Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment Information We have three homebuilding segments operating in 16 states. Revenues in our homebuilding segments are derived from the sale of homes which we construct and from land and lot sales. Our reportable segments have been determined on a basis that is used internally by management for evaluating segment performance and resource allocations. The reportable homebuilding segments and all other homebuilding operations, not required to be reported separately under the aggregation of ASC 280, include operations conducting business in the following states: West: Arizona, California, Nevada and Texas East: Delaware, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Tennessee (Nashville) and Virginia Southeast: Florida, Georgia, North Carolina (Raleigh) and South Carolina Management’s evaluation of segment performance is based on segment operating income. Operating income for our homebuilding segments is defined as homebuilding, land sale and other revenues less home construction, land development and land sales expense, commission expense, depreciation and amortization and certain general and administrative expenses which are incurred by or allocated to our homebuilding segments. The accounting policies of our segments are those described in Note 1 above and Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2014 Annual Report.
