Accounts Receivable Financing Arrangement [Abstract] |
Accounts Receivable Financing Arrangement | Note 9. Accounts Receivable Financing Arrangement On January 28, 2011, Infusion entered into an accounts receivable sales and financing arrangement that provides for the assignment and sale of certain qualified accounts receivable to a financial institution. The facility had an initial term of one year and provides for cash advances in amounts of 75% of qualified accounts receivable balances assigned up to an amount of $1,000,000. The initial term may be extended in one year periods upon the mutual agreement of the Company and the lender. The lender receives an initial discount of 1.75% of the net realizable value of the qualified receivables for purchased receivables outstanding from 1-30 days. Subsequently, the lender receives an additional 1.0% discount for each 15 day period that the qualified receivable has not been collected. Further, the lender has a secured priority interest in the accounts receivable that they finance. This arrangement does not qualify for sales accounting under current accounting standards and is, therefore, subject to accounting as a financing arrangement wherein we will carry the assigned receivables in our accounts until they are settled and advances that we receive from the lender will be reflected as liabilities. The discounts are classified as interest expense. On October 10, 2012, Infusion amended our accounts receivable and purchase order financing agreement to raise the cash advance rate from 75% to 80% of qualified accounts receivable balances assigned up to an amount of $4,000,000 (up from $1,000,000 previously). The initial discount rate has been lowered from 1.75% to 1.65% for the first 1 - 30 days and from 1% to 0.80% for each subsequent 15 day period. There was approximately $69,000 and $474,000 outstanding under this arrangement as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Accounts receivable assigned as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was approximately $136,000 and $920,000, respectively.
