Less than 1% of revenues accounted for under ASC Topic 606 included within the table above are recorded over time; these revenues are primarily related to service contracts.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Contract assets relate to unbilled amounts arising from goods that have already been transferred to the customer where the right to payment is not conditional upon the passage of time. This results in recognition of an asset, as the amount of revenue recognized at a certain point-in-time exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are recorded in receivables within our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and were not material as of November 30, 2019, and August 31, 2019.

Contract liabilities relate to advance payments from customers for goods and services that we have yet to provide. Contract liabilities of $205.0 million and $207.5 million as of November 30, 2019, and August 31, 2019, respectively, are recorded within other current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three months ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, we recognized revenues of $92.0 million and $95.2 million, respectively, which were included in the other current liabilities balance at the beginning of the period.
