    $        3,605     $   3,482  

     Notes receivable at January 31, 2016 and February 1, 2015, consist principally of amounts payable to us related to sales of equipment, to the sale of certain leasehold interests, and to a refranchising transaction.

In addition to the foregoing notes receivable, we had promissory notes totaling approximately $1.2 million at January 31, 2016 and $1.9 million at February 1, 2015 principally representing royalties and fees due to us which, as a result of doubt about their collection, we have not yet recorded as revenues. During fiscal 2016 and 2015, we collected approximately $700,000 and $900,000, respectively, related to these promissory notes and recorded such collections in revenues as received because of the uncertainty as to the timing and amount of such collections.

Finally, we had a promissory note receivable from KKSF totaling approximately $1.0 million at February 1, 2015, arising from our advance to KKSF of approximately $1.6 million. Because of the uncertainty of recovery of amounts advanced to KKSF, the note receivable was not reflected as an asset in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. We recorded payments on the note as they were received from KKSF, and reflected such amounts as a component of other non-operating income. On January 14, 2016, we conveyed our membership interest in KKSF to the majority owner of KKSF which included the payment of approximately $500,000 for the remaining outstanding balance of this promissory note as more fully described in Note 7. Such collections on this promissory note totaled approximately $1.0 million and $550,000 in fiscal 2016 and 2015, respectively.
