Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition

ASC 606 provided guidance to identify performance obligations for revenue-generating transactions. The initial step is to identify the contract with a customer created with the sales invoice or a repair ticket. Secondly, to identify the performance obligations in the contract as we promise to deliver the purchased item or promised repairs in return for payment or future payment as a receivable. The third step is determining the transaction price of the contract obligation as in the full ticket price, negotiated price or a repair price. The next step is to allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations as we designate a separate price for each item. The final step in the guidance is to recognize revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Beginning in fiscal year 2020, Envela will disaggregate its revenue, within the operating segments, based on its resale and recycle presentation basis to more closely align with the Company’s activities. The Company’s historical disaggregation of revenue has been recast to conform to our current presentation.

 

The following disaggregation of total revenue is listed by sales category and segment:

DGSE recognizes revenue from its over-the-counter retail and resale transactions, and its wholesale- dealer transactions when the merchandise is delivered and payment is made (whether immediate or via receivable obligation at one of our retail stores). We also recognize revenue upon the shipment of goods when resale and wholesale customers have fulfilled their obligation to pay or promise to pay through e-commerce or telephone sales. We account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment costs after customers obtain control of the goods. We recycle material deemed to be past its useful life primarily to recover its precious-metal content. This material is sold to a Dallas-based refiner that was a related party until May 20, 2019. We recognize revenue from these recycling sales when we receive payment.

 

DGSE offers layaway purchases, requiring a deposit, a 25% payment within two weeks, and full payment of the remaining balance within 90 days after the deposit. If customers fail to make either the 25% payment or final-balance payment within 90 days, then the items are returned to inventory, and such customers forfeit any payments made. We recognize revenue for layaway sales when the items are paid in full and delivered to the customers, or upon payment forfeiture.

 

Sales of fine watches; bullion; clearance/final-sale items; and custom, sized or engraved items are final. All other purchased items may be returned by customers to DGSE within 30 days from purchase for a full refund, less a 10% restocking fee. Returns are accounted for as reversals of the original transactions, with the effect of reducing revenues and cost of sales, and returning the merchandise to inventory. We have established an allowance for estimated returns related to Fiscal 2019 sales based on historical returns and reduced our reported revenues and cost of sales accordingly. Our return allowance for 2019 and as of March 31, 2020 remained the same for both periods, approximately $28,000.

 

In limited circumstances, for wholesale dealers or resale customers, DGSE exchanges resale items for (a) similar resale items, or (b) similar resale items plus money payment. We recognize revenue for these exchanges in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 845, Nonmonetary Transactions. For resale item/resale item exchanges, without payments, we do not recognize any revenue; the basis of the resale items relinquished becomes the basis of the resale items received, less any indicated impairment of value of the resale items relinquished. For resale item/resale item-plus- payment exchanges, we recognize revenue to the extent of payments received, and determine the cost of sale based on the ratio of payments received to payments plus items received, multiplied by the cost of items surrendered.

 

ECHG has several revenue streams and recognize revenue according to ASC 606 at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entities expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to customers. The revenue streams are described below.

 

Resale transactions are recorded when product is shipped. Revenue is recognized when prices are established, terms agreed, and products shipped (i.e., upon ECHG fulfilling its performance obligations). ECHG typically requires resale customers to make prepayment based on an agreed commodity price. ECHG releases shipments upon confirming payment receipt and recognizes revenue on the shipping date. If payment is received on the last day of a month, and shipment occurs the following day, the payment is deferred revenue, recognized the following month when the shipment is made.

 

ECHG recycles material deemed to be past its useful life to recover precious and other non-ferrous metals. As part of its recycling operations, ECHG recognizes refining revenue when its performance obligations are satisfied, i.e., when its inventory arrives at the agreed destination and control of the contracted goods is transferred to the refiner. Our initial invoice is recognized in full when our performance obligation is satisfied, as referenced above. Under the guidance of ASC 606, an estimate of the variable consideration that we expect to receive is included in the transaction price, stated at the current precious-metal spot price and precious-metal weight. We adjust revenue in the period once the underlying metal’s weight and any movement in metal spot price is resolved, generally within six weeks. Adjustments from resolving the underlying uncertainty is netted with the remaining 40% due under the original contract.

 

ECHG also provides recycling services under agreed scopes of work. It recognizes services based on the number of units processed at a preset price per unit. ECHG produces weekly activity reports reflecting numbers of units processed; revenue is recognized based on billing from the weekly reports. ECHG performs recycling services either at its facilities or at clients’ facilities, as confirmed in the scope of work, together with the associated costs and payment terms.
