   This subtopic governs how a time-share seller accounts for other expenses of time-sharing activities — chiefly selling and marketing costs and subsidies of the owners association. The core rule is that all costs incurred to sell time-sharing intervals are expensed as incurred unless they qualify for capitalization as costs to obtain a contract under ASC 340-40-25-1 through 25-4, and seller payments of dues, maintenance fees, or subsidies of owners association losses are likewise expensed as incurred.
