Operating Segment Information [Abstract]

Operating Segment Information

14.    Operating Segment Information

The Company has four reportable segments that are evaluated regularly by its chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The accounting policies of the Company’s operating segments are the same as those described in Note 2, except that the disaggregated financial results of the segments reflect allocation of certain functional expense categories consistent with the basis and manner in which Company management internally disaggregates financial information for the purpose of assisting in making internal operating decisions.

Certain corporate overhead costs, such as executive and accounting department personnel-related expenses, are not allocated to the individual segments by management.

Operating segment data is as follows:

(1) Unallocated corporate expense includes eliminations relating to QSIH revenues and related expenses included in the results of operating segments. QSIH was formed in January 2011 and eliminations were not significant for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Management evaluates performance based upon stand-alone segment operating income. Because the Company does not evaluate performance based upon return on assets at the operating segment level, assets are not tracked internally by segment. Therefore, segment asset information is not presented.
