Deferred Revenue

 

Deferred revenue includes amounts attributable to advances received or invoices sent on customer agreements, which are contractually required and are non-refundable, and may be prepaid either annually, quarterly, or monthly. Revenues from such customer agreements are recognized as income ratably over the period that coincides with the respective agreement.

 

The Company recognizes initial set-up fee revenues and associated costs on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the customer relationship period, typically five years.
