Costs In Excess Of Billings Or Deferred Revenue |
Costs in Excess of Billings or Deferred Revenue | 11. Costs in Excess of Billings or Deferred Revenue In January 2012, the Company received a purchase order for $1.1 million from Raytheon. The purchase order is for development of low cost manufacturing processes for infrared optics and is in support of Raytheon’s $13.4 million Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) Low Cost Thermal Imaging Manufacturing (LCTI-M) program. The goal of LCTI-M is to develop a wafer scale manufacturing process that will result in a camera on a chip, making thermal imagers affordable, accessible, and ubiquitous to every warfighter. The Company is using the “cost-to-cost method” to allow it to measure progress toward completion based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to total estimated costs. The Company has recorded in deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet the difference between the amounts invoiced on the project and the amount recognized into revenue. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has invoiced $743,500 in milestone billings per the purchase order, and recognized approximately $1.02 million as revenue, which includes $407,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. The balance of approximately $280,000 is recorded as other receivables. The project is expected to be completed by July 2013. At December 31, 2012, we had $100,000 in accounts receivable with respect to this purchase order, as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
