Common Stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the Market Value is below $9.50 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the Market Value, and the $16.50 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 165% of the Market Value.
Equity Participation Shares
The Company agreed to issue to Chardan at the closing of the Initial Public Offering up to 34,500 Equity Participation Shares, including over-allotment, which will be issued upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination.
The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC SAB Topic 5A. Offering costs consist principally
of professional and registration fees incurred through the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly
attributable to the issuance of an equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately.
Rights
Except in cases where the Company is not the surviving company in a business combination, each holder
of a right will automatically receive one-tenth (1/10) of a share of common stock upon consummation of its initial business combination, even if the holder of a public right converted all shares of common stock held by him, her or it in connection
with the initial business combination or an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with respect to its pre-business combination activities. In the event the
Company will not be the surviving company upon completion of its initial business combination, each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively convert his, her or its rights in order to receive the one-tenth (1/10) of a share underlying
each right upon consummation of the business combination. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive his, her or its additional shares of common stock upon consummation of an initial business
combination. The shares issuable upon exchange of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company). If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a business combination in which the Company will
not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per share consideration the holders of the common stock will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into common stock basis.

Jun. 30, 2023 | |||||||
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |||||||
| Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the
Company’s 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 unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts
of expenses during the reporting periods. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably
possible that the estimate of the effects of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near
term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
||||||
| Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had $1,181 and $124,501 in cash held in its operating account as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company had no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
|
||||||
| Investments Held in Trust Account, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Investments Held in Trust Account The Company’s portfolio of investments is comprised of U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a
maturity of 185 days or less, or investments in money market funds that invest in U.S. government securities and generally have a readily determinable fair value, or a combination thereof. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account
are comprised of U.S. government securities, the investments are classified as trading securities. When the Company’s investments held in the Trust Account are comprised of money market funds, the investments are recognized at fair value. Trading
securities and investments in money market funds are presented on the condensed balance sheets at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value of these securities are included in interest
earned on investments held in Trust Account in the accompanying condensed statements of operations. The estimated fair values of investments held in the Trust Account are determined using available market information.
|
||||||
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In
those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value of certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed balance sheets. The fair values of cash, prepaid expenses, accrued offering costs and expenses, and amounts due to related parties are estimated
to approximate the carrying values as of June 30, 2023 due to the short maturities of such instruments.
|
||||||
| Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or
contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”). For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially
recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the condensed statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such
instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the unaudited condensed financial statements as current or non-current based on whether or not
net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the condensed balance sheet date.
|
||||||
| Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account
in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
|
||||||
| Warrant Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Warrant Instruments The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instruments’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in
ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the instruments are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the instruments meet all of the requirements for
equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the instruments are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the instrument holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s
control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the instruments are
outstanding. The Company determined that upon review of the warrant agreement that the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 1) and the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in Note 1) issued in the Initial Public Offering qualify for equity
accounting treatment.
|
||||||
| Rights, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Rights In connection with the Initial Public Offering and the exercise of the over-allotment of up to 6,900,000 Public Units, each Public Unit is comprised of one share of common stock, $0.0001 par value, a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, and one Public Right to receive one-tenth (1/10) of one share of Common Stock. Simultaneously, with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Company engaged in a private placement and issued placement units that are identical to the Public Unit, which included the issuance and delivery of aggregate of 430,000 Placement Rights underlying Placement Units (the “Placement Rights”, and together with the Public Rights and such other rights as the Company issues from time to time hereunder, the “Rights”). The Company accounts for the rights issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the
guidance contained in ASC 815-40. Such guidance provides that the rights described above are not precluded from equity classification. Equity-classified contracts are initially measured at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent changes in fair
value are not recognized as long as the contracts continue to be classified in equity.
|
||||||
| Equity Participation Shares, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Equity Participation Shares The Company agreed to issue to Chardan at the closing of the Initial Public Offering 34,500 representative shares (“Equity Participation Shares”), which include an additional 4,500 shares due to the exercise of the over-allotment option in full, which will be issued upon the completion of the Initial Business Combination. The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” Offering costs
consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the date of these unaudited condensed financial statements that are related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs directly attributable to the issuance of an
equity contract to be classified in equity are recorded as a reduction in equity. Offering costs for equity contracts that are classified as assets and liabilities are expensed immediately. |
||||||
| Net Loss Per Common Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Net Income (Loss) per Common Share The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding common stock subject to forfeiture. The Company has not considered the effect of the warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement to purchase an aggregate of 7,330,000 shares of its common stock in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, since their exercise is contingent upon future events. As a result, diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is the same as basic net income (loss) per share of common stock. The redemption feature for the common shares equals fair value, and therefore does not create a different class of shares or require an adjustment to the earnings per share calculation. The redemption at fair value does not represent an economic benefit to the holders that is different from what is received by other stockholders, because the
shares could be sold on the open market. Accretion associated with the redeemable shares of common stock is excluded from earnings per share as the redemption value approximates the fair value.
|
||||||
| Shares Subject to Mandatory Redemption, Changes in Redemption Value, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are within the control of the holder or subject to possible redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ deficit. The Company’s common stock sold in the Initial Public Offering and over-allotment features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 6,900,000 and 0 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ deficit section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets, respectively.
|
||||||
| Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Income Taxes The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”
(“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to difference between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Deferred tax
assets were deemed to be de minimis as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statements recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment interest and penalties for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.
|
||||||
| Offering Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1, SEC SAB Topic 5A, and SEC SAB Topic 5T, “Accounting for Expenses or Liabilities Paid by Principal Stockholder(s)”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred through the Initial Public Offering that are related to the Initial Public Offering.
|
||||||
| New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recent Accounting Pronouncements Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently
adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements.
