The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on our consolidated balance sheet. Other than contracts with customers with financing arrangements exceeding 12 months, revenue recognition is generally proximal to conversion to cash, except for Lottery instant products sold under POS contracts. Revenue is recognized for such contracts upon delivery to our customers, while conversion to cash is based on the retail sale of the underlying ticket to end consumers. As a result, revenue recognition under ASC 606 does not approximate conversion to cash in any periods post-adoption. Total revenue recognized under such contracts was $23 million and $34 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The following table summarizes our balances in these accounts for the periods indicated (other than contract liabilities disclosed above):

(1) Contract assets are included primarily within Prepaid expenses, deposits and other current assets in our March 31, 2019 consolidated balance sheet.

As of March 31, 2019, we did not have material unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts expected to be long-term or contracts for which we recognize revenue at an amount other than for which we have the right to invoice for goods or services delivered or performed.
