NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION


Revenue generated by the Trucking segment is recognized in full upon completion of delivery of freight to the receiver’s location. For freight in transit at the end of a reporting period, revenue is recognized pro rata based on relative transit time completed as a portion of the estimated total transit time. Expenses are recognized as incurred.


Revenue generated by the SCS segment is recognized upon completion of the services provided. The Company has responsibility for billing and collections, and as such, revenue is reported on a gross basis without deducting purchased transportation costs.


By agreement with our customers, and consistent with industry practice, a graduated fuel surcharge is added to the rates charged to customers as diesel fuel prices increase above an agreed-upon baseline price per gallon.


Management believes these policies most accurately reflect revenue as earned, including purchased transportation costs.
