Nearly 100% of our revenue in all periods presented was comprised of hotel operating revenues, which includes room revenue, food and beverage revenue, and revenue from other operating departments (such as telephone, parking and business centers). These revenues are recorded net of any sales or occupancy taxes collected from our guests. All rebates or discounts are recorded, when allowed, as a reduction in revenue, and there are no material contingent obligations with respect to rebates or discounts offered by us. All revenues are recorded on an accrual basis, as earned. Appropriate allowances are made for doubtful accounts and are recorded as a bad debt expense. The remainder of our revenue was from condominium management fee income and other sources.

Hotel Operating Revenue, Departmental Expenses and Other Property Related Operating Costs — (continued)

In March 2013, we rebranded and transitioned management at eight core Holiday Inn hotels located in strategic markets to Wyndham brands. Wyndham's parent guaranteed a minimum level of net operating income for each year of the initial 10-year term, subject to an aggregate $100 million limit over the term and an annual $21.5 million limit. Amounts recorded under the guaranty will be accounted for, to the extent available, as a reduction in contractual management and other fees paid and payable to Wyndham. Any amounts in excess of those fees will be recorded as revenue when earned. For March through December 2013 (the first ten months during which Wyndham managed the hotels for FelCor), we have recorded an $8 million guaranty as a reduction of Wyndham's contractual management and other fees.
