REVENUE | 3. REVENUE Product sales primarily consist of sales of mobile homes to consumers and mobile home parks through various sales channels, which include Direct Sales, Commercial Sales, Inventory Finance Sales, and Retail Store Sales. Direct Sales include homes sold directly to independent retailers or customers that are not financed by the Company and are not sold under a inventory finance arrangement. These types of homes are generally paid for prior to shipment. Commercial Sales include homes sold to mobile home parks under commercial loan programs or paid for upfront. The Company provides inventory financing for independent retailers who purchase homes from us and then sell them to consumers. Inventory Finance Sales are considered sales of homes to the independent dealer. Retail Store Sales are homes sold through Company-owned retail locations. Inventory Finance Sales and Retail Sales of homes may be financed by the Company, by a third party, or paid in cash. Revenue from product sales is recognized when the performance obligation under the terms of a contract with our customer is satisfied, which typically occurs upon delivery and transfer of title of the home, as this depicts when control of the promised good is transferred to our customers. For inventory financed sales, the independent dealer enters into a financing arrangement with the Company and is required to make monthly interest payments. Interest income is separately recorded in the statement of income. For other financed sales by the Company, the individual customer enters into a sales and financing contract and is required to make a down payment. These financed sales contain a significant financing component and any interest income is separately recorded in the statement of income. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring the homes to the customers. Sales and other similar taxes collected concurrently with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company made an accounting policy election to account for any shipping and handling costs that occur after the transfer of control as a fulfillment cost that is accrued when control is transferred. Warranty obligations associated with the sale of a unit are assurance-type warranties for a period of twelve months that are a guarantee of the home’s intended functionality and, therefore, do not represent a distinct performance obligation within the context of the contract. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient to expense the incremental costs of obtaining a contract if the amortization period of the asset that the Company would have otherwise recognized is one year or less. Contract costs, which include commissions incurred related to the sale of homes, are expensed at the point-in-time when the related revenue is recognized. Warranty costs and contract costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income. For the year ended December 31, 2023, sales to two independent third-parties and their affiliates accounted for $10,134 or 7.0% and $10,033 or 6.9% of our product sales, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2022, sales to two independent third-parties and their affiliates accounted for $13,008 or 5.9% and $11,879 or 5.4% of our product sales, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, total cost of product sales included $10,188 and $11,588 of costs relating to subcontracted production for commercial sales, reimbursed dealer expenses for inventory finance sales, and certain other similar costs incurred for retail store and commercial sales. Other revenue consists of contract deposit forfeitures, consignment fees, commercial lease rents, service fees and other miscellaneous income. Consignment fees are charged to independent retailers on a monthly basis for homes held by the independent retailers pursuant to a consignment arrangement until the home is sold to an individual customer. Consignment fees are determined as a percentage of the home’s wholesale price to the independent dealer. Revenue recognition for consignment fees is recognized over time using the output method as it provides a faithful depiction of the Company’s performance toward completion of the performance obligation under the contract and the value transferred to the independent retailer for the time the home is held under consignment. The Company transitioned most of its independent retailers from consignment arrangements to inventory finance arrangements in late 2022. Revenue for commercial leases is recognized as earned monthly over a contractual period of 96 or 120 months. Revenue for service fees and miscellaneous income is recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation is satisfied. Disaggregation of Revenue.
