all of their numbers would have to be adjusted from the top down if that were the case.. somebody here who knows fasb might want to address that... if however, they booked some interest income off the float while holding the taxes.. but that would not go on the top line before COGS. never mind.. we're beyond the point now. AC will show up and address it soon.
