Text Block [Abstract]
Investment Management and Other Fees	INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND OTHER FEES The Company serves as investment adviser to USGIF and receives a fee based on a specified percentage of net assets under management. The advisory agreement for the equity funds within USGIF provides for a base advisory fee that is adjusted upwards or downwards by 0.25 percent if there is a performance difference of 5 percent or more between a fund’s performance and that of its designated benchmark index over the prior rolling 12 months. For the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, the Company realized a decrease in its base advisory fee of $815,000; $133,000; and $2.2 million; respectively. The following changes were made during the current fiscal year to the mutual funds the Company manages: (1) the Global Emerging Markets Fund liquidated on October 31, 2013, (2) the MegaTrends Fund was reorganized into the Holmes Growth Fund (renamed Holmes Macro Trends Fund), (3) the Tax Free Fund was reorganized into the Near-Term Tax Free Fund, (4) the U.S. Government Securities Savings Fund changed from a money market fund to the U.S. Government Securities Ultra-Short Bond Fund, and (5) the U.S. Treasury Securities Cash Fund was liquidated on December 27, 2013. The Company agreed to contractually limit the expenses of the Near-Term Tax Free Fund through December 2014. The Company has voluntarily waived or reduced its fees and/or agreed to pay expenses on the remaining funds. These caps will continue on a voluntary basis at the Company’s discretion. The aggregate fees waived and expenses borne by the Company were $2.4 million; $3.3 million; and $3.1 million; for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. Prior to the U.S. Treasury Securities Cash Fund liquidation and the Government Fund conversion, the Company voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse these funds to the extent necessary to maintain the respective fund’s yield at a certain level as determined by the Company (Minimum Yield). The above waived fees include fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for these funds as a result of this agreement totaling $583,000 for the year ended June 30, 2014. The Company may recapture any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed to maintain Minimum Yield within three years after the end of the funds’ fiscal year of such waiver and/or reimbursement to the extent that such recapture would not cause the funds’ yield to fall below the Minimum Yield. Thus, $737,000 of the waiver for the Government Fund is recoverable by the Company through December 31, 2014; $510,000 through December 31, 2015; and $498,000 through December 31, 2016. The U.S. Treasury Securities Cash Fund also had waivers subject to future recapture; however, because the fund was liquidated in December 2013, there will be no recapture. Management cannot predict the impact of the waivers due to the number of variables and the range of potential outcomes. In addition, effective December 2013, the Funds’ board of trustees increased the administrative services fees paid to the Company from an annual rate of 0.08 percent to 0.10 percent per investor class and from 0.06 percent to 0.08 percent per institutional class of each Fund, based on average daily net assets, plus $10,000 per Fund. In connection with obtaining and/or providing administrative services to the beneficial owners of USGIF through broker-dealers, banks, trust companies and similar institutions which provide such services, the Company receives shareholder services fees at an annual rate of up to 0.20 percent of the value of shares held in accounts at the institutions. The Company receives distribution and administrative services fees from USGIF based on average net assets. The Company’s Board of Directors formally agreed on August 23, 2013, to exit the transfer agency business so that the Company could focus more on its core strength of investment management. USSI served as transfer agent to USGIF until conversion to a new transfer agent on December 9, 2013. Before the conversion, USSI received fees based on the number of shareholder accounts, transaction and activity-based fees and certain miscellaneous fees. The transfer agency fees are included in “discontinued operations” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company provided advisory services to three offshore clients and received a monthly advisory fee based on the net asset values of the clients and performance fees based on the overall increase in net asset values, if any. One of the offshore funds liquidated in November 2013. The contracts between the Company and the offshore clients expire periodically, and management anticipates that its remaining offshore clients will renew the contracts. The Company recorded advisory and performance fees from these clients totaling $190,000 and $4,000 for the year ended June 30, 2014; $299,000 and $19,000 for the year ended June 30, 2013; and $352,000 and $6,000 for the year ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
