Substantially all of our revenue is generated from sales of towing equipment. As such, disaggregation of revenue by product line would not provide useful information because all product lines have substantially similar characteristics. However, revenue streams are tracked by the geographic location of customers. This disaggregated information is presented in the table below.

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied. Except for certain extended service contracts on a small percentage of units sold, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied, and sales revenue is recognized when products are shipped from the Company’s facilities. From time to time, revenue is recognized under a bill and hold arrangement. Recognition of revenue on bill and hold arrangements occurs when control transfers to the customer. The bill and hold arrangement must be substantive, and the product must be separately identified as belonging to the customer, ready for physical transfer, and unavailable to be used or directed to another customer.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for the transfer of products. Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Warranty related costs are recognized as an expense at the time products are sold and a reserve is established. Depending on the terms of the arrangement, for certain contracts the Company may defer the recognition of a portion of the consideration received because a future obligation has not yet been satisfied, such as an extended service contract. An observable price is used to determine the stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations or a cost plus margin approach is utilized when one is not available.

Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to performance obligations to be satisfied in the future. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, contract liability balances were $287 and $324, respectively, and are included in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $37 of this liability into earnings after satisfaction of related performance obligations. No revenue related to contract liability balances was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020, or during three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company did not have any contract assets at June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019. Terms on accounts receivable vary and are based on specific terms agreed upon with each customer. Write-offs of accounts receivable were not material during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Trade accounts receivable are generally diversified due to the number of entities comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across many geographic regions. The Company also frequently monitors the creditworthiness of the customers to whom the credit is granted in the normal course of business. There were no customers with a trade account receivable greater than 10% of total accounts receivable at June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
