Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations and Basis of Preparation. WAWGD Newco, LLC (“Foresight Sports”, “we”, “our”, “us” and “Company”) is a designer and manufacturer of launch monitors, simulator technologies, performance and entertainment software and smart mobility solutions for a variety of sports, the primary being golf. We provide products and services to retail stores, driving ranges, commercial facilities, and personal homes. The Company was incorporated as an S-Corporation in 2010 and converted into a limited liability company during the period ended September 27, 2021. The Company is headquartered in San Diego, CA. The financial statements reflect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may differ from those estimates. We review our estimates to ensure that these estimates properly reflect changes in our business or as new information becomes available.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer, net of amounts paid to third-party app developer. We recognize revenue when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. The majority of our revenue is generated from contracts that contain multiple performance obligations. Performance obligations commonly found in our contracts include hardware, software licenses, the right to software maintenance and other post contract support services (collectively, “PCS services”), and installation services. We determine the transaction price by estimating the total consideration expected to be received from a contract. The measured transaction price is then allocated to each performance obligation identified and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Revenue for hardware is recognized when control has transferred to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment. Revenue for the software licenses is recognized at the point in time the customer can first use and benefit from it. Revenue for PCS services is recognized using a time-based measure of performance over the period the services are delivered, which is assumed to be three years. Revenue for installation services is recognized over the period, typically a period of a day or two, that the installation services are delivered. Revenue recognition is discussed in further detail in Note 2, Revenue Recognition.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales includes material, labor, and overhead costs associated with product manufacturing, including depreciation, amortization, purchasing and receiving, inspection, warehousing, product liability, warranty, and inbound and outbound shipping and handling costs.
Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs consist primarily of compensation and benefits and experimental work materials for our employees who are responsible for the development and enhancement of new and existing products. Research and development costs incurred to develop new products and to enhance existing products are charged to expense as incurred.

Advertising Costs. Advertising and promotional costs including print ads, commercials, catalogs, and brochures are expensed in the period when the first advertisement is run. Our co-op program is structured so that certain customers are eligible for reimbursement for certain types of advertisements on qualifying product purchases and are accrued as purchases are made. Advertising costs totaled $3,002 for the period from January 1, 2021 to September 27, 2021 and are reported in the selling, general, and administrative expense line item of the statement of comprehensive income.
