Basic and Diluted Net Income(Loss) Per Common Share [Abstract] 
BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME(LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
NOTE — 2 BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Milestone presents “basic” and “fully diluted” earnings (loss) per common share applicable to common stockholders, and, if applicable, “diluted” earnings (loss) per common share applicable to common stockholders pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 260. Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and to be issued during each period. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share is similar to that of basic earnings per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, such as those issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants were issued during the period.
Since Milestone had net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the assumed effects of the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants were not included in the calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Such outstanding options and warrants totaled 1,330,503 and 1,644,474 at September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
