Report Calculations Explained
Recognized & deferred revenue calculates revenue that is not recognized on the transaction date of the charge but is instead deferred across future months over a certain period of time. The calculation takes the most recent membership invoice for charges with a duration of more than a month and allocates the revenue into monthly portions over the duration of the charge. Each full month will be allocated the same amount of revenue.
Example: a $1,200 annual membership billed on April 16th, 2020 will be split and recognized in the following months:
April 16th - 30th, 2020 (.5 month): $50
May 2020 - March 2021: $100 each month
April 1st - 15th, 2021 (.5 month): $50
