Deferred Income |
DEFERRED INCOME | NOTE 10. DEFERRED INCOME In previous years, the Company has sold properties to related parties where we have had continuing involvement in the form of management or financial assistance associated with the sale of the properties. Because of the continuing involvement associated with the sale, the sales criteria for the full accrual method is not met, and as such the Company has deferred some or all of the gain recognition and accounted for the sale by applying the finance, deposit, installment or cost recovery methods, as appropriate, until the sales criteria is met. The gains on these transactions have been deferred until the properties are sold to a non-related third party. As of December 31, 2019, we had deferred gain of $24.8 million.
