Revenue from product sales is recognized when a purchase order has been received, the cancer treatment system has been shipped, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.  Most system sales are F.O.B. shipping point; therefore, shipment is deemed to have occurred when the product is delivered to the transportation carrier.  Most system sales do not include installation.  If installation is included as part of the contract, revenue is not recognized until installation has occurred, or until any remaining installation obligation is deemed to be perfunctory.  Some sales of systems may include training as part of the sale.  In such cases, the portion of the revenue related to the training, calculated based on the amount charged for training on a stand-alone basis, is deferred and recognized when the training has been provided.  The sales of our cancer treatment systems do not require specific customer acceptance provisions and do not include the right of return except in cases where the product does not function as warranted by us.  To date, returns have not been significant.

 

Revenue from the sale of disposable devices is recognized when a purchase order has been received, the devices have been shipped, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.  Currently, our customers are not required to purchase a minimum number of disposable devices in connection with the purchase of our systems.

 

Revenue from training services is recorded when an agreement with the customer exists for such training, the training services have been provided, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Revenue from service support contracts is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract, which approximates recognizing it as it is earned.

 

Revenue from equipment rental under an operating lease is recognized when billed in accordance with the lease agreement.

 

Our revenue recognition policy is the same for sales to both related parties and non-related parties.  We provide the same products and services under the same terms for non-related parties as with related parties.

 

Sales to distributors are recognized in the same manner as sales to end-user customers.

 

Deferred revenue and customer deposits include amounts from service contracts as well as cash received for the sales of products which have not been shipped.
