Park admission fee revenues from advance online ticket purchases are deferred until the customers visit to the parks. Revenues from retail and concession sales are generally recognized upon the concurrent receipt of payment and delivery of goods to the customer. Sales taxes billed and collected are not included in revenue. The Company periodically sells surplus animals created from the natural breeding process that occurs within the parks. All animal sales are reported as a separate revenue line item. Animal sales are recognized at a point in time when control transfer to the customer, which is generally determined when title, ownership and risk of loss pass to the customer, all of which generally occurs upon delivery of the animal. Based on the Companys assessment of control indicators, sales are recognized when animals are delivered to the customer. The Company provides disaggregation of revenue based on geography in NOTE 10: BUSINESS SEGMENTS, as it believes this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Deferred revenues from advance online admission tickets were $299,254 and $273,386 as of January 3, 2021 and September 27, 2020, respectively, and are included within Other Current Liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Advertising and Marketing Costs: Stock Based Compensation: A Stock Option and Award Plan (the Plan) providing for incentive stock options and performance bonus awards for executives, employees, and directors was approved by the Companys Board of Directors on February 1, 2005, however, the Plan has not been submitted to the stockholders for approval. The Plan sets aside five million (5,000,000) shares for award of stock options, including qualified incentive stock options and performance stock bonuses. To date, no grants or awards have been made pursuant to the Plan and the Company did not submit the Plan for consideration to the Companys stockholders at its last meeting of stockholders. Income Taxes: A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more-likely-than-not test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits under guidance related to tax uncertainties. The Company does not anticipate the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. Any tax penalties or interest expense will be recognized in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were accrued as of January 3, 2021 or September 27, 2020. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share: Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the applicable weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each period.
