Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE I: INCOME TAXES The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. and Canadian federal income tax laws as well as the income tax laws of multiple state jurisdictions.

In determining whether a tax asset valuation allowance is necessary, management, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-10-30, weighs all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is necessary. If negative conditions exist which indicate a valuation allowance might be necessary, consideration is then given to what effect the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and the availability of tax strategies might have on future taxable income to determine the amount, if any, of the required valuation allowance. As of September 30, 2020, management determined that the future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and available tax strategies would generate sufficient future taxable income to realize its tax assets and therefore a valuation allowance was not necessary.

As of September 30, 2020, an adjustment to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for uncertain tax positions has not been required as management believes that the Company’s tax positions taken in income tax returns filed or to be filed are supported by clear and unambiguous income tax laws. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions, if any, in income tax expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company has not recognized or accrued any interest or penalties related to uncertain income tax positions. The Company’s effective income tax rates were 18.33% and 22.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 differs from amounts computed by applying the United States federal statutory rates to pre-tax income primarily due to state income taxes and the tax benefits related to stock compensation.
