Capitalized Contract Costs
The Company incurs certain direct and incremental sales commissions costs in order to obtain hotel franchise and management contracts. Such costs are capitalized and subsequently amortized beginning upon hotel opening over the first non-cancellable period of the agreement. In the event an agreement is terminated prior to the end of the first non-cancellable period, any unamortized cost is immediately expensed. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, capitalized contract costs were $30 million and $24 million, respectively, of which $7 million and $8 million, respectively, were included in other current assets, and $23 million and $16 million, respectively, were included in other non-current assets on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
