Accounts receivable, net |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 12,372 |  |  |  |  | $ | 11,943 |  |
Ref (a): Includes $9.3 million related to retroactive billings submitted to incorporate the impact of relevant wage determinations on certain contracts. Revenues related to these retroactive billings were recognized in fiscal 2008 in accordance with GAAP, as follows: (1) the Company developed and calculated an amount for such prior period services and had a contractual right to bill for such amounts under its arrangements, which was formalized in a contract modification (2) there were no remaining unfulfilled conditions for approval of such billings and (3) collectibility was reasonably assured based on historical practices with, and contractual requirements of, the DVA. The related direct costs, principally comprised of salaries and benefits, were accrued to match the recognized reimbursements from the Federal agency; upon approval, wages will be processed for payment to the employees. During the year ended September 30, 2008, DLH recognized revenues of $10.8 million revenue related to these non-recurring adjustments, of which $1.5 million was subsequently billed and collected. DLH has had ongoing interactions with the customer during fiscal 2014, and in September 2014, we submitted a claim to the DVA to seek a final determination by the DVA’s contracting officer of the amount due to DLH and immediate payment of such amount. We expect closure on this issue within the next twelve months. Ref (b): Accounts receivable are unsecured and carried at fair value, which is net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. We evaluate our receivables on a quarterly basis and determine whether an allowance is appropriate based on specific collection issues. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was zero at both September 30, 2014 and 2013. Other Current Assets
