Accounts Receivable

The Company evaluates its accounts receivable on a customer-by-customer basis and has determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Our receivables contain unapproved claims with Federal Dept. of Defense agencies related to prior year contracts where costs have exceeded the customer’s funded value of the task ordered on our cost reimbursement type contract vehicles. Unapproved claims included as a component of our Accounts Receivable totaled approximately $1,555,000 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. These unapproved claims represent the additional costs recoverable on our cost recoverable type contract vehicles as supported by our actual incurred cost submissions or actual rate filings with the DCAA (Defense Contract Audit Agency) compared to the provisional (budgetary) rates used for billing under these contracts. The $1,555,000 is subject to audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). Based on evaluations by management and information regarding the backlog for DCAA audits of incurred cost submissions, management believes the receivable is collectible and therefore has not provided an allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Consistent with industry practice, we classify assets and liabilities related to these claims as current, even though some of these amounts may not be realized within one year.
