Paycheck Protection Program [Abstract]  
Paycheck Protection Program Note 14 – Paycheck Protection Program

The CARES Act established the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), which authorized forgivable loans to small businesses. Pursuant to the CARES Act, PPP loans will be fully forgiven if the funds are used for payroll costs, rent and utilities, subject to certain conditions, including maintaining employees and maintaining salary levels. In April 2020, the Company applied for a PPP loan and received funding of approximately $540,000. The Company expended the funds received under the PPP in full on qualifying expenses, and maintained the conditions set forth by the PPP. The Company submitted its application for forgiveness in September 2020 and the SBA approved the forgiveness of the full amount of the loan and the related interest on November 10, 2020. For accounting purposes, the Company treated the PPP loan as a government grant. As a result, the Company recorded a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $420,000 and a reduction to payroll-related research and development expenses of approximately $120,000 related to these funds within the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020.
