Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract] |
Contracts with Customers | 4. Contracts with Customers Contract Assets and Liabilities/Contract Balances Information about unbilled receivables, contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers is as follows (in millions):
|  | March 31, 2022 |  |  | December 31, 2021 |
Unbilled receivables |  | $ | 1,198.1 |  |  | $ | 730.0 |
Deferred contract costs |  |  | 79.4 |  |  |  | 129.7 |
Deferred revenue |  |  | 642.3 |  |  |  | 579.6 |
The unbilled receivables, which are included in premiums and fees receivable in our consolidated balance sheet, primarily relate to our rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. These are transferred to the receivables when the client is billed. The deferred contract costs represent the costs we incur to fulfill a new or renewal contract with our clients prior to the effective date of the contract. These costs are expensed on the contract effective date. The deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheet includes amounts that represent the remaining performance obligations under our contracts and amounts collected related to advanced billings and deposits received from customers that may or may not ultimately be recognized as revenues in the future. Deposits received from customers could be returned to the customers based on lesser actual transactional volume than originally billed volume. Significant changes in the deferred revenue balances, which include foreign currency translation adjustments, during the period are as follows (in millions):

Revenue recognized during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 in the table above included revenue from 2021 acquisitions that would not be reflected in prior periods. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations represent the portion of the contract price for which work has not been performed. As of March 31, 2022, the aggregate amount of the contract price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $642.3 million. The estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period is as follows (in millions):

Deferred Contract Costs We capitalize costs incurred to fulfill contracts as deferred contract costs which are included in other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet. Deferred contract costs were $79.4 million and $129.7 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Capitalized fulfillment costs are amortized to expense on the contract effective date. The amount of amortization of the deferred contract costs was $160.0 million and $126.2 million for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We have applied the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that we otherwise would have recognized is one year or less for our brokerage segment. These costs are included in compensation and operating expenses in our consolidated statement of earnings.
