Note 3.  Revenue Recognition

 

We report hotel operating revenues for managed hotels in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. We generally recognize hotel operating revenues, consisting primarily of room and food and beverage sales, when goods and services are provided.

 

We recognize rental income from operating leases on a straight line basis over the term of the lease agreements except for one lease in which there is uncertainty regarding the collection of scheduled future rent increases.  Rental income includes $1,511 and $2,056 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and $539 and $1,106 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, of adjustments necessary to record scheduled rent increases under certain of our leases, the deferred rent obligations under our TravelCenters of America LLC, or TA, agreements and the estimated future payments to us by TA for the cost of removing underground storage tanks on a straight line basis.  See Note 10 for further information regarding our TA agreements.  Other assets, net, includes $23,450 and $21,866 of straight line rent receivables at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

 

We determine percentage rent due to us under our leases annually and recognize it at year end when all contingencies have been met and the rent is earned. We had no deferred estimated percentage rent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and $698 and $1,572 of deferred estimated percentage rent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.  In connection with our lease modification with TA in June 2015, we recorded $2,048 of percentage rent during the three months ended June 30, 2015.  See Note 10 for further information regarding these agreements.

 

We own all the capital expenditure reserves, or FF&E reserves, for our hotels. We do not report the amounts which are escrowed as FF&E reserves for our managed hotels as FF&E reserve income. We report deposits by our third party hotel tenants into the escrow accounts as FF&E reserve income.
