NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2018

 

NOTE 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

C.Business Activity

 

True Wireless, LLC (the Company) is an Oklahoma limited liability company that provides discounted and subsidized prepaid wireless telephone services, predominantly to Lifeline customers. Lifeline is a program of the Universal Service Fund (USF) that provides a discount on phone service for qualifying low-income consumers through the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC). True Wireless is headquartered in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and is designated as an eligible telecommunications carrier in Arkansas, Maryland, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, and Texas.

 

D.Revenue Recognition

 

The Company earns revenue primarily by providing access to and usage of wireless networks, as well as the sale of cellular telephones and accessories. Access revenue is billed one month in advance and recognized when earned. Usage revenue is generally billed in arrears and recognized when service is rendered. Equipment sales revenue associated with the sale of wireless devices and accessories is generally recognized when the products are delivered to and accepted by the customer, as this is considered to be a separate earnings process from providing wireless services.

 

True Wireless receives reimbursement from the Universal Service Fund (USF) for revenues it forgoes in providing the discounted services to eligible customers in accordance with Federal Communications Commission rules outlined in the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. These discounts are required to be passed to the eligible low-income consumers. The Lifeline revenue due from USAC on the balance sheet represents the reimbursements due as of the balance sheet date for the month of March 2018. The Company utilizes a third party legal firm to verify the eligibility of claims under the USAC Lifeline program. The total costs for these compliance services amounted to $79,397 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and are included in Compliance and other professional fees in the Statement of Operations.

 

C.     Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers currency on hand, demand deposits with banks or financial institutions and liquid investments with a maturity less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents.

 

F.Customer Phone Supply

 

Customer phone supply consists of cellular telephones provided to eligible customers in accordance with Federal Communications Commission rules outlined in the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. These telephones are amortized to Cost of Sales over a 12 month period from the date put into service. The amount amortized into Cost of Revenues was $246,404 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

G.Property and Equipment

 

Capital assets are carried at cost. Depreciation is charged against income at an amount equal to estimated cost of usage over the estimated life of the asset using various depreciation methods. Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 $1,227.

 

K.Income Tax Status

 

The Company is a member managed limited liability company and, as a result, income from the Company is passed through to the members and taxed in their individual tax returns. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal or state income taxes has been included in the financial statements. There are no material differences between the tax and financial basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

 

L.Advertising and Promotion

 

The Company expenses the costs of advertising and promotion as incurred. Advertising and promotion expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $23,330.

N.Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

O.Date of Management Review
