   1.                                                   We note your response
to prior comment 3. You state advertising cooperatives that you
                                                        consolidate are pass
through entities that you primarily account for as an agent under ASC
                                                        606. Since you control
these entities, please explain to us your basis for why you are an
                                                        agent rather than the
principal in these cooperative arrangements pursuant to ASC 606. In
                                                        your response, tell us
whether franchisees contribute to the advertising cooperatives you
                                                        consolidate and who is
responsible for billing and collecting contributions to these
                                                        cooperatives. Also,
please explain to us in further detail your accounting for and financial
