Offsite demo equipment represents the cost of products physically located at customer locations, during an orientation period for which the Company retains title. As such, no depreciation expense has been recorded on these units. Excess, obsolete or expired inventory are adjusted to net realizable value, through inventory reserve, based primarily on how long the inventory has been held as well as the Company's estimate of forecasted net sales of the product.
