Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair value measurements [Text Block]

9. Fair value measurements

The accounting guidance for fair value establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, or which require the  reporting entity to develop its own assumptions

The following table presents information about the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the level of the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair values:

		March 31, 2025
		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Current assets:
Money market funds	$	2,587,501	$	-	$	-	$	2,587,501
Total assets measured at fair value	$	2,587,501	$	-	$	-	$	2,587,501
		December 31, 2024
		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Current assets:
Money market funds	$	4,164,323	$	-	$	-	$	4,164,323
Total assets measured at fair value	$	4,164,323	$	-	$	-	$	4,164,323

The Company's cash equivalents are classified as Level 1. The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents is determined based on market pricing that is both objective and publicly available.

The Company did not reclassify any investments between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying amounts of the Company's other financial instruments, which include cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities.
