 these estimates made by management under different assumptions and conditions.

Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates, and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position, are described below. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our clients in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to for those goods or services. Substantially all of our revenues are derived from contracts with clients. Sales and other applicable taxes are excluded from revenues.

Recurring revenues are derived primarily from our payroll, talent acquisition, talent management, HR management and time and labor management applications, fees charged for form ﬁlings and delivery of client payroll checks and reports, and revenues associated with background checks and income and employment verification services. Payroll includes Beti, Payroll and Payroll Tax Management, Vault, Everyday, Paycom Pay, Client Action Center, Expense Management, Garnishment Administration and GL Concierge applications. Talent acquisition includes our Applicant Tracking, Enhanced Background Checks, Onboarding, E-Verify and Tax Credits applications. Talent management includes our Employee Self-Service, Compensation Budgeting, Performance Management, Position Management and Paycom Learning applications. HR management includes our Manager on-the-Go, Direct Data Exchange, Ask Here, Documents and Checklists, Government and Compliance, Beneﬁts Administration, COBRA Administration, Personnel Action Forms and Performance Discussion Forms, Paycom Surveys, Enhanced ACA and Clue applications. Time and labor management includes Time and Attendance, Scheduling, Time-Off Requests featuring GONE, and Labor Allocation applications. In addition, with Global HCM, a number of our HCM applications and tools are available in 15 languages and dialects and are accessible to users in more than 190 countries.

The client’s use of our applications routinely fluctuates based upon factors that include the number of payrolls run and changes in the client’s employee population. These usage-based fluctuations do not change our core performance obligation to stand ready to provide the customer with services for the remainder of the contractual term.

The performance obligations related to recurring revenues are generally satisfied and recognized during each client’s payroll period, with the agreed-upon fee being charged and collected as part of our processing of the client’s payroll. Collectability is reasonably assured as the fees are generally collected through an automated clearing house as part of the client’s payroll cycle or through direct wire
