Certain development costs nos meeting the criteria for capitalization are expensed as incurted. We evaluate our long-lived assets each quarier for indicaton of potential impairment. Indicaton of impairment include current period losses coenbined with a history of losses, our decisioa to relocate or close a store or other location before the end of its previonaly estimated uveful life, of when changes in other circumstances indicate the carrying amount of as asset may sot be rocoverable. The evaluation for losg-lived assets is performed at the lowest leve? of ideatifiable cash flows, which is generally the individual store level. The assets of a store with indicators of imparment are evaluated for receverability by comparing ats undiscounted future cash flows with its carryieg value. If the carryisg value is greater than the undiscounted future cash flows, we then measure the asset's fair value to determine wbether an impairment loss should be recognired.

Evaluation of the Self-Insurance Liability As discussed in Nose 1 to the Conotidated Finasial Stasemens, the Company is self-insured foe certain lowes related to peneral liability (including product liability), worker' compeosabon, employee groap medical, and automobile claimi. The Company recognises the expected ultimate cost for claims incurred at the balance sheet date as a liability. The expected ultimate cost for claims incurred is estimated based spon an analysis of historical data and actoarial estimates detecmined by the Conipany's thind party actuary. We identified the evaluation of certain self-insurance liablities as a critical audit matter. specifically those liatilities related to general liability (iscludieg product liability) and woeken' compenution. Specialiod sills were required to evaluate the actasial methods and assumptoas esed in determining certain self-insurasce liabilities. Toere was a high degree of judgment required to evaluate the Company's key aswomptoss such as loss developmest factoen and the selection of ultimate losses among etimates derived using the various actuarial methods The primary procedares we performed to address this criveal aodit matter included the followise. We tested certain inlernal controls over the Company's self-insurance liabslities process including controls ower the review of the thard-parisy actuarial report and the actuanial methods and ley auumptions used by the actuary in determiaing certais self. insurance liabilities. We analyzed the key asumptions underlying the actaaral estimates by evaluating the reported claims and claims payments. We involved actoarial professionals with ipecial. ired skills and bowledge, wbo assisted in - Awessing the actaarial methode used by the Coopany's third-party actuary, for consistency with generally accepted actuarial uandards and practices; - Evaluating the key asumptions by compuring to hiuorical data, and - Developing an independent actuarial range of certain self-insarance liablities, hased on the Company's underlying hisorieal paid and incurred losi deta, and comparing the raseg to the Company's estimated liabilities. Debt We record any premiums of discounts associated with an itvaance of long-term debt as a direct addition or deduction to the carrying value of the related senice notes. We also recoed debt issuance costs associafed with an issuance of long-term debe as a ditect deduction to the carrying value of the related veojoe notes. Premium, discount, and debt issuance costs are amortirnd over the term of the revpective notes using the effective interest rase method. Insurance We are self-insured for certain lonses relased to general liability (including product lability), worker' compensation, employee group medical, and automobile claims. We recognize the expected ultimate cost for claims incurred (undiscounsed) at the balance theet dase as a liabiliny. The expected ultimate cost for claims incurred is estimated based upon analyus of historical data and actuarial estimates. Our self-insurznce liabilities, which are included in accrued salaries and related expenses, otber accrued expenves and other long termi liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, were $1.3 billice at February 2, 2020 and February 3, 2019. We also maintain network security asd privacy liahility insurance coverege to liast cur exposure to losses sach as those that may be casused by a significant comptomise or beeach of our data security. Insurance-related expenses are included in SGEA Treasury Stock Treasury stock is reflected as a reduction of stockholden' equity at cost Wo use the weighted-average purchase cost to determine the cost of treasury stock that is reissued, if amy Net Sales On Jantary 29,2018 , we adopted the new revenve recogniben guidance pet ASU No, 2014-09 uning the modified retrospective transition method, which requires that we recognixe revenue differently pre- and post-adoption. Fical 2018 and Sabseqwent Friods. We recognize sevenue, net of expected returns and sales ax, at the time the customer takes possession of merchandise or when a service is perforaied. The liability for sales returns, including the impact to grovi profit, is estimated based on historical return levels and recognized af the tansactioe price. We also recognize a returt ssset, and corresponding adjustment to cost of sales, for our right to recover the goods returned by the cusiomer, measured at the former carrying amount of the goods, less any expected recovery cost. At each finuncial reporting date, we assess our estimates of expected retarns, refund liabilities, aod return assets. Net sales inclede services revenue generated through a variety of installation, home mainteaance, and professional service programs. In these programs, the customer selects and purchases material for a project, and we provide or arrange for professional installation. These programs are offered through our stoeres, online, and in home sales programs. Under certain programs, when we provide or arrange for the installation of a project and the subcontractor provides material as part of the intallasion, both the material and labor are included in services revenue. We recogaize this revenue when the service for the custoener is complete, which is pot materially different from recognizing the revenue over the service period as the substantial majority of our services are completed within one week. For product sold in stores or online, payment is typically due at the point of sale. For services, puyment in full is doe upon completion of the job. When we receive payment from customers before the customer has taken possession of the merchandise or the service has been performed, the amount received is reconded as deferred revenue untal the sale of service is complete.
