| 1. | SEC XBRL Filing Reference Implementation |
A sample high quality SEC XBRL filing. Includes a company extention taxonomy, the XBRL instance, HTML filing, business rules (XBRL Formulas) which verify all computations, etc. |
This filing is intended to show how a [Table] has financial intetrity and how one [Table] has relations to one or more other [Table]s. Take a look at the HTML version of the filing and then look at the company taxonomy. Look at the filing in the SEC previewer by downloading the ZIP file. Look at the filing in the Firefox XBRL viewer add on. |

Using and even more reorganized US GAAP Taxonomy, this also provides a set of exemplars which help to understand how to properly use the US GAAP Taxonomy. |
