The impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on our consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, relating to cash flows from operating activities was an increase to net loss of $26.0 million which was offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $10.6 million, increases in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $0.1 million, and increases in other long-term assets of $1.3 million. These sources of cash from changes in operating assets were partially offset by increases in deferred revenue and customer deposits of $17.4 million and a decrease in accrued warranty of $0.6 million. There is no net impact on operating activities and no impact in investing and financing activities.

Deferred revenue is equivalent to the total transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, as of December 31, 2019. These performance obligations relate to the provision of maintenance services under current contracts and future renewal periods which provide customers with material rights over a period that we estimate will be largely commensurate with the period of their expected use of the associated Energy Server. As a result we expect to recognize these amounts as revenue over a period of up to 21 years, predominantly on a cost-to-cost basis that reflects the cost of providing these services.
Revenue by source
We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into four revenue categories: (i) product, (ii) installation, (iii) services and (iv) electricity, as shown below (in thousands):
